Ignorance is bliss. If the powers that be at Utd are being lulled into a false sense of security whilst the reality is a slow painful demise then sign me up!

Spot on. Let them delude themselves that they're just unlucky, the victims of poor refereeing or just need to play Carrick more. The reality is that they are in decline at a time when the clubs around them are all moving forward.

On Sunday West Ham United visit for United’s 13th league outing. “At least I want someone to come here and play better than us and beat us,” Mourinho said. “Then you can go home and say these guys were better than us. After the Arsenal match I go home and my feeling is that I have lost.”

Didn't we do that?

Even if a team did so, PEG wouldn't admit it anyway.

We didn't receive one ounce of credit from the eye-gouging twat after we played them off the pitch.

Deluded wanker!

I'm sorry but if you spend the outlay they have and are way off top 4 nevermind top spot then it's not going ok.

That is the crux of it. They've the most expensive squad and the highest wage bill of any club in the world and realistically they are the sixth best team in England. It's pitiful.

They worry about becoming Liverpool without realising that they already have become them, at their lowest point, in just over 3 years.

When they lose £22.5 million off their Adidas deal next Summer and see sponsors starting to drift way from them the penny will finally drop.

They're in decline and a fairly rapid one at that. Debt up by £50m+ in the last quarter. It's a perfect storm and I'm loving every minute of it, ha,ha!

Is it me or is there a rush of ex rag players coming out and defending Re-united being 9 pts off the top? The family man on Saturday was praising Mourinho to the hilt saying everything is OK. No doubt Gary chuckle will be doing the same tonight on Monday night football. I'm sorry but if you spend the outlay they have and are way off top 4 nevermind top spot then it's not going ok. Could you imagine the shit we'd be getting if it was Pep and us in the same position?? The press would run out of ink kicking us in the bollocks. Fuckin makes my blood boil the way those stnuc get their backsides unnecessarily covered all the time.

I wonder if family man's praise is just a bit of a 'politcal' stance - he has to be seen as publicly supportive (like he was to his brother....) so that when he fails to get another job (because no club 'matches his ambitions' ) he might have a chance if/when it all goes pear shaped for mourinho at the rags?

The Champions league with them in it now would be like having Angela Merkel as a Victoria's secret model.

Kinnel!! You are sick sir, very sick indeed.

As for our ridiculous neighbours I'll just repeat my comments after reading reports of our victory at the swamp: We should have lost. Simple as that. Lost.
Forget that we took them apart for 40 minutes, forget that we created more than them after the break, forget that Bravo's challenge on Shrek wasn't a penalty. We should have lost.
They have benefited from defensive fuck ups, lucky bounces and dodgy decisions for so long that they sit back and wait for them to happen. Stones and Bravo were their best players in the derby (certainly created more chances for them) yet the media said they should have won. Could we have had a pen? Did KDB hit the post? Did Silva curl one just wide with the keeper rooted to the line? All irrelevant: they MIGHT have had a penalty therefore they deserved to win.
The good news is that if the club actually believes this shit they won't address it. Meanwhile we're playing on Wednesday.
