problem is United are actually back to playing like the team that won the league last season - useless build-up play but deadly incisiveness in the final third. their movement and passing against Fulham was top class, although it didn't hurt that they had Senderos running in circles like a dog chasing its tail.
speaking of which: i saw Senderos' matador defense and Chamakh heading crosses backward this weekend and just sat in horror thinking that these were key assets once upon a time. the less said about Almunia's goal, the better.
