Surely, right, surely?
At 2-0 or something I thought oh ffs we are gonna lose and Moyes is just gonna keep playing them to play it safe yadda yadda.
But after that, some of those guys cant be in the team for the next couple of games, surely not.
Rio, Smalling, Young, Valencia all out, at the absolute least.

2-1 ronaldo
Why won't Moyes rotate?
United have the luxury of having one the the deepest squads in the league
Wait Arsenal scored all their goals from set plays today? Against Stoke?
That's a sackable offense for Hughes.
Only 1 conceded. The goals will come, as long as we keep on notching clean sheets we can win any match.

Benzema... Wtf.
And 1 goal conceded. Tightest defence in the league, somehow...
Wow at the City - United score. I went out to cut the grass at half time when it was 2-0. More of the same domination from City in the second half?
Moyes seemed to talk a lot about sticking to the familiar faces to help get them through the difficult early fixtures. They haven't helped at all. Surely Young has to be further down the pecking order now. Give some of the newer players a chance even if they don't have the experience. Gotta be better than Young in the starting line up.

Lloris is killing me with these edge of the box 'saves'.
He's had a bit of a Gomes 09/10 so far this season. Keeping clean sheets but doing some crazy shit.
They have the biggest squad of top-6, 27 players including 3rd choice keeper. City 23, Chelsea 25, Liverpool 24 etc. And Redcafe seems fuming that Kagawa, Nani and Chicarito aren't playing, then you have a big lot of players behind them too.

Benzema what are you doing?

Maybe you meant this but, he touched it outside of the penalty box and apparently should've gotten a red (?) according to my commentators.
He did but at full speed it was a very close call. Slightly alarming that he handled outside of the box last week too.
because it doesn't make any sense that Young and Valencia get to play. they should be lower on the list than Zaha and Januzaj on performance ffs. start playing Nani and Kagawa.

The common excuse is that they aren't 'match fit', but if they never get minutes they're always going to be in the same position.
If you make only one substitution at 4-0 down, questions need to be asked. Why the fuck is Ashley Young starting games.
Heavens above not sure he's that mad
At least Lloris has been reliable at his shot stopping and set-piece defence, you never used to need a fan in the Summer at WHL thanks to Gomes flapping at every cross & shot.
I get that Hugo wants to prove he's the best sweeper in the world but this is too much...

Yeah, the commentators kept banging on about how this was definitely outside the box. Looked on the line to me, but if it was outside then it must have been incredibly close.
I love thread like these! The title got changed.
I pirated 360 games and MS banned me, what the hell?

Moyes said something about wanting a consistent side to start the season. Can understand some of the reasoning behind that but it's been a bit excessive. Rio and Vidic playing 3 games in a week for example is fairly silly...that's just a fitness/injury thing not even performance related.
I wasn't that bothered about him not making changes today though, once it got to 4-0 I mean. Those guys fucked up, now take the battering.
No idea if that's why Moyes left them out there, but I wasn't bothered at that stage. No use putting the others on to chase a lost game and get pissed on.
Positives from the first half
+++ Illarra - he's comfortable with the ball, has good vision and has made a lot of great passes so far
+ Di Maria - work rate is probably #1 in the field today. Some good passes
+- Nacho - has been okay tonight
Negatives
-------------- everything else, especially Benz

Surely he's more or less impossible to sell, kind of like City with Bridge, Kolo Toure etc? His wages are insane.
Looked like one meter outside to me in the replay but apparently the linesman had his sight crossed by the attacker.

Eh, his display today could easily have been a nightmare. Almost sent off, conceded a corner with a shit touch, got lucky and had a goal chalked off for obstruction. He's great but he's one of those keepers who can drop a clanger when he's throwing himself around.
Still, he's our best player by a mile.

Oh I plan on doing just that.
Like a phoenix rising from the ashes, Arsenal have returned. We're gonna win the league.
I get the consistency thing a wee bit, but I don't think it's particularly fair to let players like Nani, Kagawa, Evans and Chico rot on the bench. Especially when players on the pitch are doing so badly.
Yeah he's certainly not be perfect for either club or country this season but he's saved our defence a handful of times already. Dawson in particular would be under greater scrutiny if it wasn't for Hugo's speed off the line.

Seriously. I think Evans-Vidic might be the better partnership.
And as much as I derided his substitution, Cleverley-Carrick looked the better midfield combination. Fellaini was really average today; he kept losing Toure.
Well, he can't keep starting. Even I wouldn't start him FM. :lol
Stick him on the bench or rot in reserves. He doesn't deserve a starting spot. Playing Kagawa as an AML will be more fruitful than having Young on the pitch.
