Dexter Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 It's the first game of the season, so it's not like they desperately needed the points. Like I said, I do think there is some quality in their team, and we know for damn sure they can give teams a right good game, so I'm just pretty damn disappointed to see them play like this. Is this how we're going to see every team outside the top 6 play against us? Weather its the start or the end of the season, all the points count just as much. That point could well keep reading up, you never know. Utd must have surley known that reading wouldnt come to outright attack. They would get slaughtered.

Dexter Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 Rooney has a hailine fracture in his left foot. He's broken his leg...again... there goes the title. Hairline fractures are the worst. They say its better to completley break the leg, clean. Heals better and quicker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

immy Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 screw you man u fans. Maybe you don't understand supporting a big club but this is the way a team like reading has to play to get a result. You spent 50 million in the summer we spent 500 thousand. How do you expect us to compete without playing defensively Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramar Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 Well Chelsea complaining about their injury "crisis" we now are without any strikers. Hmmm whats worse Terry injured or your whole strikers out? ROFL Chelsea have a lot more than just Terry out. And shame about Rooney he's in my dream team.

Daft Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 Well Chelsea complaining about their injury "crisis" we now are without any strikers. Hmmm whats worse Terry injured or your whole strikers out? No one has really complained, it more just an inconvenience. Its United's fault for not having sufficient backup. Had we not brought in reinforcements in defence Terry's injury really would be a crisis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ant-Shimmin Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 Some Major Knee Jerking on the forum here... Reading came out, had a plan, stuck to it, got a result simple as really United weren't good enough Poor Finishing from United It's Still Early Season Some People Need to Calm Ze Fuck down, United still have Tevez to come but having said that It has yet to be seen if United have a plan B against teams like Reading who will come and defend. United just looked out of options half the time. Still, 2 Points Dropped and as they said on Sky it's the kind of league where every point counts... The League isn't won or lost on the first day of the season it's still a long road ahead.... Fulham last year didn't really go their with the intention of winning either, not to my recollection anyway. The fact is, Reading are not a newly promoted side, they have definite quality in their team, and they should be gunning for a top 10 or so finish this season. I'm a little bit disappointed to say the least in a team such as Reading to see them play in such a way, especially as I thought they had aspirations. Reading too have aspirations but at the end of the day their are places in the league, Anfield, Stamford Bridge, Old Trafford, Emirates to name a few where any result is a good result...

BlueStar Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 I'm just pretty damn disappointed to see them play like this. Play like what? Effective? Great way to play at Old Trafford, I'd be happy to see every team outside the top 4 play like that there. To be honest, we're going to be in for a very long and boring season if teams continue to play like this. It'll be 10 times as boring if teams go to grounds like Old Trafford and turn over like good little minnows, just acting as fillers between the games between the big four and to make up the numbers. I know that's what the marketing dept and the Far East 'fans' want, every match to be the Harlem Globe Trotters against some no-marks, but it's better for the game if teams are willing to play ugly and grind out unexpected results. If your game plan for the season if to expect teams like Reading to come to old trafford and play open attacking football so you can breeze through them and stick four or five past each game, you're not going to hold on to the title very long.

Zechs Merquise Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 screw you man u fans. Maybe you don't understand supporting a big club but this is the way a team like reading has to play to get a result. You spent 50 million in the summer we spent 500,00 thousand. How do you expect us to compete without playing defensively Come on, it was a little boring. People just want to see a flowing game. I was disappointed with the result, but hey, you can't win them all, and there's still 37 games left to go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
