1. Calm down dears, it’s only a draw!

First things first, WHY was half the stadium booing at the final whistle today?! Ok, we didn’t win, but then we didn’t lose. We drew! And let’s face it, we got robbed. We deserved a win, and played like a United team should, never giving up, always going for the win, no matter what. So why boo? You tell me, you fickle, fickle fans.

2. Don’t listen to the bullshit, United are on the rise

Again, yes, we did draw. But just as with the Benfica game midweek, we played some classic Manchester United football. There was fast paced attacking, a never say die attitude, fighting every decision, and giving us all minor heart attacks in the process. The only thing missing was the 3 points in both games: on Tuesday we blamed our defenders, today, we can rightly blame the linesman for a really soft penalty call. All in all, I’m not worried. If we keep attacking teams like this, the wins will start flooding through.

3. Is Tim Krul the new Brad Friedel?!

I thought we’d got over the Brad Friedel curse when we knocked 3 past him in August at OT. Too old, too bald, came the cries (well maybe not, but I thought it anyway!). Finally, no more fraught games watching United hit an American shaped brick wall every time we played whatever team he keeps goal for. Well folks, he’s got a successor. And sadly for us today, his name is Tim Krul. Seriously, all those saves were ridiculous. I couldn’t believe what I was watching!

4. Giggs and Carrick in CM works!

Forget all that rubbish about our central midfield being shit. It’s not. Cleverley and Anderson (and maybe Pogba if we hurry up and give him a proper deal) are the future, and once they get back from their injuries, we’ll see exactly that. In the meantime, we can definitely cope with a central mid pairing that basically won us the league last year, and got to the Champions League final. Stop moaning muppets and enjoy what we’ve got while we’ve got it!

5. The Return of the Forgotten Players

I can’t be the only one who did a double take when I saw 2 strange names on the teamsheet. Gibson? Macheda? Who? Anyway, the gaffer didn’t use either until he brought on our Kiko with 5 minutes to go, in a fit of desperation. And apart from missing an easy header and stoking the rage of Captain Vida, he actually showed a few touches that suggested he really does have the quality of a United player. I guess we’ll see!

Sooo, fellow Devils, what do you think. Agree? Did I miss anything? Am I an idiot? I’ve started a twitter today too, so talk to me on there if you use it: @allmyunited
