Manchester United

[BigChief]

They create lots of chances and there play around the box is fluid, reminds me of us last season in a lot of ways with Di Maria their Suarez.

Agree with Tee, though the result and their defending was expected their build up play was a hell of a lot better than I wanted to see. Specially against a decent midfield like Brom's.

Thank God they've already chucked points away at Sunderland, Burnley, Leicester, Swansea, etc, or they would now be picking up points easily there.

And it wasn't all Di Maria last night as he was struggling for most of the game (still good though obviously). Hope Costa's fit and ready to go next weekend, don't want that utd defence to get a single moment's breather.

[RichC]

Yeah I must say I wasn't convinced he'd deal with the PL but he's been excellent who's taken to the PL brilliantly.

Two losses and two draws vs Palace and Arsenal would be good from those 4 games it would hopefully put them a fair way behind us in the chase for the CL places.

[Tee]

Imagine Di Maria in our team....wow...

Seriously, if they fail to make CL and we do make it, we should break the bank for him. Worth every penny IMO.

[Reece]

They wouldn't even let us have Heinze on a free, as if they'd ever entertain selling us their most expensive ever player

[The_weatherman]

Wasn't Markovic compared to Di Maria and even more highly rated by some. Maybe in two years we'll have our own Di Maria.

[Gibbo]

Don't be silly, after only a handful of games for us it's easy for all to see that he's dog****

[Robbie-9-Fowler]

Just looking at their fixtures, they're in a ridiculous position given the start they've had! Not just **** teams on paper, its reflected by league position too.

Swansea (home) 8th
Sunderland (away) 17th
Burnley (away) 19th
QPR (home) 20th
Leicester (away) 15th
West Ham (home) 4th
Everton (home) 13th
West Brom (away) 14th

There next run of games;

Chelsea (home) 1st
City (away) 2nd
Palace (home) 16th
Arsenal (away) 7th

Van Gaal says they can catch Chelsea

Really? Their other attacking players hardly got a sniff, Van Persie, Mata and Januzaj, so much so they resorted to sticking a big lump on and hoofing up to him. It does not compare at all to our incisive, free flowing attacking play last year IMO.

[red g]

i would be shocked if they are still in the top half after those 4 games.

4pts tops

[Tee]

Hate to say it but I think we are going a bit too overboard in our mocking and I reckon they will cause most teams problems with their attackers.

I thought Januzaj actually played quite well last night, certainly the most disciplined game I have seen him play. Looks more than decent.

I hate them so much but the reality is it does look like they can turn this situation around, especially if they spend a **** load again in January on the right areas.

Yep. Funny as ****. They wont admit it now but every one of them was already planning how many points they'd be top by at this stage. Nice to see the turnaround on Janujaz too, they are absolutely destroying him after his latest horrendous performance, took them a while to realise one good performance v Sunderland doesnt make a kid great.

I expect them to get better, no doubt, but on the evidence so far I don't think LVG has found a system that suits all his attacking players. I'm not sure if he can either as the egos of some may prevent them from putting in a shift if they aren't the main man.

Janujaz > Sterling

The press need to take a large amount of blame. You'd have thought Grannysjizz was the new Ronaldo the way some of them went on.
