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.

Jones has just returned from injury and probably isn't match fit. Daft to risk him considering we are short on defenders.

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....

This is the difference between possession without purpose and possession with purpose. Every spanish player knew the next pass they were going to make before they received the ball. And every player receiving the ball was expecting it. It was one touch passing (granted with a bit of showboating and lots of possession) with a purpose. Ours in contrast involves getting the ball, taking a touch, looking up, deciding where to pass, losing any tactical advantage and pace, and about 5 of our players wondering if the ball is coming to them.
 
See that run by the bournemouth lad? That is why Fellaini is not good enough.

Bournemouth 2-1

Fellaini hero to zero <laugh>
 
Pathetic defending in the build up to the corner and from the corner. Absolute shambles.

The Feelossofee doesn't allow players to come straight back into the team after injury as they don't have the match rhythm. Inexperienced players do have match rhythm apparently. It's decreed in the feelossofee so it must be true.

No manager plays half fit players unless absolutely necessary.
