this is my take on the match:
sometimes it worries me that we have to depend on golden oldies
like scholes to win the match. carrick was as usual, inconspicuous
and his slack clearance at the closing stages was unforgivable at
this level.
Gibson is a player that man u must not keep. He can't tackle,
can't split defences with passes and considering that he has a
thunderous right foot, he couldn't even hit the target that night.
His mere presence starves the united midfield of control and
creativity.
Gary neville was constantly exposed on the right flank in the
first half. Valencia as usual was reliable but there was no Rooney
to meet his accurate crosses. Nani is disappointing everytime he
plays on the left. He can't play on the left at all......poor Nani,
Fergie is not doing him any good.
And van Der Sar was really steady. Without him, Man U would have
lost at least 10 points already. Berbatov has really great skills,
he reminds me of Zidane but sometimes I think he plays too
deep.
They must really buy a creative midfielder next season.
