Manchester United 1 Crystal Palace 0

A win is a win, regardless of performance.

1) Defence Is Finally Improving
Who would've thought a CB pairing of McNair and Blind would yield a clean sheet? McNair's reputation is growing by the day with each passing match. I hope he displaces Smalling/Jones/Evans this season. Blackett also could be his partner at CB. Luke Shaw was MOTM while Tony V did a decent job at RB. DDG had nothing to do all game haha.

2) Carrick Is Still Important
Who would've thought that at 33 Carrick would still make sure a calming difference? His positional play is still top notch.

3) Attack Has Become The Problem
Our frontmen made up of RVP, ADM, Rooney and Januzaj really didn't do enough. It was Mata's introduction that made the difference. Hopefully Falcao and Herrera can come back soon. RVP really needs to be rested. James Wilson is also yet to score a goal despite coming on as a substitute several times already. Rooney is just shite at midfield.

4) Fellaini The Ball Winner
Somehow Fellaini wasn't used very right last night. Still it didn't matter much when he won almost all his lobbed headers. Certainly could have scored too if not for the goal line clearance. He really provides  such an added tactical presence.

5) Three Points
Is all that matters. Even though we played like crap most if the game, we had good possession and defence was tight. Hopefully we can bang in the goals soon. Onwards and upwards!

GGMU!!!
