HK85 267 Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 United are one of the worst home teams I've seen this season and we still managed to give them a result. I have full faith that Ronald, Steve Walsh and Farhad will deliver this summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moyes probably sees that result as a bit of a slap in the face... meh. that's what they were. I think they had one shot on target and a deflected shot that hit the post. other than that, they didn't actually create much or give us anything to test us. We didn't play well but quality shone through when Shakespeare made the changes. Albrighton was the game-changer. A little bit of an unsung hero because he's not as flashy as the like of Mahrez or Vardy or Gray. The pace and composure Albrighton showed for Vardy's goal was excellent. His experience over Gray will get him starting against Everton and/or Atletico. And there's the standard Albrighton cross for Slimani to head in. Can't believe we got Albrighton on a free . Vardy's finish just shows how much confidence he has right now as well. One touch to set up a powerful left foot finish. Up until those subs were made, the game was pretty turgid, going nowhere and probably would have ended up 0-0. And I would have been disappointed if so because Sunderland at home should be a 3-point banker for any team in this division. Regardless of the win, I've been disappointed with Drinkwater last couple of games. Gives away the ball too much and got dispossessed too many times last night for my liking. Perhaps it was because Sunderland played an extra man in midfield and he didn't get the space to control the game like usual. But even when he dropped deep to try and spread the ball to Gray and/or Mahrez, they weren't really going anywhere, either intercepted or too far out of play. Apparently Sunderland haven't scored in 7 games consecutively now. Laughable for a team in their position. They don't even look like scoring.

True Blue 971 Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 I want to put a baby in Rachel, Tonight is going to be massive for us, i think everything but a defeat would be alright. We have Everton and United left that are tricky with the last four games pretty straight forward. Also City and Spurs would have to win every of their remaining games. I'd go for a win 2-1 for the mighty blues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toony 95 Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Big games at both ends of the table tonight. If Chelsea drop more points the door is well and truly open for ground to be made & that Hull vs Middlesbrough game is crucial at the bottom, if Boro lose they're done.

What would irk me most if I was a Utd fan is the way he's now literally throwing everyone from the tea lady to the players under a bus in virtually every press conference! In fact the only players he's not publicly criticising are the ones he splashed mega money on. Jose 'it's everyone's fault but mine' Mourinho.

He brought real entertainment to the Premier League and played some brilliant football with world-class players. He made the move to Inter and had a lot of success but it all went wrong when he went to Spain, the media got on his back and he cracked. The paranoia from that ill stint at Madrid seems to have seeped into his make-up now, he was a total ball-bag at Chelsea the second time around and shows no sign of making a u-turn with United. Totally agree. It's like he's actually going round the twist! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Palace Fan 3,402 Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Is there any Manchester United fans or neutrals that think Jose Mourinho is doing a good job? He's made Manchester United a very dull team to watch which we all expected but I don't think any of us expected such a pathetic effort to make the top four given the resources at his disposal. I know it's a point that's been mentioned before but given the money spent and the attacking prowess of Mkhytarian, Mata, Martial, Rashford and still Wayne Rooney it's not right that Zlatan Ibrahimovic is there only attacking threat. His comments taking credit for Luke Shaw's late chance was pretty cringeworthy too. He will be blaming him for a goalless draw before the end of the season. I'm surprised Watford made good work of beating West Brom but in hindsight that may be a good thing that persuades to Pozzo's to stay with a Manager for longer than a season. I can't say i'm surprised about the other two resultes. Sunderland gave a better battle than I thought they would but they've got no creative midfielders that can play the forward passes needed to create chances. Burnley being at home against a side with nothing to play for was the perfect opportunity for them to find their groove again and they delivered in a fashion that I expected.
