Maribo score!

Justice!

After Chelsea's win over Bayern killed the sport, it's finally come back alive!
 
Never - nope, compared to most other teams when it matters - yes. Guess you missed the penalty United should have had at the weekend.

It's also so lucky that Manchester United have been without half their first choice team and a huge chunk of their reserves for the season so far so that means they're having to play 4th and 5th choice players.

ok
 
Sure, but they are competing against clubs who can match that spending, to a degree.

United come up against Chelsea/City (etc) for the signature of a player who would help them compete and who would win?

If United are in the top 4? Depends. United don't have FFP to worry about.

Right now I think Chelsea are probably the most attractive team for players because of Mou, but how long will that last?

Obviously lots of variables and things change quickly, but I think United will be back to being a contenda in a couple seasons.
 
It is possible that Torres, without the pressure of being the leagues most expensive transfer, will reemerge as a viable attacking option for us this year?

Ambrose is so awful, Celtic should stop trying to sign so many strikers and replace him.
 
Except we can compete financially now. There's no reason we can't buy the rest of the players we need to challenge the league this season.

Nah. Splashing out £30m on Shaw, £60m on Di Maria, £37m on Mata and £29m on Herrera in the space of less than 9 months is something we can't do.
 
All part of the Van Gaal genius.

Getting out of all the cup distractions to focus on survival in the relegation battle.

Smart move.

Because we don't need to. Our squad isn't a pile of shit like United's is. Arsene would never spend that money on any of those players outside of maybe Mata. We can buy a 60m player if we really want to.
