Dissapointed but proud.
Well done to the fans and Brooking for the Best tribute.
As for the game...first half we were excellent and Noble was running the show. Carroll making some impressive saves too. Second half they controlled everything and it could have been 1-4 IMHO. However, without Rooney United are nothing and it would have been closer. Can't ask anymore of the team though, and this was certainly a game we could afford to lose. Birmingham next week is far more important.
COME ON YOU IRONSSS!!!
Carroll-7 Some superb saves but at fault for O'Shea goal
Konchesky-6 Solid enough but overran at times
Gabbidon-6 Not his best game for me, couldn't handle Rooney or Van Horsetelrooy but made some crucial clearances
Ferdinand-8 Very good. Better than Rio on the night i reckon
Repka-9 MOTM Brilliant. Won every tackle and knocked Park all over the...well park
Etherington-8 Much much better. Full of running and deserved assist
Noble-8 Ran the first half, and though faded in the second still excellent.
Mullins-7 Lots of good interceptions
Benayoun-7 As dangerous as ever
Sheringham-6 Nice touches early on but tired worryingly
Harewood-7 Good work rate and superb first half. Too many mistakes in the second..
SUBS
Zamora-6 Looked bright and good movement
Dailly-5 Came on and did f*** all right
Newton-5 Not enough time
