Damn I want Fellaini at Chelsea.
Doicare would be suicidal.
Regarding the stats, Liverpool fans should take some heart that for long periods Liverpool were actually decent, could have had the game won in the first half hour. But a couple of defensive howlers destroyed any hopes.
Certainly not a terrible performance like Hitcher said. Big disappointment though. I'd hope to see Henderson and Coates start the next game for Skrtel & Allen/Gerrard.

Stained an otherwise good performance with some shit defending at the end.
Our football was really good today though. Moved the ball fast and incisively.
De Gea had to make far too many saves though, just let players get a run at us through the centre of the park.
Good win. Van Persie class again, Rooney was pretty good his finishing aside. Also Jones looked pretty solid, Rafael still the #1 at RB obv but it's good to have Jones back.

Good win but shame about the conceded goal. 3 goals is nice, was expecting a scrappy 1-0.
Don't forget the return of El Capitan

Yeah it was great to see.
Would have loved a couple of booming headers from him to make me feel better about our defence but he just seemed to be looking at everybody thinking "wtf happened here?!".

Sorry, but that was a terrible performance imo. Guzan didn't have to make a single save where you could say 'he did well there'
Yup. ClevGod maintained form, actually muscled some players off the ball, moved it around smartly, got a nice goal. Carrick was good. Young was very good at times.
We need that vicious, clean, energetic CM signing so badly. Ando is broken, Powell is not ready, don't make me fucken laugh about Tunnicliffe, Petrucci ???
It needs to be an experienced bloke who can kick it miles, run fucking quick, and fight. And also wingers. At least one, ffs. I'm beginning to fear Valencia's head has gone.
Our injuries fucked us over today, our best left back, our best midfielder and then our best striker had to go off while Man United had a full squad
Also the stats say we should have at least drawn, maybe even won
Denilson!!!

Sadly the answer from within was Pogba. Have every confidence he was capable to do the job for us, at least to a decent standard for now. We messed it up big time.
Nobody at the club apart from Anderson can do that for us and we know what the situation with Anderson is and most likely will continue to be.
I really think Strootman is perfect for this role. But as confuziz keeps telling us it won't be happening in January. I don't think we can nor will we try to prize Wanyama way in Jan so I guess we wait til' the summer.
Get Wilshere and play him in that position. He's just a young Scholes in disguise, anyway.
And with that, I'm off to the Cafe for an all day breakfast.
He even has the tackling.

If Henderson doesn't start our next game, he should be looking to leave
Has Johnson been a bit shit since joining Sunderland? It seems like it to me. Shame.

Football is bread
Your stats are wrong, United had 62% possession:Our injuries fucked us over today, our best left back, our best midfielder and then our best striker had to go off while Man United had a full squad
Also the stats say we should have at least drawn, maybe even won
And you also forgot the most important stat of them all.... Clevgod scored which means even if United concede 10 goals they still win, Clevgod goals are worth 11.
It's alright Arnie I know you're drunk right now <3
Forza Bojan?
Got a fine goal last game.

Sal - lets not give up on Valencia just yet. He can very easily turn his form around. He was a little better doing moving forwards but he was delaying his delivery far too long.
Luckily Young has found some form and has actually done very well the last 3 weeks.
We're away at Swansea next right? That will be tough.

Life would be so much more simple if I supported Man Utd
