Just me that would rather have United's start than ours?
When looking at the fixtures I was hoping to see we'd have a really difficult start then things get "easier" as it goes on.
As it is we play United, Liverpool, Everton, Arsenal, Tottenham and Swansea at home first, give's us a really difficult second half of the season compared with the rags, who face most of the top sides away first.
3 of our last 7 games are away at Arsenal, Liverpool and Everton, IF things are touch and go between ourselves, rags, and/or Chelsea at that point then it make's a difficult run in for us.
If the rags get through their difficult start unscathed it will give them huge momentum, knowing their closest competitors have all still to play each other before Christmas time.
There ye go, a glass half empty post...I would just have liked us to have faced some of our harder fixtures (on paper) early doors and get them out the way.
