Manchester United Vs Leeds United

Hang on... Marching's giving it large in here, but didn't he stop supporting Leeds and switch to Newcastle the moment things got a bit hairy in Yorkshire?

tbf he never stopped supporting Leeds. He moved to Newcastle with his bird I think...no harm supporting the local side.


Marching is alright....let him have his day....he wont have it again in another 10 years ;)
 
Hark at you lot crying out for more money to be spent.

How's about we take a lesson from Leeds and start getting the simple things right like passing and defending. You don't need to throw money around to get the basics right, absolute shite from us today, played much of the game like we didn't want it. Gibson - shit, Berbatov - £30m worth of shit, Owen - shit, Obertan - shit, Neville - shit. Set pieces - shit and still Fergie won't give Tosic a go.

Money won't buy you passion, look at all the money this club has spent in the last few seasons and still we struggled to get the basics right today.

Spot on.

Standard knee jerk reaction is 'we need to sign...' which is way off. There's no doubting our quality.


Passion and Desire on the other hand...
 
do you lot congratulate scousers when they beat us??

feck off i will never congratulate a sheep shagging bastard even when we lose..

Do you not understand what it means ?

Or is it cos hes a mod and youre kissin arse..

I'm gutted we lost,but congratulations? feck off and support your balls
 
Oh they have done nothing worth celebrating about..

League one team knocks a full strength Man United team out of the FA cup, they also happen to be a bitter rivals, but no they shouldn't celebrate..

Missing VDS, Rio, Vidic, Evra, Hargreaves (if he still counts), Carrick, Fletcher, Valencia & Giggs (for half the match), and Scholes.

But still the side put out has no excuse to lose to a League One side.
 
No, we had the majority of the chances in the 2nd half. They had about two, we had a lot more than that. We were the team on top for most of the 2nd half, we created enough chances in that 2nd half to win the match but we fluffed our chances.

I didnt see any real chances, plus its a full strength United team against a league one team FFS! Chances? we should have goals AND chances
 
I am one of berbatit's biggest detractors on here but have a word with yourself if you are blaming him today. He played well and orchestrated our best moves. The team wasn't arsed at all for this match and the defense was woeful. Negative marks to brown and gaz. The wings were inept as well.

We'll get it turned around for city however.

Absolutely right
 
i'm sorry and its not knee jerk but berbatov and owen aren't good enough to play up front for us...we can't rely on Rooney to do it all on his own

apart from a few individual pieces of skill and a couple of passes berbatov was yet again a waste of space - totally toothless

owen isn't a good footballer and the one thing we bought him for - his 'finishing' - has been shite also - another chance today and he swipes at it and misses it

we also look very ordinary in midfield with no carrick or fletcher

we need a serious shake up in the summer or we risk becoming a one man team with rooney our only potent threat

well done to leeds, great support and played really well - if we had won it would have been an injustice

I believe there is nothing wrong with being gracious in defeat. Especially when the team deserved it.
 
i feel bloody sick of this, quite simply our squad isn't good enough....all this 1-0 losses at home, besiktas, villa and of all team a league one side, bloody pathetic.....
 
I look at that 2nd half and I just think we were unlucky. People on here moan if a match ends with us not giving a shit or showing desire (like against Liverpool recently or against Barcelona) but I think in the 2nd half, we were better and we deserved something in the end but it just didn't happen. Well done Leeds, you cnuts.

actually I would congratulate a scouser that beat us fair and square...and I Hate them..in the end you have to recognise good football...and they played it better than us today.

Marching is alright and I bet would not have been one of the dog shite that disgraced Sir Matt's minute of silence.

Squad overhaul between now and August is a must. Not an overreaction it's the truth. We can't put together a good run of form this year, more losses at home than I can remember in previous seasons too.
 
Meh. Shit happens. Football would be boring as feck if the team expected to win always won.
 
in my opinion we should use players like Tosic, Foster, De Laet and where is Nani? It doesn't hurt that much when you play with the second team, but now this losing hurts.

Sorry, it wasn't our full strength side - no Fletcher, Carrick, Scholes or Evra. Valencia & Giggs didn't come until the 2nd half. If it was our full strength, the midfield would have had Fletcher and Carrick/Scholes, Evra would have started LB, and also Valencia & Giggs would have started on the wings. We created chances, but we didn't take any of them as we fluffed them.

