Aston Villa 1:1 Manchester United

Shark · Dec 20, 2014

I'm not worried tbh. We've enough quality to put three or four past Villa. Di Maria on the bench too.

prateik · Dec 20, 2014

What the feck Fletch.

Ham · Dec 20, 2014

I don't like watching Rooney play so far back but at least he can pass

Rooney in Paris · Dec 20, 2014

People complain about Rooney spreading it to Valencia, but technically, that's... wow.

Adam-Utd · Dec 20, 2014

Unlucky by falcao there, nice run

Señor · Dec 20, 2014

Fletcher offers nothing. I'd rather see Pereira. Is he on the bench?

Mr.Kaya · Dec 20, 2014

That ball from Rooney to Valencia

Sry if this has been clarified already, just started following the thread but why in the world is Fletcher starting ahead of Herrera? Is he injured?

He must be injured. Not even on the subs

LARulz · Dec 20, 2014

Rooney's cross passes to Valencia have been fantastic

FujiVice · Dec 20, 2014

Rooney is playing really well.

Dempsey19 · Dec 20, 2014

We've gone back to this slow tempo game with most passes going sideways/backwards

Someone just posted here that Herrera is ill. So is Fellaini.. hopefully Di Maria comes on

Exactly what I was thinking too! Everyone knows that he's a special kid, so why not give him the chance when 3(!!) of our CMs is out? And he's not even on the bench! Sigh...Nice shot by Benteke btw..

Just suprised to see Fletcher. As much as I respect the guy he was awful at the start of the season, LvG happy to play the youth defenders, would love to see what we have in midfield.

Traub · Dec 20, 2014

Would rather have Ando than Fletcher.

Avfc82 · Dec 20, 2014

Van Gaal should get Januzaj on instead of Mata and Di Maria for Fletcher. Would be a much better team then.

BenRobbins · Dec 20, 2014

Some of these long diagonals from rooney are unreal

redshanks · Dec 20, 2014

we gonna lose

NotoriousISSY · Dec 20, 2014

Too big a gap between the front two and the middle two. Mata needs to come a little deeper because we aren't playing enough forward passes to justify him sniffing out goals.

Ole's_toe_poke · Dec 20, 2014

Need to move the ball a little faster. Villa are just sitting back.

Oo0AahCantona · Dec 20, 2014

i reckon scholes spent an hour a day teaching a young rooney how to spray those balls. outstanding technique

prateik · Dec 20, 2014

Why exactly are Villa fans booing Young?

Shane88 · Dec 20, 2014

Evans is weak as fecking piss.

pseudo_canadian · Dec 20, 2014

Water is wet. We knew Fletcher would look out of place.

He'll be off before half time if he doesn't improve. Absolute shite.

Any newbie who manages to post in this thread without being a whiney, moany little child for the duration of this match gets a free like.

Yes I wont moan or whine even though we are losing and have no midfield and no pace in the side today. But I still stay positive and believe we will win. Do I get a like lol?

He is ill. Hopefully. If injured then that 2nd lot of training yesterday has done for him, because he looked fine in the first.

If it's not damn injuries it's now a dose of something

Sid234 · Dec 20, 2014

We really need a DM in there, and not have Rooney sit deep

Shark · Dec 20, 2014

Now now..

girish · Dec 20, 2014

Darren out McNair in and Carrick. in the middle please...

prarek · Dec 20, 2014

It seems we are back to floating the ball to our wingers. Rooney is always looking for Valencia and Young. Mix it up every now and then. Why you no go middle?

marlowe78 · Dec 20, 2014

Valencia that was just horrible

Ham · Dec 20, 2014

Although i agree about youth, playing someone who is primarily a CAM and very inexperienced over a experienced player like Fletcher is probably worse in. Now in hindsight maybe not but you can see why LVG did put fletch in

Rooney in Paris · Dec 20, 2014

When you're getting skinned by Cissokho...

SJM · Dec 20, 2014

Evans definitely at fault for the goal (albeit a well-taken goal) but there's still time. We should hopefully make use of the greater possession eventually.

Kakeru · Dec 20, 2014

Evans being a fecking pussy against Agbonlahor again.

Out of place? That's a very soft analysis , he has been terrible.

BringNaniBack · Dec 20, 2014

We need Smalling back!

Rozay · Dec 20, 2014

We're all over Villa. The only issue is that we have 2 players out there who probably shouldn't be at the club in Evans and Fletcher, and it's costing us.

Can't we just play Michael Carrick in fecking midfield?!

Oo0AahCantona · Dec 20, 2014

Yea it has to be said, it should come as no surprise that evans and fletcher have been terrible, because frankly they are terrible. lets just hope our matchwinners can carry this through.
