[Mr.Marston]

Are Everton the only team in the league whose fullbacks provide a proper threat? Aside from Sagna, seems like everyone in the top 8 has moved back to having fullbacks who focus much more on defending than going forward.

Even Walker seems more reluctant to me these days to abandon his position and get forward

Luke Shaw tormented us the other night.

 

[TrueBlue]

Fuck you I thought Utd had equalised then

He doesn't support United.

Spoiler

Does he?

 

[flyover]

Fuck me I really hate head injuries in sports. It's always, always scary.

It is. That's why I stopped watching the NFL. I hated what the sport was doing to its players.

 

[GorillaJu]

Stoke had how much possession?!

40%-ish so far.

 

[Yurt]

Suicidio like in italian

Being an Espanyol supporter.

Hipoteca.

 

[Wilbur]

Absolutely nightmare first half. Everything that could have gone wrong did. Just not going to be our day today. I'll be extraordinarily surprised if we win this.

 

[Feorax]

40%-ish so far.

Oh. Saw somone post in twitter they has 63% in the first half. Was going to say, that would have been fucking shameful.

 

[K1LLER7]

We play like Stoke.

 

[Clegg]

Get super Clev on at half time and all will be well.

 

[Rad-]

Very unlucky day so far but even with bad luck we should be beating Stoke.

You're Manchester United, it's not over until the final whistle.

 

[confuziz]

But he is already on :lol

 

[KidA Seven]

I'm guessing Fletcher comes on later if we fail to have a grip on the game. I don't understand the Welbeck sub at all.

 

[Tim the Wiz]

Young still shit.

 

[Mr Cola]

We are getting thoroughly Stoked here, jesus wept when it rains it pours.

 

[Kopite]

How's Mata doing?

 

[Fergie]

Wing play is just shit.

 

[Shanks D Zoro]

Why does Italy bother with rugby???

 

[Ashes]

Kagawa not on the bench.
Januzaj not even starting.
Two central defenders off injured in the first half.
Carrick own goal.
Carrick playing central defence.
Windy as hell.
Now rooney playing in central midfield.
Welbeck on.
oh and ashley young on the left. And mata on the right.

What a mess. Should had just got fletcher in. And be done with it.

 

[King_Moc]

David Moyes desperately trying to find a hairdryer right now.

 

[K1LLER7]

Not getting the ball into Mata, Rooney or RVP enough. Everytime Mata touches the ball, he's either in his own half or stuck on the wing. Playing how Kagawa does.

This has a doicare post written all over it

 

[Tim the Wiz]

How's Mata doing?

Isolated in a static system on the wing. Looks good on the ball though.

 

[Stubo]

I'm guessing Fletcher comes on later if we fail to have a grip on the game. I don't understand the Welbeck sub at all.

The only reason which makes sense to me is that Moyes is worried about Adnan getting snapped.

...can't really blame him the way this game's gone so far.

 

[Jarnet87]

Everyone knows when it's windy as fuck you play hoof ball and air it out, common sense.

 

[Mr Cola]

How's Mata doing?

We have no control on the midfield and all they do is hoof it, he has had barely a few touches, though he did make some nice passes. Stokes only way of winning this game was through a rediculous own goal or a hoof that we fuck up and luckily for them they go it, now they can sit behind the ball for 45 minutes and make this the most boring game of the season. I genuinely dont understand why we are getting so much bad luck, this game has been rediculous.

 

[The_Hitcher89]

... do you know who our full backs are

I mean in terms of using them as genuine threats. As much as Evra and Rafael get forward, I don't consider it a primary threat.

Sunderland was a good shout (by the Sunderland fan, funnily enough )

Been really impressed by Alonso since he joined, especially since he underwhelmed at Bolton

 

[tri_willy]

united would prob play better on a 4-2-2-2 formation without the wing play

could have had these guys upfront

rooney persie
kagawa mata

[Ashes]

The list is factual. Factual I tell you.

 

[Mastadon]

Hmm Dead Island is on Games with Gold this month. Anyone played it? Worth a download?

 

[confuziz]

Why are you posting dutch things :lol

 

[Fergie]

This start of quite good then taper off for the rest of the match is a bit worrying but really unlucky today.

 

[Stubo]

rooney persie
kagawa mata

This or the often mentioned 4-2-3-1 with RVP up top with januzaj/kagawa, rooney, mata behind

 

[The_Hitcher89]

Dem tackles

Exppected Guarin to have created more chances given the furore over hs leaving

 

[King_Moc]

The first area is pretty good, but then it moves you onto other areas that are terrible. Still, if it's free, it's probably worth it for the first few hours.

Absolute shite unless you've got 3 friends to enjoy the jank with.

 

[Walshy]

Can all these results stay the same?

Pls

United will be better in any formation without wingplay. 4-3-1-2 will do good too. Hell, play Kagawa as a MC even.

 

[Shanks D Zoro]

Spurs kit makes me want to throw up.

 

[Yurt]

Why are you posting dutch things :lol

kunt u begrijpen

given the furore over hs leaving

had nothing to do with him being a good player ;p

 

[Arnie]

I think it was a fairly sensible decision to be honest. Regardless of the opposition you can't rely on a player his age and you don't want to overplay him, either. Moyes has his new signing and he has his experienced players back from injury so it makes sense to give the boy a rest.

Although as is the case with most of Moyes' managerial decisions it backfired because now he has to bring him off the bench with all this expectation on his shoulders like he's fucking Neo.

Funnily enough his career might well be paralleled with Keanu Reaves if it burns out at such a young age.

It's the Stoke City of videogames.

 

[The_Hitcher89]

Is the reliance on the wings a hangover from like 4 years ago?

 

[Labadal]

What happened to Jones?

Where is Lamela?

 

[Mr Cola]

I dont understand the Wellbeck substitution at all, i hope he proves me wrong but he is not creative and he cant shoot, we had maybe 2 chances that half and we need to control the midfield, basically Moyes has neutered Rooney and put an uncreative loaf up in CAM.

 

[K1LLER7]

Moyes knows only 4-4-1-1 and 4-2-3-1.
