Shame Herrera's injured though. Was going to lambast his overratedness on Redcafe in the next six games when they were absolutely trounced by all and sundry.

[rodo]

still dont think we are in much better shape than them at the moment

[Darkon]

They are above us in the table after all...

They are above us in the table after all...

We've had some tough games, they've not had one. In fact their start has been absolutely piss easy. We'll finish above them.

I agree about the start, it was just to put it in a bit of a perspective when so many are laughing at them right now, and sorta forget that we are not a well oiled machine right now. They've lost some incredibly easy games on paper and they will be in for a though season no doubt.

I also believe we have a much better foundation to build upon, and we just need to get the new guys adjusted a bit and find our way around the less quick and agressive pressing from losing Suarez. Defensively and midfield wise, we have a stronger and wider squad and will be fine once it melts together a bit more.

Tbh. it's probably only GK position and outrigt strikers that they are in a better place than us.

That iPhone 6 gag from a few posts back could be applied to us now!

Look at the starting fixtures though. They had a much easier go of it.

they haven't even produced a half decent performance and in fact are probably lucky to have those points on the table, We should have had a few more on the table.

Any team that attackes them and they will be in trouble.

[Lecter]

We should have had a few more on the table.

On paper maybe but other than Everton I cant say I feel too hard done by in any of our other games

We've pretty much got what we deserved

I know yeah. Mad though. We're 14th I think and they are 7th but only one point ahead. I'm giving up laughing at them.

[Liverpel]

They haven't played any team from last season's top 11 yet.

[~LFCHistory~]

They haven't played any team from last season's top 11 yet.

Yes and they've yet to beat a team that didn't lay down for them, QPR and WH were mentally beaten before the first whistle thanks to Arry and Fat Sam who didn't want to upset Ferguson.

Sir Alex Ferguson v Roy Keane - war of words between former Manchester United legends set to reignite

Roy Keane has claimed that his relationship with Sir Alex Ferguson, his manager for 12 years at Old Trafford, is now "non-existent"

Sir Alex Ferguson is to speak to 1,700 business leaders at Dublin Chamber's Annual Dinner next Thursday - just hours after Roy Keane launches of his second autobiography, which is expected to re-open his feud with the former Manchester United manager, in the Irish capital.

Keane claimed last year that his relationship with Ferguson, his manager for 12 years at Old Trafford, is now 'non-existent' as a result of an increasingly bitter war of words between the two men.

The former United captain, now working as assistant manager of both Aston Villa and the Republic of Ireland, claimed Ferguson 'does not know the meaning of the word loyalty' after being criticised by the Scot in his book, Alex Ferguson, My Autobiography, last October.

With Ferguson sanctioning Keane's exit from Old Trafford in November 2005 and describing the Irishman's departure as a 'relief,' Keane insisted he had lost all respect for the man who once described the £3.5m signing from Nottingham Forest as the embodiment of himself on the pitch.

Keane's new book, The Second Half, is due to be released next Thursday, with the author understood to be ready to deliver his candid verdict on Ferguson and also address the controversial Rock of Gibraltar saga, when Ferguson fell foul of Irish racing tycoons John Magnier and JP McManus over the stud fees from the successful racehorse.

Despite the furore that Keane's book is expected to create when launched next week, Ferguson has accepted the invitation to speak at the prestigious Dublin Chamber's event, which will also feature speeches from Irish Taoiseach Enda Kenny, on the same day that Keane discusses his autobiography.

Ferguson, meanwhile, is due to appear on the Old Trafford pitch on Sunday for the first time since making a farewell speech following his retirement as United manager in May 2013.

Ferguson will make a presentation to Ji-Sung Park, the former United midfielder, prior to the game against Everton this weekend.
