Offside. . .damn! grin

Berbatov. . . . , GOAL!!!!!!!!!!

Oh no, offside!!!
Re: Manchester United Fan Thread: Forever Reds by Cristalz(f): 5:25pm On Feb 08, 2009
So Giggs is the corner man for today? I seriously have my doubts. . .first one was too weak,second one too powerful. *sigh*

Especially when Carrick is better with it.
Fergie's decisions sometimes make one cringe.
Re: Manchester United Fan Thread: Forever Reds by Cristalz(f): 5:28pm On Feb 08, 2009
Now this is an interesting game!
My sweethearts at the back had better watch it.  .  .the way they keep slicing through the defense is not funny anymore.

@S
Is it Fergie that decides who takes the kicks, or the captain?
Re: Manchester United Fan Thread: Forever Reds by Nobody: 5:29pm On Feb 08, 2009
The Hammers bench is so weak.
Worst case scenerio, a draw.

Would Giggsy be taking it from the bench??
Re: Manchester United Fan Thread: Forever Reds by Nobody: 5:33pm On Feb 08, 2009
Collison is a fool !!

@Sauron
You don't seem to get.  .  .I'm asking who picks the player(s) to take the kicks - the corners and free kicks. Usually a particular player or players are selected for the duty. Who makes the selection is what I'm asking.

Anyone can take it but Giggsy being a veteran can't be questioned. . . . .
Carrick's dead ball delivery his superb and i expect Giggsy as a player to realise that and let Carrick take em.

In some teams, some players nominate themselves for whatever they are good at and if the rest of the team agrees, then kosher

Other teams, it is what the coaching staff sees in training that helps them make an informed decision on who to do what on the pitch

This is only based on situations that i have been in, heard off or seen with my eyes!
Re: Manchester United Fan Thread: Forever Reds by Nobody: 5:44pm On Feb 08, 2009
Battle of the midfield.
W'Ham might just surprise United. . .i'm beginning to feel it. undecided
Re: Manchester United Fan Thread: Forever Reds by Cristalz(f): 5:45pm On Feb 08, 2009
Thank you Saint Devil Sauron.

You too Brash.  .  .that was illuminating. Giggs should know better.  .  .he's poor with corners.Just once in a while good ones.

West Ham's defense is well-organized.  .  .if we don't up our tempo and attempt more shots it just might get frustrating soon enough. And that's when mistakes happen.
Come on United!!
Re: Manchester United Fan Thread: Forever Reds by Cristalz(f): 5:47pm On Feb 08, 2009
See Jose busily taking notes. . .UCL ain't no joke this time around grin
Re: Manchester United Fan Thread: Forever Reds by Cristalz(f): 5:50pm On Feb 08, 2009
Half time already??
Both teams have been head-to-head.  .  .only complaint I have is their defense seems to be tighter than ours. Only adv is our GK is better.  .  .but shyte does happen.
Fergie remember we need a win o. . .can't have Rafa grinning smugly all week grin

Come on United!!

We need penetration on the flanks. . . . I expect Nani/Park to come in the 2nd half.

Giggsy has been a waste-pipe on the flanks. . . .He doesnt track back and delivery has been rubbish.
Take Scholesy n Giggsy out. . . . .Bring in Park n Fletcher(water carriers) and you would see incursions and creativity.
Our attack is too static and Tevez is not doing much running on the shoulders of Hammers defence.

I expect a better 2nd half though.

Surely, SAF will panic a likkle grin
Re: Manchester United Fan Thread: Forever Reds by Cristalz(f): 5:56pm On Feb 08, 2009
@S
I think Tev and Berba have been okay,they just lack deftness and creativity today. That's Ronny's specialty.  .  .he should make his way into the middle more often and help out there.
And someone needs to tell him to quit running straight into the midst of defenders. He can't get past all the time.

Scholes is the only one attempting the shots,which have been precious few. Park is definitely a better choice than Giggs, but maybe Scholes should stay on.

@Bluediva
SAF doesn't panic.  .  .he ponders grin Besides,he doesn't need to go around spying like Jose.Hez got his own henchmen who are busy observing Mourinho's team too.

Tev and Berba will complete 90 minutes( we have few options for em on the bench).
Ronnie has been good and he won't stop knocking doors on that left side for Man Utd.
I think one of Scholes/Giggsy should come out for Park. . . . . .Let Giggsy move to the middle and partner Carrick while Park hugs the right flank.


Scholes is the only one attempting the shots,which have been precious few. Park is definitely a better choice than Giggs, but maybe Scholes should stay on.

We can't carry 2 old men on this plane. . . . . .One of em should stay on the bench and let the young blood do it.

Jose is trying to advertise himself to Chelsea fans. . . . . . .I AM HERE, SACK SCOLARI. grin grin grin
Re: Manchester United Fan Thread: Forever Reds by Cristalz(f): 6:08pm On Feb 08, 2009
What's happening? Why is the defense so leaky??

Re: Manchester United Fan Thread: Forever Reds by superstar1(m): 6:10pm On Feb 08, 2009
SAF had better pull out scoles and Giggs with immediate effect!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

See the way that black dude went on a staring contest with Ronaldo grin

Common Hammers!

Time to bring in the chinco to run at the Hammers.

Delete the 's' in your name and support accordingly tongue grin


They are more dangerous when they attack than we are. It's annoying. Fergie shouldn't leave the subs till too late. . .we need to change things up there.It's like these guys have mastered all our moves. New moves are in order!!
Re: Manchester United Fan Thread: Forever Reds by Cristalz(f): 6:18pm On Feb 08, 2009
Silly Lucas. Do it again and get a red please grin
Re: Manchester United Fan Thread: Forever Reds by Nobody: 6:19pm On Feb 08, 2009
Basically same play as the first half.
A mistake from either side will determine this one.
Re: Manchester United Fan Thread: Forever Reds by debosky(m): 6:20pm On Feb 08, 2009
Vidic shoulda been booked. Is this referee suffering from hypermetropia? angry
