Cleverly would've had a better game than park. This game could've easily been 3/4-0 to city.

Mancini keeping his cool, Newcastle have to get a result.

 

[Feorax]

What has happened to Jones?

He was great until March and then he just turned to shit.

I still think he'll be great one day but he has been very disappointing this year. Rafael should have started this game.

It's the same problem we've had with Henderson. Thankfully, Hendo has become a bit of a beast in CM recently, but young players player out of position will always have difficulty adapting in high pressure environments like the PL.

FWIW, Jones has always looked most at ease in a holding role in the centre of midfield.

 

[Gareth Bale]

:lol Mancini

 

[Yen]

Can't wait to hear what Fergie has to say.

As if he's going to face the press. And if he does, he'll be spouting Dalglish-esque conspiracies.

 

[FootballFan]

I know you're on the wind up but you could at least try a little harder.

We were missing Vidic and Evans from our starting line-up and thats it.

Hardly a significant amount.

Whyd you do that! Now he is going to post how Rafael, Owen, Berbatov, Anderson, etc are all starting line-up players.

The season isn't over yet guys..

 

[Jeff Albertson]

Is that you Anfield Cat?

Sssshhh let me have this one

Must be something in the Scottish, um, water.

 

[dc89]

When did i say that in todays game City didn't outplay United? City won the game, United as per usual were without a significant amount of players.

It's getting boring now dude, United have steam rolled teams with big players missing. They just didn't turn up tonight, or not enough of them did.

 

[WJD]

Even though City were better than us all game, it's still fucking frustrating that it was all decided by a set piece.

 

[Kyoufu]

We haven't beaten City in 4 games? Fuck.

Fuck.

 

[Vivalaraza]

This.

I'm fine with the loss, they more than earnt it. But damn basics man.

 

[Meier]

Not to argue against someone rubbishing doicare, but this is exaggerated tosh as well.

Perhaps. Impossible to say. We lost or drew matches we probably would have won when Lescott and Kompany were out due to injury (and suspension in Kompany's case). Yaya's time away certainly played a significant role on the FA Cup and Carling Cup matches -- Silva got absolutely wore out while he was away and it had a lasting effect beyond that. Hopefully we never have to rely on Savic again.

 

[LegoArmo]

I'm going to pray to my lord Pardew before bed tonight.

 

[Clegg]

Whyd you do that! Now he is going to post how Rafael, Owen, Berbatov, Anderson, etc are all starting line-up players.

The season isn't over yet guys..

Rafael is the only player in your list that would actually be considered a starter. He was fit but SAF didn't pick him to start.

Owen is old and crap, Berba should be playing but he's not getting picked and Anderson is just shite.

 

[dc89]

Oh god. Typical Fergie moment.

 

[TeegsD]

SPORTING! 2-1!

Thank fuck

 

[LFMartins86]

2-1!! Wolfswinkel!!!

 

[Salvadora]

Oh god. Typical Fergie moment.

What happened?

 

[offshore]

Did Fergie just say that Mancini was badgering the referee :lol :lol

He's one to talk.

 

[K1LLER7]

Fergie looks pissed yet calm. Hope he realises he got it wrong.

 

[Zabojnik]

very disappointing performance. fergie's team selection didn't pay off but in truth there were a load of poor performances too.

congrats to city, so much pressure and they did the job efficiently. title isn't over but you can't begrudge the league for a team that's outplayed us twice.

Which is why I was surpised today when I found out that in PL that's not the first deciding factor if two teams finish with the same amount of points. Goal difference comes first, really? It makes no sense to me.

 

[Yen]

Must be something in the Scottish, um, water.

"Mancini was badgering the refs" and "can have no complaints tonight." Close enough.

 

[Salvadora]

It makes sense to me.

 

[doicare]

If only City and Barcelona didn't have so much money, Arsenal would of won this year..

Great arguement, please come again.

You're proven wrong because we bottled it against Wigan, Everton and City with almost no injuries. You're just being salty as fuck and it's embarrassing.

Lol you have no clue, 3 games where actually United DID have significant injuries with Vidic, Fletcher, Evans (against City), Anderson + others, doesn't some how erase the bullshit of United being fucked over by having half there first choice team out injured on and off for most of the season.

Every team gets injuries, get the fuck over it.

