Manchester United

As funny as that is, it demonstrates just how few signings, big money or otherwise become a complete success. For every RvP, there's a few Andersons and Verons. It happens to all clubs. But it didn't stop United walking the league most seasons.

But when it happens at LFC (see current crop of back ups), it's often attributed to bad management. I honestly don't think our success rate is far removed from the average.

it's because for us, every single penny counts - United/City/Chelsea and to an extent spurs and arsenal all seem to be 'allowed' to purchase a player for £10m+ and if they don't work out no one bats an eyelid

if we purchase any above £10m and they don't make an immediate impact, the press are all over it and then the fans

I'm not sure we're treated that differently by the press.

The difference comes where if you buy dross and still win trophies. The level of scrutiny would of course take up a higher proportion of any coverage if you don't qualify for the CL.

I remember quite a big deal being made about Vernon at United, and Torres at Chelsea.

you're just being picky

David Moyes has promised all United fans that they will be involved in a major European competition next year




even if he has to write the song himself

it was only ok the first time

[lickedlollipop]

how did Mata play? is MUFC showing signs of improvement? now when RVP is back and Mata in their team, they will regain confidence that's for sure.

Our result tonight really took the shine off their 2-0 home win v relegation favourites

[dom9]

United are now officially safe from relegation.

Ah well, there's always next year.

[Leyton388]

Cardiff were always going to bend over against them considering who their manager is.

Staggering how that crock of **** are only six points behind us. And Spurs three points.

Ole proving to continue to be manure's saviour by coming in last minute to manage Cardiff and gift manure 3 points. #supersub
