Stoke to go mad and loose 3-0, or Man Utd to hang on for 1-0 win as the jet-lag catches up late on.

Boggles

1-4 United, Ronaldo hatrick.

Have a feeling Rooney is at the start of one his peeks at the mo and will get a few today. Hoping a clean sheet too, need to get back to last years defensive form

Very very slow team from United, slow and small. That said, Rooney to win the game with Ronaldo getting the goals.

I was at the game at OT and Stoke are the worst team I've ever seen on a football pitch. If we get a early goal it will be another rout. They will have to attack since there at home, 5-0 again.

1-0 if it's 0-0 at half time.

Vidic and Evans have no understanding.

Watching it here at the moment, coming in very clear.







A cnut's trick I know, but I couldn't resist.

S.M.B.

Is there any stream where United are playing well?

Pighead

Those shadows all across the pitch are a pain in the hole.

He did, but he's out of the first leg of the next CL round.

Doesn't affect the PL

Has he been pretty disappointing all season?

Rooney not booked for dissent once, then twice. Surprise Surprise.
can't help but be impressed with Stoke, particularly fuller

ShooterSF

Bout time Fuller seen a card. Guy needs a lesson in the lenght of a yard.

RasTa

It looked like stoke had a ten man wall for that free kick, shoulda squared it to someone for a shot.

It seems to me that Tevez has far more impact coming off the bench. So far in the games he has started he hasnt really impressed.

Ronaldo started the season so well when he came back from injury, 8 goals in about 3 weeks. But since he just looks lazy.

Someone needs to grab this game by the scruff of the neck and go and win it.

The entire wall bunny hopped forward once the referee turned away.

tbh there's not a whole lot more tevez can do every time he receives the ball there's a wall of stoke defenders around him

what do you expect him to do like?

Not his usual self, only 8 goals and 3 assists in 14 games. I except him to step it up in the second half.

The game reeks of a lack of pace in the team. Tevez and Giggs all too slow. Scholes isn't really preforming at his usual levels, to be expected.

That said, without Anderson or Nani on the bench, I'm not sure how you'd change it.

Subs are:
* 29 Kuszczak,
* 09 Berbatov,
* 13 Park,
* 16 Carrick,
* 19 Welbeck,
* 21 R Da Silva,
* 28 Gibson

Da Silva for Neville, Park for Giggs, Carrick for Fletcher I'd say.

SantryRed

Can see Stoke nicking this one with a set piece. United look jaded. They can keep the ball all day but they need to open them up.

Well ive seen Tevez play, so i know what he is capable of, hence i know he can do better.

I expect him to be more involved.

Threw an elbow there.

That's the past 3 games I've seen him play in where he's done something thuggish and could warrant a red card. He needs to cop on a bit and realise he is a professional footballer and a role model, that's the last thing his team needs ffs.

but he hasn't done anything wrong?

anytime he's been given the ball in a tight space he's found a pass and he's defending from the front as usual....

not much you can do when 3 defenders come to you every single time..
