thing is united REALLY havent played well recently. theyve been winning, but barely, against weak sides. stands to reason theyll come unstuck every now and then , and lose more often than not against decent sides

He's got one more point after 20 games than he did last season

Hmmm

So unless things drastically change, you're saying he won't even drag them into the europa league?? Moysiah!!! Go ed lad

4 defeats at the theatre of dreams already.... steady

Ever since City whooped them 6-1 they've largely been dull.

That's more down to them being poor than them not wanting to lose ala Chelsea this season.

united WILL NOT get top 4 this season, u can tattoo it on me arse its not happenin

That's fair enough. Although I remember them setting up not to lose against City in the 2012 title decider

From what I've seen, that's not what happening. If he did, they wouldn't lose as many games IMO or concede as many goals. They've conceded 24 goals. We've conceded 19 with "Moyes" defence and a more attacking manager.

Against the top sides?? That's what my post was about.

Mindset of ' just don't lose'. He doesn't set out to attack and win the games against the top sides. He did that here too pretty much.

Remember his comments when we played the ****e at analfield a couple of years ago. The 3 nil?? ****ing prick.... last straw for me that.

Lol, moyes crying about not getting penalties.

He said in his interview that welbeck should've had a pen for one challenge if it's the one I saw I was amazed he didn't get booked. Clear dive. Then he cries about Januzaji gettin booked for diving he has been diving week in week out (haven't seen the incident myself but that boy cries wolf every time someone breathes on him). Defending divers should be punished.

A month or so ago Rooney twice in consecutive matches was only booked for off the ball incidents of violent conduct. Did he cry foul then? No of course not lol.

A lot of this is down to Ferguson signing utter dross

 

[evilwebby]

Moyes failing the test yet again when it really matters. The penny still hasnt't dropped: its not the players. Its the manager and his tactics. Fans who cling onto the hope that new signings in january will transform their team are in denial.

He knew exactly what he was doing getting out when he did.

What are you trying to say? It was deliberate from whiskey to solidify his legendary status

Do you honestly think he cared about Manchester United? Rock of Gibraltar and his support of the glazers would question that.

Love a dive, do United.

I mean every side they play against. Out of the top sides United have played - RS, Arsenal, Chelsea, Everton, Spurs, City - they've gone out to win apart from the Chelsea game that Jose choked the life out of by not playing a striker.

They won against Arsenal, dominated against the RS but lost, and just outplayed or matched against the rest - losing all of them.

There's no real negativity, just out right average to poor side.

Oh and that was the last straw for me too when we lost to the RS 3 zip.
