Should have had a penalty, Fletcher missed an absolute sitter and Defoe should trust himself a bit more on his left... decent half. Panti bailed us out once with a top class save and they hit the post but it's been fairly even and drab tbh.

Tell you what, Borini's celebration is the action of a man who leads a controversial, populist, anti-establishment party.

Someone needs to show van gaal old footage of his games at Ajax or barca or bayern. Maybe he doesn't remember what it's like to play coherent attacking football. We're playing below moyes level, mind boggling.

Should probably not trust the 7-11 security cameras quite so much

The penalty was nothing, Defoe does that all the time. Makes the defender get tight and then falls down.
 
And the problem is that he seems unwilling to attempt another way, and is too stubborn to admit these players can't do it.

I really don't understand why we haven't tried the 433 that we played against City and Chelsea in any game apart from those two. We looked nicely balanced in those games and had good movement in the attacking third.

No fucking clue. City game is the best I've seen us play all season. How depressing is that?

I'm like a teacher at parent's evening.

"Louis persists in trying out strange methods to do his homework, even when he's been shown they don't work. He constantly makes references to some obscure 'philosophy' without ever explaining what he's doing. I'm not angry, just very disappointed."

It's actually mystifying. Keeping with this 3-5-2 is the equivalent of repeatedly punching yourself in the face.

Good performance from Liverpool so far.

Lucas and Henderson have been brilliant in the middle.

Sterling should have scored his 1-on-1.

Great. Now it will be 45 minutes of Jones and Rooney trying long balls towards Fellationi. And it will be Falcon's fault United don't win again. Mhmm.



Falcao for sure.

Van gaal purposely sabotaging falcon so RVP will be back. That was his only goal today
 
I thought Swansea would get something today

other than a hiding


This has the feel of a match where we're getting complacent, seemingly assuming that if we concede, we'll take the lead again. Would much prefer it if we just keep Moreno back a bit, and focus a bit more on building attacks from deep, so we don't get caught out by counters.

The only player out there that does have the ability to make quick passes and dart around is ADM but he's doing his best Özil impression out there when he's up front.

United aren't even losing. It's 0-0 and there's still plenty of time for the game to change. Think you guys are a little to quick to rush to judgment here.

QPR aren't bad at home...

:lol

They're showing that City v Arsenal game that City won 6-3 and Lightning carried on about how it could easily have gone the other way

6 fucking 3

But if anyone's going to win this it'll be QPR at this rate.

I want a new manager in the summer, Klopp Pls, he was always my number 1 choice.

The one we currently have is an ego-maniac who would rather double down on his ignorance than change for the better. We wont make top 4 at this rate and it wont matter who he brings in the summer, 3-5-2 will NEVER take off in the premier league. Its a noose around our neck, one which our manager seems intent on tightening.
 
If we don't win this then I think we're gonna have our first Van Gaal meltdown in the post match presser.

Kinda want...

Moaning!

Scum that's as balanced a post as you will see from me until full time.

I'll be using this a lot today.

I think it's more to do with the formation and style of play that has Man Utd GAF riled up.
