    I hope he's pissed off at himself

    What a shock, we were done by midfield runners. Who would have thought it when they saw our dynamic midfield selection? Once again I blame the manager. Derby were always going to get down the middle up against Fellaini and Schneiderlin.

    To sort out the lack of mobility in midfield, who'd you put there? I mean someone who'd actually track that run? We don't have anyone, that's the issue.
     
    Schneiderlin and Fellaini is such a terrible midfield.

    Incredible how much it cost considering the quality.
     
    if only shearer could remove derby's cock from his mouth he might be able to say something that makes sense
     
    Pundits are insufferable here, theyre using the cliched criticisms of us this season in a match where we haven't played that badly, although the opposition are awful

    One stupid mistake from Smalling completely changes this perception of the match
     
    I have been supporting United since 1969 and for the first time in my life I am thinking of giving up supporting them. With this type of rubbishy play, how can you people tolerate anymore. I cannot.
    Even when I am recovering from illness, I have woken up at 0345hrs (my local time) to watch the game.
    Derby is like a lamb rather than a ram for slaughter today and yet the Lingard, Mata, Sneiderlin are having inferior complexity making so many short passes side way and backwards. They are supposed to be confident players with better skill who can dribble their way out of tight situation and move forward. The LVG fear factor has intoxicated majority of the United team. My message again to all you loyal supporters : Boycott the next home game to force LVG out if that Woody still persist with him.
    SACK LVG no matter what the result today!
     
    Peter S is right there.

    Martial shouldn't be that far back, the gains out weigh the cons. You dont see Neymar that far back for god sake.

    he had a great half, very strong performance despite some misplaced passes but at least he times his challenges much better than ever. Can't say aynthing bad about Fellaini today, maybe that his touch and turn will never be as quick as it could be so it could get into play quickly some of his players around him.

    Only Mata looks like he's not in the game even he gts a quick ball he always choose to go for safety option.. cant find these pockets well, would try lingard and try Januzaj from the right

    Can't say anything bad, other than his passes are generally 30 yards off target. That's probably a minor quibble though.

    That's why I'm not listening. Mute button in use until the match starts again. Sick of pundits now

    We could play Blind as a defensive midfielder, it's his natural role. We could play Carrick, he'd use the ball better than Schneiderlin.

    We're playing a Derby side in bad form. Tracking runners shouldn't be much to ask. Especially as we have the players for it.

    That's before discussing Van Gaal's had £250 million to spend.

    There is nothing so wrong with the squad it couldn't be fixed with good management.
     
    Fellaini has fecked our possession so many times.

    I've added three more things to my love letter that I'm going to send to the club that are guaranteed to improve our performances.

    4 - Explain to the players that a football is this thing that you have to get over the white liney things on the pitch in order to win the game.
    5 - Replace all of the chairs in the executive boardroom with bear traps.
    6 - Build a fake chin for Woodward to wear on his chinless face, and then kick him square in the cnut. Then take the chin back.
     
    Two evenly matched teams is making for a decent game. OK, our goal was offside but we deserve to be on level terms here.

    Yeah, being out of position all the time, not tracking his runners, terrible passing. It's not that bad for a CM

    Dude that's a little harsh.
    We aren't a great team but this is an FA Cup tie and its a competition which usually does throw up some unexpected results.
    In any case, we still have a good chance to win, so cheer up dude. We can win this one.

    He bought the players. He knew what the deficiencies were.

    It's 4:29am here. There comes a point when you have to make a decision on whether it is too late or too early to begin drinking.

    It is a bottle of this though:

    Mmmm. Nice. I get what you are saying about the time thing, it can be quite a decision to make as lives can be changed and dreams can be shattered or realised like new born stars births, or the death of the universe at it's coldest loneliest moment....Just ask yourself if you can really afford to destroy all of time and space and then get a nice tumbler and drink until you are happy to be alive but not happy enough to change your life for the worse.

    It might be better to leave it actually. Just in case.
