It was quite the game huh. Watched it with a few friends and we were talking about the style of football that was played compared to what man u played last year. Correct me if I'm wrong (as I dont watch that many of your games) but does it seem that the game plan is entirely different without ronaldo? The amount of times the ball was squared out wide to someone directly on the line was crazy. It wasn't working but was continued for the entire game...?
And also the 3 man midfield..well you know it got dominated.. but was also thinking about the lack of quality balls through the centre of the midfiled and play miaking ability without you know who. Without giggs and scholes (who credit to their past influence, i dont think are that impressive and influencial) do you see the midfeild lacking the creative spark? And no... I'm still not talking about ronaldo, but a cesc/ deco/ ballack combination (phew, that would ba a nice combination). It just seemed that the final ball was lacking, and given the strike force the mancs have, some quality ball into them and there could have been a much bigger chance.
Anyway.. just a thought. Good luck for chelsea, your going to need it. We cant let them slip too far ahead now can we?
