Are u kidding me?? Of course it's over....

I was devastated.

The lineup was flawed. The hunger and determination was absent. The sense of urgency was nowhere to be seen.

In a game which we must win, Rafa fielded a "second" choice team. Although Alonso was suspended for the game and Gerard ruled out, does it warrant a certain Lucas Leiva from playing especially since he had been committing cardinal sins in the last few games and have not proven to be half a decent brazilian footballer? Basically, he is rubbish/crap/sub-standard/ineffective/can't dribble/can't pass/can't shoot/can't tackle......Can someone pls explain to me why Benitez is still fielding him and yet decide to sell away Robbie Keane even after he scored a couple of great goals?? Granted they play at different positions but most people must agree with me that Lucas should be sold to Everton or Plymouth or some other lesser teams a long time ago. I am very sure even the youngster Plesis is a lot better than Lucas. At least Plesis can tackle and resembles Sissoko in his better days.................Enough of Lucas. The mention of his name makes my blood boil.

Why did Benitez start with Dossena when Aurelio was available? Was he thinking of Estadio Santiago Bernabeu?? I certainly hope not. The priority has to be in the League unless he had secretly conceded that the title challenge was over given the 8 point lead Man-Ure had over us. Even then, Dossena should not have played. He should have been shot/slaughtered and shipped to Africa to feed the lions. He is another rubbish player. Benitez bought him and Philip Degen at the same time and hailed them to be the club's answer for quality left/right backs. Degen started one game for the first team and played horribly. He has spent more time in the treatment room than on the pitch. Dossena? I rest my case.

Why did the subsitutions come so late? We only started playing football in the last 10minutes. Where is the hunger and determination? We didn't seem like we were interested to win. There were too many stray passes and long balls that ended in Iceland. Overall, it was a pain to watch the game.

As much as it saddens me to say this, we have "given" Man United the title. Yes, literally. Sometimes I feel Benitez should just talk less and concentrate more on his team selection. I am losing patience with him. What is this rubbish about him turning down the 5th contract offer on the eve of the crucial game against Man City? How is that ever going to help a team that is fighting for the title? There is a circus going on behind the scenes. If this season turns out to be trophy-less again, the Yanks and the boardroom will have to shoulder a major part of the blame.

I am devastated, angry, disappointed, disillusioned.........period.
