United thread 2013/14

Speaking of Ferguson, it will be interesting to know what he's thinking at the moment.

He'll be thinking "That's what you get when you give the manager a transfer budget of £30m."

rvp no return date for injury:

Moyes told United's official website: "I don't know (when he will return). We've been trying to get him back for a few weeks.

"But he is not ready yet. It's his groin. It's a sore groin injury and nothing desperately serious."

Lovely jubbly last night! They've got a few easy games coming up though so I'd hang fire a bit, but they're there for the taking and they can easily drop more points again in those easy games

I'm not one for rushing in, but sometimes you've got to take a calculated risk. If you wait for the corpse to go cold it won't taste anywhere near as sweet. That time is now imo, as there's no way that team can overhaul Arsenal, Chelsea or us imo. They are in a three (or four) way fight for fourth at the very best.

Who would have thought after they won the Champions League in 2008, just after we'd got dicked 8-1 by 'Boro that we'd be talking in these terms, but we are. Their fans thought they could lord it over us for ever, mocking and sneering like fucking school kids.

They laughed at the thought of us winning a Trophy, derided us for daring to dream about winning the league, and sneered at the suggestion that we could become a major force in the game.

Never forget.

Like that quote. Growing up as the only blue in a football mad street full of kids, mostly rags, I won't be forgetting any time soon.

I've heard some blues on here say shit like 'Oh we should be more gracious than them'. Hmmm. Maybe in some instances. Personally I intend on taking revenge in a similar manner to the russians when they turned the tables on the nazis. The footballing equivalent of rape and murder and unbearable atrocities. It's almost fucking payback time and they're getting it in spades

The horror. The horror

Fucking well said, I'm full on giving them loads, text messages, Facebook, everything. they're getting it big time lets see how these cunts handle it. I'm not even getting the usual 'champions' or '20' reply these days, that's how much these cunts are hurting.

Fuck em.

Any team with a decent midfield can punish them.

I reckon even Newcastle will get something of them weekend

The question is have they left themselves too much to do.

The answer is yes, if you're talking about the league. If they were twelve points behind Arsenal and in second, then maybe, but to expect Arsenal, City and Chelsea to all capitulate is asking way too much.

My brother, yes the one who said pre derby in his opposition view piece for BM that it was United's best squad ever, is currently in mourning. He said last night "United are fucked" followed by a rant about how Moyes needed to be given money to bring his own players in.

If I had to pick a place for them to finish, i'd say a plucky 5th behind Us, Chelsea, Arsenal, and Liverpool.

Perhaps the title is beyond them, but we are 6 points above them. They could beat Newcastle, and we could lose to Southampton and we still have to go there.

Oh how the penny would finally drop if they found themselves behind THEIR BIGGEST RIVAL™ come May.

Needless to say, I'm chuffed at the current state of affairs.

Although Thursday night football would be a distraction from the prem, I would prefer them not to qualify for Europe at all so it totally fucks their coefficient points score, plus a real loss of revenue
