Greenlizard0's Weekend Football Thread [August 5/6/7 2011]

So I was really happy with the way we were playing till we decided to fall apart and concede 2 goals :( :p

Young and Welbeck both looking comfortable in the team and the added pace they bring is always welcome.
 
What is Ferdinand listed at? They were stood next to each other and Ferdinand looked quite a bit taller.

He's listed (on most sites, albeit random ones) as 6'2".

I thought he was at least 6'4"!

I'm not going to write De Gea off yet, he's obviously good but just made an error there.
 
Lol @ all the utd haters.

Lets see what happens after 38 games in the premier league and they judge SAF on the signing of De Gea
 
"OptaJoe: 11 - David De Gea conceded more goals from outside the box than any other goalkeeper last season in La LigaBBVA. Debut." --http://twitter.com/OptaJoe/status/100210124664221696

Well either Ferdinand is 6'6" or De Gea is barely 6 foot because I'm sure when they were stood next to each other Ferdinand was a good 2 inches taller than him.
 
United have had all the possession but City have been better in defence and attack. Richards and Evra both lucky to be on the pitch.

Don't think City have looked that good at all to be honest. We got through their defence a few times early in the game and either a poor "shot" or trying to pass it into goal meant we wasted a few opportunities.

Regarding their attack the free kick by Silva was nice but Rio should have been all over Lescott and De Gea will get to the Dzeko shot 9 times out of 10 in the future. Basically Utd's mistakes lead to the 2-0 imo.
 
I think I'll turn the MacBook off when Biz comes online to be honest, he's going to be unbearable.
 
Hope this doesn't hit De Gea's confidence too hard. Part of me wonders if we should have played Lindegaard in this, then started De Gea next weekend instead.

I'd like to see Berbatov come on second half now. Welbeck has done well, but he's not the oily Bulgarian when it comes to hanging a leg and getting the ball in the net.
