1. welbeck was class. 2. rooney broke a goal scoring record and he now has a good chance of pipping rvp for the golden boot. 3. nani has gained form sooner rather than later. 4. WE DIDNT LOSE:-)

great attacking play today. nani scoring twice in a row. rooney catching up with RVP going to give him motivation. welbeck gained confidence. and our defence got slapped in the face (hopefully again in the dressing room) so they're more likely to be awake for the city game. and evra gave unignorable proof that he should be benched. plenty of positives I'd say.

DPC:
This is not easy as i would really like to rip into certain players but i thought Nani,Rooney and Welbeck were very good today I'm pleased Nani is back he looks better for every game he plays,Welbecks best game of the season linked up great with Rooney.We just need to be better in midfield and defence clean sheet at City is what i dream of play it like away in europe (ok maybe not this seasons european campaign)

I was very impressed by Nani. His attacking was err, okay. But he chased down and made Wellybeck's goal. Welbeck was good too, nice link up (I was oh so impressed by that dummy and set up for Rooney's goal. Rooney himself tried a dummy and it didn't work, and if you can best Rooney you're going to be something special). Those were my main positives, Evra and Ferdinand dominate my negatives (Ferdi for this game only though). Little Pea unimpressive as always, too. Otherwise it was so-so.

What f*****g positives? There aren't any! We just threw the league title away. No,we just gift wrapped it and sent it to city with blue ribbons on it. So excuse me if I'm not feeling positive. I'm so f*****g pi$$ed off with our teams ridiculous defensive display it's unbelievable. 4-4 against Everton.....at home for f***s sake! After being 4-2 up! It's a f*****g insult!

i will be postive if Sir Alex start with this XI. Only 3 changes. Out with Rio, Evra and Carrick. In with Smalling...quicker,more aggresive and better in the air than rio. Phil Jones like O'Shea was a left back for us. Quick and brave Jones to cope with quick Silva and Richards. Cleverley in for Carrick. Carrick is so same kind of player like Scholes, only passing, precise, but only passing. Cleverley is quicker with and without the ball, plus Cleverley can make good run forward from the central midfield. Scholes as the deeper holding central midfield and Cleverley a more offensive role to help our attack. Bring more pace in 3 changes, aggresive and braveness....will help us a lot.....and are reasons.....why i will be positive rest of the seasons. Looking for reasons to make me positive. Reason to get a good result, the factors. Jones, Smalling and Clevlerley were really good when Vidic, Rio, Scholes and Carrick were was playing....go back to the success receipt/factors Sir Alex. Never change something tha work, never change a winning team.

De Gea - Rafael - Evans - Smalling - Jones + Valencia - Cleverley - Scholes - Nani + Rooney - Wellbeck. A rock solid United's Eleven. Has everything, pace with and without the ball, braveness, air ability, winning mentality, guts and punch and good ball players = i will be positive, positive and positive....many good reasons to be positive and optimism. United couldnt cope with the pace....the pace of our enemies players and in the passing playing. Benfica, Bilbao, Wigan, Basel and Everton. Negative is the opposite of positive. Since quicker players and more braveness makes me positive. The reason that made me negative was the lacking of pace...with and without the ball....made us struggle. We do have quicker, faster and more brave players in Smalling, Jones and Cleverley. And special Smalling and Jones will help us a lot in the air and their braveness will help us in the defend. Attacking players hate defend who are giving them short of time and space. I just hope sir Alex goes back to the winning formation and receipt early in the season. rio back against city, red and everything went wrong. Then Rio back to the bench the game after, we won back solid aganst Everton away. No goal from Everton at home. 4 away.

Attack and midfield did very well today.But we lacked concentration in defense especially when we were leading!

Man Utd for evra:
I don't see what is so bad about the position we are in. People are making it out that we have no hope and that its in City's hands, well in that case it is very much still in our hands too. We can still afford a draw against City and let's not forget that they still have to go to Newcastle after us. As for today, we just seemed to fall asleep at the wrong time as the game looked pretty much wrapped up.

You are probably right if this was offered at the start of the season we would take it every year wouldn't we?

Though some where there, they don't outweigh the fact that we conceded 4, at home! Far too many yet again.

Seems to be no real tactical awareness or ability to react from the management. At 4-2 given the trouble Everton had given throughout the game, should have beefed the defense up to see the game put to bed. Yet more points thrown away, nowhere near good enough.

Turn up like this at the etished and we'll get nothing.

Positive - negative. Rooney playing poorly still scoring goals Valencia needed a rest game too many Nani should have been at right wing - deadly Ferdinand shake of the head at end. Legs just don't move but brain didn't work today either

I thought some of our attacking play today was fantastic.

mosley909 — Sun, 22 Apr 2012 17:41:14 GMT

maybe welbecks best game yet, certainly showed they player he could be in a few years

also most of our forward play(which was briilliant at times) wasn't utterly reliant on scholes play making which has been the case in recent weeks, which gives us hope for future
