Cahill and Felli Start...
Comments (73)
So the two boys start.. I was worried about yellows for Lecsott and Cahill. Aren't they one game away from suspension.. Can someone clarify that if they do get booked, they won't miss the cup game as it takes 7 days for the ban to come into effect..
COYB.....

I really don’t know why but in the midst of this injury crisis I still thought VDM might come back in and help us out but he is not even on the bench I just wonder where he disappears to.
COYB think we could get another valuable point today to keep our unbeaten run going

Jim, agree with you on VDM. We might be in the minority but I believe he has something to bring to the team, including dangerous balls into the box.

That a boy Hibbo..
ROnaldo’s a bloody bird- brain..
Great save..
Jimmy Crack
Posted 31/01/2009 at 17:45:36
Hibbo really is an amazing tackler

Why the black armband?
Excuse my naivety in advance.

Armband for Munich..
Getting into it a bit more now..
Rich Williams

Nice to see Baines playing well, I like the look of us with him down the left. At this point, I don?t see a way back in for Yobo.
Rich Williams
Posted 31/01/2009 at 18:13:18
Shame his crossing is not up to the standard he had Wednesday.
Robert Jones
Posted 31/01/2009 at 18:16:58
Ridiculous
Jake Gordon
Posted 31/01/2009 at 18:16:32
No fucking way that would?ve been given up the other end....
Gavin Harris
Posted 31/01/2009 at 18:16:57
Its amazing how 75000 people screaming for a pen influences the ref. You could see him change his mind when the place erupted.
Playing well so hopefully next game we can win it and catch arsenal.
Adam Wilkinson
Posted 31/01/2009 at 18:17:05
Would we have got that at the other end?
Rich Williams
Posted 31/01/2009 at 18:18:00
Probably not Jake, but I thought it was just a pen, slightly unnecessary from Arteta as Hibbo had it covered. Shame
Jimmy Crack
Posted 31/01/2009 at 18:18:48
COYB we can still pull it out it’s only halftime

Jimmy Crack

Tim Howard has been incredible. and lucky. What a shame
Will Leaf
Posted 31/01/2009 at 18:19:10
Certainly a penalty. As to whether we would have gotten the same decision is another question. Agree with Rich, unnecessary challenge/flailing leg from Arteta.
Jake Gordon
Posted 31/01/2009 at 18:19:31
No doubt he caught him, frustration in my comment I guess but even so I think most would agree like yourself.
Alan Reddish
Posted 31/01/2009 at 18:22:54
it was a penalty but imagine the abuse if Hibbert or Pip had doe that. Anyway, come on you blue boys!!!

The thing is, if that trip happened to one of our players, I can bet you that it won’t be a penalty...
Thats how ridiculous the referees are
Brian Waring
Posted 31/01/2009 at 18:22:28
Can’t argue with the pen, Arteta knew what he was doing. We are getting plenty of joy down the left, shame the final ball is poor.
The mancs are doing what they do best, stretching teams, with some nice football. Vidic and Ferdinand are doing a good job on Cahill ( who is starting to look a little frustrated ) and Screech.
At the end of the day, we are still in it, and we know we are able to nick a goal.
Jimmy Crack
Posted 31/01/2009 at 18:31:17
Was it a penalty? Yes
Would it have been given to us? No
It just shows how an enthusiastic home crowd really does make a difference. I’m not complaining though cause that’s one of the things I love about this game. Maybe it’s the happy pills I took this morning but I really think we can beat them in the second half

This is more like it... Playing some lovely stuff in midfield... Just need that fiinal ball onto the ’fro...

Peanuts is playing very well, great running... also think Arteta is looking good.
Jimmy Crack

NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO
not Anichebe, Gosling!!!
Jimmy Crack
Posted 31/01/2009 at 19:06:33
Hibbert for England!!
Kevin Chung
Posted 31/01/2009 at 19:10:50
We should just give Anichebe away for FREE.....
Viv Sharma
Posted 31/01/2009 at 19:11:09
I know we are desperately short on strikers, but I still think we should sell VA. Maybe Scunthorpe or Grimbsby might take him. Not good enough. (Hope now he scores a double to make me look like a fool...)
Tony Pickering
Posted 31/01/2009 at 19:12:51
Sympathise Kevin, I was just thinking how he has failed to make the step up from ’promising’ to ’does a good job’.
Was also wondering if Screech has become scared of getting booked - he hasn’t looked half as good sine his second ban - een allowing for the quality of opposition since then.
However, still a chance in this game. Pleeeeeze!!!! COYB

