    Probably doesn't help having the club captain and Saint of Chelsea, John Terry working for Sky tonight....

    He's not good enough, end of.

    I've nothing against the bloke on a personal level but he is simply NOT of the required quality to be a Manchester United player.

    Who is a United player? Phil Nevile? Tom Cleverley, Anderson, Nani, O'Shea, Brown?

    We can disagree about their problems. But the fact is they've been shockingly 5hit this season. You can't just ignore that considering the teams they've dropped points to this season. My greater point though, was that watching them tonight, they are far too open in midfield (although they are pressing well) and we naturally are dominating as a result. But we really should be taking advantage. My feeling is the front line need be making runs and the ball played into them quicker.

    Gets a really unfair ride does Fellaini a lot of the time, however he doesn't help things. For every good thing, there's things like that run v Bayern or his red atbthe end of last season. Stupid stuff.

    But he played an important role this season and pops up today with a goal in a decimated squad? Cut the guy some slack. He's filled in and done what we hoped.

    Of the players you mention, only Anderson and Cleverly weren't good enough.

    All however were at some time members of a title winning side. Fellaini isn't and should he continue to be in the first team never will be


    Happy to clear that up.

    Tempo utd play at is so much slower than under ferguson,the passing is laboured which makes it so easy to defend against for any organised side

    I feel like they need to covert the chances. Because we are missing some sitters in recent games.

    You don't even need to mention Ferguson. Any manager or any club will do.

    Good half that. All things considered.

    Goal was clearly on Dave looking at the replays. Though he made up for it later.

    You seriously telling me a team with Fellaini as a first choice player would win the league?

    Not a ****ing chance.

    Who said first choice? As a squad player he's useful.

    Keystone cops stuff at the back as expected, totally baffled as to why Jones is on the bench. Apart from the goal Fellaini has been poor. His passing is way below the standards expected of a decent PL side and he gives away so many daft free kicks. Perreira is very lucky to still be on the pitch. Ashley Young must have been caught boffing Mrs VG as he's gone from being one of the manager's favourites to a pariah.

    He's slow as feck man. Waaaaaaay slower than what we see with United just now. Didn't Spain win a Euro or WC with like 4 goals? Don't remember exactly but it was low, very low. And they had Villa....
