United full-time report and player ratings – Great effort, but again, no end product
Watching Manchester United celebrate the title with our boys staring at their celebrations is a scene which made sick, sick enough to be very short in my full time report. The lads did incredibly well out there, but you could see that we still lack that something in front of goal which somehow needs to be fixed next season. Unfortunately, Robin as a lone striker simply doesn’t work as he doesn’t possess the strength and the aerial capabilities to do it whilst Adebayor, who should be good enough to do it seems to be on his way out.
Denilson was superb, man of the match, just a shame he plays a game like this once every two months.
Player Ratings
Fabianski: 6 – Almost nothing to do, did well to prevent a goal in the second half.
Gibbs: 7 – Considering his age, this kid has done much, much better than many expected in this last month or so.
Sagna: 6 – OK game, and again, needs to improve his crosses.
Toure and Song: 7,5 – Very, very solid. Granted, not a lot was thrown at them but they did well, especially Alex who read United’s game to perfection. Alex may have easily sent a signal to start ahead of Djourou for next season in this role.
Fabregas: 6 – Back to his beloved deep role but still failed to produce magic.
Nasri: 6 – Very little involved and a couple of balls given away cheaply.
Denilson: 7,5 – He still drives me crazy when he loses the ball and stays put rather than track back but apart from that, he was simply amazing today.
Diaby: 5 – Not sure what his position was, but another disappointing game from the tall boy.
Van Persie: 5 – Nothing special from the Dutchman. Missed a glorious opportunity inside the first fifteen minutes and failed to be dangerous from set pieces.
Arshavin: 6,5 – Saw plenty of the ball and did exceptionally well especially to set-up Robin in the previously-mentioned opportunity.
(Subs)
Bendtner/Eboue/Walcott: No Vote – Came on very late to judge, Nick should have replaced Robin way before that.
