    I agree fellas, that type of steam-rollering isnt the norm, but whenever we've lost (or not won) this season, the causes have been the same.

    The funny thing is, I'm not even worried about our defence. I've said that all season. But I can see that the style of football we play going forward (or should I say sideways <whistle>) will invite the better attacking sides onto our defence. It's actually our lack of threat going forward which is causing problems for our defence.

    What Arsenal did to us is what a traditional United side would have done to a Van Gaal side. Imagine for a second the traditional United side had come up against a Van Gaal side playing this way. Be honest, are you honestly saying you wouldnt be licking your lips and thinking fck yeah we can take this lot.

    His last side beat us and we tried playing the typical Fergie way... :(

    I blame the ref for that one though. **** was his name wasn't it. Or close enough.

    His Bayern side were a typical van Gaal side and tbh, his Ajax side was one of the best.

    It was a freak result. That's all. This seasons Leicester. The most surprised of all of us are the gooners themselves, that tells its own story.

    Yeh exactly, but I wasnt in the least bit interested anyway.

    I'm guessing they teach irony in year 4 but it's only been the first week for him.

    Probably learned the word irony from listening to John Motson.

    Therefore doesn't really know what it means or how to use it.

    Ha, yeah.

    Everything in football is ironic according to Motty.

    Yet very rarely is he right.
