They are so deluded now that Mourinho has some of their fans believing they cannot compete with ‘oil clubs’

Forget the facts they have a higher wage bill (although we do seem to skim some onto CFA for non-playing staff) so they are actually probably similar, but cert

There team costs very similar and there record signings are more expensive.

The only argument seems based on the fact we brought our full backs most recently when the price is higher (is 50 million for Mendy now that much more then 30 for Shaw was then). The irony in this is when Mourinho was at Chelsea he complained he could not compete with United as they could pay Shaw a lot more per week.

That said I’m happy for that lot to believe it is impossible to compete, if Jose can convince United of this then he has done a great job for us!

Good win for United last night. Fantastic goal by our local lad Lingard. Not everyone's cuppa tea but has a keen eye for goal.
City looked good today too mind you.
how local is Warrington (its in Cheshire not even in Greater Manchester) next you will be telling us Beckham was local lad from Leyton.
Warrington to Manchester 18.8 miles
Warrington to Liverpool 19.3 miles

Are we not claiming Foden as a local lad then as he's from Cheshire too?

He's hit a purple patch for sure but I'm pretty sure, like the rest, he'll be at Sunderland in three years.
 
maybe his nose is local
Now now boys,we should not remark on a person's features, bad form, though he does have a massive one. Never mind, you too will have academy grads playing for you eventually. No doubt about that.
How do you boys think you'll do in Europe?

I thought Phil was from Stockport, but my point was more about him being local , Micah was one of ours but was from Leeds
