Have some confidence in your team man!
Admittedly I care more for tge champions league than bundesliga
But it's still nice to see your team winning
That's how I see things as well. People expect too much of him if they think he's going to come out knocking them in like Suarez or Sturridge.
For someone of his age, and given he's a winger and not midfielder, for him to be participating in the build-ups to our attack so often is impressive to say the least.
Allen's tackle won us the ball high up on the pitch which turned into the goal as well. Allen has been great. He's up in the attacking third, pinging the ball around and helping us try to break down the defense in ways that Lucas doesn't really do. He's also been quick to get back when we lose possession, and finds himself in loads of space for the pass.
Depends what we do in January to be honest. With Carrick out we're a mess.
I'd go for Chelsea, Arsenal, City, United if we do good business. Think you're a better bet for fourth than Spurs at the moment but its all in flux. Everton looking fantastic, Newcastle real dark horses.
We could very easily be up two or three goals at this point. The chances have been there. Ivan and Rambo have put a few into the stands, and Hazard and Torres must have money who will assist a goal first. Neither want to shoot.
I thunk we'll turn it around and win 1-3.
It all depends on if you can keep up your current form. I just think the squad is too light compared to the likes of Chelsea and City, who will have little problem adjusting to injuries and fixture congestion.
But sometimes the stars just align and it may be Arsenal's season... Bendtner scored for fucks sake.

Yep sure randomly a team that dominates last season and has won most other seasons magically turns to shit over night. This is as bad as people's reactions to the season United lost to City only on goal difference when they had THE WORST injury crisis out of the entire league and probably the entire history of the premier league. Yet despite that City were 'deserved' winners that season who are just obviously better than shitty United trololololololol.
To be honest you could put on Rodgers as a player and he'd play well against this West Ham side.
Müller! Götze!
What a goal
Ah, that's what they're singing? couldn't quite make it out. It's mean, I like it.

Yeah, very good game from Allen so far.
There was not much clankery about it. It was fortunate, but with the pr essure we'd been applying it simply had to happen.

The bit that got me was "You try and win the next game. We move on. We will try and win the next game, never think much further than that." Where is the drive? Ambition? The plan? If this is the attitude he gives out to the media and fans, god knows what he gives out to the players. The lack of drive/confidence/a bloody plan is clearly showing on the attitudes of the players, most of which were frankly not good enough in the first place. It is like a perfect storm of pure shit, and it is so depressing. I am sure he can turn it around but how long should he be given?
Arsenal's problem is as usual, Wenger :lol. He is the reason they're still competitive, but also the reason they've suffered.
There's a big chance he feels that their performances so far justify the fact he has faith in them all and doesn't want to add to the group, so won't buy another striker or centre back. It's a real real possibility that could end up fucking you guys over come season's end.

Probably motm so far
That Bentner goal convinced him he doesn't need another striker.

He's playing well, but he still has one or two of those moments where he's looking for a pass when he ball arrives at him, and it ends up bypassing him which takes himself and Gerrard out of the game, and leaves them running at our defense. Needs to cut that out.
There was a 3 minute spell at the end of the first half where we kept misweighing our passes

OWN GOAL X2!
I am pretty sure Mourinho would have done better with the ManU squad which won the league last season.
It doesnt mean Moyes is a bad manager, its just the gap between great managers like Fergie & Mou and good managers like Moyes is a pretty big one.

correct about everything
west ham scoring some nice goals today.
Uh....yes? You're not fucking Sunderland or Fulham. Why would I call the supporters a joke based on a portion of them? If anything United fans deserve better than the current clusterfuck.
Fair enough, you had a big transition but I honestly don't think many of us thought it would be going this bad. You can't even blame this entirely on your squad considering how well SAF used it. Also great timing with FF reminding me yesterday how Alcorcon defeated Madrid with four goals a few years ago. I don't think I need to remind anyone here how the press, Madrid fans and fans from other clubs were all over it. That was just one game, United has been struggling against multiple teams, teams which haven't even achieved a third of what United has in the past 20 years. It's not like this is your first underperformance of the season.
