I would prefer to win 1-0 than draw 3-3 against a team who, let's face it, United should have beat with minimum fuss

Utd messed up big time in summer but choosing to ignore the one area we NEEDED a top player, and that was CM.

As I've said number of times we are VERY weak centrally.

I think everyone agrees we needed a top player in the centre CP ..

Cleverley getting injured has put a small spanner in the works in that aspect.

I think our midfield looks worse when Rooney is not playing because he does drop deep and brings some control and creativity to the centre.

How can 95% of the fans see that we need a quality CM but the management can't ? Maybe they can but are loyal ? Maybe they are waiting for the next big things Pogba,Tunnicliffe,Morrison
or ???? I just don't get it. Keane was a colossus, before that Robbo was and even Ince briefly was superb as our midfield general. We need a midfield general and a 'New' Scholesy. Scholesy still could have ran that show tonight quite easily!!!!!

OP; Anderson keeps possession very well with his close control and he displayed that tonight. A very professional and effective performance from the lad.

I like Anderson, and i think hes pushed on this season.

But keeping possession really is not his strong point, he plays everything too fast at times and he seems to have trouble controlling a football ..

His strength is his drive forward, he always wants to push on and drive his team forward which gives us impetus in our attacks and makes us play at a higher tempo, which is always a good thing imo.

We just dont have anyone right now who can control a game and slow it down when things get a little out of control.
