Man United 1 Sunderland 0
Roy Keanes return to Old Trafford was spoiled by a Louis Saha goal 19 minutes from time.
Sunderland packed the midfield with the intension of gaining a draw. The plan almost came to fruition with Gordon in top form again it looked as if Man U would fail to find the net.
Man U then won a corner and all of Sunderland`s hard work was undone. Gordon failed to clear Nani`s corner only for Saha to head home.

tbh honest we didnt create than many chances KEV, saha's aside, can u think of any bar the last 10 mins when sunderland went flat. i dunt say we deserved it, but we won sop i guess thats good :)

OK But you created a lot more chances than us, we only had two chances and both of them were off target. I think we were very resilient and had it not been for than corner and we might have come away with a point.

Trouble is people will not think a 1-0 defeat at Old TRafford as a good result but there will be loads of clubs leaving there during the season with a bigger defeat than that, Roy Keane will now know the season starts now after 3 defeats on the bounce. This is where he will start to earn his corn. Prawn Sarnie anyone?

I think we deserved a point Saha goal was lucky he didn't seem to know anything about it

Unfortunate you couldn't hold on for a draw think considering you were away from home you deserved it.

Yes I think we did deserve a draw. but even just getting beat 1 nil wasn't bad I thought we were in for a right spanking
ClaireH
Oh well another beating just like the last time we were in the prem but at least we have 4 points already
