If we carry on playing like this in the same pattern as previous away games, the best we'll get is a 0-0 draw and at worst we'll lose the game 1-0.

Have to up the tempo, quicken the passing and vary our play - use the width for fuck's sake. Fizz crosses in on the floor and in the air.

I hate to say it but when United are desperate for a goal they cross the ball in the box time and time again and get bodies in there, something usually happens for them. We cannot continue to just solely look to pass the ball through the middle of Stoke's defence in the final 3rd. Really is so frustrating.

Dzetko is not good enough at all, i reckon he'll be gone end of season, Mourinho is supposed to be after him if the romours are correct, Ballatelli on the other hand hasn't done fuckall either.
Any of the two as long as we get Tevez on he always scores against Stoke.

Never mind the quality, feel the width. Hopefully.

I hope we are not losing when Tevez comes on. Surely only going to be one goal in the game and it could go either way.

They arent really threatening but neither are we.

I don't think everyone should be so quick to want dzeko out of the club.


he hasn't been starting and is most likely also out of confidence and doesn't appear to know his role in the team.
he's a confidence player.


sub him off in this game for tevez, but I still think he has a huge part to play at this club.

Not good enough so far. Too slow, backwards and sidewards. Stoke is well up for it(as any team we face).

We seem to be very exposed at left back. Luckily Stoke don't seem to have a right winger. We are ragged at midfield. I would put Tevez on at the 60 minute mark. BTW I think Edin will score for us from one of Clichy's crosses.

Stoke are a dirty side--that fist on Silva should have been a red card. Eccentric referee at times. But he did let us off a possible penalty on Barry (I think he got the ball first).

this, we should up the pace and also play wide, in midfield we have to many bodies and then we have no room to move the ball

bunch of whiners.

Dzeko is poor today, but neither Balo or any other player are any better.
Stop fu...g whining. Lets get some crosses in and pick up a pace a little.

There is a difference when you go down when fouled and when you act like a clown as Barca players do.
I prefer the first. Don't know why you'd want to see MCFC as a club with reputation of being horrible divers
