    I laughed at his "too honest" remark while suggesting what Remi should have done to go down.

    I gave to say that it is pretty amazing the amount of support Jose has. Lose seven games and they are still calling him the best manager in the world. Totally madness! Every other decent manager is top three when in that list they have about ten. Can they not count what three means? Besides, what exactly makes Jose best manager in the world? He's really done nothing of above and beyond in the last five years but talking himself up.

    Cause hes won a bunch of big big trophies and before this season happened hes basically been successful wherever he has been

    Obviously fergie hasnt had a season that we are having before but hes had poor seasons and he had a barren 3 seasons during the mid 2000s. Not taking anything away from fergie as he built united into the force they are but like how people criticise messi for not trying it away from barca, fergie stayed at united, the biggest club in england since the pl era started. This doesnt stop him being one of the most successful (if not the)

    Anyway lets see how jose gets on in the next few seasons

    That's the thing. Jose has never built without having an already established framework. He is also not the only manager to have won wherever has gone. There are plenty on that group. What he does best is talking and eventually that charm wears out after two seasons.

    He is by no means all around manager. I would put at least five above him in that department.

    Closed the gap in the league to both Man City and Arsenal this weekend :emoticon-0148-yes:

    City in particular would have fancied thumping bottom of the league Villa.

    6 relatively tough games and then a nice easy one thrown in then.

    I said on the CSKA thread 10 games we should expect to win regardless of competition. Reality is we may very well not win every one which is fair enough. But we'll make hard work of some unnecessarily I'm sure. As long as we can look back at every game and say we played to our full potential then the results I can accept.

    When I first read that I thought you'd had a stroke whilst typing.

    Should be looking for at least 14 points from the first six, with Leicester being a tough one and Watford and Stoke also maybe giving us some problems.

    Then, assuming Mourinho is in charge at Xmas, we should get a minimum of five points from the 7th <ok>

    He must have meant the Liverpool game. He was right there.

    I think we've got to grips with long ball sides now. Hopefully we won't be completely undone by a few punts and vardy running onto them.

    Having the best defender and goalkeeper in the league should help us.

    Even if we win our next 10 matches and we were top, some fans and the media would still moan and complain :bandit:

    According to the critics, we are worse than Chelsea. Chelsea are simply lucky, but United on the other hand, are just a terrible team.