No, not all teams have half there first choice team and reserves out injured for most of the season.

You are surely trolling now?

I know it's painful to admit, but look at the results this season, 6-1 and 1-0. Blame the injuries, the Sikh's money, or anything else all you like, but the results back up their cause this season.

You can't argue these stupid points on here, no-one's going to listen to you. Take defeat like a man and stop building walls up to protect against the failures of the team this season.

8 points. 8. Points. I am livid. It's not over yet though, so you should probably quiet down until it is.

United have beaten City twice this season as well. Both times United beat them they had more of there first choice team available compared to City...... When City beat United they had more first choice team players availble then United did...... strange how that works.

 

[Vivalaraza]

Fergie just can't help himself.

His team selection tonight was horrid.

This is different anywhere else?

 

[WJD]

positive:

this might nudge Fergie in the general direction of the clubs piggy bank in the summer

might.

 

[Wilbur]

Fair play to say no complaints.

Thing is, Smalling and Jones will learn. Why then, does Evra either spend all his time in a centre back position or a left wing one? Fucking sick of his shite

 

[Kyoufu]

United have beaten City twice this season as well. Both times United beat them they had more of there first choice team available compared to City...... When City beat United they had more first choice team players availble then United did...... strange how that works.

You barely beat City even when Kompany was sent off in the first 10 minutes......

 

[dc89]

Haha my dads just uploaded a picture to Facebook of him and Liam Gallagher! Both look happy!

 

[Clegg]

We does everyone take doicare so seriously?

He only ever posts when United lose.

He's either an ABU or Kermit

 

[Vivalaraza]

Let's face it. The team changed a lot in the summer. It's youthful with inexperienced players and the loss of Vidic really should have been terminal. There are positives to take from the season regardless.

But when you're 8 points clear, to concede that. Kill me now.

 

[RibbedHero]

This is different anywhere else?

Spain and Italy use H2H.

 

[LegoArmo]

Positives: At least Tevez didn't score!

 

[Freewheelin']

You barely beat City even when Kompany was sent off in the first 10 minutes......

And in the Community Shield, which is basically a pointless friendly...

 

[MaritalWheat]

What a shit game to decide the league. Park was fucking awful. I was at the pub and had to leave for class right after...did Fergie or Mancini comment about each other post match besides that "badgering the ref" posted above?

 

[dc89]

What happened?

When asked about what happened with Mancini:

'Mancini was badgering the 4th official and linesman all game. And when I come out he starts. Only the other week he was complaint about referee's, well he can have no complaints tonight.'

Or something very close to it.

 

[Baconsaurus Rex]

Spain and Italy use H2H.

Really? I'm used to the Premier League and the Eredevisie which use goal difference so I didn't know that.

 

[doicare]

Shame one was a pre-season pointless affair and the other culminated in the DIRK KUYT SHOW.

And that proves me wrong how?

 

[FootballFan]

This is different anywhere else?

Serie A and La Liga is head to head I believe, not goal-difference.

I don't see anything wrong with that, he's right, there was no dodgy decisions, really.

Fergie seemed calm.

 

[Kyoufu]

Mancini said the sideline stuff was just heat of the moment, nothing more.

There's Euros soon... Expect at least a few meltdowns from doicare when England fucks it all up again.

 

[Zabojnik]

This is different anywhere else?

It is in Serie A at least. If Juve and Milan finish with the same amount of points, obvisouly you'll look at how they played with each other to determine which is the better team. Makes perfect sense to me.

 

[Gareth Bale]

This was a the best gameweek of football in a while. Some cracking games in the past 7 days.

 

[Clegg]

Again I have to ask what was the point of playing Park and Giggs?

Both have been brilliant servants of United but they are clearly over the hill. Giggs only looks good when he comes on with 20 minutes to go and Park doesn't have the same zip that he used to.

I hope that these Kagawa rumours are true because we need something different.

doicare about England?

Aly Cissokho/Criscito for Evra, might be a good start...

 

[Bo-Locks]

Fergie was fine. He was calm and quite level headed, he obviously put his piece of biased spin on it like every manager does, but right now Mancini and Fergie will be sharing a bottle of wine and talking about the family.

 

[Meier]

Post it! Blur out your dad's face if you're nervous about that sort of thing or whatever.
