Was happy enough with Kiko - he's nice and composed on the ball.

Obertan and Park may come on. Training now.

Berbs is like an advanced Central Midfielder . . His passing and creativity is exceptional at times . .

While i agree Berbatov has done well the first half. One thing i hate to see is he has moaned from the first 2minutes and thrown his arms and shouted at everyone more so Kiko which is not nice to see when things dont go his way. I hope SAF clips his ears at half-time.

Well Berba today is showing why he should be played in the position he is.

I've been saying for a long time the abuse he gets is a bit over the top, he isnt a goalscorer. He is been played in a position today that suits him best, and a position he hasnt been asked to play in that often for United.

He has clearly been giving instruction to play advanced of scholes and giggs, and anything united are doing is coming from ihm.

Absolute sublime touches of the football his control is impeccable. And his deft passing is spot on, and he has been taking up very intellegent positions around the midfield to create united offensive manouvres. Been a bit petulant towards team mates but he wants the ball to feet and I think he knows he can cause damage today.

This is the position he made his name in as a youngster and at leverkusen, and its time united started utilizing him properly.

Hopefully he can keep up the performance and not run out of steam.

Nanis end product first half has been very poor.

Blackburn look little to no threat on the offensive. I wouldnt exactly agree with this game being thrown, bit too extreme. But if united can inject just a little bit more tempo second half, and keep feeding berbatov the ball, there is only one result coming from this.

ShooterSF

Every time I see Nanis shot at the edge of the box when he wins it off the defender I cringe. Macheda was in front of him 10 yards from goal unmarked simple pass

Agree with you there, but I think its just he knows he can cause damage today, and he wants to impress. He can be petulant at times, but it happens in every team.

He is a guy with exceptional vision control and passing ability, and he assumes those around him can do the same, Wayne Rooney is the exact same when a ball isnt put into his feet so I wouldn't think too much about it. Anyone thats played football has had someone shout at them for a poor pass, or shouted at a team mate, its a simple pat on each others back at half time and its forgotten.

Maybe so just noticed the few games and more this afternoon, not nice to see. Yeah i am sure is frustrated but FFS just get on with. How does he we fans feel how about him.

On plus great to see Carrick not in squad, hopefully the writing is on the wall for him and fergie to see we need a top class ACM.

When you take longer than your missus to get ready you may well be straying into "metrosexual" territory.

Anyone else think Fergie's just resting Carrick for City and Spurs?:(

The two of them went past metro-sexual months ago, I'm thinking of changing that 'metro' to a 'homo', tbh.

Pfft Jesus has better things to be doing like moving the sun around in knock.

that attempted pass by berba was crap its like he wasnt arsed

MagicMarker

Jaysis Neville got clattered.

That's a guaranteed red for Neville later when he retaliates.

Dave!

Scholes has been absolute gash so far

We need to go a goal down before we start to play lately, perhaps that might help:(

Yay Cannon foot coming on

3hn2givr7mx1sc

Gibson getting reeady to come on.

What a shít match.

everdead.ie

Nani's passing has been terrible so far giggs off for Gibson

Dave!

John O'Shea is just not on the right wavelength

Pat would give us alot more pace in attack

Lukker-

Robinson's got a good delivery.

Le King

WD Gibbo

MagicMarker

Strong from Gibson there.

3hn2givr7mx1sc

I would have thought that Nani would come off and Giggs move out to the left.

FFS, I hate Sky, can't get any signal for SS1.:mad:

Dave!

Man I'd love for us to be able to score from corners again

PHB

I think Fletcher and Evra should come on for Neville and Scholes.

MementoMori

Old men of Giggs, Scholes and Neville all looking their age today.
