Manchester United vs West Ham United - Match Thread

KevR

Haha @ the Scholes tackle!

MoyVilla9

I can see that head-hog or mouse coming to a disastrous end.

Liam O

ugh, had a couple of euro on Scholes for first card and he slides in from behind and doesn't get one. For god's sake ref

Headshot, i think Gibson is playing poorly.

He has a habit of sprinting upfield when we have the ball which means Scholsey has to play it long. He also isnt as quick thinking as our other players so he is losing the ball a bit too often.

Having said that he'll probably score from 85 yards.

Just tuned into the stream - ball just bounced on the line, too close for comfort!

Mars Bar

Passing is a bit sloppy...

del88

Anderson was dribbling away from goal and Rooney was heading towards goal, Ando slipped the ball in between 2 defenders but as he was jogging the other way he tweaked his knee (lovely ball btw) and he tried to play on but couldnt. Worrying.

Goal. That is a world class ball from Antonio Valencia.

bennyx_o

Fantastic, get in! Great ball by Valencia

Valmont

Valencia + Rooney is shaping up to be a great combination!

Redzer7

C'mon the Hammers.

jaykay74

that would have been some goal by rooney :eek:

ShaneU

SHI that would have been some goal.

Mikeyt086

If that Rooney volley went in i would have jizzed in my pants. So close Wayne.

Headshot

what a bloody shot by Rooney

Me too. It always happens that at this stage, when a stream cuts out, I get really excited!

SK1979

Haven't seen anything. First half summary? Are we on top? Who's playing well thus far?

same here. such a pain in the hole

Boggles

That's a dozen times Park has given away the ball, Evra still hasn't crossed the half line, because he knows he will be caught out.

Sums up what I have been saying about the left and why Rooney would not be a bad option out there.

That stream is only at the 35 mins mark, so u can see the goal in about ten mins!

Right i'll take this one.

Anderson started well and injured himself making a nice pass.
We looked a bit shakey early on with Neville and Valencia giving the ball away.
Foster nearly lost one over his head but he stopped the ball on the line.
Scholesy is running the show.
Gibson has been good and bad.
Vidic has been playing like Nemanja Vidic, thanks be to god.
Rooney and Berbs have been actually linking up very well.
Our goal was a sexual cross from Anto Valencia.
West Ham dont look dangerous and Big 'Manj hasnt given C.Cole a sniff.
ROONEY ROONEY ROONEY.

Thats about it.

Gosh that is worrying. Was he at least decent for the first 20 minutes?

Headshot

kmart6

Any decent link guys?! Can't get any working!

would Rooney have scored that goal if he was on the left ?

I think not

No but Rooney wouldn't have given the ball a dozen times either would he?

I think the injury happened after 7 min and he was obviously carrying it after that. Did ok I thought for the few touches he had.

what is it you and Rooney on the left :pac:

boggles its pure and simple madness tbh simple as that

Boggles

Anderson injured himself very early on, commentary said that he would be shocked if he last 10 mins. 8 mins later he was gone when opened the ligaments again.

Could be a season ender.

i can't imagine they would have let him play on if threatening a season ending injury.

I thought he looked good. 2 key passes which made chances, and he actually made his injury worse by nutmegging Kovac

Unfortunately, i think this could be true. Lets hope not.
