All two of them and he wasn't up against someone like Aguero then either. Smalling's pace will be very useful today, IMO.I'd have Nasri over Navas any day of the week... especially with there being no Silva.Please pm me a river that works on iPad. ThanksThose cross-passes... Horrible
What pace?Nice stuff to get it out from the back.Good startUnited passing it around at the back makes me nervous.Is Rooney actually playing in midfield or do my eyes deceive me?
Rusty Rooney in the centre is a worryDi Maria a lot more central today it seems.Rooney is a little rustywe started really well
thiers no massive diffrneces, were palying 4411, two holding midfielders, 2 wingers, a player behind a striker, the main avenue for attack is get the ball down the wing and cross it in.
thats how we played last season, and that how we played last week, maybe it was a one of but seems weve set up the same waySolid start.Our passes have been shitIf every second pass wasn't to a City player, that would be great.Is Rooney still asleep or something?Cmon Rooney lad get your head in the game.Not passing too well at the moment.Passing shitSo many misplaced passes
You don't think Smalling is fast?COME ON FELLAINIgood quality stream,anyone?Horrible start for Rooney8 min
Aguero finds space in the box, jinks past Valencia and his shot from a tight angle is punched away by De Gea.Well Rooney looks to be not keeping up with the play. Understandable. He better pick it up thoughGetting nervous nowCity clicking into gear now. Valencia horribly exposed in that last attack.Shaw has an awful knack of getting caught far too high up the pitch.Valencia beaten far too easily.Watch the runners ffsBad startI'm worried about ValenciaGreat start, have to make it count early though. Rooney in midfield... don't/didn't think he had the passing in him, let's see.Got past Valencia far too easily there.rojo's a crap defender. sleeping againIf Valencia is going to defend like that, we might as well go home now433, or 4141 if u likeRooney has not played for a long time and it shows.
Hopefully he comes back into it soon- Status
