Man U vs Aston Villa match thread - FA Cup 3rd Rd

[andyh]

Don’t think Utd will be that shit second half.

[DB]

Buendia keeps putting his teammates in trouble with shit passes, then having a little tantrum at them.

Noticed that.  Combined with getting pushed off the ball too easily, I'm getting tired of him.

Yep, loses it too many times, but then can come up with a great bit of play.

[LeonW]

Buendia has been exceptional

Agreed. Think this has been his best half for us this season.

Exceptional? If he gives the ball away once more he may as well put on a red shirt.

Up until the commentators curse struck, he’s been very good yes.

[Proposition Joe]

The midfield are all getting in each other's way. And despite ManUre being so unstructured, they look more likely to score the next because every time they run at us we panic like the little NPCs when Wreck It Ralph crashes their party.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Fucking hell Luiz!!

Fucking hell Targett!!

[sickbeggar]

Well you know things are bad when you're losing and McTominay is the opposition's best player. Sort it out Gerrard!

[tomd2103]

We have had a terrible last 10 minutes there after doing well on the whole. 

[Steve67]

Unless we get that DCM to start dominating, Coutinho may not make a massive amount of difference, particularly in this formation. Quality player, but we have to get him the ball and I can't see that with this current midfield.

[Dave P]

If ever there was a performance from someone who knows he’s being replaced, then it’s Targett here.

[PaulTheVillan]

After that first half I’d be happy to see Targett & Luiz replaced this month. Not good enough.

[Sexual Ealing]

Targett is very clearly a confidence player. It's very clear that he has none.

[SoccerHQ]

Unless we get that DCM to start dominating, Coutinho may not make a massive amount of difference, particularly in this formation. Quality player, but we have to get him the ball and I can't see that with this current midfield.

You say that when Buendia has been on the ball many times and chances have happened as a result.

Coutinho is simply better if match fit so I'm hopeful they'll be goals and assists very soon with the same space.

[sickbeggar]

God know's what Luiz was doing. Awful.

[CT Villan]

We go from the sublime to the ridiculous with such ease.

Watkins and Buendia so wasteful in possession, SJM anonymous.

Utd are there for the taking too.

[jwarry]

If ever there was a performance from someone who knows he’s being replaced, then it’s Targett here.

Indeed. Buendia also causing problems and so obvious that Doug is no DM all of which SG is trying to address
