Great first half, best of the season so far.Great football, when was last time a match was that controlled from United ? Some sexy stuff on display
Manchester United vs. Blackburn Rovers
- Thread starter nemanja15
- Start date
ht: sensational stuff so far, and should have had a pen and them down to 10.
Looks like Blackburn are getting the battering I predicted someone would soon be on the end of.

What a fantastic performance. Such great passing and movement, everyone playing with confidence and crispness.
Berba very, very unlucky not to get a hatrick with penalty.

Awesome. Our best football of the season. Some of Rooney and Berbatov's link ups have been sublime. And what a relief to see a well-functioning midfield without Scholes for a change. Rafael's been superb too, that one time where he got beaten by Hylond (??) aside.
Amazing stuff. Every single player has been terrific.
He misplaced a few passes, but overall he did well that half. Hopefully we're signing a Nani style rebirth from him.
Excellent football, great movement, determination, flair, movement, just sexy
Special mention to Rooney, his first touch and quick passing has been very good.
ref has certainly given Blackburn the benefit of the doubt.
Rooney still to hit his form, but getting there.
Rafeal has made that position his...wonderful.
Anderson has been sure and efficient.
We should easily double the score second half if we continue this way.

Lee Probert, isnt he the guy he refused Bolton 3 clear hand balls against Chelsea that were clear penaltys at the bridge during the run in last season?....
Hmmm.
Hmmm.
Anderson has done very well, hope he keeps it up
Obviously the ref feels sorry for Blackburn. That's just bad refereeing. The rules of the game should be the same no matter the score.
great great football, Rooney's great as well, Berbatov looks a different player next to Rooney
last time both started at OT was against Liverpool

I had forgotten just how good Rooney can be
Ref was bottling it at the end. Hope someone shows him those decisions at HT.
the early goal clearly set us on our way.
Excellent first half, the best football we have played this season, the one touch passing and movement between the front 4 has been outstanding and Carrick and Anderson have ran the midfield.
Will the real Man United please stand up, please stand up, please stand up ...
Football is back.

Would have been a lot more than 3 had it not been for the ref.
Diouf should be off, and a stonewall penalty.

He had one cross-field ball to Nani intercepted. Good vision to spot it though. He's been excellent. Very impressive with the ball at his feet, and his movement is as good as I've seen it for a long time.
great performances, some free-flowing football.
just hope nani scores early after the break to calm him down for the rest of the match...
Okay great half but, one big complaint ... what are Rooney and Berbatov doing when it comes to Nani - seem to be ignoring him. Think it's making Nani want to try too much once he gets the ball now.
Sexual stuff.

Totally going to beat Drogba in the air for this one. 30 seconds ago
Dammit 5 seconds ago
In other news, I found a good stream. At half-time. Get in there
Anderson and Rooney standing out, is Anderson our solution to lack of creativity?
Love his explosiveness

Ok give Diouf the benefit of the doubt but how can you not give that penalty, unreal.
He has. Funnily enough only when he went for a long rocket pass
But yeah, he's been terrific. Really showed his pace on a few occasions. He's got so much of it.
Make sure you watch the repeat. That first half we played some fantastic football. This is so much like the 06-07 season with the one touch passing.I'm happy we're playing well but vexed that I'm missing it.
Now I just hope it won't be a foot off the gas 2nd half.I wanna see more goals and good football
Yea, bang on. Just because we were 3 up he decided on doing some damage limitation, bad refereeing.
This is the best Anderson has played for as long as I can remember.
Another reminder to not write off young players...

The front four have been brilliant. Outstanding off the ball movement by Roon, Berba, Nani and Park and well worked goals. Excellent stuff, keep it up.
I don't know why but hearing this American pundit say 'Berba' sounds hilarious.
Berbatov's footwork at the end was absolutely magical. Stonewall pen.
Super first half from us. I knew someone was due a beating at some stage.
Rooney and Berbatov have linked nicely at times.

Blackburn and Big Sam are a joke
Rio hasn't given away a PL free-kick since April, according to the Noggie studio people.
i'm having second thoughts about the penalty, at first i said it was a clear one, but after watching it again i think berba hits the defender
any idea why rooney was limping a little in the first-half?
The great part is that we're expressing ourselves on the pitch. That's what we want to see.
Btw, Diouf's tackle was a disgrace. Class from Evra not making a meal out of it.
Sexy football so far.
that Geiko advert with the drill sgt from Full Metal Jacket is brilliant!
