We were very very lucky with this game, truly.
I really don't know what else I can say about Evans. Many times
he was oblivious to movement around him, made one great
interception, but other than that always got on the wrong side of
opponents and relying of the side ref.
Perfect example was just above me, after Torres' miss, it cuts to
Fletcher and Evans who are the closest behind and they stopped in
their tracks, never even tried to run back expecting an
offside.
Either way, I am depressed Rooney missed two chances. I'm happy
for Torres as a player to finally get a goal, because it must be
killing him to be goalless for so long. But let's not forget some
of the saves De Gea made lol.
Good win, but lucky. I hope the momentum continues, and that
performance picks up again. (Like that game against Tottenham, and
Bolton)
agree with you.. MUFC did not really "control" the game esp a
home game.
This was too open, and the results could have swung either way.
MF wise, MUFC is seriously lacking.. The only highlight is Jones
and Wing plays (nani). I still think MUFC needs a Keano or Scholes
type of figure that can control the tempo better and not lose the
ball so often.
Chelsea's strikers had a torrid time, not sure whether MUFC will
have this "good" fortune if faced with more on forms strikers..
Also, in all fairness, two of MUFC's goals were off-site.
Of course, Nani still have a lot to do in the 2nd goal, even when
he first got the ball (offsite position).
