No Rooney, no Valencia, no De Gea .

[B-Mac]

Valencia had missed some training because of funeral for his international teammate Benitez.

and no Hernandez as well too

[jibers]

We are playing AIK. Some weird 433 formation with Carrick as a regista

Zaha missed a sitter with his left foot.

[Busby Babe]

Nani playing like he has a point to prove.

[jibers]

Rafael

He just got raped.

We are in trouble...

red flags

[jibers]

I'm sorry apart from Carrick our mf is dire. Anderson is horrendous. Gets in the way, always attempts stupid passes...

[B-Mac]

goalkeepers putting on a clinic

[Busby Babe]

Nani injured, again. FFS.

[B-Mac]

was best player on the pitch till he went off

[jibers]

Now I know how arsenal fans feel. We are finished...

[B-Mac]

Saving us all pre season

[Busby Babe]

Henriquez

[B-Mac]

Bebe

[Busby Babe]

Bebe

[B-Mac]

tbf...he didn't look half bad


this team is lost creatively without a #10 behind the striker tho

#SaveUsRooney/Kagawa

[Busby Babe]

The facepalm was in reference to how easily he lost the ball after he came on.

He improved after though.

[Glory]

its over 1-1
pre season tour ends and we are yet to see the stuff of defending champs from our team.
Sincerely hope things will change on Sunday at Wembley and our boss and can get hands on his first ever silverware
Glory Glory United

[B-Mac]

let's remember that all of these teams we played are in mid season domestically....and we have a bunch of players coming off injury or extended holidays because they played in international summer tournaments.

I mean we haven't even seen Chicharito yet.

Henriquez looked lively today tho, even besides his goal he was impressive....hope he gets loaned to a mid table side and can see some game time playing in a decent team....Everton perhaps, Martinez had him on loan at Wigan last year

[Glory]

yep B. you are right. The results dont matter at all from these matches. Guys need to get some playing time and thats all. What matters is where we go from here. 1st stop against a dangerous Wigan side (without Martinez and some star players from last season though pheww ) and only there we will come to know the clear picture i suppose.

[Busby Babe]

Today we could of easily won if Van Persie put his chances in, and we wouldn't be taking this result seriously.

Also, Henriquez did look lively today. I think we rejected a loan move to Real Zaragoza, so hopefully the right premier league team come in for him.

[B-Mac]

ya I think the club rejected it actually, because they want him to develop inside the English game

[B-Mac]

Moyes: "Nani just felt his groin tighten up and didn't want to take any risk."

not serious then....probably just because of lack of fitness due to lack of a full pre season
