Valencia is physically such a beast

 

[Barney]

Fellaini is a thug.

This has been known for years.

Enjoyable match, both sides look entertaining going forward. Defences and centre midfielders have been quite bad though.

 

[Pyroblazer]

We look far more like a latter year Fergie team tonight, then anything we've seen so far. The calm possession seems to have gone out of the window.

So we will win this game in the end? I'm ok with that

 

[Baxter]

I think Blind is drunk.

 

[Cheesy]

Okay effort but straight at the keeper.

 

[pauldyson1uk]

this is a good game , end to end stuff, I really wonder what game some of you lot are watching.

 

[Summit]

Jesus do posters just bitch and moan about individual players the entire game.

fecking hell ADM Rooney made a great run.

Yep.

 

[Blue always red]

Feckin' hell, knives are out for Fellaini aren't they. Wouldn't be surprised if half the posters on half cackle when he does something wrong...

 

[Aboutreika18]

Jesus do posters just bitch and moan about individual players the entire game.

Matchday threads are pretty much places where posters can vent their obvious bias against certain players.

 

[RedFish]

why the feck are we getting isolated at right back!!!????

 

[Roman Bellic]

didn't know Fellaini had a left foot tbh

 

[Massive Spanner]

Pete and some other Arse fans on here used to see Scheszny was as good and talented as DDG.

Heh.

 

[DomesticTadpole]

I think Blind is drunk.

Blind drunk?

 

[TheApprentice]

I really don't know what people are complaining about. We are playing a top class opponent in a cup game and competing. Every time we get the ball it feels like we might score, which is a huge improvement on recent games.

 

[Archie Leach]

Szczesny doing his best to get Ospinas back in the team.

 

[pauldyson1uk]

what is it Di Maria doing OK tonight , so Blind is the scapegoat.

 

[Fortitude]

Valencia isn't helping himself out with some of his poor positioning.

Cause and effect. He's not simply running aimlessly to the areas he looks lost in - he's constantly trying to cover for Di Maria who is letting Arsenal players run off him left, right and centre. He hasn't tracked a man all night and that's bound to make his fullback nervous, which is why Valencia's trying to snuff danger out higher up the pitch.

 

[2 Neville's]

Excellent bit of defending there from Rojo, fair play to him.

 

[SqueakyWeasel]

Jesus do posters just bitch and moan about individual players the entire game.

Pretty much

 

[Kanu]

this is a good game , end to end stuff, I really wonder what game some of you lot are watching.

Agree 100%. Great game.

 

[Water Melon]

Carrick for Felli in the second half would cement our midfield a bit. Adnan for Young may win it for us.

 

[Mciahel Goodman]

this is a good game , end to end stuff, I really wonder what game some of you lot are watching.

Very good so far. Anyone could win this.

 

[Irrational.]

Young for Januzaj would be a good sub at HT. Not at the races today.

 

[Raptori]

I actually don't mind Dixon. Keown, Savage and Neville are rubbish but still better than Murphy.

Dixon is alright sometimes, but sometimes he's really irritating. Definitely not as bad as Keown and Savage, but still not someone I'd listen to if I had a choice

 

[R'hllor]

Watching Sanchez without ball,some players in Arsenal should give him their wages.

 

[SqueakyWeasel]

I think Blind is drunk.

There's a joke there somewhere

 

[The_Midfielder]

Scholes would have buried that shot..

 

[Sam]

Carrick for Felli in the second half would cement our midfield a bit. Adnan for Young may win it for us.

Agreed on both counts.

Our midfield is far to open. Get Carrick in ASAP!

 

[poisson]

I think this could go either way!!

 

[U99ted]

Good first half. Come on United!

 

[brewlio]

this is a good game , end to end stuff, I really wonder what game some of you lot are watching.

Seconded.

 

[Kag]

Feckin' hell, knives are out for Fellaini aren't they. Wouldn't be surprised if half the posters on half cackle when he does something wrong...

I like Fellaini but he's been poor where it matters most. No denying that.

 

[Still ill]

That's the calmest half of football I've ever seen from a keeper.
Dave, I mean.
Not the other guy.

 

[Cheesy]

Cause and effect. He's not simply running aimlessly to the areas he looks lost in - he's constantly trying to cover for Di Maria who is letting Arsenal players run off him left, right and centre. He hasn't tracked a man all night and that's bound to make his fullback nervous, which is why Valencia's trying to snuff danger out higher up the pitch.

He was aimlessly wandering in central midfield earlier on though, as well. Di Maria will naturally give the ball away a lot - it's part of his game - and Valencia should surely be able to compensate by not playing so high up the field all the time.

 

[GloryHunter07]

Worst performance of the season by far tonight. We've been woeful.

What game are you fecking watching?!

 

[Pyroblazer]

Decent half so far, can go in both directions, third goal will be crucial, hope we can score early in the second half

 

[Shyftyy]

Good first half. Entertaining too and it will end in a win to us. Exciting stuff!

 

[mu77]

this is what i expected from this side. could score or concede at any moment.

 

[TheApprentice]

Yep.

There is a big difference about pointing out a run a payer made and calling player shit or slow. ADM is having a good game IMO.

 

[Welbeckham]

Carrick coming on.

At least last time LVG talked to Januzaj like that and substitution followed after the break.

 

[Kostur]

To be fair it was a rather ok first half, I enjoyed it, deserved result for both sides I guess. We're too open on the right wing though, need to fix it, get Januzaj on for Young, former loves dribbling and Bellerin is on a yellow, latter is not having the best of games though he deserves to play so it's a hard one.
