    I think so, Torres was a one and a bit season wonder, then back to nothing

    No chance. Hernandez is a good goal poacher but we wouldn't be able to bring our midfield into play as well with someone like him who does literally nothing other than waiting for tap ins.

    RVP, Rooney, Torres, Eto'o, Hernandez, Welbeck/Ba in that order.

    Those aren't my words you're quoting. I know it's not deliberately turned out like that but those words can't be attributed to me.

    Torres has not been banging in the goals of late, yet he does have that fear factor when he runs at players he is hard to stop and brings other players into the attack. Little Pea is lethal 6 yards from goal but brings little else to the table

    Fergie the **** has seriously ****ed the more than capable as hes already proved David moyes. Leaving him with our conference quality squad like a **** on his desk.

    No wonder moyes looked puzzled on his first day. What a poor ****ing soul. Having to work with a squad of losers like he has.

    Burn them all I say, burn them all!!!!

    Not at all, and as far as you are concerned this is the last time I can be arsed to bother saying again.

    What some of us are is realistic enough to understand that there is bound to be a period of change where everyone gets used to working with each other and different methods. What we (lying ****s that we are) will do is judge Moyes's first season as that, a season. Therefore, at the end of it.

    If, for instance, we have finished eighth and between now and then there is no signs of anything starting to gell then maybe it should be looked at.

    What we (lying ****s) won't do is get hysterical at the thought that we might not get a trophy at the end of the season. It's not a big ****ing deal. Get your priorities in life sorted.

    Mate, there is a big difference between finishing in the top 4 and failing to win a trophy and finishing 7th, not looking even capable of winning anything, and losing half a dozen matches at Old Trafford against mid table and relegation opposition.

    If United were where Liverpool are, or even where Everton are, then I doubt people would be saying dicky boo, but you are currently looking like a shower of s**e and with the players you have, you shouldnt be. Thats UIR's point.

    But I did say months back that regardless of what happens, Moyes should be given at least a whole season in charge, maybe 2.
    See if he can turn things around next year, worse case scenario you miss out on the CL once, maybe twice.
    I dont think it would be that catastrophic. <whistle>

    Isn't that exactly what I'm saying though?

    If we end the season where we are with no signs of improvement then it should be looked at, but of we pick up and at least challenge for fourth and show some form then we judge his season on a full one.

    I'm sure that's what I said?

    Yeah, I agree to be honest. But I see UIR's point.
    There are no replacement managers better than Moyes available at the moment to be honest, so you may as well stick with Moyes until the seasons up regardless.
    He is an inferior manager to SAF and he needs to spend at least another 50-60m to get this squad anywhere near ready. This was always going to happen imo.
    Still shocked that he dumped all the coaching staff though, that was just ******ed.

    That's definitely been proven to be folly, no doubt.
    He's got the opportunity to sort all this out though, if he doesn't he'll ultimately deserve the chop.

    Right now though, achieves nothing and he simply has not been given a fair crack.

    Sturridge hasn't been fully fit all season, even when he's been playing he's only been about 80% fit.

    Next Please.




    P.S. I do like your team Swarbs. But no way would I have Evans instead of Sakho - that's just insane ;) I would also have Sturridge over RVP on CURRENT form <ok>
