I think I was bigger danger to Swansea's goal from my chair than. If van Gaal keeps playing him he deserves to be sacked just for that.
 
Back from injury and gets picked. Him and Falcao gone in summer please.

400k saved on wages.
 
Sorry, i'm not normally critical of United players, but how he gets back in to the team straight away based on his performances this season is baffling. He's been so lethargic most of the season. Even at the end when we had a free kick, he just jogged up to the ball as if we weren't losing 2 fecking 1.
 
Ok so came in to expect the usual amount of drivel after a game. I thought he was our worst player yes, but to say some suggestions of "he's finished", " should never wear the shirt again" quite frankly is embarrassing.
 
When you're slinging justified abuse at him, I just want to make sure none of you forget how subtle his movement can be.
 
Nah I'm sorry but he needs to go. He's in such a sharp decline, might as well get some money out of him.

Play 1 striker up front for the love of god. 2 has barely ever worked for us this season.
 
His worst performance in a United shirt? I mean I've seen him have bad games where he lacked involvement but today he was actively hampering us in attack, shooting with his weak foot, passing it backwards or off target.

It is so subtle he has forgotten to actually you know.. run?
 
Yeah, wasn't good today- a few decent touches here and there (hit the bar from tight angle) but his shooting was off and he could hardly walk for the last 10 minutes after that cross. He was a lot more involved in the first half than he's been in games with Falcao next to him but I think we should bench him now and play Rooney up with Fellaini/Mata behind.

That about sums up my opinion of him. Haven't seen him have a good game since 2012.
 
He's been getting a free ride for ages because everyone focused on Falcao. He has been very underwhielming for most of the season.
 
I think he needs to go at the end of the season. Has the mobility of a vending machine.
 
I think only he and Rooney are undroppable to Van Gaal. Mata and Herrera have been victims of this at times this season.

Even I was flipping out after he missed that chance in the second half :D

Still he managed to hit the crossbar, did any of our attacking players come closer to scoring a goal today? I don't remember, which is pretty telling. We have some serious issues.
 
A massive off game for RVP today. Really struggling at times this season. Blowing hot and cold and unfortunately, more often cold. There was nothing on display today to say he's a better option than Falcao right now.

If he's injured, in the most peculiar way, being out of the team for a while may prove beneficial for him... if there's an opening left for him to return back to of course.
 
I hope he is injured - not badly mind - but enough to keep him out of the team for a while. Way off form for too long now. LVG needs to be ruthless with him. Really like RVP but we can't afford to cater to his or anyone else's ego this season if we're to get top four.
 
Looks finished almost as much as falcao, mata should be given a run in the team behind Rooney.laying two strikers doesn't work we need to stop trying it but we have been doing it all season so no doubt it will continue. For me our forwards have been a problem all season and RVP and Falcao should be confined to the bench, RVP could do. Job for a year as a backup but that is about it.
 
Thankfully that means he should miss the next few games. Hopefully we don't resort to Falcao though as that will be the same shit in a different package pretty much. Will only be a blessing if it means we switch to a 1 up front (being Rooney) and start using the likes of Mata and Herrera consistently and properly.
 
The worst thing is his body language, just doesn't seem to care anymore tbh.

He has to be benched.
