With this lot? What are you talking about. We have the best defence in the world. Rooney & Berba in great form. Nani is one of the best wingers in the league and Scholes has been fantastic this season. |

TBF Anderson was brilliant today and I thought Park played well. Giggs done well and taking him off after 60 mins means he'll be playing midweek or Saturday. |

Old Hag

awesome comfortable game and we showed some real talent at times, not sure if we are getting back to our old selves or it was the long break our players had or something else. berba and giggs were brilliant, first goal was touching had some quality chances after but gordon did a good job i thought. van der sar quiet all game pretty much but still made a great save or two, will miss him its nice to be so comfortably ahead for a change but we've still got a long way to go and some tough fixtures coming up, including lots of games in a short period of time so lets see how we can handle it. hoping for an arsenal chelsea draw tonight, should be a cracking game ![]() on another note, i decided i'd well snog berbs if i had the chance

That was one of our best perfrmances of the season. The BLackburn game was the turning point, but we were disrupted since then with cup games and games being called off but I knew we'd continue that form and we did The Rooney-Berba partnership is so much better than last year now that they are interchanging alot. Lst year it was Rooney who just stayed high up the field but they are swapping that role all of the time and it is working so well. Rooney is back in that position behind the striker that he has played so well in in the past, and definitely better than last year despite the lack of goals. Looking at our next few games i'd expect us to remain unbeaten up until the end of JAn atleast, and hopefully we will be miles ahead of the rest by then.

Well said. Rooney witht that chip reminded me of Cantona when he did it in the 5-0 over Sunderland. He looks very hungry. Berbatov looks very happy and hungry to. Anderson was brilliant again. And Giggs dominated. Very happy with that. |

You played a team with 6 first team players out anf youre crowing like you played like Barcelona did against Mardid. You won 2-0 against a team you should have got at least 4 and if it was Chelsea or Arsenal who had this result you would be criticising them for it. |

We hit the woodwork 2 times few MM the other side and theres your 4. We created so much and only got 2. The performance was very good, and we've finally got a few good performances to go with the winning. |

Against Sunderland at home when they have 6 first team players out. When you do that to someone worthy then you can start bigging it up. |

We big it up cos' were still top of the league. By 5 points, majority of it has been performing poorly. Last few games the performances have been much better. Nothing wrong with being happy that we won again, this time with a good performance. Regardless of opposition. |

I agree that you haven't played well but against a toothless Arsenal was hardly a scintilating performance. You did play well from what MOTD showed last night but I'm just having a realitry check for you. |

We were defensively solid against Arsenal, that made me happy enough that we didn't look like conceding. And also keeping the form player of the EPL quiet for the majority in that game was good. I got some reality for you, we've been shite for majority of the season yet are unbeaten, top of the league and now 5 points clear. We are starting to hit form at the usual time. |

ohhhhh. we are a bit touchy when the mighty manchester united are questioned aren't we? Your point was that you had played well in the past few games but Arsenal was the most p*** poor football contest I've watched this season. Being defensively solid against an arsenal team unable to string 3 passes together was hrdly the greatest performance. Do what you did to Sunderland against arsenal and you'll get the deserved praise. I got some more reality for you. Guess why every other team hates you? Because of your percieved arrogance. think about that. |

We were efficient against Arsenal. We alamys set up to hit them on the counter and the team did the job that they were asked to do. We were never going to do what we did against SUnderland to Arsenal, Fergie wouldn't even try it. |
