Got to love Danny Higginbottom his analysis of our team is that Adam lallana has been playing as a false 9 and wijnaldum is a holding midfielder with Hendo. Got to laugh really.

Some of these "analysts" should find another job as they have no clue about the game, period. Lallana as a false 9? Good grief!

How's he even got a job.

To be fair Jezza are you any better? If I remember correctly you said Swansea were going to "batter us"

Big difference between a prediction and an analysis, sandman.

Swansea did batter us first half.

Pretty sure I never said Swansea will batter us I've said I think United will so perhaps you're confused.

They did not 'batter us' at all. We had more shot on goal in the first half then they did. They had 5 shots on goal in that first half, 2 of which were off side (including their goal) .

Battered us? Who won?

We wasted them second half, but in the first half they clearly outplayed us and had three major goal chances.
Even a fan has to admit it when we got outplayed.

We got outplayed because we actually did not play to our ability. We allowed them to dictate the play and we were second best to them in every department. We actually stated playing in the second half and there you can see that we were more than superior to them. Had we played a full game like the second half, it would have been over way before the final whistle.

We weren't talking about what might have happened in the first half- that is a different debate.

If gerrard hadnt slipped we might have won the league in 2014.
If john barnes had played for safety into the corner in the 90th minute of the final game in may 1989 we would have definitely won the league.
What matters in terms of improving is what we actually did, and in the first half we got outplayed by swansea.
If we want to discuss what we might have done last week that's fine- but that will never alter what we actually did do- which was that we got outplayed for nigh on 40 mins.

Recognising our mistakes is not a weakness, it is key to putting things right next time. Not rocket science.
Its just facts, as rafa himself might have said.

At the end of the day we weren't great in the first half against Swansea, but we weren't out of the game and we played our way back into it, we could have won by four or five in the second half.

The admission of error is the first step in putting things right, which is what we did in the wind half.
