As i said initally, it's the hatred the some seem to have for him that i can't get my head around.

You don't need pace to jog alongside the man you are marking and stay with them rather than standing still and letting them run..
I don't hate him, I actually wanted United to sign him before they did, but he's never pushed on from the midfielder he was at 22 and he's just become an awkward hybrid footballer, he doesn't fit in any position and he doesn't fit at Manchester United, he can occasionally be effective and has had a few purple patches of adequacy, but he's so far beneath what United should be aiming for he angers everyone.. That and the £#%&!ing snide shit he does
blundering into and attempting to hurt Bale last night and treading on Naingolan for instance
just idiotic.
