Genuinely wouldn't be surprised.
We need to find a new taker then because Rooney's not totally dependable on spot kicks either.
You've shown up your bias here better than anyone else could've done. Van Persie was better yesterday than Rooney has been since the Spurs game. I'm sure you would judge Rooney coming back from injury in the exact same manner. Both will need to be much better from here if we're going to challenge for the title next year because Chelsea and City both currently have forwards they can depend on and we don't.
Sign Gundogan for his penalties
You just knew he was going to miss that penalty.
Harsh to take him off penalties on the back of one miss. Rooney missed against Liverpool (and I assume he is the one that will be taking them now).
Rooney isn't good with penalties but they somehow never seem to cost us when he misses them.
This is surely fake? Such a weird thing for a manager to state publicly, especially given Rooney missed one recently as well.
Ah! He also mentions Rooney is also at the bottom of the list as he missed, that's a pretty odd way to go with your penalty taker IMO.
If Phil Jones will ever be again on the penalty spot for us then i will run on the pitch and do everything possible to stop him to take the penalty!!!
Regards the penalty, it happens.....However, it happens too many times with us for my liking.
We had great penalty takers before, who never let the pressure get to them....Eric, Keane(In shootouts), RVN etc....So called world class footballers can't put it in the corner from 12 yards?! At Old Trafford?!....Rooney needs to have a look at himself in that regard to...His record is abysmal and shameful
As for RVP's performance....I thought he looked sharp and very threatening....Him in midfield though is beyond me
EDIT: "No, he's at the end of the road!"
Found that funny sorry

Found that funny sorryEngland's brave lionheart Phil Jones....Like having Waddle take a penalty....Grim!!
So mata to take our spot kicks then?
Has to be said, that's a really stupid policy. If it's "one strike and you're out" then that increases the pressure on the penalty taker each time he takes a pen. Which is the last thing a manager should be doing.
Was he ever on the penalty spot?
What a bad management by LVG.
"Robin no longer fits the profile of my penalty kick Philosophy...."
Rvp is a striker, he didn't score, didn't set up a goal, the team didn't score, missed a penalty, missed a sitter and blocked an almost certain goal, how the hell does that translate into having a good game?
Not sure how this new development will have influence on "RvP is adopted LvG`s son" brigade,they already took a blow when Falcao was in front of picking order when RvP was fit but not LvG fit,they tho that he will be treated differently.
Great way of instilling confidence in your players.
Same here.
He didn't play up front for half the game. I'm also not sure how having the ball struck at him is his fault.
Jones the Pen.
I see the method in having had Phil on the corners now. You have to spot the ball up and welly it in the general direction of the goal.
From much further away too.
It'll be great,

.I still have trust in van Persie.
How many times has he actually played as the lone striker since Fergie left? He got his chance in the first half vs WBA and looks so threatening. Then annoyingly got moved back in the second half.
He needs to play and be the main striker in my opinion.

won't be surprised if he pops up in a deep playmaker role tomorrow
Any idea what happened to him?
Is this the end of RvP at United?
He's on 200k a week and is a squad player at best now, we need him off the books.
Thanks for that great season Robin you were unstoppable but his legs have completely gone, it's all downhill from here.

Sensationalist headline. He missed training because of a bug so LVG didn't pick him.
I thought Ladyman is decent?
I'd be more then happy if both Falcao & RVP left in the Summer. Two huge names, on huge wages, who are way past it, and contribute very little (nothing).
