No need for doom and gloom
1. Mancini is right we need more players, this defeat may actually strengthen his position with Cook and Marwood to invest more money before the season begins.

2. Our Midfield all had an off day, I haven't seen the stats but can never remember a game when De Jong gave the ball away so much
This happens very rarely and we know that these players have previously been able to dominate in the centre.
3. United think they are still number 1 - may believe that no further investment is required.
4. Our players get a timely reminder that we still have a long way to go to reach the top
5. Rooney comments about "footballing lesson" will be remembered by the team and should be fuel to stoke the fire further
6. Even thought it was versus the rags, this game never really mattered
7. Even though we played terrible we were still able to score 2 goals and be in the game until the last minute.
8. Mancini still believes we can be champions "Why not"
9. We looked dangerous at set pieces.
10. It was highlighted that Balotelli and Dzeko together are not the greatest of partnership and that this potentially an or equation.
11. We still have Tevez and Aguero who can play up top and will be awesome this season.
12. Gary Neville is still a nob
13. Kolarov looked great at left back.
14. Lescott looks to have found his form that brought him through strongly at the end of the season.
15. It was clear that our fitness levels were not at the same stage as United - we played at 70% and United closer to 90% - we will improve
16. The majority of our players managed to get more game time under there belts
17. Potentially we have the best squad in the league and have a realistic chance of challenging for the league.
18. We will be playing Champions League this season
19 . We got through the match with no injuries
20. Aguero will make his debut against Swansea at home where we will be fired up with something to prove.

21. Evra is a nob.
22. Christ, we need to learn how to dive on the edge of the area to get free kicks!
23 - Dzeko showing fight and potential to cause damage when given the opportunity - Supply and demand is the key to make him prolific
24 - David De Gea made mistakes and looks like he may take time to settle
