Very exciting game today, a fitting end to a great career.

It's a shame that Januzaj couldn't get on. Scholes was a cert to get a run out. Giggs coming on was a mistake. But I think Evans getting injuried dashed Januzaj's chance with Rio having to come on for the injuried Evans.

We played very well in the first half, but when we brought on Scholes and Giggs and Anderson had tired we had a total lack of energy in our team. That must have been the oldest team we've put out by the final whistle this season. Lindegaard, Rio, Valencia, Carrick, Giggs, Scholes and RvP. The only way that team could have been older would be to have Evans, Evra and Young on for Jones, Buttner and Hernandez. That cost us what should have been an easy game in the end.

Lindegaard showed why he isn't good enough. We'd have won today with DDG between the sticks i'm sure.

Anderson was good for the first half, but crap in the second once he ran out of puff.

Buttner was good in spells but needs games to smooth out the rough edges. His attacking play was the best we've had down the left all season.

Cleverley tired quite badly in the second half, he needs to work on his fitness. Although to be fair he hasn't had a proper rest this season.

Carrick and Kagawa were awesome, and Hernandez played well.

Valencia had his best game of the season too.

All in all a very exerciting game.

Shaps how much more rest does Clevs need mate?

Very well said mate. I was kind of hoping for a screamer by Scholes towards the end, which would be the winner.
