Rooney could sit down in the center circle to take a shit and it'd make no difference to the game.

Might affect the restart if we score

 

[Snow]

Only a minute added on despite two goals being scored.

 

[Shady]

Can we get phil jones back for corners.

He would have none of this short stuff just whip the ball in

The second short attempt was actually quite good.

 

[Organic Potatoes]

Saints player did in his groin there I think.

 

[pauldyson1uk]

Do you have something against Spanish people? Your stance on Mata literally, literally has no basis in reality.

Did a Spanish waiter bang the hell out of your mum or something?

what !!!

 

[bosnian_red]

we have to give him time. He's only just started in this league. He'll get it...but over time

Don't think he's been that bad really. Not as good as against PSV obviously but decent.

 

[togg]

what !!!

 

[RedOldBoy]

What position must our captain and highest paid player in the league play to be of any kind of use to us?

Could be used as a janitor

 

[Mciahel Goodman]

So shit the first 30mins, score that goal and we dominate the last 15mins.

 

[revel911]

I can't figure what is wrong with Memphis. Kid has phenomenal talent, is the pressure just too much?

 

[JPRouve]

Rooney could sit down in the center circle to take a shit and it'd make no difference to the game.

 

[Kill 'em all]

Rooney does ever so well at being useless.

 

[saivet]

We improved towards the end of that half. Not great though.

 

[HabeasC]

We would look so much better with Mata at CAM and a proper RW.

 

[Eriku]

I think it would.

Me too... a pass along the ground is bound to cross its path at some point, and it would screw up the trajectory and/or pace of the ball.

Ridiculous post, clearly doesn't know anything about football.

 

[Hammerfell]

Yeah I can see how you'd jump to that conclusion.

 

[tob]

Mata's creativity was the architect of that goal.

Yeah, he's had one good moment. Martial has shown us more than Rooney has all season.

 

[Anustart89]

I'd love to see Herrera behind Martial to thread through balls to him, but that's never going to happen unless Rooney's injured. He's got this club by the balls somehow.

 

[Red Dreams]

we need someone in our midfield to put the fear of god in them.

Good we look so soft.

 

[Stack]

Mane is so smooth on the ball.

 

[Varun]

What position must our captain and highest paid player in the league play to be of any kind of use to us?

Bench.

 

[Raw]

Looked much better after 25 minutes or so. Could have easily been 2-0 down!

 

[RetroStu]

I can't figure what is wrong with Memphis. Kid has phenomenal talent, is the pressure just too much?

He's obviously one of those that prefers the Champions league over the League.

 

[littlepeasoup]

Finished the half as we should have started it. Hope we can kick on in the next 45, because that first half hour was truly dreadful.

 

[goin4glory]

Carrick/Rooney and Mata were very poor. Darmian needs to offer more going forward at RB.

 

[bosnian_red]

Took us 30 minutes to do something in the game, probably our worst opening 30 in a long time. But we finally got to grips with the game. Carrick and schneiderlin were the biggest problems for us IMO, they need to improve. But the last 15 were good with mata getting involved and us getting balls in behind.

Martial is brilliant.

 

[Spoony]

We got a spanking for 35mins until Martial dug us out of a hole. He's already better than David Bellion.

 

[Nucks]

Yeah I can see how you'd jump to that conclusion.

I was asking a question. I made no leap. It's really a tool to elicit a response as to why he is talking out his ass.

 

[Hed Zitin]

We were shite.

Still too slow in possession. Not enough pressing.

The first 25 mins was disgraceful. They looked hung over.

Martial the only highlight.

 

[Leg-End]

Rooney's best position is just off LVG, passing chewing gum to Giggs.

 

[Tarrou]

Rooney to anyone would be a good change

 

[Oo0AahCantona]

At what point do we seriously relegate rooney to the bench? i would happily start mata at the 10 and bring somebody like young on outwide, shifting mata wide to accommodate Wayne in this form is seriously damaging the team.

 

[shivab]

Darmian has to be better in attack. dont know why he refuses to overlap esp if we are playing carrick and schnedierlin both of whom seem to be sitting.

 

[Hernandez - BFA]

Schweinsteiger on for Carrick maybe.

 

[SqueakyWeasel]

what !!!

(although that might have merited a "Que")

 

[Summit]

Would like to see Schweinsteiger in the second half.

 

[RetroStu]

We are so weak mentally, we go behind and then fall apart, we score and then we start playing.
Weak and cowardly.

 

[JinnerJamie]

I can't figure what is wrong with Memphis. Kid has phenomenal talent, is the pressure just too much?

The restrictions placed on him by the need to play the safe option at almost all costs.

 

[Tarrou]

At what point do we seriously relegate rooney to the bench? i would happily start mata at the 10 and bring somebody like young on outwide, shifting mata wide to accommodate Wayne in this form is seriously damaging the team.

At some point in the next 15 minutes hopefully

 

[marlowe78]

Good recovery but how can you allow a goal like that? We have two holders in the game and they walk right up the middle as if they're alone on the pitch.

Martial the one bright spot that half. Looks to be a superb talent.

Rooney doing nothing yet again and how about Mata? I know he helped to create the goal but he's played the ball into risky positions a few times. Blind looks poor and Rojo is playing too far forward. Could still very easily lose this.
