13 unwanted facts about United under David Moyes
1. Defeat against Sunderland was the first time since 2001 that the Reds lost three games on the bounce, having gone into the game following reverses against Swansea in the FA Cup and Tottenham in the Premier League.
2. The Premier League champions have lost five times at Old Trafford this season.
3. West Brom were the first. Saido Berahino's late goal on September 28 not only stunned Old Trafford, it gave The Baggies their first win at the Theatre of Dreams since 1978.
4. Next were David Moyes' old side Everton, whose late winner secured the Toffees' first win at OT in 21 years. To rub salt in the wounds, it was one of Moyes' last signings while he was at Goodison Park who scored the late winner - Costa Rican defender Bryan Oviedo.
5. More records tumbled four days later with the visit of Newcastle United when Yoyan Cabaye's goal gave the Geordies their first win at OT since 1972.
6. A winning streak through the rest of December was brought to an abrupt end with the visit of Spurs on New Year's Day. They inflicted United's fourth home defeat of the season thanks to Christian Eriksen's goal.
7. When Swansea came to Old Trafford four days later for a third round FA Cup tie, the Welsh side had never won at United in ten attempts over 82 years. Wilfried Bony's late header again left the Reds faithful scratching their heads as the The Swans dumped United out of the cup.
8. An exit in the third round of the FA Cup had only happened once (against Leeds in 2010) during Fergie's 27 years in charge of the club.
9. Aside from the home defeats, other results at OT have hurt the reds, namely draws against Chelsea and Southampton, the latter joining a list of sides which have plundered late goals to turn the Theatre of Dreams into the Theatre of Nightmares.
10. The 33 goals United have scored in the Premier League this season is their lowest mid-term tally since the inception of the competition in 1992.
11. United only have one midfielder who scores or makes goals. Aside from strikers Wayne Rooney (18), Danny Welbeck and RVP when he was fit (both 9), only teenager Adnan Januzai (5) has made a contribution in terms of goals or assists in the Premier League - the same as Pablo Zabaleta at City.
12. Injuries have severely restricted RVP following his 35 goals last season. The eight occasions Rooney and RVP have both started games this season, United have won six and drawn two.
13. David Moyes has dropped 16 points in ten league games at home. Ferguson dropped 14 in his last 68.
But it might be worth remembering this fact...
Moyes' first 31 games as Man Utd boss: 18 wins, 6 draws, 7 losses.
Fergies' first 31 games: 12 wins, 10 draws, 9 losses.

I genuinely think if they miss out on Champions League qualification for next season, they look absolutely doomed. Which top players will want to go and play for Moyles at a team not in the Champions League? I'll tell you who, money grabbers.
They'll be in the same position we were under Hughes. Wanting to buy Champions League level players, without being able to offer Champions League football. That's when you end up paying £18m for Santa Cruz, £24m and £150k a week for Adebayor, because you have no alternative. The only motivation to go there will be money.
They will be competing against us, Chelsea, Arsenal, and whoever else, let's say Liverpool, for the same players. All of those 4 clubs will have money to spend, so if a player choses the shite over any of them, it will be for significantly more cash.
Add in the fact that Evra is almost certain to leave, Ferdinand looks shot and likely to retire, Vidic is out of contract and his agent says he has no interest in staying, Giggs is likely to retire, Van Persie has already handed in a transfer request in December, so likely do so again in the summer, Rooney wants to leave and only has 2 years left on his deal, so they'd be foolish not to take £20m for him in the summer.
Right now they need 5 £25m players to make them look like a European force. Today. If they lose all, or most of the players listed above, it means they're going to need 9 or 10 come the summer! They could be looking at a £200m squad redevelopment cost, with significantly lower revenue due to lack of CL football. And they'll have to pay way over the odds to get second tier players.
The difference between them this summer and us under Hughes, is that we basically had an unlimited budget. Bottomless pockets. While I think they've got money to spend, it's on nowhere near the same scale as us.
Higher spending, lower income, less success and increased competition in the PL could start a financial death spiral for them. The NYSE share price could tumble, sponsors could pull out / re-negotiate lower terms, their 70bn worldwide fanbase might shrink somewhat when they are stuck in midtable mediocrity with Davey Moyles at the helm and Jordan Rhodes up front.
This is probably the most important season in their recent history, and I for one just hope it carries on the way it's currently going!

If the covenants on the bonds are, as reported, redeemable if they fail to qualify for the CL two years out if three then it is, in actual fact, highly plausible.Henkeman said:

I think a lot of red twats are just waking up and smelling the coffee.....the song dies out as others decide not to join in and tempt fate further as we have come back at them so many times......reminds me of when City sang Wemberleeey and everyone went ssssh.
Will be great to sing it back to them with Billion in the Bank :)
