Manchester Utd vs Aston Villa Match Thread

I think we can score again. Just cannot see our defence not conceding more.

Think we'll get another but Utd may get another 1-2. I think Rooney looks odds on for the most comfortable hattrick he'll probably ever score.

Bacuna didn't need to dive in there - he's not a full back!

Again, ask Eden Hazard if Bacuna isn't a full back. He makes one bad challenge and all of a sudden he can't play the position? That's the definition of a non-sequitur.

Away at Fulham?

Again, saying after one bad game that he shouldn't play the position is a non-sequitur. He has played well at full back many times this season, so saying he shouldn't play there because of isolated low points you can remember makes no sense whatsoever. Benteke's had bad games and missed chances, is he not a striker then? Or is it because the first time you saw Bacuna he was in a different position, so any mistake he makes in another one is because he's not where you imagine he should be? It makes no sense.

That's about right.

Lets hope that was our bad half. I'd hate to take a pasting from these twats.

I think we're doing OK.

I think BT Sport are rooting for a home win.

I think Christian Benteke is using "economy of movement"

[Lamb_Stockmix]

Well what's it to be?  The usual end of season DVD filling climax for these absolute c***s or some kind of spirited second half ending with us getting at least a point against by far the worst Utd team since the 1980's?

Definitely the former.

So Montbert, one decent game makes Bacanu a full back ? How about all the games like today when he has been shite ?

[Goldie.7]

As long as Welback doesn't come on we might get a point here.

[dicedlam]

We have played well enough to at least go in at half time even. Silly defensive errors again costing us.

Still think we can get something there.

He wasn't very good last week either and had a poor run of games at the end of last year. He's filling a gap. Long term I don't think he's a fullback at all.

That's revisionist. He's had bad games and good games like everyone else in the team, why don't you question whether they should play in their positions? You only think this because the first time you saw Bacuna he was playing somewhere else so you got a fixed idea. He makes no errors which to me look the result of being in the wrong position - he makes mistakes because he's an enthusiastic but limited footballer, like almost all of our players.

I went for 2-2 on the pre-match, with us taking an early lead and then being pegged back, it's gone pretty much exactly as I expected.

Buttner is very lucky to not have got a 2nd yellow for the high boot on Clark, that was exactly what happened to Benteke vs Chelsea last year and you see yellows for those challenges fairly regularly.

He's played well in far more than one game. That's a brainless thing to say.

I would much prefer Lowton there .

It's bloody roasting at the Theatre of Wet Dreams, like an end of season game! No way should we be losing this, they're just a long ball shower of mid table shite.

We will do these wankers in the second half.

Indeed he is.
