Jesus God No...

To be fair Minxy he is bang on the button. You can't say much else. Our shape was shambolic on Sunday. Back line was like an angry snake.

 

Sorry the way I read it sounds like it had just dawned on him that you needed to win some games

Thought you were going to get rid of that horrible AV

 

This is worrying. We are by no means safe, so having Krul out is terrible, but if Elliot is also injured then we have major issues.

 

Harps is way too slow nowadays to play in the EPL.
Don't trust him at all.



We'll have to call back Forster from his Celtic loan.



Oh wait.........

 

Harper is a perfectly competent keeper - - more or less on a par with Eilliot, though obviously without the prospects for improvement.

If there is any problem with Elliott (and the article is based on him seen limping during hte match, which can mean something or nothing) then Harps is more than capable of filling in

 

Mate Harper has no confidence in himself and that spreads to the players. He also cannot reach low shots and most of the time doesn't even move. If we are forced to play him in the remaining games we could be in dire trouble

 

Fear not lads, I'm going to the West Brom game and I've been asked to take my boots with me.

 

Where does this come from ?

Harper has made 7 appearances this season: 3 wins, 3 draws, 1 loss, with 4 clean sheets.

The one loss was to Man U. A summary of the goals is below - - no indication Harper is at fault for any of them. Can someone remind me of a goal that Harper has let in this year that was his fault ? My memory isn't photographi by any means but I can't remember one.

"8 mins van Persie won a corner off Harper and took it himself from the North East side of the ground. His left footer dropped just outside the six yard box in a central area, where Evans had jumped higher than Ba and the ground bound Jonas and Tiote (although replays suggested that Williamson was his alleged marker). Harper got a hand to it but to no avail. 0-1

15 mins Harper sprang to his right and pushed a Wayne Rooney free kick round his right post at the expense of a corner. Rooney swung it over for the unmarked Patrice Evra to glide in and nod home from close range towards the near post.

More confusion over marking was evident upon repeated viewings, with Jonas seen to be visibly asking who was marking the goalscorer. That prompted Ben Arfa to trudge into view as Evra began to stride goalwards, Santon jumping but missing the incoming header and Ba shadowing his run - but remaining on terra firma. 0-2

Half time: United 0 United 2

71 mins Evra fired a pass out to Rooney on the visitors left towards the edge of the box. With Cabaye dropping back, the number 10 turned and knocked the ball back to the waiting Cleverley, who took once touch before dispatching a dipping right foot effort that flew beyond Harper and towards the top corner of his goal. 0-3

Full time: United 0 United 3"
