Great victory today! All our tough games bar City out the way, an only 2 points off the top. UNITED!!!
I said as soon as the fixtures came out that we'd be playing catch up all season and that if we could stay in touch going into the run in that we'd edge it.
Starting to believe??? We are Man United, I believe we will win every day, month, year - as long as SAF is in charge we will be there or there abouts year in year out.
That was a very good call I still reckon City will drop five or six points over the next few weeks. The challenge for us is to not let up and make sure we don't drop more than two or three - if we can go to the council house ahead of City they'll have to come at us so we'll have a great chance of getting a result.
If we can have a bit more luck with injuries then who knows. It would be nice to have the likes of Valencia, Anderson and Cleverley available for the run in. Winning it this season would be one of SAF's greatest achievements as let's face it City have used their billions to build an impressive squad and at times we've had to cope with a ludicrous number of injuries. Even if we don't win it we should be proud of the job the manager and players have done. Chelsea, in particular, Arsenal and Liverpool have all just bent over and let City run away from them. Credit to Spurs for challenging for as long as they did. Their players and manager have shown character.
City still have to play Chelsea and Arsenal so lets hope they lose points in them 2 matches. I think the derby will be a vital factor to who wins the title.
Yes green with envy. We have done what they can't do I.e converting our chances in a ruthless way. On our way to number 20 ... Who can blame them though...when they have not even won a single premiership title. They'll make do with the the Carling Cup
On the way today, I said to my brother-in-law " if we can beat Spurs today then I think we will win the premier league again". After one of our poorer away performances this season we end up scoring 3 goals and taking the points ! I think there will be a few twists and turns before the end of the season but by the time we play city, I think we will be ahead on points. Shame Giggsy gave away a soft goal but another crap performance by Nani and surprised Sir Alex left him on so long. Will chelski's "old guard" start playing now they have helped to get rid of AVB and go on a run, taking points off city in the process ? Another great weekend !!!!!
I simply didn't think we could do it without Vidic, let alone all the other injuries that have plagued us since September. But look at us now, it's March, we are clear of a difficult run of games and we have almost a full team back. City seemed to struggle just with the loss of Yaya to ACON. Wouldn't it be nice if Anderson and Cleverly resumed where they left off!
Never thought we would be where we are because of all the injuries we were having and our poor away form from last season.De Gea seems to have his confidence back and is winning us games.Jones and Evans have been immense.Scholes return has put some calm/guile in midfield and the injured players are coming back at the right time!!
Its not the good teams we struggle against its the **** teams like Blackburn and Newcastle that we **** up in.
I was never a fan of United...... until that Nou Camp game.That had to be just the most incredible match ever and really underlines what they are capable of.As a Norwich supporter I suppose I should have been cheesed off about the Giggs winner,but I wasn't. I desperately didn't want to hand the title to City and I think that might have done. United look set for the title again.I just hope we can put the skids under City at a crucial time.Maybe we can wheel out Delia for a repeat "Let's be avin you"
