Was watching the Manure game again, and felt the need to do this.

What I don't understand is why people aren't willing to give Ben Arfa time to play to adjust to all aspects of the Premier League before making judgements about his work ethic etc. We know he is an extremely talented dribbler of the ball, and has an impressive arsenal of passes that will stay the same regardless of the league, but we don't know how he'll react to the increased pace and physicality of the league. Likewise in regards to match fitness over 90 minutes at full pace you really do need to play a series of games to be able to last a full game and still be effective. Sporadic cameo appearances can't have helped that.

You mean like Ba did with Giggs, beating him and getting off a shot but still picking up the free-kick rightfully from Giggs' desperate attempt at a tackle, that was late and never in danger of going near the ball.

The Jonas goal gets better with each watch, absolute class finish and great lead up play. As an individual goal Ben Arfa's is in a league of its own - brilliant.

And there it was. Hazy run from HBA in very tight space. Very impressed with Jonas' finish...

They did say that but its starting. Yep!

,,,Just said that the highlights will be on at 11:30PM

Dying to see this HBA goal.... And the Jonas one.

That first one is classic!

First step towards achieving that preference would be to make fewer threads whereby you as a female ask where other females are.

Colleen's a slapper She wears a wonder bra And when she's shaggin' Rooney She thinks of Demba Ba :nufc:

I've been openly critical of him at times in the past, but credit where it is due, he has come in and played really well. You'd barely know that he missed the start of the season.

What are you on about? It's not the same tactics - we played a mixture of direct and passing football, and he dropped Obertan and started Santon. How is that the same thing he does every week? So what if he sticks to 442? Last time he tried a different formation we get well beaten. Why on earth would I want Vuckic on? Perch is a defensive player, so I had no problem with bringing him on just to solidify things. Man Utd are so capable of getting a goal and then another in quick succession. Beyond sad that people have to complain about the subs, like they have to blame Pardew for something. Got his subs spot on if you ask me. We're giving him credit for his role in our win tonight, not "sticking our tongues up the manger's ringpiece". Put yourself in the creche for such nonsense. The subs weren't horrible, though I really do not like having Perch in the squad at all, let alone getting on the pitch. He didn't really do anything poorly out there, but when you're replacing Cabaye with him you're going to lose a great deal in terms of possession and you aren't gaining anything in defense. Clearly about fresh legs and getting players on who can do plenty of running.

Any word on how much the deal is worth? Can't really have any complaints. It doesn't look great, but neither have plenty of the Northern Rock's.. though had become accustomed to that being on our shirts.

Amazing game. Well played by all. Just amazing. Atmosphere sounded brilliant.

Bitter Nani tears

Krul assist.

Hahahahahhah that's brilliant!!!!!!

Did Best just attempt a pass to Webb?

We're not going to have much ball for the rest of the game.

And if he is please no perch

Finally Valencia gets his booking. Mate, the nerves with all these balls into the area and across the goal face....

Brilliant clearance there.
