    It was their cup final OS, neither side are going to win anything else. And be fair, if we beat Maureens Manure 4-0 we'd give it some as well.

    Do you not think Chelsea look organised and now pose a threat? Genuine question as I have not seen much of them.

    Another disappointing result for the media. It seems that the best that Pep and Mourinho's 'Battle of the Legends' can compete for is a top 4 spot. The media were determined that the story and the title were all about those two managers. Unfortunately, for that story, it's about the players.

    Like City, United's recruitment was poor. They both bought attacking players when it was obvious to everyone that their defences were rubbish last season. A top notch defensive midfielder and a leader in central defence would have been far more useful than M'Khitaryan and Ibrahimovic. Buying Pogba and having no idea where to play him is just rank bad management. I wonder how long it will take for the natives and tourists to turn restless? Next game is Citeh in the League Cup. Arsenal in November and a tricky looking December should test everyone's faith in Mourinho.

    No I dont, Luiz should have been off, Costa looks like Soldado on valium. Unfortunately, the only team I think that might finish above us are the bloody mousers..

    As I said, is Jose gonna get the boot if Man Utd do not get a CL slot next season ??
    They have bankrolled the spending, and I assume Jose approved the signings.

    As they said in Monty Python "I don't understand your banter." Sorry lads.

    Who remembers the Man U team of the seventies which went into slow decline and then down? Busby left, and Frank O'Farrell took charge, he left and I can't remember who took charge, he left and Tommy Docherty took them down?

    Wilf McGuiness is the one you're thinking of.

    So it is well there's a similar scenario now. They began to lose heavily with an unbalanced side i.e. Man U 1 Spurs 4 and here we go again.

    To think that the man who's coaching Sunderland is the same man Ferguson wanted to guide this faltering team.
