Are we going to finish above the rags this season?

lets not set ourselves up for a fall

no probably not (but who knows......:-)
 
It depends.

We have much more depth and talent in our squad. Silva, Toure, robinho, tevez, adebayor and given are better than every united player (arguably) other than Rooney. However, united seem to have a unity, and have a reasonable work rate. We Ned our stars to perform to the best of their ability throughout the whole season. If they do.. Then yes, we will finish above united.

I think the world cup just gone shows that Tevez>Wooney
 
The derby games showed that there wasn't much between us last season as far as ability went but they were ahead of us in having that extra professionalism and ability to win close games.
Hopefully the players we've brought in will help us bring that to our side.
I still think they'll finish above us as we haven't got that fear factor that makes opposing players shit themselves when we play them, that'll come in time though :)
 
Personally I don't think our defence is good enough to win the league and to finish above united you need to win the league. The clocks ticking though and it wont be too long.
 
Frankly, no.

As said before you need a good defence and that is lacking. To finish above United that means you are winning the league, I don't think the defence is watertight enough to get a scrappy 1-0 when everyone else is playing shit against OK opposition. You can talk endlessly about squad comparisons and their time is over if you want but at the end of the day their team doesn't have to be built of individuals and that is the major difference because they will over achieve and surprise you again.
