Alex Ferguson was to blame for us not winning
slag rooney, fletcher, park etc off all you like, but the fact is, we had no striker on the bench again. it is £#%&!ing ridiculous and it's down to the manager.
i appreciate ronaldo/giggs/scholes can play upfront if needed, but when ole scores against reading and then isn't even on the bench against newcastle, it is wrong. ole would've buried the chance park hit the post with. 2 points dropped and it is fergies fault* *please don't confuse this minor criticism as a fergie out thread. it is not. |

The thing is, we can't win every game. Ok, we £#%&!ed up yesterday but we're still 7* points clear. It's easy to blame Ferguson for the result. If it wasn't for a few fine saves from Given, the post getting hit when we were on top in the 1st half and a goal line clearence from Solano, we would have won the game comfortably.

I think his biggest mistake was keeping Carrick on the bench. But what do I know, eh? |

the trouble with playing giggs or ronaldo up front
is that then you get park on the wing.
there was no £#%&!ing excuse for not having a striking option. even allowing for the fact that our better players all missed chances too and it wouldn't necessarily have won us the game and we are still 7 points clear. it's just £#%&!ing common sense. |

although god only knows what team it would actually make sense to play fletch against. newcastle played the same way they always play against us. that had 6-2 written all over it. only scholesy rememebered what playing against newcastle means. |

I agree.
I obviously would have taken the postion we are in now, had i been offered it at the start of the season. I realise a few of our players are versatile and can operate in other roles, but I was concerned in this game as some others (Shef U springs to mind) where there were "no goals" on the bench. Without wishing to get my boxers in a twist, we seem to have forgotton how many holes we got out of in 98/99 by having four strikers and normally two were on the bench. True strikers ability is not something everyone has, and the likes of Ole have proved time and time again that they have that inate knack of being in the right spot at the right time, I think Larsson has the same knack and presumably he won't be getting many weeks off over a three month spell. |

I would have started with this team yesterday;
FMy, but bear with me. GK; Edwin DL; Evra DC; Rio DC; Vidic DR; Neville MR; Ronaldo ML; Giggs MC; Carrick MC; Scholes FC; Solskjær FC; Rooney Bench; Kuczhazckazkh, Heinze, Rossi, Saha, and Park. If it wasn't working out; in with Saha and/or Rossi. Easy peasy. Somebody prefers it the hard way though. |

I was £#%&!ing fuming after that result yesterday and I was more nuts about Fletcher starting.I was blaming Ferguson for the whole show.
Today, after some reflection and some growing up, I'm thinking very differently.We drew at Newcastle in a game we deserved to win.So £#%&!ing what?Chelsea dropped points at home to Fulham and Reading.Let's all put some perspective into things. We're very good this season but can't win every game.Drawing away to Newcastle whilst still being 4 points (worst case scenario) clear, is not something to start freaking out over. |
