So wait, all three are supposed to stand around 16 yard box and wait for the ball that's not going to come to them then? I do understand that our midfield is non-existant to some extent, fair enough, but if I was a player and starved for balls (no) whole game I'd fecking move my ass to collect it and start something.

Falcao has dropped deep on a number of occasions but usually it's Wilson doing it, they both can't go. We don't want Falcao collecting the ball 40 yards out what he's going to do with it? He isn't suarez he can't run past people.

We're playing Cambridge ffs we should be able to win with half the players out of position.

Whether Fellaini or Di Maria are central shouldn't make a difference

I agree but this line up is a joke. Play a back 4 then bench both full backs. Play 2 defensive midfielders and expect service to a front 2? Why even buy Falcao to play in a front 2?

Cambridge being compared to Chelsea?

Style of play not the team....

Man-United said:
Ahh, so you are on of those who defend Di Maria in everything he does?

Fellaini is playing better than ADM to you?

Offside said:
To be fair they constantly broke down Chelsea it was just would never go in. They had chance after chance.

Not really, the whole 'Barcelona need a plan B' stuff came out mostly because Chelsea used to be able to keep them out.

jem · Jan 23, 2015

As the commentator said, it's like we're reluctant to play the ball forward...against Cambridge United....

Why are they booing Blind?

Because he turned them down in the summer.......

Magnus · Jan 23, 2015

Its always difficult to play a lower league side especially away. We struggled many times under Fergie (Exeter, Leeds Burton aso). Still even in their 40-50s Giggs Keane Ince Kanchelskis Hughes and Cantona would have smashed these twats. It was so much better then. Come on ffs

Cassidy · Jan 23, 2015

Fellaini is such a limited player

Hed Zitin · Jan 23, 2015

Good width from adnan.

Irrational. · Jan 23, 2015

Please, Jones, don't take this corner.

gasmanc · Jan 23, 2015

We're higher up the pitch.

They're jealous of his good looks. I'd boo him too.

Offside · Jan 23, 2015

Why the feck are you shooting Januzaj? Deary me.

antsmithmk · Jan 23, 2015

Jones on the corners

He isn't the only one in midfield you know. He's shown for the ball the most and where have the rest of them gone? Camping all the way up top.

No he isn't but I've decided to speak about him, Jones has the ball on the right at the beginning of the second half, where was Carrick? The other side of their centre forward.

bosnian_red · Jan 23, 2015

Jones really must be brilliant at corners in traning
In all fairness, they've been pretty decent in game

Borys · Jan 23, 2015

Their keeper was quite lucky so far to be honest.

ha_rooney · Jan 23, 2015

feck off jones.

mu4c_20le · Jan 23, 2015

The formation changed but the philosophy is the same really

Rooney in Paris · Jan 23, 2015

I only do not understand why Jones is taking our corner. Just don't get the logic behind it.

Liver_bird · Jan 23, 2015

Guys why does Jones take your corners :lol:

Mali_Zeus · Jan 23, 2015

This may come as a shock but top teams sometimes have difficulties vs lower teams in a FA cup.

But lets panic.

Irrational. · Jan 23, 2015

What next? Smalling to be our regular penalty taker?

MTR · Jan 23, 2015

He cheated on a corner they should've had, but they didn't.

Lennon7 · Jan 23, 2015

Why's Jones still taking corners? What's happening

Philosophy.

Cooksen · Jan 23, 2015

Fellaini is being pulled out too wide

Yes but at the same time they also hit the bar time after time, off the line, amazing saves, missed pens. But I suppose they were that dominant they were bound to get through some times.

George Beast · Jan 23, 2015

It's almost as if we're being trolled by Van Gaal we're so bad.

Tarrou · Jan 23, 2015

That was a decent corner to be fair

Hed Zitin · Jan 23, 2015

Another shocking long ball.

Stack · Jan 23, 2015

I would have thought that Jones would be more use in the penalty box when we have a corner and that DiMaria who takes the free kicks to be delivering the corners.

ivaldo · Jan 23, 2015

Good luck getting one of those not to fly off for 90 minutes.

RetroStu · Jan 23, 2015

Its cringeworthy how clueless some of our players are.

rcoobc · Jan 23, 2015

Speaking of Beckham

kouroux · Jan 23, 2015

Again our CBs trying to create ffs what is wrong with moving ?

But he should be able to pass it with those players who are stuck up front then, no?

It's the whole team that's simply not working as intended and I have no idea why.

Wittmann45 · Jan 23, 2015

He just say that United beat Southampton in the 2004 FA Cup final?

Why is it that some don't understand that playing in such a cramped pitch in front of a team who has nothing to lose may make it a different type of difficult task?

Señor · Jan 23, 2015

Is Herrera on the bench at least?

bosnian_red · Jan 23, 2015

Januzaj has won his fair share of headers today, surprisingly
