    We all know how quiet Scholes is and how unwilling he is to make any comments to the media. Yet he says that LVG will improve the team's performance by 25%. I am sure he didnt mean to be precise in that prediction but is he really asking fans not to expect the title next season?

    Improving the last points tally by 25% would have given us 80 points. Enough to get into CL but not enough to win the title...

    But the extra 25% will give us wins against Chelsea, ££££ and doubles against Spuds, Arsenal and Liverpool

    So UTD would finish top 3 with ease (maybe)

    If he can achieve that, it will be fine. All this talk about being champions in his first season is nonsense. It would be brilliant if he did take us to champions, but its one hell of an ask in his first year

    all this talk of title is optimistic and crazy. It assumes that LVG in one fell swoop will have corrected all the problems. How unrealistic is that...<ok>

    Agree with that Christiansmith. Improvements in all departments are needed, except goalkeeper. Thats how big the problem is for LVG

    About as unrealistic as us going from 1st to 7th in a year and liverpool going from 7th to 2nd.

    Rest assured the man that matters most here doesnt even know what the top 4 is. Hes only aware of 1st so he will naturally aim for that.

    1st is the target. Always will be. The closer the better.
