So the conclusion is that the problem is now not the defence, but the two elderly strikers?
The defence has been a red herring since Leicester.

Thanks, I worked hard on it.Poodle on a stick. What a genius you are.
If DeGea hadn't been outstanding we could have been miles behind before they ever scored their first.We were pretty abject, and stole a point today. That being said, if RvP and Falcao had their shooting boots on (does anybody know where they keep them?) we might have actually won the game.

Utter shite to watch getting depressing now not even caring if we win the league. I would just like to see some good football
Don't see how RvP gets a pass and Falcao gets slaughtered
Except that we all know that won't happen with LVG. If Falcao is benched then he'll probably play Di Maria or Fellaini up front with Rooney still in midfield and Herrera still on the bench. It's called balance according to LVG.Rooney needs to play striker so Van Gaal can work in the likes of Fellaini, Herrera, et al into the midfield. Falcao can be benched until further notice.
For all the negativity, it wasn't all that bad a result all things considered. CIty and Liverpool both lost there remember, and Arsenal just about scraped a win.
What did he say?Yeah I think Carragher got it spot on with his assessment of us atm.
It was a missed opportunity. It was the perfect game to get a win and get to 3rd and look onwards and upwards. Instead we are still stuck in 4th and have to nervously look below in the table.
LvG's stubborness is pissing me off. I don't really understand the utter stupidity in playing Rooney in the midfield. After we scored the goal I couldn't even celebrate. Yes West Ham away is a tough game but I am very unhappy that given the stakes, we failed to produce a performance.
With Spurs,Arsenal and Liverpool in a decent run of form currently, I am starting to get afraid on what could happen if LvG continues to be as stubborn as he has been.
Just finished watching an hour or so ago. Let me ask this...can we put Phil Jones back on taking corners? At least if he sucks at it he's not really expected to be good. Watching ADM and Rooney put in sorry crosses is pretty infuriating. Not to sound too gloom and doom but I just cannot understand how a side with RvP, Falcao, Di Maria, and Rooney are so dire. Blind and Januzaj seemed to be the only ones putting in passes that led to something. Something is bad wrong when our answer to losing is putting in Fellaini in the last 20 minutes or so to put his head on the ball. Am I mistaken or was that really the only change LvG made until putting in Smalling for 10 seconds?

Falcao haters have come out. Let's be frank this guy is a goal scorer and has proved that in recent weeks. Apart from the one chance we are not creating jack shit for him-.
Amazing. Do people not get tired of repeating the same old crap every week?
Valencia cannot cross his legs
What did he say?
Falcao haters have come out. Let's be frank this guy is a goal scorer and has proved that in recent weeks. Apart from the one chance we are not creating jack shit for him- it is the style of the team that is the problem. Both strikers playing with back to goal- in the first half our midfield was non existent. Valencia cannot cross his legs and all the players seem subdued like they are not enabled to express themselves.
Another overhaul needed- Herrera deserves a chance, would like to see Schneiderlin, Shawcross Coleman and Bale in the summer, maybe a cheeky bid for Pedro from Barcelona.
Ship out Nani, Evans Chico, RVP, Valencia to start with.
the point is....
both sides are right.... we create next to nothing but yes, Falcao should've burried that chance.
Van Persie had at least one equally good chance.
Why Nani? Put him on the right of a 433 or 4231. Hes better than what we currently have there.
We have lost our identity over the last 18 months, even Dave Sexton, managed a more entertaining product, someone should remind LVG, that his team are playing in the ENGLISH PREMIER LEAGUE!
