Isn't it funny how the Spuds constantly come on here with their amazeballs bants and then throw a b

There is no bh fit when they want a conversation this time but nobody is interested after their tedious st posting.h fit. It's you chaps that get all fighty and precious if someone who's not a utd fan tries to make conversation. Relax chaps. The world isn't out to get you.

Who gives a fk, other than you poorly endowed Spuddies who have to come on here trying and failing to WUM your way through Sunday evening. I would quite like one day to have a discussion with United fans about United, instead of having to skip through your pathetic bleating about:
1. Almost winning a trophy once
2. Having the best XI the world has ever seen
3. Having more money in the bank than anyone else
4. Not having any money to buy players
5. Having the biggest temporary ground in the country
6. Having a shiny new stadium next year, that will help with 3, but not 1 or 2
7. It not being fair that other teams want to beat you and blaming it on the stadium you’re playing in
8. Displaying huge amounts of jealousy about United, whilst pretending not to be impressed
9. Being so pathetic that you’ve given up on your own team, to switch teams to the leaders of the PL, just to try to get a rise on here
You’re (see how it works BCM) just a sad, repetitive act and a small little club in London, who (barring the odd exception to prove the rule) finish below both Arsenal and Chelsea, both of whom have winning teams and winning mentalities. Now tootle off and see if you can cope with being the 3rd best team in the stinking sthole that is London and barely top 6 nationally.
Oh and CL wins / losses mean fk all, as no English club is going to win the competition this year, least of all you lot.

So - away to Watford tomorrow. Is Mourinho going to park the bus?
Tricky game,Watford going well .I’d expect to see Matic and Fellaini in midfield with Pogba as the ten.
As for parking the bus,you have made 38000 posts on Pistonheads ,I’d suggest you’re the expert on parking yourself somewhere .

He might. I honestly don't think his instructions to the players differ that hugely, but he has instilled a lot of caution, which means that the default is fairly defensive. Only when the players feel 'up' do they start to flow a bit more.We could be pretty awesome if the side gets into a good run and confidence builds. But we de fall back on quite dull football when the confidence ebbs a little.
We've not played great so far this season and have missed our best player for a lot of games, yet we are still leading the pack trying to chase City. If we hit some fom, the race for 2nd could finish not long after the title race. Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal and Spurs all look less capable of a big run.

Wow, 2 teams get draws and 1 barely scrapes through 1-0 and all hell breaks loose on here over, basically, who's the least st. 
No room for argument on that. The PL table makes clear that Utd, despite not having hit much form, are comfortably less st. t than anyone else other than City.jammy-git said:
And by comfortably you mean just by a few points having had arguably the easiest start to the season.
3-5 points at this stage of the seasons would equate to 9-15 points at the end of the season. Nonsense on "easy start". We have played plenty of good sides. In any case, most teams in the PL are pretty similar in terms of the challenge that they pose. I dont think playing a team that is 8th or 10th is much harder than playing a team that is 15th. Maybe the team looking down already will be more motivated.
It's all swings and roundabouts. You just have to beat the team in front of you on any given day. The rest is moaning and excuse-making.

After 19 games would be a fairer assessment surely.
Yep. And 20 would be better, as would 21.Irrespective of the table ,aside from city all the other teams have looked remarkably inconsistent.
Difficult to draw conclusions from anything.League looks weak overall but english teams doing great in the champs league ,but that's more due to the decline in to others than improvement in english teams.Madrid off the boil ,barca ,bayern and borussia all badly fading forces,hard to see beyond a city psg final if the draw goes that way.
None of spurs,liverpool,chelsea or arsenal look any better than last season,we do and city do so far.

Mirrors my thinking pretty much. Save for the fact it's going to be a United v PSG final.
