Sparkles Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Positives to come out of last nigh tafter a first half game that looked more like 2 pub teams going at it The much maligned defence, playing in this back 3 system that needs to be abandoned, held tough with Rojo probably the best. Falcao bust his gut and would have had one goal except for a small deflection of a defender. If anyone doubted young James Wilson's potential that should be put to bed.The kid ,19,has the ability and pace to be a big player for United. Negatives ....I was banging on weeks ago about Valencia's foul throw ins by not putting the ball well behind his head well he has now decided to lift his back foot up in the air by at least 12 inches .He actually did it twice the ref letting him off the first time ,the second nearly resulted in a goal for QPR. Under 12's manage not to foul throw and here we have an experienced international who doesn't know the rule,beggars belief, what's wrong with him and the coaching staff ??? That's a horrible small pitch Loftus Rd. If they do manage to stay up,which I doubt, they should either move or increase its size and lose a few seats. There is no room to play attractive football with any width.I guess it suits QPR but doesn't lend itself to free flowing football. Cambridge away Friday maybe we will see the forgotten members of the squad Fletcher , Anderson, Januzaj etc and maybe our new keeper ,then again LVG wont want to lose this one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy The Kid Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Saw United won at QPR , they are still,struggling to find the rhythm that they were looking for . Not good enough for a place in the top four next May . I have to bear with it , FA is United only chance for success but will be difficult to achieve that .

carmine Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Just chatting to a mate watching United, says Di Maria is upfront and Phil Jones is taking corners, LvG doing things is way You'll struggle to get an answer to the Phil Jones taking corners!! The question i'd also like to ask is how LvG seems to think Fellaini is meant to fit into a side aspiring to play a short passing game? Either play hoof and pick the ridiculous looking bloke or sell him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrRed Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Sell him,or train him to be a central defender of course he could also become a rather expensive luxury of a substitute to stick on in the chasing of a winner in the last ten minutes of a game! He also needs to cut his hair regularly to be taken seriously as a decent footballer i mean when he is older and grey/white give him a red nose and voila! Pineapple on his head was the same....<deleted>! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who knows about the money anymore ? Just in the past two years a $20mil player was worth $40m and increasing all the time. In two years time a $40mil player could fetch $60-80. Pogba, for me, is the most promising young player in the game. Seems like a decent sort as well. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redrus Posted January 28, 2015 Author Share Posted January 28, 2015 ^ All fair comments mate, and I bear him no ill at all, he's gone on to prove Fergie very very wrong indeed. Like I said previously, I was sure that he'd get a run after the Morrison debacle and understand his frustration completely, it must beat ours as fans into second place. Fergie was such a bull nosed barsteward though, I believe now, very much to the detriment of the Club at the end and, in the long run. Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't swap that temperament for all the silver we won, but in the end, and considering his £2 million earned last as an Ambassador, he's not done too badly out of the Glazers has he.! redrus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone watching the reserve games could see that Pogba had huge potential abut it was reported that SAF's comment was "your time will come" Unfortuantly that might have registered in days gone past but not with today's youth and crazy money on offer elsewhere. Morrison was a different story I'm sure United did everything they could to get Morrison on track even representing and helping him in his court appearances.Kid maybe needs to get OS and hopefully mature and get his life on track.. Reserve fixture the other night featured Mc Nair , Lingaard , Powell, Blackett amongst other promising youngsters ,hopefully their United future will be sorted out. Mc Nair apparently had a suberb game and scored a great goal.. Even Anderson had a run, apparently no one wants him. When he first came to United as an attacking, left footed, mid fielder I think we all had hopes he would be the goods,never realised his potential.

MrRed Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Anderson and potential should be cast in stone as the hallmark of paying massive amounts of money for south Americans that find it really difficult to adapt to the English game although 8 years later you would of thought he would of adapted! Bad signing,bad player,bad scouting....and a very bad decision to give him a long contract. December 2010... Anderson signs new dealAnderson's outstanding recent form and undoubted potential has been recognised with a new four-and-a-half-year contract extension, which will keep him at Old Trafford until at least June 2015.The Brazilian has been excellent for the Reds since making a full recovery from the knee ligament injury he suffered last season, and in the last few weeks has produced the type of performances that prove he can fulfil the huge potential with which he arrived in Manchester in 2007. Sir Alex Ferguson clearly has high hopes for the 22-year-old. "We are delighted he has signed a new contract," the boss told Man Utd.com Anderson has developed tremendously since joining us and he has fantastic potential at only 22; he is going to be a really top player." Anderson feels he can achieve everything he wants to in his career at Old Trafford. He said: "This is the best club to be at and I would like to thank everyone for the great support I have received over the years. "I am looking forward to winning many more trophies with United and I am so pleased to have signed a new contract." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkles Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Carrick out for 4 weeks with a muscle rupture LVG states at his press conference and Darren Fletcher in West Ham for talks. Leaving it a bit late and can only wish him well if it goes through. Been with the club since he was 11,true professional, over 200 appearances and not a recognised goal scorer but can remember a couple against the big teams that won the match. To get over his illness, Ulcerative Colitis, was a great effort and a testament to his character, not many do. I hope he eventually comes back to OT as a coach,something he has done while recovering.apparently well respected by the young brigade 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrRed Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Man Utd XI: De Gea, Valencia, Jones, Rojo, Shaw; Blind, Januzaj, Di Maria, Rooney; Van Persie, Falcao. Leicester XI: Schwarzer, Simpson, Wasilewski, Morgan, De Laet; Drinkwater, King, Schlupp; Vardy, Kramaric, Ulloa. Looks like he has gone straight back to a 5-3-2 but that 5 up front is a bit special on there day no steel in there against a very hard working team .....Rooney centre stage.
