Shimmy got 4 right. Well done
I hope Fergie has learnt his lesson from the FA Cup defeat. Blaming the pitch or the referee won't do. Sorry Fergie! We lost. Bottom line.
By pulling a Rafa, Fergie tried to "rotate" the team, playing only TWO first team players - Vidic & Ferdinand. We all know by now "rotation" is hardly fruitious. Ask Benitez, he'll tell you.
I'm really gutted United got ousted in penalties and Berbatov needs to show more desire. If anyone saw his penalty they would know. What a lazy twat! I hope he pulls his socks up and shows us why he's worth 30 mil. Enough said, Everton deserved their win. Determination did it for them.
