Ah, it took them 20 minutes to start singing the victim song. Good effort but I suppose they just couldn't help it, could they?
A giant indeed. I watched goon the other night, and was thinking we needed exactly this. Some good old fashioned intimidation.
We're bossing this but as usual we need to kill it off. These feckers can pop up with a goal. How RVP is still on the pitch I don't know....
RVP will get a red card in the second half - Moyes won't take him off and the first foul he makes will be him gone. We aren't really creating too many chances but we're flooding the midfield and soaking in pressure very well. Also the commentator is trying to convince Andy Gray that Sturridge was in an offside position from the corner, and despite coming back onside for Agger's header, he's not allowed to do that, because "these days they're saying inside the goal is offside too"
Aspas looks our worst player so far, he's finding it bit hard to cope with the physicality. Makes me wonder if he's good enough be a starter. Was anonymous against Villa aswell.
Agree - but he's got positive signs. He's just struggling to be involved, but he's had some nice flicks and obviously gets along with the rest of the team. I'd keep him on the bench for Suarez, but he would still get in the squad often for me.
The boy is up against Vidic today, pressurising Vidic has been his job. Not many players have done that effectively, I only recall Torres doing this job well. Nonetheless we have performed strongly today when pressuring the United defence so I think he has done this role rather well.