Well done Leeds, you cnuts.
its was only the last 5 minutes when we had them pinned in their box though

not good enough - we had 2 half decent chances before the last 5 really with welbeck and rooney shooting over

this is against a team who went to a replay against kettering

too many games we just havent looked like scoring

yes i agree with you there - if two of those half chances had fallen a little luckier, we wouldn't have been sitting here like the world has ended.

having said that - we weren't very good and we need a few first class players AND FAST
 
At least it was only 1-0. It could easily have been a hell of a lot worse.
 
we really shouldnt need to rely on luck against a third division team

and our team had internationals throughout and players with loads of experience
 
Owen mis-kicking that pass into him was the biggest facepalm moment of the season. Terrible terrible stuff from us today.

Still, if you've been supporting United long enough you'll know we're always capable of at least one of these utterly shite results every season or so. That's football and in a way it's great that Leeds can come to our stadium and beat us. Shows that football is still competitive. Embarrassing result but no point worrying. If there's no reaction against City, then we can worry.
 
I believe there is nothing wrong with being gracious in defeat. Especially when the team deserved it.

It does hurt more against Dirty Leeds and The Scousers but if they deserved to win then so be it..We can only blame ourselves for such inept performances and congratulate Leeds for playing with a passion that we simply did not match..
Has SAF said anything yet?

agreed. our midfield was nowhere...Gibson was a waste of space. Still we should have beaten them with this team...they wanted it,,,we just expected it....

Yes, the last 5 minutes were the most frantic but that's to be expected, but you can't say we weren't the better team in the 2nd half.
 
Only Man. Utd is capable of doing these type of defeat. Thay are trying to
set up some records or let other teams break their duck.
Some of the players and decisions were really bad.
Gary Neville shouldn't have played as he is too too slow. Fabio is really weak. Darren Gibson is very lazy. Berbatov's thinking is too far ahead for his team mates. Wayne rooney thought that this is a practice session and he shooting any old how. Kuszcak has proven that he is only good in stopping shots but does not like to come out and cover his defenders. SAF and his coaches took off the best midfielder (Anderson) that can win the ball back and can make some decent passes. The way Obertan and Wellback played, they need a bigger and wider field.
Well what SAF said is all b000000t (trying to win all 4 trophies) as with this type of combination, he may end up winning some Easter eggs.
Even though I do not like MU to loose, but I predict that United will be out of all cup competitions this season if they do not go out and buy some exceptional good players to supplement the existing lot. So what if some of the injured players are on their way back to fitness. Those players will be extra careful and will not put in 100% effort as they do not want to get another injury because of the World Cup.
 
Thanks for the congratulations....we were really up for this today and played very well.

I don't envy being the next team you play.

No quotes yet...

Nope not having none of that tripe,i would tell a scouser to feck off you scouse bastard .. Marching might be a great guy, would he of disgraced Sir Matts minute... How the feck do i know maybe he did maybe he didnt.
only he knows that..

Its called passion after a match and it fecking hurts and i do not even conceive how you are so matter of fact after a game,i just dont get it,
Maybe its called passion,maybe its called supporting Manchester United
I am just absolutely fecking gutted and no that does not mean congratulating
supporters of opposing teams,i'm sorry i just dont do it and i cannot comprehend how someone can.

I didn't.

I feel your pain.
 
Anyone watch SAF interview on MUTV? He reckoned that Valencia was the only one that played well. I loved his response to the question, "Will Vidic be ok for Wednesday night". "I couldn't tell you was his reply." Must be the worst Job in the world interviewing SAF after a result like this.
 
Yes, the last 5 minutes were the most frantic but that's to be expected, but you can't say we weren't the better team in the 2nd half.
yep we were better if it comes down to possession but look at the chances they had and the free kick that hit the post/bar - there wasn't much in it

which isn't good enough for the Premier League Champions playing a 3rd division side

berbatov cost more than their entire side and he lacks the passion or desire to wear the shirt - Leeds showed balls where Wigan rolled over thats the difference
