A couple of reaction pieces from Tom Ince after Saturday's game with Manchester United.

I think he is dead right when he says that after the penalty Utd took over and I also think Rooney was given much too much space to work in. While I do not profess to know everything about football strategy, I just wonder what would have happened had we started Bolassie and ran at their defense for the first 20/25 minutes. I had a hunch that Utd's problems were mainly in defense and I would have liked us to have tested them. When I discussed this possibility with those who have a much better idea of tactics than I do, they said we would have been at least three down by half time. What do you think?
