Manchester United FC Official Thread

We were a lot better going forward than we have been for ages, it wasn't a poor performance, just poor at the back.

What could Rio have done?

Not stand there like a lemon. Just swing a boot at it, take the player and the ball.

It was poor. Crossing, where we're usually great was probably our worse for a long time. The only decent ball put it was the one in the last minute which their defender put out for a corner.

Everyone still confident Alexander Ferguson is the right man for the job?

Jones was giving him dodgy back passes all game, can't really blame De Gea.

How about the crosses for both our goals?

Was waiting for you to say that.

You will still do fine if you come 2nd i reckon.

Depends who we'd get in the last 16. Barcelona/Madrid then we're finished.

Probably because Benfica have qualifyed, and we'll finish 2nd and draw Barcelona or some crap.

+ I have money on Benfica finishing 1st.

Hopefully Galati smash them then.

Should of had Morrison on the bench

Barca is reserved for Arsenal if they qualify

Sorry.

They were the only good ones, seriously.

All the others were quite wank to be perfectly honest.

I just thought the whole performance lacked urgency. The attack was just as bad as the defence at times. It was more frustrating to watch knowing what the players are capable of

Yeah, but you'd said the only good cross in was late on, when both our goals had come from good crosses.

Shut up Point.

What about Fabio's cross that lead to Berbamiss.

But look at the other crosses though. Just find it frustration that they were over hit or hit straight at a Benfica players.

Evra and Nani was probably our best players tonight

Valencia, Young and Berbatov I thought were rather disappointing

O well, let's fuck Basel up. Carrick can't play in it though so I expect Rooney will be in midfield.

Press will jump on De Gea's mistake

i dont know why you are complaining about crosses,ofcourse majority will be poor if they werent teams would score 20 goals every game

its not like players make bad crosses on purpose..

Our Champions League campaign has been piss poor this season Seriously getting annoyed with these lackluster performances. We're crying out for a CM and the one which has shown the most promise and creativity is out until christmas.

At least we scored more than one goal.

Didn't say it was

Our crosses are usually great though, just felt they were quite awful today. Except from the two goals, they were mostly over hit and didn't trouble the Benfica defence.

Another note, why are our corners always crap? We need to work on them. Before someone says "but we scored one against Liverpool" we rarely get a decent one in there, been like it for the last 3 seasons

Technically that was Brown

We're still going to face quality opposition if we're 1st or 2nd.
