Nice to be looking forward to MOTD for a change.
Tell me. Did they all hold hands at the end. Seems quite the thing to do .

Great result for LVG! Swansea at home is a real banana skin, they have a solid away record. Rooney back to his best and all forgiven. Unbeaten in the League so far this year!LVG will surely stay until the end of the season! Seems to have finally got the players to play the way he wants them to. And finally getting them listening. I'd say Giggs had a big say in today's performance. Had Giggs written all over it! It's amazing but when Giggs has his say, Utd play well and win. When they lose he says nothing. Can't fathom that one?

Look Utd should be, and have in the past against lesser lights won handy... Stopped the run of mot winning and a bitta space from the has-beens
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

I swear to God, 75,000 people pack OT and the only fans you can here are the handful of Swansea fans, the atmosphere at OT mos of the time is simply dreadful these days, Palace has a tremendous support base, far far smaller than United's but the atmosphere is always tremendous.

Rooney looks like he has gained back a yard of pace overnight and he looks the best he has all season, which wouldnt be hard, I think he will score in the second half and United nick this one from a well organised Swansea outfit, time will tell.

Apart from about 3 minutes in the first half I couldn't hear the Swansea fans at all today. One of the better atmospheres I've been at this season I thought

have in the past because United were one of the best if not the best team in the league. This current United team won't win handy against any team.

I'm a Liverpool Fan. It's a parody of what Utd (even Liverpool) fans write on here week in week out about their team!

yea, should have known you were taking the pi-- :) :)

I was there and thought the Swansea fans were quite loud for more than a few mins!

Rooney played well  rightly,  some finish. 

Ayew was dangerous all day and Leon Brittons got talent. Ashley Williams is some battler, didnt deserve to be on the losing side...would be an addition for Man U

Ashley Young was dangerous for most of the second half but is still a diving ****** who is hard to like!

United lucky to win in the end that header from Fabianski looked in

Rooney missed a couple of chances and refused to pass to a better placed Martial also. He was at fault for letting his man go in the build up for the Swansea goal but it looks like he is actually trying for the first time in about 12 months. He must have got word that the board are sticking by LVG. Well done board for once. Sacking managers only exonerates players like Rooney who are taking the piss. Cannot believe he is captain of Manchester United.

I think this is exactly what happened, and I think that's why Paul Scholes changed his tune as well.

Proper order too. A lot of the time these things become self fulfilling prophecies.

Maroon Manc

Another rubbish half of football and lucky enough to come away with the win, as soon as we attack we look wide open at the back. We're so disjointed at the moment.  I still think he's only a couple of bad results away from the sack which might not be too far away with games at Newcastle & Liverpool in our next 2 league games.

Rooney was average, it was a great finish from him but he had other chances which he never looked like scoring from; Mata again was a huge disappointment, so many time he slows the play up when we have a break on. He needs to get more pace into the team and quickly. I'd like to see Pereira given a chance ahead of Mata, he's impressed me recently when given a chance and can't do any worse than Mata.

I still think there's a chance of Mourinho getting the job, the appointment of Moyes and LVG to date will done anything to put the Glazers off someone with the record of Mourinho. CL football is important to future revenues and been out of it for 2 seasons in such a short period will affect the clubs branding and sponsors won't be happy. Woodward doesn't want to give the job to Giggs as he knows this result in him losing some of his power to Fergie; Its about time United appointed someone external with football knowledge to the board as Fergie has his own agenda and its not good for the club.

I was happy with LVG whilst we were progressing but considering the football is dire he certainly needs the team to do better than last season which isn't the case. If he was here for the long term then you can make a case for giving him time but the problem is that he's out the door in 18 months time.

Can't understand why Pereira hasn't been given more of a chance but then again I can't understand a lot of things that LVG has done.  I'd take Mourinho in a heartbeat.
