    In fairness i think it would be unfair to single him out. Most of the teams passing was pretty bad today.

    Romero actually jumped over the ball when he tried to save it.

    The players seem so scared to be creative in attack just so dreadful in attack.

    You can't have all small players as your only players around the box all the time. City have Yaya to use his strength when they aren't able to play through, Schweinsteiger and Schneiderlin rarely get around the box and it is cutting off any creativity through the middle.

    Yeah looks that way, I wud love us (Arsenal) to sign him, with a good run of games I just think he could be class

    Just not sure why you guys don't see him as a real option

    That was a pretty frustrating result considering what happened elsewhere at the weekend. Swansea, while a good team, weren't that impressive today. Two really soft goals.

    Little created ourselves. Rooney should have had us 2-2, looking for the peno and then a dive. Really unusual decision making and had me going beserk.

    Not going to freak out about it, plenty of teams will struggle there this year, but not winning those type of matches id the difference between winning a title and not.....

    I actually thoight that Rooney was definitely impeded by Williams. And that Atkinson had an atrocious game, which is par for the course for him.

    Not that it excuses the ****e we have been serving up for nearly a year now. Andre Ayew is playing great stuff right now but if you stuck him into that side on the form he is in now he'd look like all the rest, lacking confidence and afraid to express himself. The manager is causing many of our problems here.

    Hey not a Utd fan

    Do you guys think Hernandez is underused? Do you think he could be a real option up front if given a run of games?
    Chico is a better option coming off the bench unlike that lump that is Fellaini. He isn't getting enough chances to prove he is the better option.

    Couldnt be any worse than Rooney, but he will be shipped of and Rooney will unfortunatly remain.

    i was saying as i watched it, when we got our goal, just sit back and defend. take the 0-1. the same **** as last year, wouldnt you think they would learn.

    rooney doesnt inspire confidence as a 9. as a 10, yes. we need a striker asap

    they have done the hard work in getting the goal. sit back mourinho style and defend it. if they had done that we would have won.

    rooney lies at fault. he made a poor pass for the swansea first goal.

    I've watched him for a long time and thought he was poor not average but poor.

    Held my lip because to be fair he has done well.

    We won't win the leauge with Romero in goals.

    He has always been poor enough for Argentina but he is their only real option. Who can we go for keeper wise that we can get and is available? Navas?

    You made three posts all game. All against Fellaini.

    You must be thrilled with our performances if you choose to attack Fellaini.

    Again.

    Your posts are some of the worst on this forum. Not even close.

    Fellaini is decent and is good to have in the squad. Anyone who is having problems with Fellaini at the squad needs to realize that he is the least of the problems :P

    So it's the tactics then?

    You didn't even mention the tactics. You just had a dig at Fellaini directly as usual. It's not even funny or annoying anymore. It's boring it's easy to see through.

    Yeah. I agree.

    They knew that. They bought De Bruyne anyways.

    That's the difference.

    They'll be champions in May.

    Anyone even think we'll be signing players? I hope I'm wrong but I honestly don't see anyone coming in.

    I can't understand why a striker hasn't been brought in already and if De Gea leaves why we didn't go all out for a top keeper.

    Problems in order of seriousnes

    1. LVG ''philosophy''
    2. Rooney lone striker
    3. Goalkeeper
    4. Blind center back

    3 and 4 could be switched

    let the players play with more freedom when they have the ball, no point having 70% and doing nothing with it. encourage the players to take chances like fergie used to do. if they make a mistake, no big deal, just try it again. all the players are playing within themselves.

    bring on carrick for schneiderlain when we were losing instead of bring on hernandez and going 2 up front, so frustrating.

    there is **** loads of stuff they could have doing. taking off herrera and mata 2 of our most creative players as well when we needed a goal

    And what has ANY of that got to do with Fellaini as a player? Why were you not making THOSE points all through the match?

    No. Keep hammering Fellaini regardless.
