    We clearly have one. Weve been buying mostly the right players for the past year now.

    I'm interested to know who else honestly believes we are challenging for the title with this manager and the squad as it stands today? If a new thread is needed I'll be happy to start it.

    I assume you've neglected to look around the league.

    Of course you havent.

    Well...and see if you can follow this. I listed the examples of the things I appear to be proved right on. Things we have disagreed about over the last two months. I listed examples.. in the post.

    You replied by saying... "Not sure what you have been proved right on..." <laugh>

    It's a common pattern with you. Ppl post stuff and you just ignore it. It's like you're in denial.

    Start the thread, it would be a good discussion.

    I for one don't think we'll challenge. Not the way we play, no way. And I can not see a young 19 year old with an enormous price tag in a new country affecting that too much.

    I don't think we'll challenge. We are short a top quality goalkeeper, a centre half, a pacey winger and a striker. We're aces for number 10s and DCM though. The squad is very unbalanced.

    If Valdes is staying as it currently appears, I say we use him in goal.

    With van gaal as coach we have no chance. With another coach and same squad we might have a 40% chance.

    Bale, Muller and Pogba wanted a top 4 club so they signed for us instead :)

    It's not just the squad but also the manager. if united and say Chelsea or man city are in tussle to sign a top class player, there are great chances the player will choose to play for mourinho or pellegrini than play for van gaal. Going by his falling out with many players and his 'philosophee' I can't really see top players wanting to play for him

    Also why keep Grinch until the last hours if Bale isn't part of the deal? Had this been Moyes (coupled with the money spent, and 'quality' of performances) he'd have been lynched outside of Old Trafford by now.

    This.

    I actually think that we'd have more of a chance with the the same squad if we had a manager who understood the prem.

    Wow this season lasted 4 games??

    Still remember last season everyone telling us we wouldn't get anywhere near the top 4 even after the start we had. No top 4 for Chelsea and Arsenal this season then?
