hes left it on purpose because he was a mile offside.
Have not seen it back,but i thought he left it on purpose expecting it to end in the net,hence leaving it so he didnt stop it or miss it,putting fellaini off in taping it in with fellaini thinking the same as what i said-sure it was not offside.
 
Having watched the extended highlights, Pienaar might not have been on top form, but he's not that far off and I think the stick he's a had is a tad harsh even if he did deserve some. There were still some quality little bits of play that he was heavily involved in.

Also, watching it back, some of the intricate passing around their third was just brilliant, up there with the best in the league and the frequency with which we produced it yesterday was boss. No injuries either and another week for Gibbo to recover. I can't wait to see Pienaar, Baines, Felli and Kev unleashed on the utter awfulness that is Sland at Goodison. Call me naive, but I've got a funny feeling we might not have to start from an OG behind against them next week, either.
 


The game itself was great we didn't do too badly, but I didn't like Moyes bringing Distin on and take Jelavic off, I can see he wanted to bring a fresh leg on to strengthen the defensive side of the game, Naismith coming on was alright, but Distin should have come on for Neville.

We had too many defensive player on at the same time, we are not sure who is doing what, if we are taking a striker off we should bring on another striker, we are really inviting them to attack and get back on equal term. I would blame Moyes for the points that was lost, hope he learn his lesson this time.
 
Their second highlights one of the problems with our defence we play too square. Firstly, Bainesey should have gone out to the winger quicker,to put pressure on the crosser. All our back five were in a straight line so the cross reached the back post and yes Coleman could have done better but the problem starts with the square defending. The second defender needed to be closer to the goal and then the third need to be closer which would have meant the cross was cleared. One of WBA goals was quite similar it beats Jags and the next defender is too far away. That said we are playing some cracking football and it is a delight to watch. Yes, Fellaini was furious at the end but so was Moysey because the bar has been raised and we have dropped some points that maybe we shouldn't.
 
Horrible isnt it mate? Just keeps nagging away at ya....Everyones got there reasons but i think that if Marralas had stayed on we would have kept our foot on the peddle till the end.

Just hope we don't rue these missed opportunities. Substitutes were all wrong yesterday and at the wrong times.
