That Burley clip is not that accurate. Last season Man Utd had a style of play. For example, when they played City it would be the counter-attack. This season they bought Ronaldo and it's changed and that's why they have struggled.

I agree about Ronaldo but last season I thought we outplayed them at Old Trafford and should have won the game easily and they were lucky in the game at the Etihad with a couple of counter attacks. In fact I thought they rode their luck for most of last season and second was a false position. I just don't rate their so-called "world-class" players and this season they have been found out.
The pundits are still saying they have "world-class" players. Personally I think they need a total squad re-build and a new coaching team. The longer they delude themselves about the quality of their squad the better.

Apparently according to Sky Sports we are second above the dippers for now!!!

I distinctly remember Saturday after they beat the arse the headline were Liverpool go second.. no 'for now' included there funnily enough although it would've been a more suitable time to mention since we actually had a game in hand

The Daily Mail can’t make their mind up on who should get the job. Zidane, Rodgers and Poch all in pole position to get the nod. Hire all 3 of them maybe, they might make top four just yet.

It would be far cheaper to employ all three of them, than to waste another few hundred million on buying the next Slabhead, Fred, CR37.
There again!

they can have one match of rebound effect by drawing at Chelsea this weekend and then back to losing please.

Win at Chelsea, then give Carrick a 3 year contract.
Whats not to like about that?

I agree 2nd was a false position.
They gained around 13 pts through penalties being thrown like confetti in their direction.
Penalties that gained them the points.
As shit as Ole was, I still think the players there are spineless fuckers who have downed tools on the advice of Ron the giraffe and any manager of any worth should steer clear

Waiting for someone in the media to start calling out Sir Rashford's performances. He's been a total non-factor this season but of course he's sainted in the media for helping to feed the poor and needy (very worthwhile it has been too). But while he's been busy collecting honours and doctorates here there and everywhere his actual performances have gone down the pan.

nice sarnies, !

Don’t forget the countless soft penalties. Aston Villa being one.

Your right.. it is delusion that they think they have a squad of world class players. There’s not one player in their squad that would get into the City, Liverpool or Chelsea teams.

What about hangovers? He had plenty of them.

He was a protected species. More of a piss artist than Mcgrath, Whiteside, Moran and Anderson put together.
Then there was his shagging and that dodgy stuff about buying Sheff Utd with that Thai character who had Fergie on speed dial and to prove I rang him up at half time in a home match. Got done for drunken driving about to enter the M62 too pissed to stand. Even when banned he drove that dark green Jag round the Alty area.
A modern 'hero' for the ignorant masses.

He is co-writing a book in conjuction with that other waste of space the Grand Duchess of Hollywood called 'The Bench Vol 2'. Photos of both dressed up in their regalia with easy words for Rashford to understand and to fit in with his wild claim that he never read a book until he was 17.
