Jojic goddamn

 

[Tc91]

:looool can someone make a face out of the guy on the left? Shame the scoreboard is there

 

[GorillaJu]

LVG has started his United Career by breaking a record.

Swansea had never won at OT before.

Not in the league, but they did win there in the FA cup last year. Very similar circumstances in the game.

 

[Vivalaraza]

Playing style looked too much like last season. Only Adnan, Jones and Herrera were ok.

Jones was rubbish. Smalling and Blackett both played better than him.

 

[Maddox]

Beating us to top 4 you say?

 

[longdi]

what is moyes view on the game?

 

[KidA Seven]

If it wasn't Rooney, it would have hit the defender just behind him really. Also Januzaj has been poor yet again, all hype.

No he wasn't. Did you only watch the last 20 minutes when they switched him to the left wing?

 

[Perfect Blue]

lol United. Should be another great season.

 

[Meier]

Elbows should be within the FA's post-game reviewal+punishment remit. And I'm aware that our players have thrown a few in their time as well

MLS reviews every game after to hand out these kinds of cards (and to punish dives) retroactively.

Fellaini at Pulis' Stoke would have been a terror. So much hoofball at the end there.

 

[Mr Cola]

Great game from Swansea, well done.

We HAVE to sign players, it is so obvious come in ffs. I'm confident if we do and given time we will come good, but that was so dire.

Best thing that comes out of this game is that we dont get a false sense of hope, imagine if we scraped a draw or a win with this lot, we could kid ourselves that we are ok for the future. This HAS to send a message and if it sends that message and we do something about it this could be the best result of our season.

Alternately we have 2 weeks left in the window and we are now at the subject of every seller in the market, we will be milked.

 

[T-Rex.]

the moyesiah lives on

 

[Tim the Wiz]

Need to get this defence sorted. Mata was disappointing too.

Chicharito is done though. Goodnight, sweet prince. <3

 

[Milchmonster]

Kirch is back to being shit again

Well, it's been a nice 3 weeks

 

[GQman2121]

I'm a soccer noob and trying to get into it (Still picking a team to bandwagon) is it typical for managers to shake hands of fans after games, or is it because this one's new?

OT is unique in that the tunnel to the dressing room is in the SW corner and not in between the benches. So you do have to pass by the fans at Old Trafford.

 

[whatsinaname]

Man Utd should buy Song. Barca might let him go for the right price.

 

[everthustodeadbeats]

Fellaini behaving like a cunt with his elbows, Ashley Young returning to normal awful play from his promising preseason while birdshit flies into his mouth. Van Gaal loses.

What a great start to the PL!

 

[Go_Ly_Dow]

Di Maria and Vidal

Shoot Fellaini and Young now.

Fellaini on for Herrera was sickening. Our midfield play went down from average to utter shite soon as that happened

 

[Vivalaraza]

Need to get this defence sorted. Mata was disappointing too.

Chicharito is done, though. Goodnight, sweet prince. <3

He neglected all his defensive duties at a striker in that formation. Was glad he came off.

 

[Infernostew]

I knew there would be problems when I saw that starting back 3... ffs. How did we not at least sign some utility players this summer... oh yeah, fuck woodward

 

[Broder Salsa]

No he wasn't. Did you only watch the last 20 minutes when they switched him to the left wing?

Watched it all m8. Never any real end product and often making bad decisions, even Nani got angry with him.

 

[Clegg]

Everyone under performed this afternoon. But there are certain players who've let us down so often that they simple have to go. Looking at Young an Nani esp. No one will buy them tho.

 

[Tubie]

So did Gaal really think he could make Moyes United into a good team?

Better hurry and buy Vidal and Di Maria.

 

[Jimmyfenix]

Good start for celtic.

6-1 win over Dundee United. Maribor will be a tough game though.

 

[Totakeke]

The first half was okay with some promising plays, but that was a horrid ending degenerating into hoofball. Both of the goals were too soft, better attacking teams going to rip this team apart.

