Manchester United 1:2 Arsenal

Wowi · Mar 9, 2015

I suppose it makes sense to get Carrick on to get some stability in midfield. Arsenal aren't solid defensively either, so we should still be able to create chances with what's left on the pitch.

SteveJ · Mar 9, 2015

It's Carrick, you know
Hard to believe he's slower than Joey Essexxxxxx

Ow, stop throwing stuff at me.

2 subs? injuries or tactical?

Carrick tactical, Jones could be a injury again :/

mu4c_20le · Mar 9, 2015

Shaw picked up an injury it seems. Rojo at LB

Sam · Mar 9, 2015

And still Fellaini stays on

mazhar13 · Mar 9, 2015

Watch us slow down and become more static now that Herrera's gone.

2 subs now, strange one , must be injury related ?

According to Norwegian tv, there was one injury but I couldn't hear who.

Feck those substitutions. I predicted Mata, Januzaj and Falcao

Mata, Carrick and Falcao were mine. Didn't put Januzaj on the bench in case he ended up starting.

Massive Spanner · Mar 9, 2015

That's Herrera gone for another two months then so

JPRouve · Mar 9, 2015

If we don't win, sack the iron tulip, wasting substitutions like that.

Bojan11 · Mar 9, 2015

Don't mind Carrick sub. We need some calming influence in the team.

I get why Shaw is coming off, he has been poor against Chamberlain but why Herrera? Maybe hes injured

Herrera was bad too

Browniee · Mar 9, 2015

Carrick, this game?

Mali_Zeus · Mar 9, 2015

Maybe he made those subs for.. I dont know.. tactics?
I know Herrera is everybody's favorite player but come on..

Nah he was one of our worst players, CM and CBs were our problems.

Herrera is the link between defence and attack and he was not one of our worst players.

Raw · Mar 9, 2015

We're not seeing Herrera until May aren't we? :lol:

Irrational. · Mar 9, 2015

Two right footed CBs.

Maybe LVG ain't so stubborn after all.

pauldyson1uk · Mar 9, 2015

one thing we don't want is a replay and having to wait until next month for it.

Il Prete Rosso · Mar 9, 2015

It's one of the better halves of football I've seen from Utd v Arsenal in a long time. May the entertainment continue.

Borys · Mar 9, 2015

Makes no sense to sub Herrera and leave Fellaini. This is going to be tough game and not pretty for the eye.

the hea · Mar 9, 2015

Can't argue with those subs neither Herrera or Shaw was playing anywhere near there best

mazhar13 · Mar 9, 2015

Already a poor start to the second half. They're pushing up their defence, and we have little to no movement in our team at the moment.

Roman Bellic · Mar 9, 2015

I have a bad feeling about this second half

Blind should have been subbed IMO.

Archie Leach · Mar 9, 2015

I wish we'd stop trying to play long to Welbeck.

TheSamulator · Mar 9, 2015

feck me, let's make the midfield even slower. Jaysus.

Water Melon · Mar 9, 2015

Felli up top - long balls, set pieces. Zero for build up play...

I didn't think Carrick would play today, expected it to be considered too important a game to play someone who's just finding his fitness :/

Yeah and that's the problem, there was no good link at all. Herrera and Blind were awful for me, Carrick will help us.

shabadu84 · Mar 9, 2015

Carrick scooping passess to Rooney or Fellaini probably going to be the only way through the middle now, otherwise, all to the wings I'm guessing

Shane88 · Mar 9, 2015

Welbeck should be on a yellow for persistent fouling by now.

Browniee · Mar 9, 2015

If we lose this game it will be because of Jones

Cheesy · Mar 9, 2015

Summit said:

Agreed, too similar to Carrick for me.

TheSamulator · Mar 9, 2015

Can't wait to see Blind and Carrick running through treacle while Arsenal break at us.

Hes causing problems tbf

Cheesy · Mar 9, 2015

Di Maria should be whipping in free-kicks with Rooney attempting to get on the end of them.

Skills · Mar 9, 2015

3 at the back?

Browniee · Mar 9, 2015

The Ox is worse than Whilshire

Bojan11 · Mar 9, 2015

Rooney should stop taking freekicks.

Señor · Mar 9, 2015

Chamberlain off? Thank feck for that.
