3-0 win today for Manchester United against Tottenham. The two starting forwards were Danny Welbeck and Wayne Rooney, each scored 1 goal. I had read Chicharito would start but came in late in the game. The only thing that worries me is the goalie; David De Gea, he seems to be the only obvious "weak" link(besides the midfield). Go from a veteran to a 20 year old goalie, damn. Everything good so far, but man, im a bit worried.

your thoughts on De Gea?


I for one LOVE De Gea....He is insanely athletic

I know alot of people are saying he is having trouble, but when you are 19, living in another country, and playing for one of the best teams in the world, I wont be perfect either...

I honestly see him being at Old Trafford for 10-15 years no joke
I lost to Seattle 4-1 as Man U in FIFA 11... my 2nd time playing though...

Thats a disgrace!

I finally got to watch the game from Monday, and here are my thoughts:

1. Anderson is looking a bit better to me...I still want Sneijder, but Anderson will do
2. Cleverley is a monster. he has been the most impressive player this year so far
3. Nice to see De Gea get a clean sheet, he earned it
4. Rooney is floating too much...he usually has one good shot at the beginning, then dissapears till around the 7-th minute or so..id like to see him move back towards midfield more and get more involved
5. Vidic and Ferdinand will be missed, but I really like Smalling alot!

good game! Welbeck scores the first goal again, then Van Persie has a PK blocked by De Gea, ... Young now makes it 2-0 with an impressive strike. Its really hasnt been all that close

damn this game is physical as hell, a lot of elbows being thrown, more so by Arsenal id say, in frustration. now Welbeck is taken out whats seems to be his hamstring, Chicharito in. min 37
