Manchester United 2 Tottenham Hotspurs 3

Abysmal. That's the best word to describe our first half display.

1. Simply speaking, no one turned up during the first half. The two goals we let in were so soft, even I could've dribbled through the whole United team.
2. I have no idea what's wrong with Ferdinand and Evans at the start, they just didn't want to move or tackle at all.
3. The starting midfield lineup of Giggs, Scholes and Carrick is way too old. Why Tom Cleverly or Ando isn't out there seems like a mystery to me. We were absolutely overrun by TW younger Spurs legs.
4. Poor Lindegaard, all three goals were way beyond him. Can't blame him much.
5. Nani, is a total fuckhead. Brilliant yet frustrating, today he was even worse than the last few games. Sure he scored but it was also his flank that led to all the goals. Absolutely no cover for Rafael. He should not play for United again. Drastic I know, but I hate seeing him on the pitch.
6. Speaking of Rafael, I thought he had a really good game. As with most of this season. Had to cover for the cock Nani and his own RB role.
7. In the second half we really came to life. Rooney replaced Giggs, and suddenly Kagawa and RvP were clicking again. We hit the post twice, had a couple of penalty shouts, and a goal chalked off for offside. Really edge-of-your-seat stuff. Exhilarating. The Rooney substitution was a game-changer.
8. Plus Scholes is a God. God of football. He's just too good and yet sadly he could not win the game alone.
9. In the end out first half performance cost us the game. We played so much better in the second half, if only we could have done that from the start. Yet here was a showcase of how devastating our offence could be if we took the game seriously from the start. Some of our moves were amazing.
10. At this rate we're gonna win fuck shit this season if what's left of our defenders don't wake up their ideas from start till finish.

Just hope SAF does something to address it permanently.

GGMU!!!
