I actually think we done better than expected today, in the end could have came out of there with a result.

Sturridge is still not 100%, one plus was some of the play between him and Suarez,
but this WAS united at home, hardest place to get a result for us..

The linesman should have seen Vidic was offside for his goal.

Are you just going to ignore the first half? if it wasnt for wellbeck and that wee asian lad we would have been 4-0 down at half time.
we were better second half but utd were coasting, fergie will probably roast them for it. suarez was terrible by his standards today. allen was the second worst person on the pitch today. borini did one thing more than sterling who did nothing.
not to worry. its all building up to next week eh?
we're ready for ya norwich!!!!!

the only reason we got back into it was utd switched off because we had been so atrocious in the first half. the scoreline papers over some real problems in that midfield.

overall pretty fair result, United should of been out of sight first half but due to not taking chances allowed us back into the game somewhat in the second half. I thought Sturridge had a decent go when he came on Gerrard also tried and did well for the goal however Johnson's defending was a disgrace for there second goal and when you name a team with Joe Allen and Downing in it you are always going to be up against it, would rather play with 9 men then have those two in my team, bring on Norwich City...

First half was dross, but much better second half. Encouraged by Sturridge, Borrini and Suarez up front. Hopefully the new boys will get fit. Our midfield was awful.

I totally commend BR for not only changing it quickly by bringing on Sturridge at half time.. In place of Lucas was a brave decision..
However bringing on Borini made me laugh (in a good way) That was a ballsy move and I commend him for going at them on their turf.
OK so he got the tactics wrong to begin with but certainly realised that and then went for them!
Not happy with the result, But second half we were clearly the better team.
