Boxing Day Football **SPOILERS**

What a stupid line up, what a pathetic performance so far.
Giggs, Neville and scholes are doing nothing, Fletcher is just watching the game pass him by, and Tevez and Rooney are getting no service what so ever.
 
i do hope united play better after new year, they are boring the hell out of me lately, and i cant remember the last time they looked comfortable to win.
 
Evans is useless, Fletcher is as anonymous as I've ever seen anyone. O'Shea is standing and watching.

Tevez and Rooney are working hard, Tevez is shifting the ball quickly which is nice to see, but Ronaldo needs to start running off the shoulder of Tevez/Rooney and taking the through ball.
 
I'm a stoke supporter and can honestly say i can see them winning this. Stoke are always getting there men back after attacking and they are playing really well. Lets hope they continue playing this well for the rest of the season.

Fullers had some good chances, shame his shoe came off and he slipped over :p Should be able to score in the 2nd half :)

Its so frustrating, he does a good thing by dropping Berbatoss and giving us some presence up front, then ruins it by taking all the pace out of the midfield and wings.
 
Stoke are coming at us, and we need to take advantage and hit them on the break, how are you supposed to that with Giggs, Scholes and Neville?

Credit to Stoke though, not many teams actually play football against us.

Yep. I've never seen such a slow team at Man Utd.
O'Shea, Neville, Giggs, Scholes, Fletcher and Evans are all incredibly slow, frighteningly slow in the case of Evans.

Ronaldo, Tevez and Rooney make their moves onto the realise they are leaving the man with the ball behind because he's too slow. the pace of players like Anderson, Nani and even Park could destroy Stoke.

Also, has anyone ever seen a player who dilly-dallies on the ball more than Fletcher does? I've never seen him 1-touch anything.

If standing in front of every free-kick, throwing the ball away and jumping in with forearms is playing football against us, then yes.

Stoke have got a pretty decent record against the Big "5" this season. Beat Arsenal + Villa at home (6points) draw against Liverpool away (1point). Hopefully take a point here (will help my silverpaw predictions lol) and a draw at chelsea away (maybe hoping for too much)
 
Rooney and Ronaldo should have been sent off by now but the ref protects the so called big teams again.
