Another frustrating draw.

Not the result we were hoping for, not the start we need. These are the games we need to be winning. These are the results that led to us missing out on the title in previous campaigns. Two draws in two games and 2 points in total. This game was even more frustrating for me than the Reading game. We controlled the entire first half, all we lacked was that neat little finish which is so freaking important. Scholes scored his 96th League goal for United moving him ahead of Ruud to number 1 as Man United's top goal scorer in the Premier League. Benjani equalised from Taylor's cross in the 53rd minute. We showed signs of scoring more goals the entire game but just couldn't put the ball in the net. The last ten minutes saw Muntari getting sent off only to be followed by Ronaldo a few minutes later.

The Commentator mentioned that in our treble winning year we started off the season with two draws. In today's competitive League it wont be that easy, we need to have a great string of wins from now on to show intent. I'll post again tomorrow after I Hear SAF comments.

We are now going to be without Rooney and Ronaldo is facing a suspension. Like I said not the start we wanted.

Sundays game at City is going to be played for more than just pride now.
