I was just on time to see the second half, great performance once again by Carlos, and AJ looking better with every game he plays.....i think i must have missed something really great from Ade in the first half though,..something that warranted him being on the pitch for the second half?...or was he wank all way through?

It must be really dark in there, Fowler has a hat trick in less than 5 mins and I am sure there are others quicker than todays

I seem to be in a minority but I saw Ade doing some great hold up play in the first half, and a few times I could almost have sworn it was Tevez tearing after the ball when they had it...

Fucking hell I am so glad we got Tevez.

I hope Vieira and SWP won't be in the starting 11 again this season.

Can we please recall Weiss, I'd play him ahead of SWP as well.

Very lucky with their sending off/ goalie.

Most of our team were poor.

Thomas must be at least 80 years old.

Yeeeeeeeeessssss. Banana skin avoided.

Guys, how many times have you been watching United games and posting things like "they are crap, they don't deserve anything today" and they come away with 3 points and a convincing scoreboard win? Answer: a lot.

This is Mancio's way. Keep it tight in the first half. Score when they get tired, or down to 10 men. haha

I'm thrilled. I thought we'd lose that one.

He played like an 80 year old 'John Thomas'

Agree. At this point in the season I couldnt give a shit how we play as long as we get 3 points. We actually played pretty well after they went down to ten men though. Top stuff!

like i said i only saw the second half and to me he looked uninterested and off the pace, maybe it's just lack of playing time but i'm worried about his attitude (or lack of)

He never looks interested, even when he is scoring

I thought his passing was poor tonight to be honest - he gave it away too many times (and caused one or two chances against us) plus he was offside too many times - he might be rusty though, after his ban.

I'll give Ade the benefit of the doubt and say its down to lack of game time. His first touch was atrocious and he kept straying offside. Seemed like he'd morphed into some sort of Heskey/Benjani hybrid......only ten times more expensive. The one on one sat up nicely to be dinked over the keepers head.
Balotelli......that's a brilliant finish.

When the referee brandished the red card, I wondered what it was for as I saw Carlos take a swipe at Caldwell, and usually its the person who retaliates who gets it worst.
I don't agree with the commentators, as I think we would eventually have won, although that could have been a stunning 'smash and grab' goal by Moreno: it certainly deserved it.

Tevez was obviously MOTM
But Johnson is looking more and more impressive, and Adebayor was looking willing, just rusty

Central midfield is a concern, though.
What is Mancini at?
