i think SAF is putting all the young players in too soon.
also ashley young should play on the right, his left foot is poor, and he is too predictable.jones lacks experience and thinks he's a striker.

Okay, it sounds like you're angry and with the performance tonight i'm not too pleased either but you are still a united fan right?!? don't say anything bad about jones, his overall match performance in every game he's played has been faultless although he's gotta learn going forward in european football.. is very dangerous! Young is best on the left, tbh it was always going to be a difficult game and with the stupid ref getting in the way as much as he did and making late/wrong calls too.. We did alright.

The one player who let me down this evening was Fabio, great at going forward but he gets far too carried away and while he's playing at RB his defensive duties should have been a priority but they weren't! Can't wait for the return of smalling at RB, on a european stage i know he'll do well!

Jones hasnt been faultless pal he gets sucked in too easy. the lad has alot to learn rio looks s**te now tbh and if you notice its never his fault.........

Jones has been outstanding all season, evra was the one at fault. he gave the ball away for tjhe 3 goals, jones had to come across to cover for evra. and hence left the middle exposed. evra played like he had is boots on the wrong feet at times. personally i dont think he is captain material and not a leader. we lacked leadership at times in the second half.

I couldn't agree more about Evra, for a few years now I think he has had it easy due to lack of competition in his position and he hasn't performed anywhere near to his capabilities. Last night he was dreadful. Totally agree with the stance on the captaincy as well. Should have gone to Giggs

I think Ferguson is to blame, many people said on here we had not purchased enough/the right players in the summer and last night was a prime example. Poor in the middle of the park, Wellbeck got 2 but is just never in the box. Evra is poor this season, but who is back Evans!! This could easily be the sign of things to come i am affraid!

Basically united fielded a team that ridiculed the opposition by saying we can beat you with this team...in europe no team is crap at that level..ferguson got it wrong...mega wrong..

DEFENCE: Ferdinand is too laxedasical (spelling?!) and not the same player he was, evra and fabio will leave us exposed all day long, Jones made a couple of errors but lets be honest he is class, and still very young

I think once Vidic, Smalling and Rafael are back our defence will be solid once more...I can see Jones and Vidic as a solid yet exciting prospect at CB

For now we must hope we can get through the next few games unscathed in terms of our defence, until the others are fit again

MIDFIELD: It has already been clear this season that we are lacking a real presence in CM, in terms of creativity and ball retention

Im afraid SAF must be laid to blame at this one, for we didnt sign a talented CM again in the summer. poor business IMO

Last night we lost the ball time and time again in the middle of the park, inviting pressure onto our frail defence. I mean relying on Carrick?! Seriously?

Hurry back Cleverly I say!

UP FRONT: We have plenty of strength in depth. But when Rooney is missing we are far from the same team :( Thats when we really get to see how bad a decision it was not to sign a creative midfielder.

Wellbeck is promising but I dont see him as an out and out striker, with him up front alone it was always going to be a struggle to test their keeper regularly. Well done for scoring 2 good goals though

CONCLUSION: We played poorly last night, in terms of midfield and defence particularly, and that cost us

But we still saved an important point (OK OK so 3 points would have been better but we should still qualify comfortably from this group)

So we must have faith, SAF rarely fails us, and certainly hasn't in the PL so far this year!

Fingers crossed then for the next few games (in terms of defence)...and for our injured players to get fit soon!

All going well on those fronts we will surely be there or there abouts come next May, winning at least the PL hopefully...making the fans happy again?

Young has been class on the left so cannot agree with you there

Moreover, Nani has been class on the right, so wheres the sense in changing things round on the wings?

Jones does lack experience, but is already a great player. The experience will come, and when Vidic is back as a partner he will flourish even more so then he has already

We do lack creativity anf influence in midfield however

We also lack defensive ability and composure at FB

De gea smalling jones cleverly welbeck are more than ready for 1st team young is a great winger and whats wrong with a cb that pushes up at has a few shots? means we got an extra attacker on the pitch just chill out relax and watch alex work his miracles yes you seem angry with the defeat but no offence you do not have the experiance or the abilites of alex if your a true fan have faith in the team

Rafael is playing?!?!?!?!

I don't know, apparently there's another lad in the squad that looks kinda like him.

Danny Pughnited

Funny fella! Rafael was in the squad news on BBC and on the team sheet on FB.

Funny aint you. Well according to BBCs line up he was playing. But now it seems Fabio's name is also down, there mistake not mine.

Am sure the Beeb meant Fabio... expecting a correction anytime now!

will sniejder be coming to manutd January transfer?

kelvin

We do not buy in january unless its a youngster
THE HEMMINATOR

The hemminator, you know we TRIED signing ashley young in january and he's 26, a year younger than sneijder so... ? lol

Not saying i think sneijder's gonna join in jan, pointless talking about him anymore ha! bad times

Ozwald

Is it just me or are things a bit quiet since wesley brown left old trafford? United are better with a Wesley in the squad, we need more wesleys - of any type really - even wesley presley would be alright

Ozwald we did try to sign ashley young back in january we agreed a deal for the end of the season in june hence the summer not january, he did not move to us in january and the reason we dont sign in january is because players who we sign will generally be cup tied in europe but villa wernt in europe anyway did ashley sign for us in january? no he did not you have just been herminated
THE HEMMINATOR

Who cares!!!!
Let's build with those who want to play for us. As Fergie said on BBC last night, the four England U21's live next to each other & are great mates. Team spirit, togetherness, leave the ridiculous wages to Citeh.
