Seriously they are

Pleading for a foul with every tackle that happens now, just because of the sending off

Maybe this Justice thing has gone to their heads too much

You say that, but what's Valencia done? What's RvP done?

The entire team has been ****. It's not just Nani. At least I've seen Nani trying to get the ball, the other two forwards look like they're hiding from it.

Stop trying to defend your man crush, yes RVP has been invisible (yet again might I add) but at the end of the day he's the furthest forward and is pretty dependant on the service he receives and Nani has seen a lot more of the ball than anyone else of our attacking 4. All Kagawa has accomplished is to win free kicks deep in our own half by being fouled on the turn, we haven't got the ball to Valencia nearly enough and Giggs has just been fairly pointless.

Carrick, the two centre backs and Rafael have all played well though (probably why the score is still 0-0)

Cleverley on for Giggs at the start of the second half, give Nani 15 more minutes and if he doesn't improve pull him and go 4-4-2 with Kagawa out on the left with Hernandez up front with RVP

Only one player two footed there

Evans going in with two feet with studs up? Oh dear ref.

They do what they want don't forget.

Shamikebab · 23 Sep 2012 at 14:26

Notice how Evans legs are pointing away from the player though and down towards the ground? Shelvey is going in with his studs directly against the player, it's dangerous.

MissChief · 23 Sep 2012 at 14:26

Both should have been sent off IMO.

Typical Man U players pressurising the ref into sending him off. Evans in with two feet.

Two feet off the ground? Where?

Comments like this are retarded. It's like this at every ******* football game, even at your home games!

Not to that extent. It's like watching 40,000 Pepe's cry out in agony as he takes a glancing finger across the thigh.

Indeed, not the worst tackle I've ever seen but it's definitely a dangerous one.

He just looks like a brainless, hot-headed idiot anyway.

I wasn't mocking Hillsborough, for once in my life I have gained a lot of respect for Liverpool fans for their conduct during this last week. But it all went out the window from the first whistle when they began acting like utter cretins again

Spenty · 23 Sep 2012 at 14:28

Only idiotic man united fans would claim it was a red. That picture says it all.

You think the same about your fans right?

This in my opinion and this is coming from a Utd fan. Both were rash.

Any prior case in pro football of two players sent off in a collision?

Here's a gif of it for anyone that wants to see it in real time.

Nani is just your player to hate at the moment Tom. Nani has offered us much more than Valencia has so far (I'm not saying he's played well, he hasn't), not sure how you can argue with that. It was the same in midweek, certain fans calling for Nani's head at half time. In the second half then he was arguably the player of the half and created 3/4 chances. Valencia continued his first half form and was pretty poor.

Basically if anyone comes off before Giggs then it's madness. He's not helping in attack or defence.

fez · 23 Sep 2012 at 14:29

Really poor from United. I have no idea why we are playing giggs, he's been very poor and anonymous. Nani has been dire for a few games, never gives the ball when he should so the rest of the team stops running.

Shamikebab · 23 Sep 2012 at 14:30

You could see it coming, he should have been on a yellow already for the late challenge on Rafael. Luckily for him Halsey is pretty lenient.
