    Pretty sure that in the 1985-86 season United led by about 10 points having won their first 10 or 11 games.

    They finished fourth and we won it. It's a good start but these meaningless stats are beginning to annoy.

    We're deffo dropping points v Chelsea / Man City.
    Really?

      I must admit I was saving that stat for our tenth win on the bounce.

      United won their first ten then imploded.
      Oh I don't know.

          Yeah, do recall that...under Big Ron who went on a spending spree that summer & brought in the likes of Jesper Olsen who was a decent player but a bad injury to one of their defenders & Bryan Robson put paid to their season after that run...mind you, they rode their luck in that run so weren't all that!
          Nope, don't need anger management, you just need to stop pissing me off!

            I also imagine a 32 game accumulator would pay a bit more than 1000-1.
            32 game accumulator would be over 20,000 to 1

              30 games at an average of 2/5 is 24,000/1

              Id want around 500/1 just for correctly predicting WDL split of 32 games never mind predicting each individual outcome

                The extra 2 games makes it 47435/1.

                For the full 38 games, the actual odds would be 357162/1.

                So, 1000/1 you say?

                      It's tight at the top. Three unbeaten teams level on 20 points after seven games.

                      And we've played two of them already.

                      If we can somehow start hitting top gear, we're very well placed.

                      Otherwise, we're showing we can grind out results, whilst not aesthetically pleasing, is nonetheless a progress of a different sort.

                        We need to get the front three firing, defence has been good but the offence has been fairly dire the last few games

                        The only gracious way to accept an insult is to ignore it; if you can't ignore it, top it; if you can't top it, laugh at it; if you can't laugh at it, it's probably deserved.

                          I wonder if it’s worth trying to mix it up a bit, or trying Mane and Salah on different wings - just alter the dynamic a bit and see what comes out of it.

                            surprised it hasn't been tried more this season.

                              8 games right - 6 wins and 2 draws - 20 from 24...?
