"Nani has a hamstring injury which is a little bit worse than we thought," said Moyes. "He is probably going to be missing for a few weeks."

We only seem to be dropping points against the teams in the top half, so fairly confident of a win tomorrow.

2-0 United

I'd prefer this to be at Upton Park tbh. Not confident of beating anybody at OT at the moment.

Finished my exams tomorrow. I can almost taste the beer and see the game....

No excuse for a bad result. Should be 3 points for United.

Professional Griefer

COME ON UNITED!!

Lord TSC

What a save.

Professional Griefer

What a glorious chance that was.

kryogen

Decent start, better ball from Jan and could have had another chance.

Jesus I hate the quality on Setanta.

The sound quality coming from the colour commentator is awfully gratey.

The sound of the crowd is too washed out too with emphasis on the commentators. Ahhhh.

I read somewhere before that when the commentators sound like that, they're not actually at the game, only viewing it on a monitor in a studio somewhere.

I wouldn't be surprised if that were the case with Setanta.

MagicIRL

There's goals in this game. 3-0 United again? Rooney x1 and Januzaj x2. GO!

Also; Setanta sucks.

Ruins the atmosphere of the game altogether

True. Although I did suffer through his nasally commentary in the Liverpool game.

We all suffered. "World class.... in front of our eyes"

Tony V getting forward warms my heart so it does. A Christmas miracle?

They should be sponsored by Vaseline 'cos it's as if somebody smeared it all over the screen with the blurry,washed out picture.

Mars Bar

We've started very brightly.

This free is Rooney territory

kryogen

Get in there, great position, team looking alright offensively?!

MagicIRL

Dangerous free-kick....

Too Tough To Die

Why don't Setanta use the premier league commentators?

Mars Bar

Close!

Ah! Unlucky.

Great opening play from United.

Danger781

Pleasing display so far

Have a great quality stream, feck that Setanta crap :pac:

Mars Bar

great pressure high up the pitch but Welbeck should have done way better there

Missing out on the wisdom that is Matty Holland.

Mars Bar

Great working back by Adnan

Danger781

How was that not a foul? He tanked through Clevs :pac:

MagicIRL

Adnan desperate for the first-touch volley goal.

Mars Bar

United need to be making something out of these chances soon

Tearing up McCartney on the right side. Whipping in a few nice crosses, too.

Alpha Dog 1

United very strong down the right so far.

ScummyMan

Very encouraging start

Lovely Bloke

Morrisson could have been off there

Danger781

Adrian is a very decent keeper

ScummyMan

"Whipped in by Rooney " as Januzaj curls in the corner with his left leg.

Fcuking Setanta.

Liam O

It's depressing how little the players seem to want the ball. They just run away from each other.

niallo27

Only a matter of time before utd score you would think.

the only way he xoulda been off is if he injured himself kicking clevz. Never ever ever a red

Mr.Crinklewood

Mrs Crinklewood fancies Adrian.
