[Sir peace frog]

My mate compared United's unbeaten run to that of City's, completely ignoring the fact that we generally control every game whereas they have been stumbling from one result to the other

You get three points playing well and winning and three points playing badly and winning. But the team playing badly can always improve. Except them of course as they demonstrated this afternoon.
I won't watch them other than in derbies but the highlights on BBC News Channel showed a couple of chances that the keeper would have had no hope of getting to had they been on target. - They've been scraping the points by virtue of having a decent attack and opposing strikers turning to jelly in front of goal. It's a Phil O'sophie or something.
But they'll win at QPR, and at the mighty Cambridge in the cup and I think their next game is Leicester at home where they'll be out for revenge after losing at the Crisp Bowl. Leicester will dominate but the rags will scrape it, possibly with a dodgy decision or two, and they'll all be giddy as kippers once again.
We really need more consistent performances from the others looking for third or fourth, but Arse fall apart under pressure (particularly away from home), Dipperpool look lost much of the time but might get their arses in gear when Sturridge and Sterling are back, and Spuds and Saints blow hot and cold like a badly adjusted heating system.
Fourth will be funny but they'll be highly seeded in the qualifier, fifth (and possibly sixth and seventh) would be hilarious as they won't want the Europa, but they'll add to their UEFA coefficient and will make a fortune from Asian TV rights. Any lower and it's toasted turtle for tea.

You do but the team playing badly, especially one that has been playing badly for a while, is unlikely to carry on winning if they don't improve. Just like United did today

If City play like they did yesterday we will win a lot more than we lose

When Pelligrini came in it took him a while to get the style of play right and we could all see some players having difficulty but we could see what the team was trying to do. Can anyone honestly say they can see what United are trying to do other than lob it up to Fellani and play for free kicks in dangerous areas? Philosophy, what a load of shit - he's a fraud!

their style of play is quite obvious to the trained eye,not having a go btw ,they play the iidhut( formed in Holland) style ,pass to nobody in particular have no style of play and if that's not working they have the tactical guru who usually knocks it up to bogbrush who elbows his way towards goal,the £200m forward line then try to con the . ref very effective in sunday league

I thought UEFA were changing their coefficient system? That said, the rags could have a sustained run that matches Tranmere Rovers entire league history, yet the rags would still be given a top seed position.

Really strong rumours doing the rounds on Twitter, that Falcao stormed out of old Trafford before kick off. Told his agent to find him a new club, different press guys saying he wasn't sat with all the other players in the box. If true it gets Feckin better haha!

Edit! Papers now picking up on it.
