Lets all laugh at Man Utd.

Volante

Yes. One match changes very little, United had won what, six in a row before that?

Biggus

Who else is there?
Liverpool are a one man team and it's only a matter of time before he implodes.

Irishgunner

Yes, they'll be top 4.

Burnwinter

Everton obviously. Think United's grip on it is very tenuous.

Claudius

it's hard to predict. i suspect there will be two races - one for the title with the financially doped teams + Arsenal; and another for 4th with United, Spurs and the Merseyside clubs. people should realise that despite being miserable, United probably need only 3 wins in a row to get into 4th. they're right there

Burnwinter

They're there, but they suck and they continue to suck. Their XI just isn't better than Everton's taking balance into account, and most importantly they don't have confidence in their manager. They're a gifted rabble.

If they get even three points further from top I think some of those old pricks might start sandbagging to get Moyes sacked.

I'm really enjoying their demise. Previously high horse type Man Utd fans are flailing now, screaming injustice over their tenuous penalty claims yesterday.

Daz

Aw bless 'em

I am with qs; one mate of mine especially has been a proper pest since we last challenged. Gloating I can deal with, but he figured out that pitying us wound me up a lot more and he has been at it for years. Nice that the shoe is on the other foot now! God knows how long it will last though. 🙁

Thing about them, they ain't necessarily worse than last season. In fact, they probably played much better in the champions league than last season.

It is just when Ferguson's team is chasing back a goal, they always have the lucky break or the intensity to score that crucial goal. We have always wondered why is United always so jammy even when they are playing like shit, now with a manager who isn't all that with man management, it is showing.

Everton and Liverpool will definitely finish ahead of them, not sure about Spurs under Sherwood yet.

And Howard Webb has deserted them 🙂
He'd have awarded a couple of penalties yesterday if Fergie'd been in charge.

The glorification of Ferguson is both annoying and off the mark in my opinion. He wouldn't have done much better this season than Moyes has with this squad. It's entirely possible that his staff would have sorted out the transfer business however instead of leaving him two players short in midfield.

Biggus

Yep, the crafty old bugger knew to get out when the ship was sinking.
Y'see when teams win all the time they develop an aura, their opponents don't believe they'll get anything (like a penalty at OT) and they themselves believe they will, so the whole thing becomes self-fulfilling.
Now of course they've lost that aura and that self belief and every opponent smells blood.
It's a real shame we couldn't have got at least a point there, never mind we have another chance.

Timbob

Think Utd would definitely have more points this season under Fergie. He knew the players and knew what his best team was for any given game. Moyes still doesnt know how he wants to set up and who can do what and when.

Biggus

Early days yet but when you see what Martinez has achieved with Everton so far it looks like they got the better of it. 😆

Rex

Ferguson would certainly have this same Man U squad near the top IMO. It is his squad, and he knows the players' strengths and weaknesses.

Biggus

Look, stepping into Fergusons shoes was always going to be a massive task even for a top world class tactician and man manager.
But for someone who's never won anything?

And then let go of most first team coaches......😆

You're letting bitterness cloud your judgement. Fergie would definitely have them at the very least still in the top 4.

Think I am one of the biggest Fergie hater here and I don't rate him as highly as some do because I am of the opinion Manure spends alot every season to get the success he had, but I think this season really put alot of things into perspective about how good he is.
