No, not yet. After another goal yes. But I'd take Veron off and put Forlan on, he needs to play alongside Ruud.

Dunno about Ruud but if we score the 4th i'd take Rio out.
 
Becks, Scholes and Keane were the reason for our success in this half I'd say. Terrific work rate and creativity and passing.

When the midfield close down this well, and to be fair, the opposition is so poor, the defense have very little to do. Good game to play Rio in then, gentle workout for him. They've only had pot shots and free kicks.

YES...VERY BEAUTIFUL.....JUST LIKE IN PRACTICE!!!!! GREAT WORK OUT!!!!!!!!

ANYONE: ARE WE STILL PLAYING BORO TOMORROW?????
 
Come on everyone - we've pissed this game - over to the general to celebrate.....
 
Hansen says its hard to comment on Rio, he's had so little to do. He did notice that he's controlled the line, shown pace, and been very vocal and commanded the defense. But I think May would shine in this game... ;)
 
Will we still be seeded for the CL draw?


Oh feck!

Scholes is on the sidelines injured, taking his boot off. Don't know what, but he won't be continuing!! <img src="graemlins/nervous.gif" border="0" alt="[Nervous]" /> This jinx is doing my head in!
 
SCHOLESY IS DOWN AND CANNOT GO ON !!!!! HERE COMES OGS "SUPER SUB"!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LET'S SCORE SOME MORE FOR SCHOLES!!!!!!!!

GLORY GLORY MAN UNITED!!!!!!!!!!!! <img src="graemlins/devil.gif" border="0" alt="[Devil]" /> <img src="graemlins/devil.gif" border="0" alt="[Devil]" />
 
Scholes is being stretchered off...

Ole on for him. Something with his ankle, Brooking speculating on achilles or twisted ankle.
 
Brooking reckons it's an Achilles injury <img src="graemlins/nervous.gif" border="0" alt="[Nervous]" />
 
This injury situation is getting stupid.

How unlucky can we be in one season?

THEY STILL HAVE US LISTED TO PLAY TOMORROW!
I DIDN'T THINK WE WOULD THOUGH, JUST ASKING......
 
FlaReds, I know its exciting mate, but there's no need to SHOUT! ;)

Scholes rightly applauded off, superb first half, was leading the race for MOM.
 
Ruud had a good chance on the edge of the box but spent too much time on the ball and opportunity passed. Becks playing on the left at times. Keane pressing to get the ball back and does!! KEANO KEANO KEANO! <img src="graemlins/keano.gif" border="0" alt="[Keano]" />

whew......sorry there mate!!!!!! typing to fast and hit the caps. trying to update me brother at the office ......he can't listen to the radio!!!!! pain in the ass bosses he's got
 
There's only one KEANO...

He's started this half off well...good saving tackled by Blanc, but was he injured during it? He's hobbling a bit.
 
Looks to me that Blanc's just a bit sore, but he might have to come off for caution's sake.

Micky showing off a bit on the left, got a corner. Nothing comes of it.

Blanc has had his knee sprayed, carrying on playing though.
 
They've brought on a striker.

They take a shot, bounces off, and another, deflected out. Ole in for Ruud, but he was pushed out wide and couldn't find anyone with the pass back in. Our confidence seems to have dipped with the loss of Scholes.
 
Ruud through to Giggs, bit wide but doesn't take the shot for some reason, and instead hits a crap pass back. Again, no end product. Its a bit frustrating, he could do so much more with the chances he gets.
 
Another weird named player comes on for some weird named player.

We're not pressing so well now. Rio shows his skill to take the ball and turns to create himself space to pass.
 
Giggs charges at the defense, but runs straight into them.

Beckham corner from the right. Defended well.

We're less attacking now, probing away rather.

It's almost like he wants to play 'too cute'. When's the last time you saw him blast a shot on goal, a real hard hit shot? He always tries to place them too much imo.
 
Some weird whistling song going on, never heard it before. Ruud and Keano get a chance, but spend too much time over it. Ole now through to Ruud but he blasts it over the bar, not far over though.
