Poor game from United? I thought they played well, they were pressing well, had majority possession. First 20 minutes, United dominated open play. Passing play was fluent. Arsenal got lucky with an open goal and bad defensive errors.
Once Arsenal got the lead, they packed the defence, began to play with an extremely defensive and rigid play. Every man behind the ball.


I have absolutely no idea what game you've been watching, I actually cannot wait for the stats to be released so I can show you this has not been the case. De Gea has also kept you in it in this second half...

EDIT: Just seen some basic BBC stats - Arsenal and Utd both at 10 shots, Arsenal 8 on target, Utd 5 on target. Both on the same amount of corners. These were all that have been given so far. Only thing Utd dominated was possession.


I don't support United, I'm a Peterborough fan. I have been watching the same game as you, I'm giving an unbiased viewpoint.

I thought United played well, a much better game than the performance against Preston and Swansea.

My brother and dad both have season tickets at Manchester United. I decided to support my local team and get Peterborough FC tickets... Because I'm not a glory supporter.


Firstly, I am more than happy to go through with you the reasons why that wasn't the best performance from Arsenal, I'm not giving you a biased view, this comes from years and years of watching football and watching analysis closely. I think all you need to do is listen to the pundits, and see the analysis, both Roy Keane and Peter Schmeichel saying how disappointed they were in that performance.. So if you don't believe me, listen to professionals who are big utd supporters.

Also, I really hope that isn't a dig at people who support premier league clubs...


Did you not know? Every single person in the world that supports a premier league club is a glory supporter. If they weren't in the prem, they'd have 0 fans...

Easily, hate United but De Gea is world class, I was stunned when he saved Cazorla's shot.


One of the best saves this season. He's phenomenal. If we sell him it'll be an astronomical fee.

Roy Keane hates United, he surprisingly has an open hatred for the club, when they offloaded him to Celtic. Just because they played the game to a high standard, doesn't mean they have a more enlightened viewpoint than you or me. I have an actual qualification in sports (GCSE & A Level Physical Education). So, I've been educated to a high standard of the way of multiple sports, we did a whole section (3 months) of sports analysis, I've done actual analysis' of Aviva Rugby Championship matches for local newpapers. I know they've played to the game, but some pundits (like Robbie Savage) don't have a clue what they're on about.

I definitely wouldn't say it was a poor game unless, you mean't but the stupid tackles and diving we were making


YOU LOST , How is that not a bad game? , Have UTD fans gone crazy , Or is having a "Good" game against arsenal (But losing) acceptable for UTD fans now? XD


Other than Matic getting sent off we would be 12 points ahead , No one cares , We didnt win.


Other than the poor decision from Valencia it would've been a replay now.


Other than Matic getting sent off we would be 12 points ahead , No one cares , We didnt win.
You didnt win , You cant just say "Exclusding X" we would of won , Or drew.You lost theres no other way about it



I was saying something there's no need to get angry about it CompleteDesigns.

Maybe you're right I shouldn't be making it excuses and yes we did lose and I accept that.

I am, I just grow weary of the bickering rather than actual conversation. Formality would be key, but certain members are incapable aren't they

1. Roy Keane is a HUGE United fan. Always will be. You have fallen into the trap of thinking he hates United, because he openly hates Sir Alex.

2. Did you actually just quote PE GCSE and A Level at me! I have A levels in Maths, French and Economics - there, we both have now made equally immaterial and irrelevant statements, don't we feel silly! To not be a massive ****, I am going to spare you what was thought of the kids that did PE A Level at my old school.. However, please do not act as if your opinion is more valid on the back of having those qualifications as they are less than useless.

3. I haven't even mentioned Robbie Savage, however, lets carry on under the hypothesis that I had.. He is a professional footballer, who has been employed by one of the biggest broadcasters in the world to analyse football matches. Do you not think he would've had to go through rigorous testing and interviewing to make sure he was capable? Sometimes we forget that we, as fans should listen to people who have an actual idea more..

I agree with everything you said there except the last bit, tbf Savage is clueless, speaks a lot of crap. I remember he was doing punditry alongside Thierry Henry and said to Henry that his Leicester used to rough his Arsenal side up a lot and that Arsenal hated playing against that sort of team, to which Henry responded "we managed".

This was the same Leicester side that would get thrashed 5-1 of Arsenal back in those days, also that Arsenal side were very physical with the likes of Vieira, Petit, Gilberto etc.. He only said that because thats how Arsenal are viewed today as being a weak team, that's just one example, there's many more, Savage is a bad pundit.

I agree that as a person, Robbie Savage is a complete tool.. and I'd imagine what he said there was him trying to make himself seem half as important as Henry ahaha

Of course he says stupid things, but I think when it comes to analysing a football match from a footballers point of view, his opinion should count far more than ours as he's been through it, and experienced it first hand.
