    Certainly no shame in losing against a much more experienced team and playing well at the same time.

    Lots of positives.

    Negative for me was our left side of defence. Cole in for Baines might help - I don't think Baines is good enough.
    Fair point on Baines but we go HAMMERED in the 1st half.
    Pearce has not got a clue on international football.
    Great player but enough said.

    I agree. It was quite an experimental team in some places but games like this are the opportunity to do that. Under the circumstances I thought they did ok.

    A lot of the grief he got when he was our manager was unfair in my opinion. We were absolutley shit when Keegan left and he was expected to sell players like SWP and by and large bring in free transfers or 1 million quid players. I thought he did well to keep us up and I doubt we would now be owned by the Sheikh if we had gone down around that time.

    Sounds like a robbery at WHL..

    3-1 to United totally against the run of play according to the updates..

    Its an exciting run in now, I think we now have the easier run in after a horrible run of fixtures from which we've taken a good amount of points.. but United have dropped silly points this year.. tbf we tend to raise our game for these tough periods, its the Blackburn at home games which could lose us the title..

    We're not playing that well but 3-1 away to one of the best teams in the league is a great result...

    The closer you are to us is good in a funny sort of way, as it leaves no room for complacency on our part. If you come to the Etihad and play like you did today i genuinely believe we will rip you apart again.

    It'd be quite a comeback...all credit to the Gunners for having a go.
    But if Milan snatch a single away goal on the break, it could be beyond reach.
