This is why Rooney is a bad choice of captain. When we're playing badly or losing, Rooney doesn't motivate his players as his head dropsConfidence we dont have any.So. What's the deal with our corner taking? Or passing for that matter while we're whinging.Di Maria, Rooney and Mata all in the side and we somehow still have Young taking corners."These two don't need to prove themselves."
Yes they fecking do!
FFS this is just rubbishYoung looks stunned that his playing in the same side as Di Maria
Even Damien fecking Duff looks amazing against us.Why is Ashley Young taking our corners?
this.Rooney to cross the corners, feck off Young, stay in our midfield.Van Persie looks extremely match unfit. Rooney has been dogshiteVan Persie looks like he's moving in slow motion, permanently crocked that one now I tell ya..Good attack there. God, these referees don't particularly like us, do they? Not a single fifty-fifty situation has gone our way.
Thanks Doc.We are really easy to defend. Just put 3 mans up front to press up and we brake apart.3 of our players have been nutmegged today
Two of which being some of our best playersThis is incredibly frustrating to watch.
All we seem to do is pass the ball around at the back. FFS.That movie leading up to the Di Maria shot, that's the first time I've seen us tackle in midfield and convert it to a chance in seconds ever since SAF retired. It didn't end as I wanted it to, but god I've missed it.
Hope to see at least 20 more chances like that. I mean it didn't look all that hard, did it? Just press, pass to a playmaker and have him try and pass it round the defence. Enough with this right wing to left wing to De Gea to Fletcher to Blackett to Rooney and lose the ball shite.Di Maria is the only guy who tries to dribbleDefenders have got nobody to pass too as the midfielders are not prepared to come for the ballAll 7 subs appear sitting on the bench, why isn't anyone warming up? Fecks sake.
I don't seem to get the Rooney hate when Mata and RvP have been far worse .....cmon we need a goal.FFS. It's either long balls, sideway passes or back passes from defenders. fecking useless.We must have some of the worst corners possible. How exactly is anyone meant to score from a ball floated so high.Think we will still get the win, despite the football at the moment.Di Maria goes to take the corner....and they say no give it to Young WTF.Anyone got a stream for iphone?
Only to annoy.
No idea either, honestly.We aren't finishing top 4 are we. Football is miles away from being good enough
Because all the people we would want in ... are injured or transfers not finished.I hate how all our games are TV games at times other teams don't play so all the rival fans can see how shite we are.
Why not play Rooney in Fletcher's position just for today's game?Fletcher has absolutely no positional sense or awareness at all. He's like the anti-Scholes.I take better corner kicks than Ashley Young. Both feet!!Glad Mata has gone a bit deep.Things have to get worse here before they will get better. LVG is sticking with this system so as soon as you accept that you'll see things differently. We just all have to suffer the performances for these next few months.
Yep. He came out during/before the world cup and said something like he's been playing every single game for the past 5/6 years in pain - it doesn't half show.We are so crap to watch when we have the ball. So slow on the ball and no movement at all- Status
