That might just be the best goal you will see from a 17-year-old in the history of the Premier League. Ryan Giggs finds Federico Macheda inside the Villa box towards the left-hand side, he flicks the ball between his own legs and curls a delicious shot into the far corner past Brad Friedel. Magnificent. New Manchester United hero has just been born. His name is Federico Macheda.

Why are YOU celebrating? Surely it makes no difference, Pool are as good as Champions, you said it yourself.

I still like to see united win, even if it is futile....

Didn't see United getting anything from the game with the way we were playing and if we had lost it was over imo. Still need to massively up the performances though. have two cup games before we get back to prem action so hopefully this result will put us back on the way.

Tevez looks useless on his own, giggs isnt helping much. Macheda to get the winner.

KIKO!!!!!!!!!! Man I love a good comeback, me feckin heart.

The title race didn't hinge on this match, plenty of mileage left in it. Most liverpool fans i've seen say united firm favourites but good to have a race on. I think united fans are hearing something else?

If you think that last 20 minutes from Villa was a good performance i guess that's why your supporting a team like Villa and not a top 4 side. Utter bottlers TBH.

Villa stopped playing after they went 2-1 up. I'll hold that against them forever.

Fair play to United, even if they were dreadful

No, I was calling ye's bottlers long before uniteds equaliser. Ye's were the better side for alot of the game then the self destruct button was pressed, lashing balls away to nobody rather than holding possession.
If they had of continued to play they would have got a draw at the very least, uniteds defence was dodgy and there to be taken

Viva Macheda, Viva Macheda
Fergie put Kiko on the pitch
Oh what a switch!
Viva Macheda!

well, the most impressive one since Rooney's for Everton against Arsenal anyway. And we all know how that turned out.

Old ladies better be wary of Macheda

Absolute guttless rubbish from Villa.

Again, this is bo!!ox. Utd should be able to cope with injuries without using them as excuses.
A team like Villa will miss Laursen and Bouma. Good performance overall. They just tired in the end

Yep - twas me - with the way we were playing, that is how i felt. delighted we won, hopefully it will be the kick united need - cause we have been crap for the last few games.

No, this is pretty much exactly what I've been thinking. Really enjoying this season, I'd prefer to be in a chase with Pool then Chelsea or Arsenal, so much more at stake

It's even harder to believe since they have the best manager in the world that can do wonders with any team.:)

Someone needs to teah him how to close out a game.

Yeah it is. You had it coming. So did Mitch Connor lol.

PHB

**** ing hell.

What a comeback.

We were absolute ****e for most of the game, Ronaldo's goal from a set piece from an error was flattering us. Then they went 2-1 up. United brought on Macheda and his general play make a big difference. He created the chance for Ronaldo and he put it away. 2-2.
But then Tevez was still playing absolute ****e, ****e, and couldnt string a pass together. Fergie brought on Welbeck, who nearly had an instant impact, an inch away from being the hero Macheda is now.
Then Macheda steps up and makes the difference.

You don't win anything with kids

I love the hilarious generalisations people make in threads. If Liverpools win in Istanbul has thought anyone on this forum anything, its that you shouldn't speak too soon [everyone should look at that thread, it's hilarious, my own posts included.

There is one thing I'd say from this match, and its an opinion I've held before, and I'm fairly sure its an opinion that Fergie holds too. Tevez's United career is over. He's just not worth the money.

great win for utd could turn things round for them,but if i were a utd fan id be woried they are shocking poor at the moment

Yeah it is. It sure is. Almost as easy as you posting for John Carew's goal.

I was patient rather than having a go at you. I got rewarded.

Smug as the South Park San Francisco episode.

Never seen it as having a go at eachother, i call it friendly banter.

Back on topic, ive always thought manc would still go on and win title , still do , am jsut happy to be anywhere near the shake up at this stage in the season.

God, I've only recently joined up but have always hated reading these threads.

How can people say Villa bottled it? How come when Pool did the EXACT same thing to Pompey in Fratton Park earlier on in the season and won 3-2 it was all down to Liverpool's brilliance.

Like I said, championship winning teams can't win games all the time with great performances, individual talent can always get you through games.

Also, Ferguson must take credit for his substitutions.

No i support Liverpool because my dad was born there and brought me there as a kid 3-4 times a season. What i'm saying to you is if you think that performance from Villa was good then i think you have found the right team to support in Villa. They bottled it plain and simple.:)

Now that Utd have finally won a game, will Ferguson drop his pathetic little strop and give a post match interview???

Fenix

It's unbelieveable Geoff.....

Couldn't belive my eyes when i saw Kiko comming on, but i was happy shocked not sad, made a few good touches, a nice run and threatening cross down the left, all in all a decent/good debut preformance, but seriously....

That was just sheer natural class that is very rare in football, from anyone not just a 17year old, couldnt be happier for him, hope Kiko gets more oppertunities even when Rooney and Berba are back, good knows hes done enough today to merit them.

Obviously loads of people won't even know who Kiko is but i'd say most people in utd thread have watched him in the academy/reserve games, and recently after his hattrick against the magpies some were calling for his chance in the seniors. Maybe fergie has the thread bookmarked

Lets not forget Ronaldos brace as well though, joint top goalscorer in the league now with le sulk, a decent return for someone who is having a dreadful season and [sarcasm]clearly dosnt want to be there[/sarcasm] (anyone see his reaction to the utd fans after he ran is 2/3 of the pitch to the villa corner after kiko's goal?).

Sympathy to the villa fans, at least it looks like your bad run of form is comming to an end.

Keep the red flag flyin high!

Yeah, come on how seriously can i take "Carew to you too":p i wasnt here mulling a plan to take you down. Just after the wildness of the moment i thought, haha who was that lad who poked me earlier.

Wouldnt call it ninja editing either, felt i could cap it in less words.

The race is on, and there will be alot more bants to be had before its decided.

bUILDERtHEbOB

Villa will be pleased enough with that performance I think, given recent results and all, but to call them bottlers is well off.

No way did United deserve to win, but the extra 5 minutes IMO was massive, because once it went up I thought here we go again another late goal coming up and some Villa players might have felt the same given they had played so well in the game for so long, and I'm sure United's players got a massive boost from it, anyhow the race still isn't over, plenty of football left to play etc.

Good for you. You and Liverpool deserve each other.

I feel sick & it isn't this hangover.
