The plan is probably to be behind by the time he gets subbed , hes been a liability since the 30th minute of the game.

no, not blaming Anderson, and Giggs should have done better. However I think he was expecting Anderson to pull away from the marker and head to the right (back post), whereas instead he continued his run tucked right behind the defender. He wouldn't have got the ball even if it had been inch perfect (as the defender would have got to it first).

which still would have been better. there could have been a own goal. chipping it out of play was a woeful effort.

we need to score before J.Cole gets on .

got a bad feeling about him

Could possibly have been a red that. Very naughty.

Obertan on now to run at Ivanovic who has a yellow card. on for Sir Ryan preferably.

you miss my point. I think if Anderson would have pulled away to the right he would have been able to make the cross and have a free header at goal. Might be wrong (will have to watch the replay of it again, mind).

A studs-up lunge into Giggs' knee? Typical Gray really. When you see some challenges that get you a red these days, such as that Russian bloke for Everton last week, that was much worse.

would definitely like to see Obert-on

giggles and rooney haven't had the best day have they.

he had no chance mate.

We just dont have an attacking edge, we could play for days with and not score. £#%&! all chance of us doing it in the next half hour when its most needed, no chance of us getting one though.

Anyone who wouldnt take a 0-0 now is a nutter.

There is just no attacking threat whatsoever is there.

if you get a knock, hold your head, the game gets stopped.

I'd prefer Owen on for Ando. Not that Ando has done owt wrong, just reckon its the best fit.

If anyone is going to score on that pitch it will be Rooney. Or possibly Drogba or Lampard, maybe Anelka.

good effort
