macheda!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the power of the stretford end!

i almost broke a lamp in my room jumping up and down after the goal.

villa played good did they deserve a point hell no we played bad at times and they capitalized.

my thoughts after this game:

- nani get him off our books ASAP! take the loss sell sell sell. he has not shown any glimpses of promise this season or his time at united. we payed alot of money and id rather have park, ronaldo, (poss tosic), and if were lucky ribery on the left wing.

-ronaldo i hope we dont sell. hes not having a season like last year but i knew he prolly couldnt do 42 goals again. still hes the worlds best and i want him here for a long time.

-our youth need a chance! fergie should take mecheda goal as a sign that we need to give our home grown youth a run out. we always dont need to buy buy buy when we have cheaper talent at our academy and training grounds. macheda, petrucci, gibson, welbeck, i hope we give them all a chance here.

-so happy for macheda. he had a hat trick for the reserves last week. i knew he was good but scoring on his debut wow! he has the number 9 qualities i think we have missed since ruud left.

-FERGIE! sell berba!!!!! or at least invest a number 9 or better yet macheda more playing time please. we need that back to the goal poacher in our attack.

-tevez love the guy im still iffy on signing him but he said hes willing to take a pay cut and id rather have him than berba anyday.

- our midfield plain and simple we need hargreaves back. scholesy is runnin out of steam, fletcher is awesome i just think hargeaves is better. carrick is class but gets overwhelmed when he dosent have a midfield enforcer who can give him time to pull the strings.

all in all feels good to get back on track!

never liked the signing of berba and still don't. tevez needs to be kept i love this guy if more players with skill work as hard as he does the game would be better. he plays the way they teach you when you first learn to play (play hard and never give up on the ball)

I was aware of his skills in the reserves and told my bro he was trained by and will be the next Solskjaer. I'm glad he didn't disappoint.

a little early to compare him to ole. but he has alot of upside. and we still havent unleashed petrucci.

Tevez is a class apart. Anyone that says otherwise can eat it. As for Macheda, the kid brings newly found confidence to the addition to his natural confidence that he brought along when subbed in. Did you guys see how he asked for the ball, then proceeding to outright trick Young with that clever flick into space. Simply brilliant.

tevez is class but he played like shit against aston villa. i love the hustle but more and more hes giving up possession and gettting caught out of place. hes good but im not sold on him. although as i said id rather have him than berba but i want benzema!

nogi not sold??? come on now... just look back at the goals tevez scored... in 07/08 the amount of points he won for man united was rediculous! blackburn,liverpool,hotspurs, chelsea, the boy scores goals that matter! cliche-ish but quality over quantity.....

i need to watch more benzema club play because he sucked it up at euro 08

I was going to say how Everton was playing one hell of a game, up until the point where Webb gifted Villa with the draw...so far...

welbeck, mancheda and anderson played wank. mancheda showed he was just a flash in the pan and is so overrated it makes me cringe for the lad, he's been given this enormous buildup by the press because of two vital goals. anderson needs to be playing furthur back, which is odd because i thought he would be more attacking, but his passing range is like scholes' (not as good though). welbeck isn't strong enough yet, needs to fill out.

props to everton though, they deserved it. SAF, whilst he is the best manager ever, underestimated them today. he put out a young team (i was impressed with the full backs and foster again) and paid the prices for no ronaldo, carrick, no rooney (although roo was injured).

7th is slipping away from west ham unfortunately, we deserve it instead of the dirty yids. we have arsenal/manchester united/liverpool (will be going to the pool game, may 9th!) left, gonna be tough.

first off i want to say im sad we lost today but there were highlights.

SAF put out this team on purpose. even though we lost and he did not want to lose we won in the long run. we saw how the twins, gibson, anderson, macheda, welbeck,foster would perform in a 88000 plus wembley statdium in an fa cup final. I was impressed from what i saw from most of the youngsters considering everton are class and lets face it most of the starting 11 would never get pkaying time in that situation for united. it gave them all a confidence boost and shows saf wants these youngsters to succeed. i m proud of how they stood up to everton and did not back down.

tevez put the nail in the coffin. Do NOT SIGN HIM! unless he takes a wage cut and that 30 million pound tag falls off. im grateful for what hes done for us til now but his endless running amounts to no goals and rooney plays the position better. and with welbeck, macheda, poss campbell id rather not spend 30 mil on him.

anderson needs to go on loan and find out what and where he needs to play because his trial and error in games is costing us and he has the tools he just needs games and confidence back. id send him to a promotion club for a year loan and see what pans out next season.

WOW. Liverpool v Arsenal...what a game. Sloppy eight-goal mess, a solid draw for the Goons at Anfield I suppose. Looking for wins though, we need to maintain momentum

I wanna hear of a top performance tonight. It's a golden chance to put some points between United & Liverpool. Great game yesterday but Arsenal, when it matters, can't hold a lead for shit. Wenger keeps talking positive but there going backwards.

He can only bring himself to drop big money like once every 5-6yrs.
Good results tonight, although I heard United were mad wasteful. Chelsea are more or less out of the title race now. Defenitely a missed chance from Arsenal to close the gap on them before they meet.
