As many predicted, frustrating score draw. It's not a terrible result, like. They're not that bad and weren't today, imo. So annoying that we outclassed them so much and yet didn't get any luck, though. One of their goals was offside, blatantly, yet counted. We deserved a win. Registered a sh*t load of efforts again and played some bloody boss football. Bringing Distin on meant we were much calmer at the back and didn't have as many heart in the mouth moments.

Thank God, oh thank Jesus Christ that Gibson is back for the derby ffs. Starting line up should be the same with Gibbo coming in for Neville and Distin for Heitinga. I'd argue we've been the most entertaining team to watch this year. If we'd had a settled backline we wouldn't have been and we'd have topped the league last week let alone this week, tbf.

Kevin needs to step it up. Not good enough today, but he's still learning an getting his fitness up to speed. Plenty more to come from him yet.

Good sub at halftime, though

No they didn't for godsake. We would have been 2-1 up against Newcastle if both goals had been given and no one knows how the game would play out after that. Eventually we got 2-1 up and still threw it our way ourselves anyway.

It was a combination of poor reffing, poor defending and great goalkeeping that stopped us winning today.

If the refs are going to give other sides a 2 goal advantage then it is going to cost us points.

 

[Royal]

sign al-habsi ffs

 

[Gwladys St. Glory]

We need the Irish Paul Scholes back in there ASAP.

Oh dear...hah

 

[JamesBT]

I'm just greatful we didn't lose. So crap in that first half, never seen us look so fragile in defence

 

[chicoazul]

They battered us first half, we battered em 2nd half, draw is a fair result.

Defo. Wigan weren't no mugs and will pick up decent points at their own gaff if they can play like that. No shame in a point today as lots of teams would have got beat.

First half they just passed through our midfield and targeted Heitinga's lack of pace. Moyes done some good switches at half time with Distin on and Fellaini back into the middle and it swung the game in our favour. Relieved to get the late penalty and although we obviously wanted the three points it was a fair result.

It was a bit uncomfortable reading some of the stuff on here, we're not going to win every away game three nil lids. Come on.

Played ****, got point, still had around 20 shots on goal with a good percentage on target.

All in all you have to look at the positives, any other day we would have won that game while not being at our best.

 

[Wat Tyler]

Osman was terrible second half, should of put Victor on earlier.

If you want to be a top four team you have to win these games, it's as simple as that.

 

[davor]

If Jelavic gets kicked while performing a volley in a clean situation...its a straight red card and a penalty

we deserved more

If you want to be a top four team you have to win these games, it's as simple as that.

Wigan beat both Man Utd at home and Arsenal away last year.

 

[when i score we riot]

phew. Ultimately not happy with the performance here, but we was robbed. At least 3 penalties should've been given us, Baines hat-trick would've been it.

 

[Joey66]

PN should have been subbed at half time like JH & we may have won that easily such a poor performance by PN!
