[Christian Slater]

Don't think it'll be the same performance we've seen in the previous two games. I think this will be that familiar laborious United that we've all come to love and respect.

2-0 Rooneth with both, one a pen.

 

[SALTIRE]

Rooney can't be far off the all time top scorer for Moo now no?

 

[JaseTheVillain]

We're gonna get a whooping here. 4-0.

Twenty away from being tied with Charlton. Needs nine to be our second highest scorer.

 

[johnnytodd]

fancy an upset here 2-1 Villa

 

[SALTIRE]

Twenty away from being tied with Charlton. Needs nine to be our second highest scorer.

So he'll finish his career as Man U's top scorer and Englands top scorer. Will he be as highly regarded in years to come as Charlton and some other England greats I wonder, or will he be seen as someone who had a great career, but never became the player he could have?

Only fools will deny him as a great player. Whether he's remembered fondly by United fans will be split.

 

[Stevencc]

We've had a lot of possession, 70% of it, but we've been pretty once dimensional with it so far. Relying on Young to find an accurate cross.

 

[Stevencc]

And the goal comes from a Blind cross

Herrera.

 

[sl1k]

Finally.

 

[Humongous Fungus]

Ug..

 

[Stevencc]

Fantastic strike from Rooney.

 

[Stevencc]

De Gea's legs disappeared.

 

[Super_horns]

Rare mistake from De Gea

 

[Stevencc]

I wonder if Van Gaal likes Herrera yet.

 

[Whitechapel]

Who bought Herrera? Whoever it was deserves credit as a top top manager.

 

[Mr. Scruff]

He was scouted under Fergie and was offered to Moyes who did his dithering act and passed on because he was too expensive. Van Gaal sanctioned the move but would have had little to do with it.

He's great. Does everything a cm should do whilst being technically very good. Kinda like Cabaye was for Newcastle. So glad we signed him

 

[Christian Slater]

Thought we were fortunate Hutton went off injured because despite a shaky start he was growing into that game and was starting to nullify Young.

Efficient performance with a bit of a scare at the end.

It was just United attempting to break Villa down all game, save a few breaks.

Despite this it was quite nervy when Villa got a goal back and started chucking the ball towards Benteke.