As for the extra time, you guys obviously weren't watching the match. Half of the extra time was spent on treating an injury.

 

[Niven]

Leicester gonna win today!!

 

[Sanjay]

It never ends.

 

[Hixx]

So nervous. Got to win today, can't start another season poorly - surely the Dutch mastermind won't lose two in a row next week?

 

[Arnie]

Herrera was gash.

Jones was gash.

Mata was pungent gash.

 

[Mr Cola]

More worrying is we spent an entire preseason playing a formation that we changed at half time, all that work counted for nothing. So we are in a position where either we buy to make the formation work, or revert and buy for the old formation which we havent been practicing.

 

[Coldnoodle]

You have my sword today Scum.

SPURS WILL PREVAIL

 

[ShogunX]

Ki is a better player than Herrera.

 

[Salvadora]

United needs more game changing players, not dross like young/Nani/Chicha. Di Maria is available.

I don't even blame the tatics, you also need better quality players in the middle if you want to play that system.

Is he?

Sure, he's for sale, but I can't imagine Di Maria would want to join a team lingering in mid-table without Champions League football and a very poor squad. The only thing they have is money.

 

[ATF487]

Lovely way to start the season. A rooney goal for my fantasy team and a united loss

 

[Fry]

Lol

 

[Tegris]

#GAALOUT

Already beating Sviat 8-0* in the Fantasy head-to-head league too, cheers Wayne.

Spoiler

None of his squad have played yet...

 

[Vivalaraza]

Is he?

Sure, he's for sale, but I can't imagine Di Maria would want to join a team lingering in mid-table without Champions League football and a very poor squad. The only thing they have is money.

:lol

 

[Mr Cola]

Cant wait to see what Gaal says

 

[K1LLER7]

Adnan was our best player, just due to the fact that he actually runs at players and makes things happen. No idea why they switched him at the end and stopped passing him the ball.

 

[Horseress]

Play of the match

 

[British Monsoon]

A typically Sam-esque line-up today - was hoping Valencia would start, but he's still not at full fitness apparently. Excited to see how Wile E. Kouyate does, though. Come on you Irons!

 

[Jack cw]

I see Gahl doing a Bayern Munich 2009 with United now.

 

[Infernostew]

Herrera was gash.

Jones was gash.

Mata was pungent gash.

Uhh wat? Both were two of the better players on the pitch today. Agreed about Mata tho.

 

[Perfect Blue]

Is he?

Sure, he's for sale, but I can't imagine Di Maria would want to join a team lingering in mid-table without Champions League football and a very poor squad. The only thing they have is money.

The same could be said about PSG and look what happened there. Money is all that matters.

 

[3Sixty]

Herrera was gash.

Jones was gash.

Mata was pungent gash.

Seriously.

Why are people saying The Prospect played well.

 

[L1NETT]

Christ the Bescot is such a hole

Good luck to the 3 o'clock teams

 

[Jarnet87]

Hernandez and Rooney can't work with them both playing at striker. Hernandez has to stretch the defense so Rooney can occupy the created space. They get in each others way, just like what happens when Rooney plays with RVP. Welbeck is the best option because he'll drift and open space others wont. Rooney needs to be the lone man otherwise. Why no Shinji, we needed creativity and we fucking throw on Fellaini, a player LVG publicly wants out of the club. Why will no one give Shinji a chance, please god let him go back to Dortmund.

 

[-MB-]

4 minutes turned into 6 Fucking GaalTime

Congrats to Swansea. Good début for Fabian even if he didn't have much to do.

There was an injury In injury time, thjat was why they extended it by 1.40.

 

[Salvadora]

:lol

Available =/= Available for United.

You know this.

 

[confuziz]

The same could be said about PSG and look what happened there. Money is all that matters.

That was a new project, not a sinking ship.

 

[Hixx]

We have no defenders on the bench. John O'Shea and Wes Brown play for us. Gus that's MINGING when Diakite is just whiling away his Fridays in a KFC (honestly).
