Good win, Hernandez is special and Nani needs to work on his finishing.

Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.
Strange match, we were rubbish in the first half, but turned it on in the second - despite not changing anything major.
Hernandez is class. Really want to work out his goals per minute ratio. Class. On track for 15 goals in his debut season, mainly a sub! Crazy.

Yeah Chicharito is the next phenom. With such performance he deserves a place in the first XI.

Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.
I was there today (and got to see it for free
).
Simply watching Hernandez's movement is enough to confirm how good he is. He doesn't get picked out anywhere near as much as he should considering how good his runs are.
Scholes' pass to him in the first half when he got put through was just...
as well.
Great to hear the fans singing stuff like 'Ancelotti are you listening' and 'that boy Ronaldo, makes England look shite', made me think of 06/07 and how good that season was.

Now why didn't we play this formation on wednesday? I'd take Fletch on the right over Rooney on the left wing any day.
Let's just pray Rooney won't get banned for his silly elbow. Even not at his best, we'll need him in the next 2 games. But hey, if Gerrard can escape punishment for something like this, why shouldn't he?

He's just a fat scouse cunt, no other way of describing him.
His attitude is absolutely piss poor and to do that so early in a game with the run of games we've got next is bordering on insanity.
I pray to god the summer sorts him out.

Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.
I missed it. Any clips of the incidence?
As for Chicharito... well what can be said that we already haven't said?!
Guy's phenomenal! His movement, acceleration, composure, he's a real gem!

Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.
This is going to be yet another example of one rule for United, one for the rest of the league. If a player from any other team did something that was seen by the referee, and punished by the referee, FIFA dictates that the FA can't do anything about it. Hence the Gerrard thing, and to be honest it makes some sense given how many poor decisions are made each week by refs.
But this is Wayne Rooney. This is the British Press. This is a 45 second dedicated slow mo replay on Match of the Day. This is Sunday Supplement claiming that Clattenberg would have sent off a 'London player'. No Rooney will be banned, and will be the first and only person to be treated this way (unless another United player does something).

To be honest, he's playing so bad that It wouldnt be the loss some are making out. I would love to see his individual performance from yesterday, I think he lost the ball with either his first or 2nd touch 80% of the time.

Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.
PGMO acknowledges Clattenburg only saw the two players tripping but not the elbowing. Does that mean that he can be punished using images?

Not if the referee has said he's satisfied with the punishment he gave if he saw it, which he has.
Put simply, we've got off massively lucky for once.

Whilst reading that on the United site there was a preview of an interview with Nani. Did anyone notice that he wears his socks backwards?

Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.
I'm still in shock. I think United are too. This is the first time in recent memory the FA haven't just buckled under pressure from the media with regards to our players.
Interesting to note while all that was going on yesterday a league player was sentenced for being caught doing performance enhancing banned substances - and given a 4 month ban. Good to see Rio's precedence lives on.

Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.
Any Anderlecht fans out there?: Derniere Heure and other media confirm midfielder Adnan Januzaj (16) will join #mufc next season.
Also, we're going to lose tonight. And it will be scrappy, ill-tempered and controversial. Sigh.

Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.
So do you guys think you'll get f$%cked tonight and at the weekend? All the media attention will surely result in either Chelsea or Liverpool getting away with something, or Utd being harshly treated. A bet for Vidic to be sent off at Anfield looks good right now
But can't help but hope it does happen, after all it's a nice balance to Fergie using the media to put pressure on the ref's before matches.

Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.
I'd say it's more likely that Vida will go tonight, part of Torres' well honed run at United player, wait for hint of contact, fall down increduously technique.
And yes, I do think that United will be given a harsh decision or two, and that the media will jump and down with joy. Because that's what their sad lives come down to.
Not sure what Fergie could have done different with the Rooney thing. He predicted that the treatment of Rooney would be completely different from any other player, and indeed he was right. Who else could have feature sections of both MOTD and MOTD2 dedicated to them? Who else could have taken the back page headlines away from a Chelsea player SHOOTING SOMEONE? Only that loveable, fallable, United player Wayne.

We should play Evans then. Last time they faced each other he owned Torres.

Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.
I believe yes and yes. Torres and Anelka upfront, with Anelka dropping into the hole and out wide, leaving the central channels for Torres. In theory it's a great system tbh, but obviously hasn't quite gelled yet.
Given that, I expect us to lineup 451, very similar to how we started at Wigan, except with Berbatov alone upfront, flanked by Rooney and Nani.
It'll be tight and nasty, and with the league's most frequent card-dealer officiating, could well end with a few players taking early showers. :/

Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.
Agree on the 4-5-1 line up, as Chelsea have no choice but to come at us.
I wonder if there'll be any suprises in the team selection, though probably not with the injuries we have! I'd like to see Nani on the left with Rafael on the right, and O'Shea (did I just say that?!) or Wes at right back, and Rooney on the bench. Just because I think it'd suit a counter attacking style.
*waits to be told otherwise!*

I can see Giggs and Hernandez starting for some reason, I think we may go something similar to the 08/09 line up at OT.
