Was watching the scrolling text on BBC online whilst at work, knowing that Arsenal were 2-0 up. Watching paint dry was better until about the 55th minute when United seemed to wake up a bit and actually began shooting! And why oh why did he put Park on instead of either Giggs or Nani? The mind boggles!

When I saw we were piling pressure on I said to a mate that we would score in the next 5 minutes or Reading would - we did!!

how many times do you see a side roll up a huge score one week but cant buy one the next week . the two rons pulled it out of the fire for us . stevie coppells boys grabbed a draw early doors so this has to be seen as a great result .

yeh bbc text isnt good to watch its just blubber until there is a goal

Phewwwww.....

Just glad to get Reading out of the way.....

We never have much luck against them.....

0-0 and 2-0 this year which is about average.....

In the last 15 against them now.....

We have 8 wins...7 draws...I think which for United is poor.....

All the people with the 4-0 and 5-0 forecasts might be in luck on Saturday, lol.....

It is only Spurs after all.....

United made hard work of it as usual, but we got the 3 points. Certain Rooney seemed off form but I am sure he'll be banging in the goals next game!

I just keep asking myself, why isn't Nani a regular player yet?
Everytime he comes in, he has dangerous crosses, shots, passes, everything. *^)

Rooney did have a bad game.....

I think we all agree on that.....

However.....

He still managed to score.....

Which is encouraging because when he has bad times before he was really bad !!

.....and the goals stopped too.......

The most important thing is that we got all three points!

Well that goes without saying.....

But much nicer to win easy......

Than have to struggle for an hour.....

Then scrape the wins.......

A few heart stopping moments is good. If United stroll every match then it will be boring i guess.

A very tough game on Saturday. We were lucky at times but the team put in a lot of hard work and it eventually paid off.

Rooney's flick with the outside of his foot for the goal was an excellent bit of skill and Ronaldo can't seem to go a game without scoring.

 

[akash_reds]

thank God ronnie is in form...i cant think of a united without ronnie and his goals!!!!!!!!!!

i knew we'd win when hargreeves came off. is it just me or do we not look like scoring or winning when he plays. every game we've dropped points, he has started and he hasn't started too often.

he gives the ball away too much and slows down our play. tbh he has been brought in to cut out the opposition play and give it to our attackers but surprisingly it has been anderson doin this job magnificantally.

 

[reddwarf]

To be fair to Hargreaves he was voted man of the match in his 1st 3 appearances for United by fans on manutd.com

He's really struggled with injuries since he came to the club and has never really had a run of games. I think we're still to see the best of him.

As long as Hargreaves dont play along side with Carrick will do.
They are the same kind of player so will make out attack a bit lacking.
Scholes will be back and we will welcome him!
