[Good Golly I'm Olly]

First topic message reminder :

Thought I'd pop one of these up...

Norwich currently beating Bury 3-0, Ravel Morrison gives Dolphin a boner with a goal on full debut

MK Dons currently leading Sunderland 2-0 meaning Sunderland players shall be starved tomorrow

Peterborough absolutely spanking a strong Reading side as well

[LastDamnation]

DON VITO!

[Bull]

Why wasn't Hernandez given the last penalty....

[mystiroakey]

Well done Sunderland..

Anyway puncheon proves to be premier league standard.....

[Fernando]

Because he's a bottler.

Sunderland have beat Chelsea/United - Citeh to go then

#Wigan2.0

[Hammersmith harrier]

Maybe because he had cramp and couldn't run at the end of the game possibly.

[Dolphin Ziggler]

Awful penalties. Nothing can go right for Moyes

[Fernando]

it's a 3 yard run/walk if your Januzaj up. Man the Frak up

[Mad for Chelsea]

well that has to go down as the worst penalty shoot-out ever, surely? Three bazed miles over the bar, two more which my grandma could have saved. The saves off Fletcher and Rafael were decent enough, but the rest were awful. Note to Hodgson: Welbeck shouldn't take one at the WC...

[Bull]

United need German players in order to take penalties...

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Incredible incredible incredible lolz at Man Utd.

[The Special Juan]

Worse than England, wasn't it? When you looked at those Utd players only Fletcher looked confident. The rest were soiling themselves

[Duty281]

Those penalties were something else.

Still nothing going right for Moyes.

[mystiroakey]

BH the way.

What is going on with Rafael this year..

Shockingly bad.. How he keeps playing is beyond me.. And then this is the player to take the final pen..

[mystiroakey]

Those penalties were something else.

Still nothing going right for Moyes.

Nothing can go right if you do everything wrong..

[The Special Juan]

I don't see what he's done wrong?  (I'm going to bed, don't bother replying as I won't see it until after 6pm tomorrow)

Sorry, that sounds really flippant. It's really not meant to be a flippant comment, I genuinely won't see anything until tomorrow evening.

[GSC]

Ultimately it's not Moyes fault. He was left a severely depleted squad, masked by the fact that United were able to cruise to last years title by being the only team not to implode. Really felt a trip to Wembley would do his credibility some good mind.

[mystiroakey]

Moyes hasn't done much right bar the cl games so far. The two teams were evenly matched over 210 mins.one is a relegation candidtae and one is united.

If his team plays like that why should his team deserve luck to get through.

[NickisBHAFC]

Every English player misses a penalty. Great.

Not Moyes fault, his team was awful. De Gea and his penalty misses all to blame.

How on earth do professional footballers actually miss penalty's that badly? Beyond belief.

last time i checked moyes was the manager so it is hios fault the team is crap. he spent 30 mil on fellani and spent all summer chasing fabregas and baines.

[mystiroakey]

So you lot believe that Moyes deserves something to go right for him

Why?

What are you lot smoking.

Sunderland won and deserve credit.. End of story

[Ent]

Have to say I would never let phil jones take a penalty as he has little or no technical ability.

Wouldn't have trusted rafael with one either.

Still at least now we won't get molested by city at wembley, happy enough with result.

[hampo17]

Awful penalties, non of them apart from Darren Fletcher appeared able to put the ball in corner.

What odds would you have gotten for the first leg to finish 2-1, the second leg to finish 2-1 and the penalties to finish 2-1?

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

At least Utd can now 100% concentrate on trying to achieve that significant top ten berth   

[Duty281]

In terms of luck and good fortune, nowt's falling for him.

He could throw a £20 note in the air and it would come down as a court summons. Just the way it works.

Is Moyes in full charge of transfers though? I'm led to believe he isn't.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

But in all seriousness that was like watching Norwich play. Why on earth are you holding on for dear life against Sunderland at home in the 2nd half/Extra time. Shambles

who is then?

[Fernando]

Reports of a car coming up the M6 doing a sudden u-turn on the northbound carriageway. Rumoured to be Juan Mata..   

[mystiroakey]

For moyez, united or in general?

Would imagine that Woodward fella has a big say, like Gill did when Fergie was there. Pretty rare for a manager to have 100% say over transfers in this day and age

I think his name is Ed Woodward, he's the chief executive.

[mystiroakey]

Well even if Moyes isn't in total charge of transfers . the comment was in regards to fellani.

I think we all know who sanctioned that deal.

[GSC]

Woodward is an urban legend

[Hammersmith harrier]

No manager nowadays is in control of transfers, Fergie was fortunate in that the recent past he had Gill who knew exactly what he was doing. Gill leaving has impacted the club just as much as Ferguson, they were the perfect combination.

[mystiroakey]

Hammersmith.

Its better to look at the situation at hand. Fellani came to the club because of Moyes. No one else.

However on the flip side you may be signing the transfer of the season tommorow!

£37 million is a bit too much, he is not worth that.

[mystiroakey]

The proof will be in the pudding.

If it gets them CL then its a bargain

[Champagne_Socialist]

They could get Ibrahimovic for that amount. mata has barely played all season and hasn't played for 3 weeks. Rooney will leave in the summer so they will need to replace him and possibly Van persie as well.

Ibrhimovic would be a lot better and I am sure PSG would sell for £40 million.

You high? Mata is a boss

[Ent]

Actually pretty cheap considering how desperate we are currently and it is in January.

[Hammersmith harrier]

Yes because we need Ibrahimovic when we have Rooney and Van Persie. If we sign Mata it disproves all the BS you've been spewing everywhere about champions league, if Ozil is worth £42mil then Mata isn't far off that.

would PSG have sold him in this window?

What BS am I speout CL that you signing Mata would disprove? last time I checked you are in the CL......

[compelling and rich]

i said at the start of the second half that we need to push on and kill the game off but we did the usual trick under mr negativity and sat back and allowed a poor sundeland team come at us

frigging hell, moyes was talking about extra time before kick off!! that would never have even entered fergies mind. people can say about missing players all they want but that exact same team under fergie would have walked to the final as we wouldn't have sat back and we would have killed the game off

those penalties sum up our season, cant even kick a ball properly

[Champagne_Socialist]

Actually pretty cheap considering how desperate we are currently and it is in January.

£40 million for a player who is cup-tied in the CL and who has barely played all this season and not played for nearly the last month.

Yes he might make the difference but there are a lot better players to buy and if you spend 40 mil on mata you still need to spend 40 mil to replace rooney in the summer when he leaves.

[Champagne_Socialist]

I'm just saying that if chelsea sold him to Athletico madrid for eg in the summer he would go for about 18-20 mil not the 40 mil man u will pay.
