It's gone to **** after a good start.

IvySlayer

Fergie should try and flog his book to some fans :P

hilarious. Giggs' wheelchair ran out of juice...

Oregano_State

nice little surge by Giggs there in fairness. He still has pace.

miralize

Hilarious referee.

Jesus this ref is nuts with the yellow cards, Rafael needs to shut his mouth.

Timmyctc

This ref is fecking useless. Firing out yellow cards like they are going out of fashion.

ankles

coming...

scudzilla

Why have i no confidence we'll see this game out?

All i can see happening is going in at HT 1-0 up, Moyes deciding to take that, makes some crazy substitutions and we get away wit a 1-1 draw

Oregano_State

whoosh! lucky.

user2011

Should of had another by now

Come on United!

Your Airbag

Ref's giving people more cards than Hallmark.

We have gone down a gear.

IvySlayer

OG scoring again after such a drought is good

Paul Tergat

Great turn by Shinji but want him to be selfish there

Lucas Hood

Nice work by Kagawa . Maybe should have shot himself though .

Oregano_State

And that is why Kagawa should be playing. Great turn.

Drexel

Ha this ref is almost guaranteed to send someone off. Rafael is my bet if he's kept on!

Very poor half of football, very little quality from either side.

Sociedad might want to change their studs. If they could string some passes together and move faster and shoot straighter they'd be in this. Utd seem to be playing with some freedom. Rooney very lively.

we started really well and looked dangerous and for some reason let the foot off the gas. very frustrating

user2011

Real S. Are there for the taking United should be looking for 4/5 goals here.

Maximus Alexander

People are giving Kagawa too much credit. One or two nice moves in an otherwise poor half from him. He's gotten a chance and he hasn't really shown much so far.

I see Tony is still playing with his fake touchscreen.

Think it's a bit harsh to judge him on that half. Hasn't got a sniff of constant football this season

His right trouser leg looked about 4 inches short

Leverkusen are ahead in the other game.

I guess these posts are a sign of how good the football has been this half...

He's not a winger. Plus its like his 2nd start of the season.

user2011

Also he is playing out of his natural position. So I'm not sure how he can be judged fairly.

But when has he ever? I know he hasn't been given an extended run in the team but when he does play he doesn't look anything out of the ordinary.

I completely agree. I never saw him at Dortmund and I keep hearing about how incredible he was, but I've yet to see a sniff of it.

sea_monkey

yeah that player that never plays.
he's no good at playing

I saw bits and pieces at Dortmund but not enough to form an informed opinion of him. But you can clearly see he has great qualities. His touch and passing in tight situations is head and shoulders above most in the United squad. Would love to see him given a chance to prove himself in his natural position but I fear that may not happen anytime soon

Haven't got a touch since half time, it's a matter of time by the looks of it.

Zico

Fuking shambles

Professey Chin

What in the sh!t was that!

Lovely Bloke

Giggs is such a fúcking liability at this stage.

Timmyctc

Evra has been by far the biggest liability this match. We should just play him as a Left winger.

kryogen

Ball and a half from Shinji

Oregano_State

RVP-hil Jones there at the back post.
