Ok.If you genuinely think we deserved anything from today then you're an idiot.

Holy shit!Not really offended dear charleysurf. I just think its a bit off to call somebody a genius for expressing his/her thoughts. Perspective on humanity ? You shall love your crooked neighbour, with your crooked heart. Enjoy your weekend.
A goal kick is just as much a chance for an attack for them as it is for us, it depends who wins the ball (which probably would have been them)The last time wasting substitution when there was time for one last attack irritated me. Not that I had high hopes of getting another goal bit still. It is part of the whole feeling that we just want to avoid losing more than anything.
a bit OTT?We are just an embarrassment, a total laughing stock.
Depays is more of a forward than a winger. He's a scorer rather than a creator. We really need a creator, someone who can fire in crosses and give us an actual supply from wide.The thing is, we genuinely don't have any actual wingers. Valencia's practically a RB, Januzaj is a #10 and Di Maria plays better in midfield. Young's our only actual winger at the moment.
Perhaps Depay could be the answer?
We're a laughing stock alright. We should be where Liverpool or Everton be at now.We are just an embarrassment, a total laughing stock.
Go read some other forums. We have fat fecking sam calling us 'long ball Utd' for christ sake. Every team we play thinks they can beat us, even lower league teams. All the good that Fergie built up over 20+ years has been destroyed in 2 years under 2 buffoons.a bit OTT?
totally agreedI pop in here only occasionally these days, just to check if we're still an embarrassment. Good to see the status quo hasn't changed. Let's hope we don't start actually losing games? We were pretty shit but let's take a step back, eh?
Who the f. cares what Sam Allardyce says and think and I for one dont care what other forums think...Go read some other forums. We have fat fecking sam calling us 'long ball Utd' for christ sake.

The portmanteau!Could be misunderstanding your reaction, but how did my reaction made your day any worse ?
Well you don't care, good for you. Some of us do care.Who the f. cares what Sam Allardyce says and think and I for one dont care what other forums think...
Every team think they can beat us but there we are,still 4th. Lost 4 games despite the fact even lower league teams think they can beat us or their forums say that...
Yeah, you are OTT.
what a twat you are! GoHoly shit!
Good for you. Take a quick look at all the other forums then.Well you don't care, good for you. Some of us do care.
Depay would be up for the physical challenge, he is quite buffed for his tender age. Januzaj has the technique to pass opponents, but you could positively state that he often looked like a piece of carbon paper going against a storm in the physical challenges. Still has plenty of years ahead to improve this aspect of his game.Maybe ADM plays better as a mid but maybe he'd look good as a winger in the right system. Saying all that you're right, we lack wingers.

Or maybe he could just play players in their right position and stop being so naive tactically? If he drops Di Maria for Fellaini while keeping Rooney in midfield I'd sack him right after the match ends.Tweet

The problem with Rooney is when played as a striker he tends to still leave his position and go roaming about, so definitely wouldn't play him as a lone striker. He's one of our problems to be honest. I don't know if it's a question of the marketing side of things at United why he's being played all the time at the expense of other more capable midfielders. Getting on my nerves this, play him up top and if he doesn't keep his discipline put him on the bench.Almost everyone fit, and we're still not able to put out a half decent performance, that's why I never believe the theory that we'll be fine after players come back from injury, it's not always the case. Our problems are deeper. I think we lack a bit of direction, one that I expect should come from the manager, right now, he's not providing it.
Secondly, LVG has to make the rather simple but sensible decisions such as having Rooney up top, dropping either RVP or Falcao [I'll drop Falcao if it was up to me] and just straight up having all of Fellaini, Blind and Herrera in midfield to give us control [if he insists on a diamond]. Otherwise, drop both RVP and Falcao, go with that midfield 3, Rooney as lone striker with Januzaj and Di Maria supporting as wide forwards.
Yeah, avoid losing like I said.A goal kick is just as much a chance for an attack for them as it is for us, it depends who wins the ball (which probably would have been them)
Well at that point down to 10 men yeah. If you want to have a go at the subs, not making a couple of other changes earlier on in the second half is a much more valid route of criticism.Yeah, avoid losing like I said.
Yeah that's the way I saw it. I was really nervous about us getting something from there. In fact, it's good we have. Earlier in the season we would have definitely lost. However, I'm through with this game now. Never dwell too long on success or failure. Moving on to Burnley at home now and we will get those three points.After the Southampton game this was by far the trickiest of the next 6 in the League, if we win the next three (big if but two at home) that would be a very good return from the fixtures.
No, manager being deluded or simply stupid.So the conclusion is that the problem is now not the defence, but the two elderly strikers?
