United's football recently has been joga bonito at it's finest. The only surprise is it's 0-0. I just hope we don't get anxious and lose our shape. If we continue playing this way, we'll definitely win.
The referee has had two decisions to make in this game. 1, Tugay's lash out at Ronaldo and 2, the penalty on about the 44th minute. He got both wrong.
Tugay should have been sent off, United should have had a penalty.
Rooney could've had two tonight.
If we don't win this game, Fergie and the fans will be fuming. We should have had this wrapped up already. How good does our midfield look, eh?
C'MON UNITED!

I can understand the ref not seeing that kick on Ronaldo, but the 4th official was right infront of it and did nothing

Gary neville has gone off with a calf injury being replaced by John O'shea. The recent injuries that Gary have had is really starting to turn into a big concern now.

We are playing some of the best football, as good as Arsenal's but more effective by far.
Ronaldo and Giggs give United great width, while Scholes and Carrick can unlock any defence through the middle.
Rooney really should have scored today but it doesn't matter when we win anyway. Saha got the goal and has kept himself our top scorer.
Our fans were great today, really helped us along.
The performance despite terrential rain, a slippy pitch and the wind was what impressed me most of all and don't they say it's the mark of Champions when you get through these sort of games with a 1-0 victory.
"We shall not be moved!"

A good result, feels nice to keep that bit of space between us and Chelsea.

Just got back from the game ;D Fuckin brilliant... not the game, but the atmosphere lol. United deserved the win, no doubt about it, but you had to wonder if we were ever going to find the net. Carrick looked off the pace today, and Rooney didnt look too hot either. Our passing was slick most of the time, but still, there was room for improvement. Result that matters, and it was thoroughly deserved. In the past two weeks to beat the teams we have is just brilliant. As far being part of the away fans with United, man, absolutely incredible. We had the whole one of their stands, and honestly did not stop singing for the whole game, including half time. It was one song after another. Looking forward to watching MOTD so I can hear how loud it sounds when you're not in the centre of it all. There were United fans with Portugal flags there today

Great result, I got a bit nervous when Rooney missed those two sitters and thought we might pay for it but Giggs, who I thought looked a bit out of sorts for most of the game, did really well with that knock back to Saha who continues to impress. We weren't at our most clinical today and at another time we would have dropped points or even lost but this season we've found the knack of winning these stubborn games and it's great to see that 3 point gap was maintained. I think it was quite telling though that apart from the forced sub of Nev at half time we didn't make any changes until almost the full 90 were up as our bench was pretty unimpressive, none the less a great win I'm just jealous of Scott after his bragging about the atmosphere

We played well, should have scored more goals, wasted a few chances. End of the day, we won, that's what matters.
