Liverpool dragged Mata and Fellaini wide when with the ball and played through the middle. When they didn’t have the ball Henderson or Allen, along a full back, double teamed Mata and Fellaini a lot.
I genuinely forgot he was playing for a large chunk of the second half. He was hopeless.

Utd fans even made up an amusing little ditty about him kissing the badge on his chest and putting in a transfer request.[/QUOTE]

His name is rio and he watches from the stand
I forgot Carrick was playing for most of the match.
Playing some decent stuff at times against West Ham. 2-0 up after a Rooney brace.
Much better display today, even if West Ham were awful. Kagawa, Mata and Rooney linked up well throughout and it looked like United of old on the break at times.
Moyes did well in bringing in a few of the fringe players. The freshness made a difference. West Ham had nothing of note in the whole match for De Gea to worry about. Fellaini looked inspired after the cameo from the other night.
As I’ve said before problem for Man U is they can’t beat anyone even half competent anymore. They are still bullying and beating up the cannon fodder as well as they ever did under Ferguson. Olympiakos were probably one of the weakest in the last 16. West Ham yesterday, that sort of game is still routine. If you split Man U league form against sides 1-10 in top half and 11-20 in bottom half it reads:
Top Half - P14 W2 D4 L8 Pts 10
Bottom Half - P16 W13 D2 L1 Pts 41

Thats a fucking stunning insight I must say.
You could see signs of Mata settling in a bit and gaining confidence to attack the goal himself. Kagawa looked decent too, although lacking sharpness. There was an element of luck to both of Rooney’s goals and he was a bit wasteful with other opportunities. They did seem to control the game well enough though. You’d expect it though.

Run along now to the Sydney Swans or Cronulla Sharks or whatever excuse for a sport they follow in that shithole you call home.

Indeed, if you split Man U league form into home and away they have the best away record in the PL this season.
Home - P 14 W6 D3 L5 Pts 21
Away - P16 W9 D3 L4 Pts 30
Their inability to beat the likes of Newcastle, WBA, Fulham, Southampton, Everton and Spurs (previously looked upon as handy fixtures) at OT this season has been their downfall.
Followed by a stunning retort. Look Manuel, MBB thinks you’re great. You’ve arrived.

I think all that means is that they are shit mate.
This season? Yes, yes they are
This is so set up for United to beat City.
Wonderful analysis.
How does it feel to be cheering on the filth tonight mate?
A bit like the time I rode a 6ft 2’’ 16 stone Aussie bird (I’m 5f 10) - it had to be done but I moved quickly along with my life.
