my god barca are boring
glad united are losing - hopefully city knock them out the cup on sunday
Crimbo and New Years fixtures
Oops!
Finally United score! 
United won't have a hope against City if they show up in this state.
Ha! Useless defence there. 3-0.
Excellent.
Jones over Koscielny? Fuck off.
Man Utd have a game against us soon.
I bet we restore their confidence, a loss against us could curtail their season even further.
It's all bittersweet for me.
Fergie's reluctance to buy a central midfielder is baffling.
spurs are a decent shout for 2nd, the way united are travelling at the minute. too many injuries
Aye, Cabaye and Tiote just shit on them from a great height.

They are a sorry lot these days.
Their defence is hopeless, midfield non existant.
Still a danger as regards having quite a few players who can score but still, have to believe that we can beat them.
What on earth was Phil Jones thinking?
He's northern. He probably wasn't thinking.

Take those two over our midfield options?
Sorry Y va, I believed we would beat Blackburn, Fulham, Liverpool, Spurs and Wolves
Then again never thought we would beat Chelsea.
It depends on which Arsenal team turns up that day, fact remains that Fergie still loves beating us though, games with us are probably only overshadowed by the manc derby (nowadays) and Liverpool. So his players will be up for that game as if their lives depended on it

This season they have been better than Song and Arteta.
many of united's victories over us in recent years have come as a result of cockups at the back, which we have less of nowadays. combnie that with the fact they have no midfield and are poor away from home, and we can get 3 points off them for sure. just like we did in april.
Always liked Tiote but he's gone up a level this season.
Big test for Newcastle now without him and Ba.
I'm just saying they will be pumped up for that game, Fergie will tell them that they need to make a scalp soon to appease the fans and we're next up for them on the big games list. As I said before, depends on which Arsenal turn up and how much we want to win.
It's interesting that while the media seem to have latched on to "the emergence of Phil Jones as a potential world class central defender" narrative, United fans don't seem that convinced by him at CB. Poor positioning and weak in the air apparantly.
Rate Smalling ahead of Jones who is a promising defender but hasn't done anything to warrant both the media praise or his england chances.

Conversely, United fans are more forgiving of De Gea's cock ups this season.

United are favourites but they're usual game plan will not work against us. Mainly because we're worse at keeping possession, defend better and they've got worse defensively. It'll be a good game imo, hope we nick it.
Five dropped points feel even worse now.
United's summer transfers have been quite poor.
Didn't even need this result to make five points dropped feel worse.
Spurs only dropping two did that already.
Holy shit what a bounce
Jones' header gets better every time.
What on earth was he thinking?