Agrred kevin! Victor doesn’t even run anymore, he’s got no skill and 1st div at best
Michael Hunt
Posted 31/01/2009 at 19:13:40
I’d have preferred to see Gosling come on too Jimmy. Come on Big Vic, pretend its a UEFA Cup game!
Barry Jevons
Posted 31/01/2009 at 19:13:04
Ten minutes to go... Lets have a real go at them! COYB!!! Big Vic is due a goal or two isn’t he?!
Kevin Chung
Posted 31/01/2009 at 19:16:34
I think AVDM could have done better than Anichebe...
Agreed Gary Mills... he doesnt even run anymore.... bloody hell...
Kevin Sparke
Posted 31/01/2009 at 19:18:57
That challange on Lescott was a nailed on pen!
Kevin Chung
Posted 31/01/2009 at 19:20:32
Sparke.... if it happened to Vidic or Ferdinand, it would have been a penalty
Paul Davey
Posted 31/01/2009 at 19:22:14
Fucking Brown... that was a yellow.
Gary Mills
Posted 31/01/2009 at 19:21:27
What is moyes thinking? How can Yobo help us score???????????
Will Leaf
Posted 31/01/2009 at 19:22:25
One of our players would have to be shot to get a penalty at Old Trafford
Rich Williams
Posted 31/01/2009 at 19:21:41
See that on the sideline between Moyes and Yobo? I think it went like this....
Moyes: "Joey have you ever, ever in your career, played up front and scored, even in training?"
Yobo: "No boss, I?m a defender."
Moyes: "Sit down then."
Paul Davey
Posted 31/01/2009 at 19:23:05
Big Vic can't even fucking fight properly.
Ray Lupton
Posted 31/01/2009 at 19:27:34
Jesus Christ, Moyes ? can't you see that we are getting nothing from the lump up front.... bring on Gosling or AVDM at least try something different and stop being so fucking predictable.
Gary Mills
Posted 31/01/2009 at 19:27:01
Once again! were a goal down and Moyes fails to show the balls to go for it!
Dan Parker
Posted 31/01/2009 at 19:29:14
We played well, pity about the penalty. Midfield were generally shit though, especially Peanuts, Arteta and Osman. Back 4 outstanding as usual.
Ped Pearl
Posted 31/01/2009 at 19:27:59
I think his thinking was to bring Yobo on at the back and then push Lescott up front.
Viv Sharma
Posted 31/01/2009 at 19:24:45
Dodgy pen for that selfish child. No red card for a 2-footed challenge. No Pen for hauling down JL. The pen they got was similar to the pen that Pienaar won a couple of days ago... oh wait... We've been playing really well against all the odds recently but thank to crying and complaining from scum like Gerrard and Ronaldo etc and more Clattenberg-esque refereeing, we?ve ended with basically fuck all for all our good play and effort.
What a crooked league.
Brian Waring
Posted 31/01/2009 at 19:28:27
So lads, if the foul on Lescott was a bang on pen, then the Lescott foul on Carrick is a bang on pen also?
Jimmy Crack
Posted 31/01/2009 at 19:23:17
I am so sick of Anichebe... No effort whatsoever, then he gets all pissed off and nearly gets sent off, 1 goal in 41 games
Gosling, AVDM, Moyes himself could have done better.
Ralph Wetzels
Posted 31/01/2009 at 19:31:07
I agree, Dan. Fellaini, Arteta and Pienaar were poor today. Both Jagielka and Baines were magnificent. Shame Timmy didn’t nick one today.
Alan Reddish
Posted 31/01/2009 at 19:30:22
I know it's a defeat but we lost to a penalty by the World, European and English champions... well done boy.. Bring on the red shite and a special mention to Tony Hibbert who I thought was outstanding.
Vasco Teixeira
Posted 31/01/2009 at 19:13:34
We were pretty much harmless. Bad, bad game for the blues.
Gerry Quinn
Posted 31/01/2009 at 19:30:03
Without meaning to sound sarcastic or stupid, could someone please give me one good reason for NOT selling Anichebe ? he is awful, uninspiring, argumentative, and if he flails his arms up once more for no reason, I will personally run onto the pitch and drag him off.... whatever happened to the effort and the great running in the Uefa Cup last year? I reckon that if ever we get enough forwards in our squad he will be sold elsewhere at the first opportunity.

Cash in on big Vic now....gotta be worth 3 million to someone and put the cash into someone tricky with a bit of pace.
Brian Waring
Posted 31/01/2009 at 19:31:59
Come on lads, lets not go down that road, wingeing about the ref, as if we have been hard done by again.
As I mentioned above, they had a great penalty shout turned down, and Brown should have been sent off for that challenge, but Pienaar dived in with 2 feet on the edge of the box, and that could have easily been a red. So at the end of the day, they have evened themselves out.
Let's just look at it as a an off-day, and we must do better against the shite.
Gary Mills
Posted 31/01/2009 at 19:38:14
Cash in the bank is better than playing Vic. At least lukas or Gosling will get a go then.
Dan Parker
Posted 31/01/2009 at 19:43:34
Gerry, I?ve got one good reason for not selling Anichebe, he?d have to be free as no-one in their right mind would pay any money for him! (Maybe Charlton or Fulham perhaps...)
Ian Kearney
Posted 31/01/2009 at 19:42:08
How is Anichebe getting the blame for this match?
If anyone else had given Brown a bit back after almost breaking his leg you’d be cheering him. I dont think he will ’make it’, but a lot of you need to grow up.
Si Kirwan
Posted 31/01/2009 at 19:45:05
I think I watched a different game to anybody who criticised pienaar today. Thought he was immense and our only hope. Work rate phenomenal. What's happened to Osman?
Michael Hunt
Posted 31/01/2009 at 19:43:15
Brain Waring, I have to agree. They shaded it today and just deserved the result. As the 11 teams before us found, it is hard to breach their defence. I think with an on form Yak, Saha or Vaughan we?d have posed more of a goal threat, but our defence held firm and Tim Howard was magnificent.
Shame we got nothing today but a 100% effort, 95 min performance at the Old Lady on Wednesday night, backed by the 12th man of the Goodison derby cauldren WILL see us into Round 5 of the Cup and REVENGE SHALL BE OURS, versus Villa on road to Wembley! COYB!!!!
Alex Pilkington
Posted 31/01/2009 at 19:43:17
It was not an off-day. They did well fought hard, & the pen was a bit unlucky... I thought there was a bit of aggro between Moyes and Yobo when he looked like he was coming on... Did he argue?? There are strong rumours that Lescott is on his way to City... Why not try to dump Yobo instead.. He is nowhere near as consistent.....
Neil Humphrey

Ian. he ain?t getting the blame for this game, but he is proving that everytime plays, he ain?t good enough.
