It's not the rage at Jones. It is the rage at substituting our best player (Scholes) for Valencia, when our most anonymous player remained on (Giggs)
Jones wasnt bad defensively. His crossing was just awful, which is fair enough I guess, as he isnt a RB.
Bubbly - As for Scholes, he simply cant play for more than 65 mins. He played for about 85 against Everton, and they walked past our midfield to score two goals.
Zabaleta had a field day charging down our left, and its not even likes hes quick!
Although I have to say, that wasnt really Evra's fault, GIggs simply didnt have the legs to help out promptly enough.
I've seen a bit of hate going round at the defence, and just thought I'd stick up for them as I think they did pretty damn well.
As for Scholes, think Bloodred nailed it. Scholes simply can't play 90minutes, especially against a high tempo City team. And with no CMs on the bench, it becomes an issue.
I thought defensively United were fairly sound apart from the marking for City's goal. It was going forward that United were really poor. No cohesion with the passing, and not enough ambition to move the ball forward.
Fergie must have known Scholes cant play 90mins so why did he leave Cleverley out altogether?
Why have Berba, Hernandez AND Welbeck on the bench. What is going on!
wasn't Zabaleta on the right?
I thought United defended well tonight, Smalling lost his man at the corner apart.
ignore
I misread your post
Should the answer be we shouldn't rely on 38 and 37 year olds in our CM ???
I think it's time the club faced up to the task and replaced them.
Been putting if off for years and years
