Best I've seen United playing as a team so far this season and ironically, this might well be the match they finally get beaten. ha!

for god's sake, one of our midfielders should be closing VdV down from plays like that. Lazy.

Spurs tend to play well against united but always loose

Rafael was lucky there....only a yellow

Bale VS Rafael on a yellow should be interesting!

Shamikebab · 16 Jan 2011 at 16:39

Not really, it wasn't two footed and it was from the front. And he actually got some of the ball.

Mr-White · 16 Jan 2011 at 16:40

It's yellow for Rafael, now he's facing Bale for an hour on a tight rope lol

1 or 2 footed, you can't lunge in studs up and off the ground. Could have gone either way.

Carrick is appalling, Anderson should be playing. He's just so uncomfortable on the ball.

Everything is bypassing our central midfield at the moment. We're either going long or down the flank.

He was high, but only 1 foot and not really a lunge IMO.

This.

Ref is giving some very soft freekicks, really breaking up the flow of the game

1640: Transfer news: Everton have accepted a bid for South Africa winger Steven Pienaar from Chelsea but rebuffed interest from Tottenham, manager David Moyes has confirmed.

FrankJH · 16 Jan 2011 at 16:43

some REALLY daft freekicks indeed

[J.D.C] · 16 Jan 2011 at 16:45

+ Rooney.

FrankJH · 16 Jan 2011 at 16:46

Rafael needs to calm down - and fast

edit - then he goes on a really good run lol

From the front has a pretty big chance of being a leg breaker.
Studs up, excessive force.
Could have gone either way
