Iv always insisted that Fergie is too smart for his own good in the big games.
Instead of looking at ways to hurt our opposition, he only looks at ways on how we can stop our oppoentns.
He made the same mistakes vs Barca and tonight, he got it very wrong. Even mourinho plays his best XI in El Classicos nowadays and he is renowned for being an overly defensive minded coach
I think saf throws games to teach our players a lesson, look at the crazy team he put out in the champions league final with no nani. Why play scholes and giggs and park with carrick. When carrick is your most fastest player in midfield and most agile you know you are in trouble. If he had played with young instead on the left and valencia on the right it would have been better.
I have a feeling it is not over as man city didn't really create many chances today, in fact if it was 0-0 at half time it would have been fair.

I see wat you mean. I wish indeed that he would at times compare his line ups to the most straight forward one, and from time to time realise simple is the best. It's football, for crying out loud, not chess...
utd are and have never been a team capable of defending for 90 mins everytime we try to do this we concede.
like the two champs lge final, today is another example. So what I am frustrated by yet again is the manner of defeat.
tonight is fergies fault.
everton was the defenders fault
wigan was just - rubbish half ar sed performance from the players
But, his decision to play Park? F Knows, as soon as i saw the team sheet i knew we would create absolutely nothing and hey oh wey , we had 1 shot all game which went higher than rugby posts.
We have our strengths, so do City, so WE should play to our strengths which is WING PLAY, we have some of the best wingers in the league and tonight we just completely ignored that and played a rusty, old and slow side who rarely play together in games these days.
