I hate that horrible bastard so much. Didn't he do it against Zabba last season after fouling him?

This incident needs its own thread imo, you never know some of the lurking journos might run with it...
 
They are shit!

All this about 'philosophy' is fucking rubbish. Lump it to Fellani and hope for a knock down is the stuff of Stoke!

We should have burried those cunts today!

If Spurs, l'pool etc weren't so bad they'd have no chance at top4
 
Delusions of grandeur over at ragcafe, they actually think that they were on top in that match. They only truly tested Joe on two occasions. They might have had possession towards the end of the game but they failed to do fuck all with it

We did not play at our best, still won which is what was required. They are a very average team and the score line did not tell the true story at all. Ref bottled two clear penalties and we hit the woodwork

Lucky bastards to get off with that score line

No one apart from Chelsea is showing any kind of form at the minute... and unfortunately that is what is allowing them to stay in the mix. Spurs currently losing and the bin dippers are fucking awful at the minute as well

Rank average who deserve to be in 10th place at the end of tonight's game

Dear Di Maria fan boys, this is him not showing up when you really need him.
Poor against Chelsea and us now.
Great on his day but mentally frail espesh when utd are up against it.

He has been very poor last two games, but United were not particularly up against it against Chelsea. He had plenty of the ball and opportunity to do something, but is just in bad form. Still his delivery from free kicks was brilliant, not his corner which are woeful. As for not turning up in big games where do you get that from? Many of his best performances have been in Madrid's biggest games like the 4-3 loss against Barca or the CL final.

More often than not he goes missing in big matches i have found.
Yes he has played great in some to but to often he isn't the man to dig deep as mentioned by another poster, tenacity.

You can paint it how you like but the fact is against Chelsea and us he didn't turn up.
It is all well and good looking good attacking Sunderland and such 3-0 up.
But i could not trust him to have the metal to fight when they are 2-0 down.
His defensive efforts are non existent which is not a plus either.

As I'm With Stupid said it is generally harder for top players to excel in big games for the reasons he has given. The other problem they have is the extra pressure and even more so when you are the sole star player.

Di Maria's poor form started against West Brom and has continued.

Having seen most Di Maria games I can safely disagree with you. He does not go missing more often than not in big games and has been MOTM in several big games. Another game that pops into mind is the CL game when they knocked out United.

As said before he has shown plenty of mental fight in his career and even today he did not lack fight. He did not hide or disappear, but was just very poor.

It seems to be a common excuse to say that a player does not turn up in the big games. We will have to agree to disagree.
 
Yeah your right there bud i agree with that reasoning.
He just doesn't inspire confidence, not the most vocal on the pitch, that type. Struggle to gee themselves up after a glaring miss if you get me, basically a quistionable mental resilience i suppose.

On his day though i fully admit he is fantastic.
 
It's not taken Di Maria to adopt the united way'. He didn't stop diving, cheating and moaning all game
