Man U v Aston Villa

[Gavmundo]

I'm watching MUTV as we speak and Larsson is set to start upfront with Rooney. Fergie has admitted he will rotate the squad. Kuszczak will start also. Ole will feature but start on the bench by the looks of things unless he plays him on the right wing.

Fergie has never been knocked out at this stage of the competition! 3-1 to Utd is my prediction.

*groans* It's been mainly Man U but terrible final balls and finishing have made it embarrassing so far! Ronaldo has played well enough and so has Larsson (with two shots on target) but Rooney has been awful (rumour is he was offered 10 days off by Fergie but he chose to train and play ... wish he'd taken the ten days at the mo :lol:). Some terrible finishing from 25-30 yards and a laughable moment where Rooney was played in with just the keeper to beat then trips over the ball.

Park has also had similar terrible shots from distance but his overall play has been ok. I've lost count of the amount of times Carrick gave the ball away!! Same with Giggs who's been invisible for most of the match! Not much from Villa but they don't need to win do they. A replay would suit them right down to the ground! I still think we'll win but maybe 3-1 was a bit too confident!

There will be a few tea cups (and maybe boots) being thrown round at halftime. give them the hairdryer Fergie!

Well what a strange second half! Larsson scores a great goal (he had a few chances and don't recall one off target), It then looked like we were going to take control and all we did was give the ball away and make loose passes. Our defence then crumbled and for ten mins they could have scored 3 or 4 (they scored an equaliser of course), the game was then very even then Fergie takes off Larsson and brings on Solksjaer. We had a lot of attack for the last ten mins and still didn't look like getting close to scoring due to inept passing (mainly Carrick) and poor finishing and then 4 mins of injury time was presented to us (no idea where they got that from and neither did O'Neil judging by his complaints) and before 91 mins was up Ole score with thanks to some terrible goalkeeping.

I'm seriously getting worried about Man U when only one goal up. When we don't kill teams off we end up conceding and it's happening too often. Rooney's form is getting worse (although he does add a lot to the team other than goalscoring but we need goals) and I'd prefer to see O'Shea playing before Carrick and that's saying something. Carrick just can't seem to keep control of the ball lately and he gives the ball to the opposition way too much!

Saying thatIi'm happy we won :lol:

hahaha yehhhh
but ROONEYS PASSING WAS HORRIBLE
other than his assist he gave up posession soo many times
and he like carrick could not keep control of the ball at all
he also blew the volley opportunity

i agree with what u said earlier and sit him for a few matches
