回帖︰路達尋曰又埋怨防守差勁
大佬呀，你一早就知道防守係自己隊波最弱果環，尋日一開始就排出全守型(唔係穩守突擊，因全無突擊)，成隊護級球隊咁既踢法，好似輸 2:0 已經心滿意足咁。
之前已經講過，路達只係一個護級領隊，用佢極其量護級成功！
Roeder Rues Poor Defending
By Ian Willis
GLENN Roeder was once again left to rue some poor defending after seeing his side go down 2-0 at Old Trafford on Sunday.
Roeder sent out a 4-5-1 formation with Shola Ameobi operating as a lone striker and Nicky Butt added to the centre of midfield, and the plan was working until Ole Gunnar Solksjaer broke the deadlock four minutes before the break after a corner.
And two minutes after the restartmore poor defending saw the Norwegian striker divert the ball past Steve Harper after a shot from Nemanja Vidic.
Roeder told Newcastle World TV: "It was disappointing. It was disappointing to concede the goals either side of half time, that certainly didn't help.
"We were always going to have to come here and try and contain Manchester United.
"We couldn't come here and try and play 4-4-2, not the way they play.
"They have Rooney who drops off into midfield, and that would have left Scotty and Emre totally exposed.
"With the quality of player they have got, that would have been asking for even more trouble.
"That's why Nicky Butt played, and he did the job well because we had to match them up in midfield.
"The plan was to contain them, and try and create an opportunity from one or two counter-attacks.
"We restricted them to long range shots in the first half and Stevie Harper had to make a couple of good saves.
"But the manner of the goals is so frustrating.
"The first goal came from a corner that was given away needlessly, it was a silly corner and it should have been a ball that was cleared downfield.
"Had we done that and kept them out, we would have come in at half time at 0-0 and we'd have been delighted.
"Two minutes into the second half we commited suicide with a downward header that should have gone upwards, Vidic had the shot and Steve said he had it covered, but Solksjaer got the touch and that was 2-0.
"We weren't going to throw caution to the wind straight after half time, but we found ourselves two goals down very quickly through a really poor piece of defending.
"Once that happened we changed it and brought Oba on, but when you're two down at Old Trafford it is asking an awful lot for a comeback.
"I can't fault the commitment and effort from the players.
"It just wasn't good enough on the day.
