Last night’s both group A matches ended in a 0-0 stalemate and Manchester United kept their top spot.
However, they will be disappointed after drawing with the weakest team in the group as they now have to face two of the toughest and qualification is by no means guaranteed.
Robin van Persie missed the decisive penalty that could have given David Moyes’s men all three points and a healthy lead over the chasers but it was not their night.
Sociedad’s goalie Claudio Bravo was in brilliant form last night and ensured that the Spanish side kept clean sheet on the night despite United’s ongoing pressure.
Things are not getting any better for Fellaini. He did have a decent game as far as his defensive side is concerned but did not help in attack and was also sent off.
Shinji Kagawa started the game and was arguably Manchester United’s best attacking player on the night, especially in the second half when he was playing at his natural No. 10 position.
Rooney and Chicharito had a quiet evening as they could not trouble Real Sociedad’s defense as much as it was expected.

Kagawa was the best he plays better in no 10
Kagawa is great talent and we feel proud he’s at old trafford,quite good but we deserved a win
I prefer that kagawa should be given a chance of playing in number 10 rol. He played awesome last night.

Shinji kagawa need to be given more and more chances in other to prevent his country wld cup at brazil next yr
Kagawa is great pls moyes give him a chance to performd more than this.
Kagawa brings creativity in the team.What a player;though he lacks confidence,he still plays better than some of the regular players who play much games.If Moyes gives him more chances,he is going to create headache for defenders.Sir Alex Ferguson trusted kagawa with the #10 role and that caused problems for Rooney last season.
Kagawa is one of the best..he proved it by winning bundesliga player of the year he needs to be given more chances playing as a (number 10)he could be vital to us trying to win the premier league he creates excellent we need to take more of the chances provided
Use 4-3-1-2
