Mata seems to be actively avoiding situations where he might get the ball and be tackled. He's got to have the fewest touches on the pitch.

RVP with the least so far then Falcao.

Poor from Shaw

Cevno · Oct 5, 2014

Naive by Shaw.

He got the ball though it seemed.

Karloski · Oct 5, 2014

What a dumb challenge by Shaw. ********ing idiot.

Amdrag · Oct 5, 2014

Why....

Teso Dos Bichos · Oct 5, 2014

There's the Shaw I have been banging on about all game long. Zero composure. Always panicking.

Karloski · Oct 5, 2014

YESS...DDG

Amdrag · Oct 5, 2014

De Gea did something?!?!?!?!!!!

Cevno · Oct 5, 2014

De Gea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

johno · Oct 5, 2014

incredibly stupid. what the ********? he did get the ball and that's not a pen, but it is a stupid decision.

Gnome · Oct 5, 2014

Poor penalty.

Canon · Oct 5, 2014

So happy he saved it! I had a feeling he would!

Teso Dos Bichos · Oct 5, 2014

De Gea ********s my fantasy team.

nimma · Oct 5, 2014

Poor pen. DDG saves.

Ruud v.Nistelrooy 10 · Oct 5, 2014

shit

Teso Dos Bichos · Oct 5, 2014

LvG had better rip Shaw a new one over HT.

StrikerCW · Oct 5, 2014

de gea saving Shaw's 20 million pound waste of space

Ruud v.Nistelrooy 10 · Oct 5, 2014

Shaw escapes via DdG

Cevno · Oct 5, 2014

He got the ball but the way it lunged looks dodgy every time.

Still another major marginal decision goes against us this season.

Sofabloke · Oct 5, 2014

Beyond stupid from Shaw, poor pen Baines but credit DDG for waiting/watching to save.

Cevno · Oct 5, 2014

Need to do something about the front 3 as a Combo.

They aren't clicking. Behind them all's been good actually.

RVP again seems off though he is atleast running around more being Captain.

Falcao and RvP is a terrible combination of attributes.

To be fair falcao missed two potential sitters...he looks frustrated...van persie has been van persie but mata needs to be more involved than he has so far

RvP and Falcao cannot play together.

Agreed. Our front line is something I have posted about previously. Falcao is simply being starved of space and for a player with such great movement it limits what he can do. At prior clubs he has usually spearheaded the attack and either been flanked by two wide options and/or also had a player operating behind him. Now he has RvP taking up most of the space ahead of him in the box while also having Rooney/Mata bombing into the space behind him and the likes of Herrera, di Maria and our wide options doing likewise. To get the best out of him we need to unshackle him but we won't and everyone will suffer.
