Gotta be looking at taking full points against them at Old Trafford in 13 days time.
I mean like they're nothing special. A moment of magic from Coutinho (who's out of the United game) won for them against Stoke, lucky to beat Bournemouth, did well first half against Arsenal but other than that nothing to write home about. Ramsey had a good goal disallowed too and they should have won it for their dominance 2nd half.
They'll rise it 10 fold because it's us, but just look at them yesterday. We really should be taking care of them especially when it's at home, Be disappointed if we don't
As for the rest well Chelsea are in crisis, I mean proper crisis. Sounds of discontent there and yet they are only 3 behind us. So we have to buckle up. Simple as

- we don't know how to score, and LVG's blind reliance on Rooney will cost us the season for sure. With a proper striker we would have killed the game earlier and we would have converted more chances. - Romero is a joke of a GK, but I already knew that and I am expecting more poor performances, going to cost us the season as well. Problems at opposite ends of the pitch, I agree! Romero looked shaky with his distribution and didn't inspire a lot of confidence with his general demeanor. Being put to his first real test and he hasn't stood out. Had Rooney converts those chances it'd be an entirely different outcome. He had a hattrick last week and confidence is hardly an issue here. He needs to sort himself out if we are going anywhere, this season. |

First half was ok, 2nd half was a capitulation
Rooney needs help up front
Also blind at cb is awful
romero had his worst game, distrubution was bad, let one in cheaply I thought

My thoughts on this game:
1. We are giving too much importance to possession, yes possession is important but it seems to me like players are not willing to take risks because in fear of losing possession. This will work against bigger clubs as they will try and steal the ball from us but against smaller Clubs they are just happy to sit back and defend.
Also I feel letting the opposition have the ball is not a bad thing because that creates a chance for us to hit them on counters but with our current style we completely taken out the chance of a counter, don't get me wrong I didn't mention this for the whole game but just in some occasions.
2. LVG is not capable of changing the game with substitutions or change of tactics, he only knows this possession football and long ball to Fellaini.
3. Players are playing like robots, they are not given enough freedom to express themselves. And also there is not enough hunger to win the game after we are trailing a goal.
4. I don't blame Romero at all, it is LVG's fault not playing or replacing DDG.
5. Line-up was perfect imo, other than DDG will not play until the window closes and Rooney is an automatic starter.
6. Have to give credit to Swansea as well, they played really well but we should have won.
7. Smalling is good, I think Blind will lose more games for us than winning if he used as CB throughout the season. Both Shaw and Darmian need to improve their final ball, other than that they look good.
8. Too early to call for LVG's head, I still back him but my Title hopes were taken a hit after seeing the performance yesterday.
