Fergusons Post Match Comments

Recommended Posts

Just seen the goals on Sky, it did look like Morgan climbed all over their player for his goal. Didn't see a replay but it was a huge leap if he didn't.

lol

Peterborough's display was a ****ing embarrassment, mistakes galore and their philosophy was almost scary how shite it was.

These are the games we drew or lost season - whilst the first half display wasn't brilliant, I was very pleased with our patience and ability to up the pace in the second half, on a very hot and humid day. The result never really in doubt once Morgan scored. If Peterborough adopt this approach all season they could be relegation fodder. Dominance is surely about being better than your opponents and imposing your authority on the game, not just keeping the ball in your own third of the field for 45 minutes. Perhaps they expected us to press more and catch on the break?

Solid start, some good performances, three clean sheets in a week and 7 goals scored. Good foundations for a promising season.

Anyone who says that Peterborough were a decent side weren't watching the same game as me.

They came for the draw and it was always going to be about whether we could break them down or not. I didn't think they looked a threat at all until they brought on Emile Sinclair ( why he wasn't starting God only knows). Poor side and Fergusons comments just sound like sour grapes.

And in Tomlin, is there a fatter striker in the division?

lol

He's miffed because his brillinat tactical plan had no alternative if we scored. His plan frustrated us 1st half but, once the goal went their options were limited. They had to tray and move the ball forward more and this opened the game up for us. But my word, he is a tosser isn't he?

He even got the trademark "Fergie time" at the end of the game. 4 minutes for what exactly?

He really doesn't have any grounds to moan...lol

3 minutes of it would have been or substitutions - they allow 30 seconds per sub and there were 6 of them in the 2nd half. So only 1 minute more to find after that.

He is an idiot.

Their plan worked for the first half and it took us longer than I would have liked to figure it out, but apart from that P'boro were awful and we controlled the game.

Thought Sinclair looked handy, I only hope he was carrying a knock or something and that's why he didn't start, because at the rate he was getting chances he could have knocked at least one in over 90 mins. Tactical rubbish from Fergie

Passing it along your back four for long periods and then losing it when attempting a forward pass is not dominating a game of football.

Maybe if Peterborough hadn't bored everyone so much including the ref then maybe he would of given a free kick instead the ref was forced to allow the goal just to keep himself awake

What? After 20 mins we were in control midweek. Sunderland we were better first half than second, and today we let them pass it around their own half. We weren't good, but we weren't poor at any point today. We looked comfortable throughout.

Babylon, that is so true.

Our only real problem in the first half on Saturday was with the final delivery around their box. In the first 20 minutes we robbed three of their defenders but the ball didn't break kindly. We were patient and there was no problem, Becks put a header just past the post, Marshall could have done more with a good opportunity inside their area and they did nothing except simple passes around their defense and some long balls which went out for goal kicks.

As the manager said, it was a very professional performance and in the context of this being our first match I am more than happy and looking forward to the inevitable improvements as they happen.

Agree with all this.

And you're right about the final delivery. That could be the Achilles heel this season.

We shall see...

Did see this on BBC Sport. Made me laugh, although he could be right for all I know think I dropped off on 30 minutes thanks to their free flowing attacking football.
