    Both Van Persie and Falcao are definitely injury prone, as is Rooney to some degree, so it definitely could leave them light up front

      Would love Welbeck to start banging in goals for Arsenal, while Falcao suffers at utd.

      So that it becomes a situation where everything they touch turns to Skitt ****!

          Every squad would be weak up front without two of their main strikers. I just hope it all goes to **** very quickly. They are all bouncing now, hopefully back to earth with a bang in their next league game.

            Yep, if they smash QPR, which there's every chance they will as they're ****e, then they will be intolerable

              Hope everything goes horribly wrong for them and they get relegated at some point soon. My UTD friends have been horribly annoying lately, more then usual. I didnt think it was possible. No matter how many discussions they turn in their favour by listing liverpool fans as stupid and know nothing, they keep throwing the 'When did you last win the premiership' at me. Administration would be a glorious thing. Some cheating scandal. Anything to see them crumble before me and swear off football forever. Slight heart attack wouldnt go astray either. Or a bus.

                I think their arrogance is just going to make it all the sweeter when they come to realise that they are going to miss out on the top 4 again.

                I genuinely believe their squad isn't up to a top 4 challenge yet. They are poor at the back, and have a weak spine down their team. Their squad is unbalanced and with a few injuries to key players they will struggle.

                The formation they are attempting is so alien to them that it will take a while for them to make it work. I'm not entirely convinced they have the players to make it work at all. Anyway by that point they will be chasing.

                They've failed to capitalise on a piss easy start to the season and soon have a really tough run of fixtures.

                There is a general malaise set in at that club, a dry rot similar to what happened to us during the Hicks and Gillette era. A few big name signings is just papering over the cracks IMO and over the course of the season that is going to show.

                I am honestly very confident that City, Chelsea, us and Arsenal will all finish ahead of them, and I'd say Spurs will run them pretty close for 5th too.

                They'll soon shut up.

                  Rio will help out whether he means to or not

                    Thats never going to happen ever. Even after a year of humble pie they still go on and on. Considering the way the club seems to have no problems with spending lots of money on transfer fees and wages, I see no reason why they wont splurge more come january to fix up any other issues. The more money they spend, the more chance of them getting top 4.

                              But they're particularly injury prone.
