How many goals is that in the games between the "big teams" now. Just an unreal season where so many of the "Super Sunday" games have actually delivered real entertainment.

Looking forwards to De Gea getting plenty of praise for his performance today. Oh...
 
Fergie after the game, pretty much spot on with what others were saying.

Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson: "It's incredible for Ryan to mark his 900th game with the winning goal with the last kick of the ball - he deserves it for his service to the club. For a player to play for one club for 900 games is exceptional and it won't be done again. An amazing career and an amazing man. But we were lucky today. Norwich were the better team. The first half they put 12 crosses in and we had to defend well and the keeper was excellent. They were always in the game and we only played to our level for five or six minutes after they scored."

Jones was good. I tend to howl for our defence to close down wingers, but Norwich were crossing early and well, for the most part. If a team are determined to do that, then it's murder to stop them.
Rio did well. Some clutch work in the box. Evans was decent too.
Evra lost his man a few times. Rescued by Dave, like everyone else. Seemed more cautious than he has been recently.

Scholes put in a good 90 minutes. Carrick was pretty anonymous. Giggs wasn't flash except for the cracking winner. Nani much improved - wouldn't have hurt for him to try a shot or two.

Welbz horror show misses, but the rest of his game was top level. Chicha was ok.

Collectively, though, that was drab.

Okay but you all thought the ref was blind over this, is it so hard to believe he was blind over the goal? Granted it was an awful decision but it fucks me off when Allegri or whoever else can complain when they're horizontal with the ball, has a crowd of players in the way and won't have seen it until half time probably, but can still moan at the officials

there were zero players in the way, the ref had a clear line of sight. all i'm saying is that the juve fans were pretending like the result was fair yesterday because of that offsides decision, but now it turns out it was the correct decision. so i just congratulate juve for the shitty ref and hope that they somehow convince themselves that they have earned the scudetto if, in the end, they wind up with it.

but somehow i feel that they will still be crying about refs all season long.
 
For you streamers, there's a Sopcast one with ENG commentary and 2.5mbps at the usual place which looks better than my cable picture. Insane.
