Sneijder

Agreed mate, even last year they had a whole lot of luck go there way. While they did play well at the CS, I dont see them improving much on performances last year.

Don't they always ? there's always an element of luck involved in winning trophies. Sometimes you make your own luck and they certainly know how to do that through sheer determination and winning mentality. They may not have the best team, but they certainly have the best mentality, that is why they have been up there foor the past 20+ years and will continue to be there for the coming years.

True but this year they seem to be a completely different team oozing with confidence.

They looked very impressive during the pre-season and if they get Sneijder, they will be extremely difficult to stop.

True but keep in mind they have played mainly US teams and city in a semi competitive match, be interesting to see if they continue to play the way they did against city in competitive matches, While I think Sneijder will do a job for them and add alot to there attacking play the only position he can fit into in there current team is CM and unless they get a super defensive mid to screen the back 4 I see them getting other teams getting alot of space in midfield.

Very true mate. Pains me to say it but credit where its due to whiskey nose he has done a very good job instilling that winning mentality in his teams, perfect example was in the CS they kept playing and won in the end.

Mancs were **** away from home last year, and teams should remember that. Instead, most of the ferguson-bumming managers will forget that, and look at the Charity Shield, where they were quite good - and go back into the usual 'we cant beat them' mentality
