Deflections

Why, of why, everytime we, or anyone else for that matter, always get done when playing United by lucky deflections which seem to find their way to one of their players in a perfect position to shoot or set up a goal. It happens all the time and it does my head in. We put good blocks, nice tackles in but the ball always seems to find its way back to them for a goal.

Just got back from the swamp and a still feel sick :-(

PS: GIGGS FUCKING RETIRE ALREADY!

Zab should've thrown himself in front of Scholes' shot. Instead his legs were wider than Shrek's missus.

Its not just us that gets fucked at that ground, everyone does.

That said Eastlands is fast becoming our fortress like the swamp is theres.

Home advantage really does make a difference it seems.

Not necessarily - sometimes you throw on a 6th defender.

Easy one that MRM. It's called the Law of Averages!

When you retain possession, play high tempo. up the ante and create plenty of pressure on the opposition ....... sooner or later you will get the break that you deserve and the ball will bounce in your favour.

In other words, he who attacks the most ...... normally get the breaks

It ain't rocket science.
