English Premier League 2012-13

Utd were all over them in the 2nd half, not many teams go away to swansea and dominate possession like they did. Just abit unlucky infront of goal and swansea defended well too so i couldn't begrudge them a point. What has happened to rooneys ability to run with the ball and skin players ... years ago he was class at skinning players and lashing shots into the top corner but somewhere along the ling he lost that ability to do so. Dont get me wrong i think hes a better player nowadays (although less exciting) but he'd be amazing if he retained his dribbling ability. He had a bad game all round today right enough, fergie went at him when he misplaced a pass in the box.

 

Probably more Kaka now, Kaka at his best was quicker and more energetic than he is now. Now hes not so quick, Michu isnt either, they kinda float about at their own pace but are really intelligent players and have good movement and ability on the ball.

 

I wonder if he was so vocal when Keane killed Haaland's career?

 

What was it that happened I was out and never seen the 2nd half.

 

Poor wee mite got a ball to the back of his head, when Williams was trying to clear the ball

 

Decent enough point , should been all 3 , very wasteful in front goal and hit the bar twice , ref was a joke.

 

How exactly was the ref a joke?

I thought the referee done very, very well.

No idea how United didn't win that game, after Ashley Young's chance you just new it was going to be one of those days.

 

Thought the ref was decent.

Couple of dodgy decisions against both sides though which kinda cancelled each other out.

 

I can't really remeber any dodgy decisions?

I never noticed the ref at all come to think of it, which is the sign of the ref having a good game for me.

 

Can't actually remember what they were now

Just know that Man U should have got a foul...then about 5 mins late, Swansea should have got a foul.

 

Swansea goal was a clear foul on Rvp in the the lead up Chico goes right threw the back of him.

The Swansea left back Davies clear hand ball on the line was clearly going in, would been a pen and red card .

 

Ah wait, before the Swansea goal Van Persie thought he got fouled. I thought it could have been blown either way so doesn't really matter. I like refs that continue the play instead of just blowing the whistle.

 

Michu is a whippet mate.

Did you see him give Vidic a four yard head start today and end up 2 yards in front of him over 30 yards? :smiley-laughing002:

 

Kaka was quicker and more powerful, more direct for me, I can see what he means by Kaka now but Kaka at his best was just everything. Passing, pace, power, skill, unselfish, hard worker...

 

I'm not disputing that Dev. ILTC said that Michu isn't very quick, I thought he was doing him a disservice with that.

Kaka was and is a quality player.

 

Ah, he might be quick but he isn't actually a player who uses his pace all that often, he doesn't really need to. His positioning is that clever.

Not often you see that.

 

Highlight of today? The abuse given to that traitor Giggs

"you scum *" and "dirty Cardiff *" and the more comedic "your nephews your son, your nephews your son, ryan Giggs, your nephews your son".

Sir Alex needs to wrap up too. And we'll done to the United fan who fired some type of firework into the roof

 

Ooft, what a way to mark your 500th league appearance.

Take a bow Frank, take a bow.

 

Why is Giggs a traitor?

 

Why's he a traitor?
