Aston Villa vs Manchester United Match Thread

Benteke looks a class above every other player on the pitch. The United trio are too afraid to get tight to him, Clark has found him well particularly with long passes down the sides.

United look very open, that break away Gabby screwed up with an awful touch he had two fairly open passes available to him with Benteke and Weimann. Fletcher is lost for them with our counterattacks.

We improved last ten mins but do need to keep the ball a lot better in the second half. With Lowton offering zero resistance down our right, cant see us keeping a clean sheet. More goals in it for us though with the form Benteke is in, Delph as our main linkman needs to improve

Please no inspirational half time talks other than,
Dont give the ball away so easily
Double up on young
Score two more in front of the Holte
And lets beat the Fuckers !!!!!!!

Oh I don't know, I just meant that if we had signed a player at left back that was banging in crosses and running forward and backward like Roberto Carlos and Cafu, we'd probably have spent a good deal more than £2m to get him.

It's nothing to do with the price, it's a mentality.

I meant that when you go round buying bargain basement signings you get players with that mentality and skill.

Lyon paid 15m euros for him. I don't believe he's a bargain basement player, just somebody that needs good instruction from the coach/manager.

Is it wrong of me wanting to see Benteke put the young Man U CB into row Z with a shoulder charge?

Fuck me De Gea

[hilts_coolerking]

Fook that was close.

Glad we've got Delph on set pieces instead of Cleverley.

[Tom_Mc9?]

There's potential for another goal or two in this game. When we concede we tend to let our heads drop so hopefully that doesn't happen today.

Brilliant pass by Rooney there.

[hilts_coolerking]

Caught a bit square there but good save from Brad.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Brad you king!!!

[Hampshire Villa]

here we go, invite , invite and invite .........you know the rest!

[Tom_Mc9?]

When Ashley Young was on form for us, defenders used to double up on him. Do we ever do that?

[hilts_coolerking]

It's got that hanging on in injury time feel about it already.

[SamTheMouse]

Standing off them far too much here. They have ages to pick their passes.
