so manu still considered title contender or not?

Well deserved lost. Their hunger to win is far stronger than us. If draw, I would say a point gained.

Should try new tactic with garnacho as starting 11. Not always impact sub.

We dont play like champions (i dont believe Arsenal do as well) but until it is mathematically proven that we cant be in the race, we have an outside chance. Either way, we dont play like champs.

Looking for another Man city type of winning?   

Man City much harder than arsenal but United players lack of focus for full 90 minutes

With Casemiro I do think the result will be different

We miss dearly Dalot,Martial and Casemiro

18 matches, is still long way to go.

In 2011-2012 season, Utd were like 9 points ahead to City. But the team squandered the lead, until the last match, when Aguerooooo scored the winning goal.

If the Sengal fans think they already won, I'd savour every drip of their tears at the end of the season when they implode like they usually do such as the season when Leicester won the league, as that season the other clubs were in shit form except them, yet they still loss the plot.

Arsenal is destine to be champion this season

1. Consistent
2. Squad depth
3. Less injury
4. Score a lot of half chance goals
5. Luck

Harry Kane to stay at Spurs 

tough luck. awb missing his man, then putting him onside later on. aih

Been too busy with work.. watch matches but no time to post here..

Noticed that United playing like a Jose team nowadays.. park the bus.. ball over the top, run from behind.. hit on the counter..
Hanging on 1-0 lead.. not proactively looking for the killing blow.. only reacted when opponents equalized..

Under Jose back then they called it cowardice football.. under ETH they call it progress.. same stuff different marketing..

Interceptions and successful presses is good.. similar like Ole first season..
Only one game showed control, dominate and dictate of the game so far imo.. against Spurs..

Signings.. 14 players out replaced with 7 last summer.. more than 1mil per week saved.. the manager said publicly the squad is full and good..
January window so far, one player out and one player in.. saved 456k per week.. Glazers must be happy..

The manager haven't said publicly the club not backing him.. so i take the rumors that the board dont back him as speculation..

Anyway looking forward to February 26, should be the day United 5 years trophyless run ended.. GGMU

I'm just saying it like how i see it and pointing out the double standards form the media and OT fans..

I do not know how to change the way team play within 6 months.. but Eddie Howe did it at Newcastle.. so it is not impossible as people alluded to..

Cowardice football, as long as end up with trophies, all is good.. Jose did it and won 2 cups.. that should be the benchmark..

This is not about simply giving playing time for fringe players anymore.
It is a must to rest at least half of the lineup team against Nottingham.
All of them is too tired.

Further more, EFL semi final is 2 legs.
Even lost, have 2nd leg at home to turn things around.

Casemiro can play, since he rested against Arsenal.
Malacia, Garnacho, Fred must replace Shaw, Rashford, Eriksen.
Other positions, Ten Hag really need to make a choice.

Domino effect?
Son will leave?

Their recent form has been good tho, we expose them from the start with wide vs their narrow formation. But our defense was shaky also, allowed them a lot of chances.

ETH need to start using young midfielders in coming weeks. Fernandes will need a breather, Eriksen probably out for a month. Casemiro is the key, MacFred are okay in cup competitions but still a poor combo in league games.

We are good in defence department, wide players also in a decent depth. GK are well covered.

Upfront are obvious low in quality. Martial, Weghorst and Elanga. False 9 probably not a bad idea because we didn't do a lot of crosses.

I believe Glazers are in no mood to splash cash, but I still hope for a low key signing.

last day... any last min purchase? backup purchase at least.. cfc shopping like buy vege je.. power the new owner
