UEFA Champions League/Europa League 2010/11 Matchday 3 *** Spoilers ***

That was really, really depressing. Only Nani, Desilva and Evra looked bothered. How Park and Macheda played for as long as they did i'll never know. And just why someone thought we would need a 5 man midfield against that lot is just bizarre.
 
Even though Spurs lost, considering the first half it almost feels like a win; I'm going to bed happy. :p
 
United need two central midfielders.

Fletcher and Carrick simply dont know how to bring a ball forward and eat up space, its pass pass pass and never gaining any territory or applying any pressure, if you pass all the time and take a million touches before you do it like fletcher, even dross like this turkish lot just pick a man, mark up and cut the passes out.
If you carry the ball into space, then someone has to commit to stop you, you create runners as you alter angles, and create space as players commit to close you down.

Neither Carrick or Fletcher do this, Anderson was doing this, and when he picked the ball up and ran with it was the only time we looked threatening going forward.
Of course, playing a 19 year old boy on his own up front with no support meant that we were going to create very little anyway.

Oh, and Park, 70+ minutes of absolutely **** all what a complete waste of time he was.
 
What city wouldn't want him? Manchini see a player or should I say the Arab owners see a player... Hhm I like him ill buy him!

Rooney + Bale January business done.
I would love him at City but i just dont see it...especially as we have Johnson,Silva,Milner who can play on the left. I cant really see him joining either although he would be a top signing.
 
Well once again we are saved from a dire 0-0 draw by one moment of magic. Quite how we managed to once again create pretty much nothing in 90 mins with such a huge share of possession I'll never know. Ridiculously negative tactics, Chelsea or Arsenal would probably have got 4 or 5 against that lot :(

Fergie in completely out of his depth in european games shocker. Far too often over the years he's done that in games that he should kill off or playing it safe instead of doing what they did the best and get at teams.

No denying he's great domestically but in Europe you have won Champions leagues in spite of fergie. A better manager in europe would have won 5 champions leagues titles with the teams they have had.

bale doesn't just play on the left, he owns the left. no one better in the world imo and he's been at it for 18 months now. i hope he stays faithful to spurs as we really have stuck by him, he wasn't on a winning side for a long time but he's really sorted himself out now.
