Very poor performance and really lucky to get a point.

Aye. A late steal is much more satisfying than 0-0.
We are inept though. Apart from DDG, nobody is playing to their potential.

Falcao looks like he's never touched a ball before when it comes to him. Shaw kept it from 3 players, passed it to Falcao and he lost it instantly.

Frustrating to say the least.

If we can keep this momentum and carry on picking up points like this, we should comfortably secure a finish in the top half this season. Maybe even top 6!
Not great really. What's going on at all?

Dwight thinks we should play as a pier.

Seems like 11 strangers on the pitch at the moment.

We have been found out by a pretty mediocre team, top 4 looks a serious struggle on this performance.
biglaugh Don't think there was anything to find out. I feel gutted dropping 2 points to such an average team in the last 90 seconds. Still you've got the necessary 40 points for safety now, we still need 3 more.

Take a stty point.

No mention of the clear yellow that Song should have got in the first minute for tripping Adnan. Would've put the brakes on his performance. Never mind. Burnley Wednesday perhaps we'll beat those claret and blues.

Mediocre side against a poor one. Yes you should have a chance.

What has happened to the side I have supported for 40 years? We used to be full of flair, fast attack, fancy footwork, awesome ball control and we were exciting to watch.

Now we are slow, clueless, disjointed and boring, I don't care what history LVG has got it is becoming clear he has no understanding of British football. It is important we win games but I would rather us lose giving 100% and attacking with style than this style we have adopted, we look st.

Some of the first touch and passing is woeful, I see better control when I watch pub games, thses are supposed to be the elite, they should be ashamed.

We need a leader with drive, passion and ambition, all seem sadly lacking at the moment.

Why is Rooney not playing his natural position? why are midfield players playing ahead of him?

dark days are these, the position we are in flatters us in the most embarssing way.

p.s. I live close enough to the ground to know they have scored when I am not at the game!

Not to mention RVP swinging his arms around unnecessarily - lucky to get aeay with that one - although that was his sole contribution to the match highlights

I think we really miss Carrick. He never stands out but when he plays we quicken the tempo and look to pass much better

So disagree with this,he slows the game down going sideways and backwards ,his forward passes rarely create any chances ,and he doesn't score ,tell me how many assists and goals has he made or scored the last 3 years ?
He is s a good player but needs a creative spark alongside him.resutls improved when he came back into the team but performances were still st ..we were lucky against Liverpool and arsenal ,carrick was anonymous and overrun in Both those games.
Lvg has to accept Rooney is not a midfield player.
Di maria looks vastly overpriced ,at that price level his performances are unacceptable.

I wouldn't even play rvp or falcao at the moment,put Rooney upfront with mata the number 10 and playe Herrera in midfield .

The positives are I think blind is quality,and rojo and shaw are worth keeping ,

At the start of the season I could actually see why lvg was trying to do,and although results weren't great ,I thought we played decent stuff and could see exciting times ahead,now I'm scratching my head.

In all fairness, it takes quite an event to merit a yellow in the first few minutes of a game these days.
