    You obviously haven't watched Zlatan, true he is no headless chicken sprinting around like a dog chasing a tennis ball but he is constantly on the move and taking up good positions or dragging defenders with him.

    What, when each of the teams have been up there early doors and the supporters have been all puffed up then they let it fall apart at the end?
    If you have no memory of any of them I am not going to trawl the internet trying to help you.

    When was the last time Man Utd had abandoned all hope of a title challenge by October and were comforting themselves with the fact that 4th place was still mathematically possible?

    In other words you are talking shyte yet again. yes all three teams ( liv, arse,spuds) have had seasons where they have looked like contenders but failed to win the league, problem is, that is feck all to do with what we are talking about; ie the state utd are currently in.

    Ahh, right, Yes we are having another **** season, one much like the last 3. I was just pointing out that you are again having a good season to start with but we have seen that before and it usually means nothing.
    If you don't get too giddy after 10 games I won't get too down after 10 either, promise :emoticon-0100-smile

    That's true, Leicester are falling off a bit, Chelsea are back up there, United are off the pace, Spurs are unbeaten, Arsenal are looking very strong and City will get better under Pep.

    Nope, what's to worry about?
    If we don't do well this year I will hope we do well next year. I have never worried about football, I love watching it (all games, any league) and enjoy it when we win but have never expected any more than what we get. You have 11 human men hopefully trying their best to win a game, sometimes they do, sometimes they don't. Either way I enjoy my summer and look forward to the next season <ok> :emoticon-0100-smile

    "The last 12 seasons"

    Still referencing the utd of Fergie's era Diego.

    We all know about the successful Fergie years but putting Leicester's title win down to Chelsea and Utd's status last season is ott mate, maybe their win was a fluke but the season didn't just compose of Leicester's 4 games against the two teams mentioned above.
    Based on Utd's current status who are "we all" allowing to have a chance of possibly winning this seasons title?

    Us maybe.<laugh>

    That is fine. Can we not apply the same to ourselves then? ie 10 games in and playing great football with results to match? Rather than 'worrying' when it's all going to come undone as you say it will we are just enjoying it. None of us think we're the best team in the world (bar Astro) and none of us think you're the worst team in the world (bar Astro), just that old 10 game cliche. It's not just about the point gap, the teams above you are teams putting in positive performances and in our case look a very settled squad whereas Jose seems as if he's still trying to figure out the formula that will get you performing again.

    The classic "It's only football" defence. Really is the last resort for supporters of teams that are doing ****.

    he's jsut calling them out for dodging... being unprofessional despite all the goading mourinho already has given them.

    They are obviously not bothered with him and are thinking scotland game more than swansea.
