The reporting of last night's heroic defeat in the face of the worst injury crisis a side has ever faced is hilarious.

Had that been us however.......

Exactly... I note that United were beaten by the current Danish Champions. Now if that had been City it would of read Danish MINNOWS beat most expensive team EVER!!!
 
They needn't worry - a dubious last-minute penalty at Shrewsbury to win 1-0 and everything in their garden will be rosy again, according to the media.
 
Who are these 13 players out injured, FFS they aren't counting players who have played a couple of games are they? It would be like us saying that Garcia was injured. Man up Turtle and get a grip. That said I can't wait till we are (hopefully) stuffing them in the league and we can sing 'Turtle was right, you're f*****g sh**e, Turtle was right, you're f*****g sh**e.

The youngsters from our academy are the biggest worry. We should be producing the best youth products in the world but it is a conveyer belt of mediocrity. So average.

No details as to how and why they should be producing the best youth players in the world? Or is it ENTITLEMENT writ large? Perhaps they've forgotten about Barca and Real?
 
Its an oldie but so much is still applicable... the united way...

Choose United. Choose 7 failed attempts at the European Cup. Choose to be knocked out of Europe 5 times in 5 seasons. Choose to waste countless millions. Choose to support a team from a city you have never been to. Choose whining. Choose to wear shit grey shirts and then blame them when Southampton stuff you. Choose to release Cantona because he’s the only one who realises how shit Cole is. Choose cheating. Choose not to condemn your player when he’s been convicted of assault. Choose to spend your career in the reserves because the money’s good. Choose a psychopathic Irishman as your captain and call him a gifted visionary. Choose to waste 7 million on Cole. Choose the arrogance to field your reserve team then complain about the consequences. Choose a racist Albino with pink eyes and a red nose as your goalkeeper. Choose not to be liked by anyone and pretend not to care. Choose your own referee and linesmen-except in Europe. Choose a Norwegian paperboy as your top goalscorer. Choose your club before your country. Choose to have the biggest most expensive squad in British football then complain about injuries. Choose Wales before England. Choose Paul Parker. Choose to be arse-licked by the media and accuse them of being Anti-United. Choose to forget 1969-1993 ever existed. Choose to change the team you support every season. Choose to shield your players from TV interviews until they can read and write. Choose a sour-faced scot as your manager. Choose to change your kit 6 times a season. Choose to be snubbed by every decent player around the world then pretend you didn’t want them anyway. Choose self-deception and delusions of Grandeur. Choose your best player ever an incoherent, wife-beating, alcoholic Irishman. Choose to poach your ‘impressive youth policy’ from other clubs. Choose to sign a world-class centre forward beginning with SH and pretend not to care when you get Sheringham instead of Shearer. Choose to go for the triple and end up with F*** All. Choose embarrassment. CHOOSE MAN. UNITED!

I think:
De Gea, Johnstone (3rd GK), Darmian, Beaker, Rojo, Shaw,Valencia, Varela (ha), Schweinsteiger, Young, Januzaj, Shrek.

That does leave the defence a bit of a mess, but other than that Young and Shrek are the only two likely to play.
 
A clear theme emerges from all the Utd fan sites on YouTube. No matter how raving or cool headed the fans are, they all resort, at one time or another, to repeating in various states of incredulity, the same thing over and over (and with some of them it is virtually the only thing they say).....

"We're Manchester United! We're Manchester United! We're Manchester United!"

Ironically, last night's shambles somehow serves only to glorify United by comparison. Henry Winter is going on an on about how a "Great club" with a "great tradition", an "institution" with a "glorious history" is being betrayed by LvG and his crew, in front of greats like Charlton and Giggs.

Their past achievements have somehow been magnified into an earthly paradise of non-stop heroism, genius and all-round lovable, untarnished perfection. A world that never was.

Hmm Darmian RB, Shaw & Rojo both LB. Varela young RB. None of the rest are defenders. We've had it much worse at the back concerning injuries to key players.... not that you'd know tho, we only hear how terrible they have it. Poor souls.

In front of Giggs? He's part of the proble. Last time I looked he was sat to the left of TT.

I quite enjoy this attitude from them though as it makes the pain of their decline and fall even more acute for them as they gaze proudly back at their glorious past and their eyes fill with the tears of nostalgia, and they look at what they have become.
