    You can totally see him saying "i'm batman" in the replay..

    joking aside his eyes were super slow to follow the finger when it went from right to left. You should never take a risk with head injuries.

    To be Fair Martials eyes always look a bit slow..almost like a lazy person trying to get out of bed in the morning..

    Watford have them sewn up. It'll take something jammy or very clever for United to get level at this rate.

    You've got to be right. Nothing he does on the pitch suggests he should be starting week in week out

    Second time I've seen Man Utd this season and they've been absolute garbage both times. Long may it continue.

    United were so desperate to hold onto their "star" player I wouldn't be surprised.

    Wonder who will he sub? Surely Herrera or mata on for Rooney..push Pogba forward


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,906 ✭✭✭✭PhlegmyMoses


    Is a senior ref seriously trying to argue that getting the smallest nick on the ball negates all other factors? I mean **** happens, refs get things wrong, and you need to move on from it. But when you have access to that kind of footage and knowledge that touching the ball doesn't mean no foul, how can you not get it right?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,858 ✭✭✭Manutd_4life


    Now for a dross half of us 'pressing' while Watford sit deep and play the counter attack game.

    This is really bad

    Hard to believe they'd do something like that considering all players can dip in form every now and then. Could be trying to justify the wage he's been paid too.

    What annoys me is 99 times out of 100, a gust of wind pushes a defensive player over outside his own box and it's a free.

    If the team are going to completely bypass the centre of the pitch then nobody in there is going to look good. Pogba, Ibra and Rooney are bypassed for balls out to Valencia who is a proven nothing player in a forward sense. It means everyone is trying to do everything themselves once they do get it. No team play at all.

    If Pep was manager, would Utd have this game wrapped up already?

    Well he is nearly 35 and playing in the toughest league.

    He's a busted flush. A beaten docket.

    Match threads would always raise your spirits when things are going poorly, thanks for your contribution to that :D

    Herrera for Rooney please!! Honestly thought mourinho would be strong enough to drop him. Need creativity in midfield

    :P Rooney had the ball and ended up tapping it out of play :rolleyes:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,163 ✭✭✭messinkiapina


    If Ferguson was still in charge Rooney would have been turfed out long ago surely.

    He had him one foot out the door before he left, only for Moyes to opt to go the other direction.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,858 ✭✭✭Manutd_4life


    Wouldnt be surprised if Watford get another goal


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,302 ✭✭✭✭A Dub in Glasgo


    Man United are dire

    Yeah he's been awful. I was very sarcastic in the thread dedicated to him in saying he was doing brilliantly... But if anyone says he was even average today needs their head examined




  • Rooney ffs

    There is a real malaise about them again
