If Duffy had been playing in the past month ahead of Heitinga there's not a chance we'd of conceded so many goals.

I don't think Old Trafford is the place for Duffy to get the start. But Heitinga needs to be put out to pasture for the rest of the season.
The second goal, Neville holds most of the blame. But if you're going to play that high of a line, you need pressure on the ball. Gibson was 1 v 3 there, did what he could, the other midfielder was nowhere to be found and at that point, one of the centerbacks needed to step up.

Aye. Heitinga is purified manure but Neville's failure was really bad, he had a clear sight of the line he was supposed to hold and he is solely responsible for the goal. Heitinga was a bit meh with his last ditch effort too but he was not at fault but even then he somehow failed to look like he was giving his all. Prolly just my angst towards him at the moment.

Pretty much agree with this, Heitinga has been at fault for 4 or 5 goals in the last 3 games.
I highly doubt Duffy would be that bad and even if he was at least he would be learning and improving to stop the mistakes in the future.

Will come? Already has. I agree totally with the second part.
Should have been done before. And besides, sometimes a baptism of fire, being thrown in at the deep end can do wonders for a players confidence and self belief.
This may or may not be true, but on current form would it be worse to have JH in there ballsing things up and costing us pts, or a young player who might actually learn from it and improve for the future??
He's had a decent run in the Championship, I'm sure one bad performance against the champions elect wouldn't have ruined him, and if would then he's not good enough anyway.
Exactly. And Rafael has come back from that, and Fergie has played him and let him learn and gain experience from it. And he has a lot more on the line to worry about than Moyes does...
Yep. And who's fault is that again???
Those would all be good ideas over the course of the season, but certainly not in one game, especially away at Utd. But they should all be getting bits and pieces here and there to gain experience. Moyes is being terribly short sighted not building up the young players that we have around the squad, and it is already causing us problems.
Idea that duffy should've started yesterday is bizarre. Very unfortunate that Distin got injured before the game, but putting in Duffy would've been crazy.
The real shame is that we didn't buy anyone in January to strengthen the team.

moyes has no balls when it comes to picking the team. obviously you shouldnt throw players like duffy straight in at OT but he should already have been given a chance seeing as its so obvious that heitinga is useless
When everyone else is injured and we need cover for Tim Howard.
It's disgraceful that Duffy is yet to start a game this season, tbh.
I don't think it was any more crazy than starting with JH who has been stinking the place out any time he's had a look in (except Bolton).
Agree with the 2nd point 100%

Think some will get a shock when and if Duffy has to be included in any sort of run.
We jump on youngsters inclusion as fans at this club with nothing really to suggest there good enough or better than the players we have playing.
If moyes is missing a trick with Duffy that everyone else can see, why is a defensively poor Ireland side not getting him involved?
Don't wanna sound like I'm putting Duffy down because he's shown promise and there's a chance he could become a useful CB but its a chance.. That's all!! He's slow, and also not a ball player, he has weeknesses and of course strenghts.
Our lack of signing what's actually needed pushes us fans to call on the youngsters to replace under performing first-teamer's regardless of whether there actually good enough. If we'd brought lescott back in jan (which is the quality we so need) no one would be mentioning Duffy.

Yes yes yes so so -but if Duffy had been used this season in games when we were winning easily as an half time sub etc or tried in lesser games that would not have been the case at old Trafford on Sunday!
Just throw JH in who can clearly not run or turn! he has been resonsible for our last SIX conceded goals FFS!
