1. Clean sheet. Nothing is more important than that. This was against West Ham, a very strong, hoofball playing team. Never has our defence looked more assured
than it did today.
2. Remember when we were on an unbeaten run in all competitions, lost to West Ham in the cup and then to Wolves where Jarvis gave us a horrendous time and, if I am not wrong, Rafael was the right back that day. Just goes to show how much Rafael has grown into probably the top right back in the premier league right now.
3. Our best passing game and probably our worst finishing game. Looked so good while passing the goal. Anderson is re-inventing himself. To be frank he never really got himself going at OT, till now. He and Cleverley, with Carrick at the back and Kagawa/Powell/Rooney would make up for a bloody good mid-field for Europe, where with Kagawa and Powell we will also have width in PL till we buy a good winger.
4. Nolan has to be one of the most effective under-rated mid-fielders in the league for quite some time.
5. Rooney's first touch and those long range shots have genuinely dropped down. His work ethic was never bad, but there has been a drop of at least yards of pace and good step down in finishing. The formation we are playing right now, we would need someone at Rooney's position to be one of the fastest. There were so many instances where the break was on, like the one Hernandez had, but RVP took too much to get into the box and Rooney was no where to be seen. All these signs explain our repeated interests in Lewandowski.
6. Saw 20 minutes of Spurs-L'pool game and managed to watch 20 minutes of Bale ripping apart Pool to shreds in every corner of the pitch. The colossal of mediocrity, Ashley Goddamn Young, came on for some 25 odd minutes and ripped himself into shreds. I would honestly give Bebe a go here!!!!

2) De Gea v Lindegaard

It might be slightly perverse to question what David de Gea is doing sitting on Manchester United's bench after Anders Lindegaard kept a clean sheet in the 1-0 win over West Ham but let's do it anyway. What is David de Gea doing sitting on Manchester United's bench? De Gea certainly has his faults – especially his ability to deal with crosses – but he pulls off saves that other goalkeepers can only dream of making and has kept United in matches on his own at times this season. Although Lindegaard made a good stop to deny Carlton Cole, he was not overworked by West Ham, whose best efforts mostly went high or wide. The Dane is a good goalkeeper but De Gea is a special one.

#MUFC injury news: Nani out for 4-5 weeks with hamstring injury, Valencia could return for next weekend's derby, Vidic may face Cluj.

**Metal Warrior** · 12-01-2012

What the FUCK am I watching?! 3-3 against Reading after 30 minutes. Entertaining as hell, but what an outrageously poor defence we've got. And Fletch is by far the worst player on our books at the moment. It hurts to say it, I've always liked him, but it seems like this illness was just too much to overcome. He's not anywhere near what's required of a Premier League footballer.

**three3-times** · 12-01-2012

Shocking. just shocking. Felt sorry for Rafa as well who imo, has been our best player all season...............

Winning is scant consolation. Just like last year, how the fuck are we top of the league with such an issue?!?!?!? We are lucky that citeh keep drawing an chelski have imploded.

Dont even think an returning Vida can sort it out.

Ando will be out about 3 weeks with a hamstring.........so that means scholes and giggs an fletch will get more fucking game time

JUST WANTED TO ADD, WTF IS SAF IS DOING WITH THE KEEPER SITUATION? DE DEA DID NOTHING WRONG AND NOW HE IS OUTTA THE SIDE??? NOTHING AGAINST ANDERS BUT HE WAS POOR TODAY AND ISNT BETTER THEN DDG

Rafael had an absolutely torrid first 30 mins. Also you didn't concede after he was subbed off.

Brilliant result! Had we not won here today it would've been beyond disgusting. A perfectly legal goal disallowed resulting in 1-2 instead of 0-3. And what a disgusting player Tevez is. Came on, behaved like an utter spastic and surely should get a retrospective ban for kicking out at the end. A piece of filth.

**three3-times** · 12-09-2012

manchester police are gonna be busy tonight

all players immense. all of em, cant fault any of em.

**santinomarella** · 12-09-2012

The performance was good today as well, would have been game over earlier if Young's goal rightfully stood. 6 points clear!!

**three3-times** · 12-09-2012

yep. shouldve been 3 nil

i just fear for our fans

Yeah, they need to send that midget fucker back to Fantasy Island where he belongs...

**F34R** · 12-09-2012

I must have missed this one lol. Was the game on today?

**santinomarella** · 12-09-2012

A fan came on the pitch after Rio as well, fair play to Joe Hart though who stopped him. He seems to be the only person associated with City that has some class.
