He wasn't remotely to blame for them, and made another brilliant save from that header.

Fergie is right, we are getting closer to Barcelona. Bilbao is in Spain.

Yeah, I was just breaking it to denis gently

Wish our strikers could blast ones like that into the top corner.

Our support - £#%&!ing shit. Really, really shit. It's embarrassing. Ajax, despite their Suarez support, were £#%&!ing magnificent and shown us over 2 legs how to get behind your team. Our fans are mainly gobshites, more interested in waving at the TV cameras when there's a throw in

Our captain - I'm no Jason basher but £#%&! me, captain? GTFO. Absolute joke. How the £#%&! can he rally the team when we need a captain to do so? Come on boys, alsation on toast if we win this. Just £#%&! off

Taking the opposition lightly, again - Really, really annoying me now this. How many times are we going to get embarrassed by average teams this season? It's ridiculous. Yet we do it time & again, putting in sloppy shifts and players generally not giving a £#%&!. Another 10 mins tonight and we would have gone out. Not good enough

Europa League - I still can't get my head around this shit. Just £#%&! off

I'm sure you read my thoughts. Spot on again. I fear we might miss big Tony some more yet. Hoping he makes a superman recovery in time for the spurs match to dominate that right wing (where their chimp boy will be aswell). Nani is playing pretty £#%&! atm.

Don't know if it's been mentioned but they were walked down Chester Rd and smashed up the Pomona pub.

Are you saying we would have been up for a ruck if it was a bigger game?

He has turned ducking under crosses in to an art form.

The number of headers we concede, without Vidic to put his head in the way of everything, isn't funny.

Our defending of set pieces is painful.

Actually, tbh with Vidic out our defending is pretty painful full stop.

That is *the* most disappointing thing about him, tbh. He just doesn't seem to have the United mentality

First picked up on it at anfield. Shit house.

Well, that was poo, we stopped playing after the goal, besides a couple of efforts before they scored.
They were by far the nosiest fans ever at OT. even without the £#%&!ing drums
But hey we got through and have to pay for yet more games

young is 27 in 3months, if he hasnt got it in him already, he never will.

He is nani n valencia's understudy though.

Probably the only reason Ferie wants us in this bobbins comp, is to usurp the blushit, because if we go out and they win it

Well at least we're getting a good look at midfielders in this comp.

Woopty do not arsed were through wouldnt have been arsed if out. Big game on Sunday.

Fergie: "I'm responsible for picking the team and I just had too many young players in the back four out there tonight. That was just too much of a risk. Ajax are what they are - a fantastic team in terms of keeping possession of the ball. But we only had one shot on goal in the second half."

Who currently lie 6th in eredivise.

the same team that couldn't get near madrid.

WE wouldn't get anywhere near Madrid.

Shameful that, last night. Cleverley deserves a bit of a break imo, seeing as he's been out so long. Can anyone remember the last time we were able or Ferie chose to play the same side for two straight games? Even if we have done of late, its been rare as £#%&!.

Whatever, the attitude on some of our players is £#%&!ing appalling.

we didn't play badly because the players weren't good enough, we played badly because the tie was over and they had a shite attitude. inexcusable imo but ajax looked decent because we couldn't be arsed, not because of any quality they have.

Maybe i over reacted. But my point still stands. Whatever it was.

Not read the thread but i take it you've gone completely mental then?

For all the De Gea critics this season about time someone took a closer look at Phil Jones. Is he £#%&! a defender. All over the place when played there, hasn't got a £#%&!ing clue.

Been saying it all season, very promising midfielder, can't defend to save his life.

Pretty much this, all i would add is that one of my biggest problems with squad rotating is that you can see when a team has not played together, call me old fashioned but I have always felt a team that plays together regularly will always gel and become a better team, tinkering and £#%&!ing about with it just makes it look like and play like a team that doesn't really gel.

It's become a normal thing in all top teams now but i think it's shit, these are supposedly top top athletes but they need resting and time off £#%&! off. if they're fit, get the same team out week in week out, everyone plays off each other, knows each other knows their place and job, that to me is how a team plays well, not putting out a different 11 every game ffs.

( I know this may be different for this cup admitedly, but in general i think all the rotating is shit )
