Btw special mention for the ref who was awful. The yellow for Falcao was laughable.

I have never seen Moss ref a game well. He is quite possibly the worst in the league. Completely unable to stamp any level of authority on a game.

Today is going to be one of those horrible days where every result goes against us. I feel it in me waters.

2nd half was akin to something I'd watch on a Sunday morning on a local pitch,all kick & rush.
Our football in the first half deserved a goal or 3,still though our unbeaten run continues.

Lets jinx Chelsea,City,Arsenal and for good measure Liverpool (no threat but can't be having them winning)

If Southampton win we would be 9 points from the top, which would mean title challenge not over, and would go nicely with the earlier tweet I posted...

Absolutely agree - come on to fcuk Southampton

edgecutter · 28-12-2014 02:33PM

Very little can be said about today that hasn't been said already, but we have to look at the fact that our bench today spells out the dire situation with injuries that we have had this season.

Asking our players to play another game in so little time is unfair and when you don't have a bench to help rotate it becomes infuriating. Fellaini, Herrara, Di Maria, Blind, Rojo would have made a massive difference today.

We won't be anywhere near the title come the end of the season. Watch Chelsea steamroll Spurs.

No easy games in the league. I have been worried overtime united play.

Stoke and Southampton are tricky games, especially if we can't get players fit.

Unearthly · 28-12-2014 02:41PM

At the moment I look forward to home games, and dread away games. I don't think it will be a win v Stoke

Every team has a bogey team, just look at Chelsea when they go to Newcastle.
History does repeat.

Spurs against Chelsea is the same story.

Stats pointed to the Spurs game for us being tricky, Fergie had the same problem as did Moyes.

J. Marston · 28-12-2014 02:44PM

BT are a shower of **** too.

They completely ignore Stambouli's knee high studs up tackle on Carrick but we get 28 replays of the Rooney and Kane 50/50 in the box with comments like "Could that have been a penalty?! Oh it might have been, you know!"

QPR can be tricky at home too, they have a very good record there.

West Ham away would be very tough as well you would think.

Yeah I thought the ref didn't really give that a proper look in the first half alright.

Whatever about stamping authority on a game, it's his dubious ability to determine what is a foul and what isn't and what is a card and what isn't that I have an issue with. An ability that might come in handy considering his profession, he seems to be guessing half the time.

I also agree with he poster who said we missed Felaini today. Now we didn't think we would be saying that this time last year ! We were totally out fought in the second half when it became a scrap rather then a game of football.

As for transfer policy I'd love to bring in Vertongan. Get rid of Evans. Rojo and Vertongan first choice center haves with Jones and Smalling providing the backup and competition.

Our last 5 away games to Stoke:
2013/14 Lost 2-1
2012/13 won 2-0
2011/12 drew 1-1
2010/11 won 1-2
2009/10 won 2-0

So we have 3 wins, a draw and a loss under Moyes.

Proper performance today from the washed up yesterday's man Juan Mata. Thought he was sublime from start to finish, I'll forgive him the blast over the bar...

I feel if Rafael had of started over Valencia we would've had a more balanced attack.

Rafael was dire when he came on . Stupid and headless. IMO Valencia is ahead of him at the moment.
Mcnair was a nervous wreck anytime the ball was at his feet and kept goofing it away. Surprised he didn't start Smalling.
Should have won the game but spurs got things together at half time and contained us well in the second half

They are 9 points clear with game in hand. Would mata get near that Chelsea side.

Oh I get the humour. It's very good. The bloke got just as much abuse off utd fans but now they are making out they always backed him.

Utd get Mata for 36/37 million.

Hazard was sold for 30m + 6m-ish agents fees.

Chelsea got the better side of that alright.

Mata is back on the bench when Di Maria is fit.
