Seriously though, going back to my earlier post, Giroud was absolutely all over the place for most of that match. It was so annoying how in terms of movement and positioning it seemed like he did the exact opposite of what he should have been doing whenever Arsenal got possession.
Whenever someone in midfield needed him to come short he turned tail and legged it forwards hoping for the ball over the top. Whenever someone got wide and whipped the ball in at the near post he decided to run behind all of the City defenders to the back post rather than attacking the cross. Really got up my nose.
There are obvs still questions over his general ability in terms of technique etc... but I've not seen anything so alarming in that respect that suggests to me he can't make it at this level. But you'd expect a Sunday league player to be able make the runs he should have been making today.

It's really just semantics though. It was Fergie's decision and the board just blindly approved it.

The point is they didn't have to. It was their decision to let him decide

Indeed, can't see how it's semantics whatsoever, if they'd gone another way, would it have even been mentioned by Fergie. Seems to me they copped the easy way out and then gave the responsibility of it to Ferguson.

Yeah that's such a good result for them today, Atletic don't really do losses at home this season.
Yeah I didn't think they would get a win today, it is all going down to Atletico v Barcelona on the last day of the season which will be all the more amazing because both will be desperate for Real not to win it.
Missed so much good football today, never enjoy having to make do with MOTD.

That was a cracking game but you know you are down when you have a goal like the first and then a clear offside against you.

Speaking with a few mates last night, both reds and none, and key points agreed upon:
1. This game could be 6 or 7 nil and it wouldn't be a shock
2. It shows you how bad Moyes' United have been that they are below Tottenham
Biggest team of FTBs the prem has ever seen, just absolutely bottle it against any good side
