Hopefully James Wilson off for Falcao at half time.

Anyone watching this on NBCSN? Who's the co-commentator? Ex United I think?

We're well on top and playing good stuff.

Play like in the 2nd half and we should win this comfortable

irishfeen

Very average first half from United.

Rooney's strength is needed, missing him today. We still look like scoring though.
Still think 3-1 is on the cards

Swap ye for Michael Owen?

Didn't push on after we went 1-0 up. Passing went a bit off. A bit more urgency is needed in the second half.

Haven't heard Mata's name in about 20 mins... Very average half from utd... It's really noticeable Van Gaals "possession" football v's the pace and power of Fergie's teams of old

Yeah our final ball and crossing needs to improve but they're making it very hard for us. They've basically parked the bus and that's including Diouf who is dropping in.

Wouldn't be surprised to see Falcao on soon given his ability in the air and we don't look like getting in behind the defence with pace.

Falcao on for second half, and big Fell will need a neck rub.

Any day of the week.

On Mata, this is seemingly the norm for him now

Quandary

This is one of those games where we miss Blind. Carrick moves the ball too slowly for my liking. RVP is having a very poor game, as is Mata and Herrera(cross aside).

I wouldn't mind seeing Falcao come on for RVP but it will probsbly be for Wilson. I wouldn't be surprised to see Januzaj come on for Mata.

We have a lot of the ball but this is far from a good performance IMO. We need to push on and score early in the 2nd half.

My feelings exactly, Stoke barely threatened. Fellani and Herrera missing sitters.

A bit more from the front men and we can win this comfortably.

Whatsisname

Really evident how weak Mata is on the ball tonight

While Herrera missed an easy chance, if RVP had a right foot he could have squared it to Wilson for a tap-in

LuckyGent88

Really need to up the pace in this second half and try get the strikers into the game.

Mata and herrera really need to impose themselves more but I feel our best chance of creating a goal is going to come down our left hand side. Young is seeing a lot of the ball and hopefully we create something from this.

edgecutter

Unlucky not to be winning. Can't believe we have conceded with their first chance on goal. RVP and Wilson need to do more upfront.

keeponhurling

I had forgotten Stephen Ireland was still playing

This match is like a microcosm of his career

UnitedIrishman

Lacking some pace between midfield and attack. No one to run at their defence centrally really.

Chagan

Fellaini is about 96% elbow.

Phil Neville is talking about picking up fellani at his house....

****ing ref, its not a head injury

Piss off

Great noise at old Trafford...

He's seemingly about 5 seconds away from belting out the chorus of Endless Love.

As it stands, WH up to fourth . . .

RVP struggling with a knock

keeponhurling

Not the greatest of games so far

Liam McPoyle

RVP anonymous again, get him off ta fcuk on the hour mark and bring in Falcao.

Neviller sounds like a child talking to adults about football.

Jammy goal which will add to the goals for Mata stats. Truth is he has been anonymous in this match.

Kylo Ren

We're doing well at those 'Pretend to cross it in' free-kicks that manage to bounce in.

Rojo reminds me of the bad ass Road House

LuckyGent88

Need to kick on now and secure the game.

Please do that anyway

Omg Phil... Just stop...please god
