they could do with a plan b going into next season, but it is incredible how he's got them to stick to that style of play and how they haven't panicked at all. i'd imagine that must involve some seriously impressive coaching/psychology/man management in order to establish that level of trust and confidence amongst the players.

plan b's often involved large squads which swansea lack.

universal plan B = get it in the fackin mixer

Ismael Klata, Monday, 2 April 2012 15:37 (fourteen years ago)

Quite right. If Robert Huth playing CF for Chelsea was good enough for Mourinho who is Brendan Rogers to think it's beneath him?

pandemic, Monday, 2 April 2012 15:45 (fourteen years ago)

It's more "change things to ensure you're pressing for an equaliser more securely and not being hammered on the break" than "get in the fucking mixer". I'm not suggesting that turning into Stoke is the way forward for them.

Stoke's plan B is one-touch-instacontrol and unstoppable howitzers

this is why the phrase is so dispiriting, it's like barcelona DO have the capacity to vary their game but yes sadly none of those involve buying robert huth

english football's perpetual plan B was discovered circa 1370 when some enterprising proto-allardyce found a putrid plagueridden horse and decided to try catapulting it over the walls

i guess none of us are watching this and are just assuming it will eventually be a utd 3-0 win?

Thoughts? You must have loads. (a hoy hoy), Monday, 2 April 2012 19:29 (fourteen years ago)

Repeat until May, basically

Ismael Klata, Monday, 2 April 2012 19:30 (fourteen years ago)

I'm watching it

Let's Talk About Socks (Nasty, Brutish & Short), Monday, 2 April 2012 19:35 (fourteen years ago)

0-0 at half-time, United with lots of possession in the final third but few shots. De Gea had to make a flurry of important saves at the end.

Let's Talk About Socks (Nasty, Brutish & Short), Monday, 2 April 2012 19:50 (fourteen years ago)

I'm watching too, naturally

Number None, Monday, 2 April 2012 19:51 (fourteen years ago)

bit too dependent on Valencia at the moment. Formation is oddly lopsided

Number None, Monday, 2 April 2012 19:51 (fourteen years ago)

Jones looking a bit poor

Let's Talk About Socks (Nasty, Brutish & Short), Monday, 2 April 2012 19:54 (fourteen years ago)

I'd take Jones off for Young and tell Rooney to stop faffing about in midfield

Number None, Monday, 2 April 2012 19:55 (fourteen years ago)

Is de Gea the non-Newcastle signing of the season? You owe that guy a lot.

Ismael Klata, Monday, 2 April 2012 20:06 (fourteen years ago)

He's going to be officially labeled 'rubbish' by an ILF poll ending in a couple hours tho.

boxall, Monday, 2 April 2012 20:12 (fourteen years ago)

That's about Daniel de Gea though.

Ismael Klata, Monday, 2 April 2012 20:14 (fourteen years ago)

Better United performance in the stands than on the pitch

Let's Talk About Socks (Nasty, Brutish & Short), Monday, 2 April 2012 20:14 (fourteen years ago)

I'm guessing there just might be a twist in the tail though.

Ismael Klata, Monday, 2 April 2012 20:16 (fourteen years ago)

Really don't think that was a foul by Scholes

Let's Talk About Socks (Nasty, Brutish & Short), Monday, 2 April 2012 20:19 (fourteen years ago)

lovely finish by pedersen (didn't count)

mizzell, Monday, 2 April 2012 20:22 (fourteen years ago)

Jones & Hernandez off - hopefully things'll get better

Let's Talk About Socks (Nasty, Brutish & Short), Monday, 2 April 2012 20:22 (fourteen years ago)

Did the ball go out? I can't tell from the radio.

Ismael Klata, Monday, 2 April 2012 20:23 (fourteen years ago)

Yep, clearly out on the replay. It's irrelevant anyway as they'd stopped playing by the time the shot came in.

Let's Talk About Socks (Nasty, Brutish & Short), Monday, 2 April 2012 20:24 (fourteen years ago)

gahh wtf is this shit come on utd already

r|t|c, Monday, 2 April 2012 20:27 (fourteen years ago)

PSOD (Ste), Monday, 2 April 2012 20:33 (fourteen years ago)

All United but still no fucking shots

Let's Talk About Socks (Nasty, Brutish & Short), Monday, 2 April 2012 20:35 (fourteen years ago)

PSOD (Ste), Monday, 2 April 2012 20:39 (fourteen years ago)

Ismael Klata, Monday, 2 April 2012 20:40 (fourteen years ago)

Good Old-Fashioned Winger!

Let's Talk About Socks (Nasty, Brutish & Short), Monday, 2 April 2012 20:40 (fourteen years ago)

valencia was obv getting fed up of his crosses going nowhere, thought fuckit i'll do it myself

PSOD (Ste), Monday, 2 April 2012 20:41 (fourteen years ago)

NOW they can fuck about passing.

PSOD (Ste), Monday, 2 April 2012 20:42 (fourteen years ago)

0-1 and still no shots

mizzell, Monday, 2 April 2012 20:42 (fourteen years ago)

Fans sound in decent voice tbf

Ismael Klata, Monday, 2 April 2012 20:43 (fourteen years ago)

PSOD (Ste), Monday, 2 April 2012 20:44 (fourteen years ago)

PSOD (Ste), Monday, 2 April 2012 20:44 (fourteen years ago)

Champions!

Let's Talk About Socks (Nasty, Brutish & Short), Monday, 2 April 2012 20:44 (fourteen years ago)

Uncanny

r|t|c, Monday, 2 April 2012 21:09 (fourteen years ago)

"there's a famous saying sir alex says, he says 'the clocks ticking'"

r|t|c, Monday, 2 April 2012 21:10 (fourteen years ago)

you're thinking if i smash him i won't see him again

aka "the Reyes". Thank the lord for Antonio Valenica

Number None, Monday, 2 April 2012 21:13 (fourteen years ago)

the longest passing sequence for a Premier League goal this season
http://i.minus.com/iGfx1G1XEC9jD.gif

Number None, Tuesday, 3 April 2012 16:37 (fourteen years ago)

is there a long ball to a finish after 10 passes, or does the gif just end there?

Thoughts? You must have loads. (a hoy hoy), Tuesday, 3 April 2012 16:51 (fourteen years ago)

i suspect the problem may be on your end

Number None, Tuesday, 3 April 2012 16:54 (fourteen years ago)

said jt to successive world-class managers

less of the same (darraghmac), Tuesday, 3 April 2012 16:57 (fourteen years ago)

loses some of the epic passing sequence notability when it just ends with valencia saying FUCK IT and beating everyone himself anyway.

Boo-Yaa Too Rough International Boo-Yaa Empire (Merdeyeux), Tuesday, 3 April 2012 16:58 (fourteen years ago)

that's the extent of Utd's tactics at the moment yeah

Number None, Tuesday, 3 April 2012 16:59 (fourteen years ago)

if it works, it works.

Boo-Yaa Too Rough International Boo-Yaa Empire (Merdeyeux), Tuesday, 3 April 2012 17:00 (fourteen years ago)

loses some of the epic passing sequence notability when it just ends with valencia saying FUCK IT and beating everyone himself anyway.

Arguably it would if this was the Valencia goal, but it isn't, it's Young's.
