Manchester United 1:0 Crystal Palace

Mrs Smoker · Nov 8, 2014

This smells like our classic 0-0/5-0 games.

Irrational. · Nov 8, 2014

We're going for the simple, easy pass far too often in the final third.

In defence, fine. But we really need to take more risks when we get in the Palace half.

We look exactly like we did in our first games this season. Too slow and static on the ball. No Herrera and Rafael is really hurting us.

Can anyone explain why Hererra is sat on the bench with that useless bogbrush lumbering around on the pitch?

Lets get a goal before half time!

About 99.8% possession and nothing remotely to show for it.

We're winning possession at least :/

We look terrible in the final third...

Its going to be like this untill we sure up our defense, we are best attacking in that diamond but it leaves our defense exposed. This 4141 formation gives more protections but hinders our attack...

better from di maria

Is this the Carrick effect?

Ah, good ol times are back.

mitchmouse · Nov 8, 2014

Rooney back defending... he doesnt trust our defence either

Rafalus · Nov 8, 2014

I don't know why but I'm fearing that we lose this game...I hope I'm wrong

That would be my only worry with bringing Herrera on and I do want him on. Is that he combines well with Rafa, not sure Valencia is up to it.

One shot on target in 40 mins against a very poor team

Really don't get why we can't just play the damn diamond with Herrera and Mata, Rooney rvp up front.

Balance, etc.

It's horrible.

I see, well thanks for the response at least if not the confirmation.

Against this quality Palace side?

A palace goal would really set the cat among the pigeons

A Palace goal would actually liven this game up, and would probably give us the kick up the backside we need. Having said that, not sure we'd score the 2 required to win it.

mitchmouse · Nov 8, 2014

and Palace are gonna have someone sent off at some stage...

Fer · Nov 8, 2014

Palace is 17th in the league, we should be winning this.

Shane88 · Nov 8, 2014

37 minutes: Palace remember that we're a bit shit and begin to attack.

RuudTom83 · Nov 8, 2014

I feel sorry for the defense...if Palace score they get all the blame again but the inept attackers need a bollocking.

fishfingers15 · Nov 8, 2014

I may be the only one who doesn't mind how the game is being played

Woodzy · Nov 8, 2014

Disgraceful. Valencia is next to no threat.

Vindal · Nov 8, 2014

Carrick's not exactly been impressive either

Feed Me · Nov 8, 2014

Philosophy.

sizzling sausages · Nov 8, 2014

Terrible defending.

UnofficialDevil · Nov 8, 2014

kouroux · Nov 8, 2014

We are shit

Drifter · Nov 8, 2014

That was close.

Dylan94 · Nov 8, 2014

Hate to say it, but this is exactly the kind of game that I thought this would be. Us having plenty of the ball but doing f*ck all with it. Not creating any clear goalscoring opportunities and just being generally sh*t.

And also what has happened to Di Maria is exactly as I feared when he first joined is too. He was still using his form and confidence from Madrid in his first 4/5 games. But now that the performances from the rest of the team and the results have been so poor, it's affecting him now too. This has happened many times before at other clubs too.

JonDahl · Nov 8, 2014

For feck sake what is going on

KeninDC · Nov 8, 2014

Our obligatory screw up at the back.

iAm20Legend · Nov 8, 2014

We are going to get fecked if we don't score soon

Ole'sbodyguard · Nov 8, 2014

We are lucky there. Really good chance for Campbell.
