i love how it's all Moyes fault. How about the 11 players running around take most of the blame? Moyes can only control so much. Take a bit of pride in your performance and stop blaming the manager. there almost 20 points of the pace that's disgraceful for a club like United

The players hate the manager so of course they wont play for him.
You see it all the time in plenty of sports. Moyes tactics are also alot to blame, too many players played out of position and guys gifted games. Vidic has signed a multi million dollar contract at Inter next year so of course he is only playing half arsed, id sit him on the bench and play kids.

Maybe the players should have a hard look at themselves because this could be the start of a slide. There's plenty of talent in that team. play for the top if you don't like the manager the rest will sort itself out.

Yep, been tit for tat for along time.
A few years ago it looked to have disappeared but after the Evra/Suarez saga sections of the Liverpool crowd brought out the old Munich chants so United replied with the Hillsbrough chants and its escalated again.


That's disgraceful on both accounts.

I can fully understand how it seems that way but you have to understand the culture over there. The two clubs despise each other, I still no people over there that dont speak Liverpool supporters and even refuse to shop at stores owned by Liverpool supporters. A very close mate of mine took his daughter to a differant school this year because the new headmistress was a Leeds supporter.

Moyes has to go.
We saw how the Chavs were a rabble and hated their previous managers, Jose comes back everyone is happy and the results are showing.
Maybe Ferg was just a freak manager, we have had some average players for years and often not the best squad but he got the players to bleed for him no matter what their skill was. Most of any sport is played above the ears

I've said this before but I reckon Ferguson should stay away from the club. He's had his day. David Moyes' cause is not helped by having Fergie casting a critical eye from the stands.

Let's not forget that he lobbied hard to have Moyes as his successor so he has to accept some of the responsibility for the club's predicament.

Whilst Fergie was a great manager he's not a very good judge of managerial talent. I remember him saying Aston Villa made a good choice in appointing Alex McLeish three years back :roll:

Looking like a cracking end to season at top and bottom.
Looks to be down to a 3 horse race at the top but if Arsenal win their game in hand they are still only 4 points from top. Chavs look to have the easiest run home, Shiteh have plenty of games in hand but still have Arsenal, Liverpool and the derby ( ok United are easybeats but still a derby lol). Liverpool finally look the real deal, in previous years they would of slipped up against sides like Cardiff but they are now winning them comfortably. Chavs still slight favourites IMO.
At the bottom we have 10 points between the 10th and last and that should go right down to the wire. Fulham and Cardiff look like rabble and appear certainties and im tipping Palace to be the other side to go down although a run of 3-4 decent games may see any of thosr sides stay up

Another piss poor effort !

not good enough. What is it with north London sides against quality opposition. Woeful. Both Arsenal and Tottenham have had some embarrassing score lines this season!

Wenger sat on his arse whilst the team had no direction and no leadership again. That was more shameful to me that the manager did not do much. Not yelling at players to pick their game up.

Just need a few more wins to prevent Tottenham on getting to 4th then we will finish in our usual position

YepI reckon the Chavs have to be favorites at the minute, as they have runs on the board (plus were pretty impressive last night). Man C are well capable of getting on a run though, but as you've said they have the harder draw and will have a cluttered fixture at some stage.

I love the way Rodgers has us playing, it's a style that gives us a chance every game if we get it right .. Ultimately though I think we'll fall just short because we are far too leaky at the back, and we're not going to be banging 5 past City or Chelsea.

Spot on. Tuck off Ferguson and let Moyes do his job.

Remember Jim its not his team. Get this season out of the say, dispose of some the hacks and has beens and bring in a few of his own and Utd will be back on track.

You United fans make me laugh FFS, you are 6th in the league. Try being a fan of a real football club, where if you don't win your last game of the season you are out of the league altogether.

Moyes is a very good manager. He's a shrewd operator in the transfer market and a very good tactician. Its not his fault Ferguson bailed out at the right time.

If you don't at least win the FA Cup that talk will be deafening.

They had high expectations at the start of the season which now looks like it's going to come to another disappointing end. I'm sure the club aren't as bothered as the fans as long as they achieve CL status again. There isn't a great deal of difference, financially, from finishing 1st or 4th.

I guess the worry will be where will Arsenal finish when United get back to winning ways? City and Chelsea are going to take two spots for the foreseeable future and Liverpool are looking strong under Rodgers guidance.

I think Wenger might be in a spot of bother when Arsenal fail to make the top 4. Unfortunately that might be next year.

Liverpool are looking the goods due to no European action.They look fresh and as if its the 4th week in a new season !

When they start European again then we can say they are good. Commentators said they have only played 35 games this season ??
