We took Falcao off in the 59th minute, got Young and Herrera on and we looked a much better team
Did Falcao still look like a boy playing amongst men?
That ACL really has ruined him. Such a shame really. A Radamel Falcao circa 2011-13 would've been PERFECT for us.
Falcao was very ineffective. Hernandez may have scored a few if he was here as Falcao had 1 chance he underhit pass to Rooney instead of shooting and 2 balls if he timed his run he would most likely score.
We always had good control of the game but we didn't look like we had a goal in us until LVG made the change.
No pace or speed in our game at all. When we took the woeful Falcao off and brought on some energy, width and pace in Young, we looked a threat.
It's not rocket science. Even league two and league one clubs can cope with our slow tippy tappy turgid football. It's been proved in the cup. Only when we play with speed have to looked a cut above.
Falcao shouldn't start another game for us, unless we have no Rooney or RVP to choose from.
I think that game efficiently showed Falcso will no longer reach his top level days
At least we won away from home.
Swansea away up next. Going to be a toughie and LVG has to get it right. Falcao needs dropping.
Swansea weren't even great against our weakened side 1st game of the season so they resorted to kicking lumps out of our players as they could barely get the ball let alone attack. Fluked 2 goals and it was wave after wave of Man utd pressure with only a very weakened Man utd side. Reckon we might win 4-0.
Its a horrible cliché but I think it really rings true. Defenders HATE trying to defend against pace.
I've always been a big believer in pace being redundant if you can't match it with an end product, but we have proven over the years we play much better when we play with speed and purpose and this slow football that is infront of defenders is really doing us no favours.
Really need to improve our away form.
I think we will sneak a win at Swansea Darren.
Haven't seen much of Swansea recently but they've looked poor when I have.
Need to carry on picking up three points because we've got a tough run in. Would be nice to hopefully has a bit of a cushion by the time those games come along.
