I know its a draw but....

[softlad]

Does anyone else think that we showed a complete lack of ambition tonight?

The amount of times we failed to move into space so were forced into playing the ball backwrds was unreal. Barry and the CB's must have passed to Hart about 15 or 20 times.

We showed no desire for the majority of the game, save for NDJ and possibly VK I thought alot of players went missing......

We played to their strenghts by continuosly slowing the game down all the time. It seems as is even Hart was instructed to slow it down, he repeatedly kept hold of the ball, allowing them to get back and re-organise....

75 mins to bring Johnson on? We need (and want) to be winning these games. Why wait so long? He is an impact player, but 15 minutes is not enough.....

We seemed happy for a draw after 10 minutes.

In my mind, Ade should have been brought on earlier, given the amount of times we launched it into the box searching for Carlito or Silva, we needed him.

I am firmly in the Mancini In camp, but I cant accept a performance like that, especially against Unit*d.

A point is a point, but for me, thats not good enough.

Something needs to change. Our Ethos, our expectations or dare I say it our Manager....

a very big pile of shit! if we had palyed like that and lost this forum would be off it's tits

 

[me myself and i]

lacked ambition. still its a a point and united didnt score in the last minute. better than a loss

 

[persvenality cult]

in reality, neither team could afford to lose, and boy did it show.

great moment at the end of the TV coverage, Mancini and Fergie shared what they thought would be a private grin.

We've lost the last 4 derbys against United. They are undefeated this season so there was no way we were going to simply roll them over.

We are firmly in the top 4 so to talk of changing manager is wrong.

We gained a point over last season...the shite dropped two it is a marathon NOT a fucking sprint!

I understand that, and I firmly believe in continuity, but if that is a sign of things to come now is the time for change.

Why bring Ade on for 90 seconds? There was absolutley no need, he should have been on earlier, Vidic and Camel Gob never looked ruffled.

If there was ever a time to turn them over, it was tonight......

Mancini...the worlds most boring manager. Typical Italian shite...United were there for the taking and we bored them to death.
I don't blame the players as they were 100% committed to the cause...just the managers tactics!!

take the point fella looks like both teams were happy

 

[Nelly's Left Foot]

I need the phrase " winning mentality" to be explained to me.

I guess it's something we havent got and are still trying to work on.
