SKY is so biased it's ridiculous...

If that was Aguero or Gerrard instead of Rooney, we'd be lucky to see a replay of the incident..

They also look so pissed off and sad it's embarrassing..

Thought he has been keeping the ball well although was at fault for mutch getting so much space. Needs to do more I agree but he is putting himself about.
 
Average first half performance with minimal display of energy and movement in the final third. Cardiff have played well with good pressing and tactical awareness to stop our attacks before they even start to materialize. Our midfield duo have been unable to create chances, properly compete for ball possession, nor have they managed to effectively shield our defence. Hopefully, the players will come in with a rejuvenated attitude in the second half which may allow us to better dictate the flow of the game.

Cleverley is putting himself about! Feck me you are having a laugh he'd get bullied in an under 15 match

That's not enough for beeing a United CM though, I'm sorry. He's just pissing me off with his lack of quality these days. A bit of penetration Clev, please!

I hope we score another after Rooney knocks the ball off with his hands. Christmas would have come early. :)

I'll be watching the Sky post match all month.

Well not if you like professional coverage. He should have gone, the ref made a mistake. There have been countless reffing errors this weekend alone, why is everyone acting as if Rooney has taken a baton out of his sock and beaten someone within an inch of their life?

Countless errors which have been the main talking points of the weekend.

I just think people massively overreact regarding Cleverley. He's not as bad as people make out, I don't quite understand it. Look at Jordan Henderson for goodness sake, he was slated across the board until his manager had a bit of faith in him and gave him a regular place in the team and he's been very good this year. Same with Aaron Ramsey, the fans slated him, Wenger backed him and was proven right. Cleverley needs some support and to be given a run of matches in the team, don't we remember how good he/we were when him and Ando were playing together a couple of years ago? That was some of our best football in living memory!
 
Tyler still going. Neville desperately trying to describe the game amidst it all.

Ronaldo? Nah Ronaldo was a totally different player to Januzaj.
Anyway Hernandez got the assisst yeah and he almost got no service from our shocking midfield but when he actually had to hold up the ball he lost it.

oh don't missunderstand me, hardly saying they're the same player. simply saying they share some of the same traits.
and ye he hasn't set the world alight but he's hardly one of the people I'd pick out first from that 1st half when talking about a bad half

That is a bit of a myth though as they played how many good games together?

Cleverley is shit.

He's hardly shit, but his development has been the biggest let down. I don't think he's progressed at all since he broke into the first team. There's actually a possibility he's gotten worse.
 
We're desperate for a right back. It affects our entire shape when we have the ball. Hopefully Rafael just isn't fit yet, because if Moyes is choosing Smalling over him there....eeeesh. I think Smalling might become a great centre back, but we're doing no one any favours playing him at right back.

I'd stick Valencia back there in this type of game, and bring on Nani.
