Insipid performance from players and management. Not much there I enjoyed watching. Good to see Smalling back on the park; but Carrick AND Giggs in central midfield - for 90 minutes? Fergie letting sentimentality get the better of him I reckon - thought it was a game where he could give him some game time but those games don't exist anymore. We were chasing the game (yet again, clearly something is not right when they walk on the pitch) and yet he takes off Ferdinand, Valencia and Hernandez and puts on Scholes, Anderson and Welbeck. If we're 1 nil down wouldn't you add Welbeck, Anderson and Cleverley and replace Giggs, Ferdinand and one of the wingers and drop Carrick to centre back? Yet 1 nil down we had Giggs, Scholes and Carrick trying to pull it back (that plan is at least 3 years out of date and probably more!). And, while I'm having a wee rant, can anyone tell me why RVP is taking corners - esp. when Giggs is playing? Flippin' eck. Fergie's losing it.
