Ferguson's team selection really is to blame for last week's result and this result. How he can keep starting an absolute donkey like Evans ahead of Jones is beyond me.

A very nervy player at the best of times and is always a mistake waiting to happen.
ANGRY :mad::mad::mad:

City fans are class. "Sacked in the morning, you're getting sacked in the morning".

City always have pretty great support to be fair to them.

maybe but this is a statement. I can't see us picking 5 points back up on city over the course of the year, especially because we have to go out and lose there yet

we'd have to be flawless for the next few months and drop no points at all.

0-3, definitely the most humiliating thing i've seen since 1-4

This is the type of nonsense I was talking about earlier. A few weeks ago people were saying United were going to walk away with the league. Now there is this type of nonsense. City have played brilliantly, taken the rub of the green and deserve the 3-0 lead. But saying that 5 points is insurmountable? Talking about the game in Eastlands as already being decided? That is actually laughable.

One draw and the lead would be down to 3 points and even today's game shows how one moment change a game. United were on top, City scored and they haven't looked back. Big games change in an instant. The red card has drastically altered the second half too.

Fair enough today is disappointing, but must these results cause the same OTT reactions every season? Sometimes I wonder if posters here have ever watched football. Teams lose games, it happens no matter how good you are.

Fair play to City, they fully deserve the lead they have and have hammered home their advantage today. But talk of the league being over is such a load of shíte.

Not much point whinging about this lads, getting well beaten here. Hopefully the scoreline doesn't get any worse. We haven't even made one chance all day.

Good save. Don't tell Bateman!

InTheTrees · 23-10-2011 03:06PM

I dont have a favourite between them but its been fun to watch city's play, they're really looking good.

Frisbee · 23-10-2011 03:07PM

Seriously. Grow the fúck up.

When I open this back up keep it on topic.

Yakult · 23-10-2011 03:11PM

Nice goal from Fletcher!!

Leiva · 23-10-2011 03:12PM

Got to hand it to Manchini .

Well done .

SAF has got it wrong the past couple of games with team selection.
Vidic should have started and with the amount of corners UTD had in the first 20mins could have been a real treat aswell .

Really is gonna be tight for top 3 as Chelsea have their Shiite in order aswell .

Best league in the World by a mile .

KittyeeTrix · 23-10-2011 03:12PM

Open again............
Good goal by Fletcher but hope that's not the start of a comeback by Utd!!

Derfil · 23-10-2011 03:12PM

Best goal of the day.

ItsAWindUp · 23-10-2011 03:12PM

Strange that this thread was open just after United pull one back?:p (Just kidding)

Cill Dara Abu · 23-10-2011 03:12PM

Maybe close this thread permanently because it's a joke

parker kent · 23-10-2011 03:13PM

If United did get a second in the next few minutes, it would be a tense finish. Ifs and buts etc etc, but you can't give up hope when there is time on the clock.

The_Kew_Tour · 23-10-2011 03:13PM

City look good in fairness. Better team won today

spiralism · 23-10-2011 03:13PM

nice consolation fletch. this is a real wake up call to be honest, we've not been at the races since the stoke match

If the score was reversed you wouldn't be calling for it to be closed.

Nuri Sahin · 23-10-2011 03:13PM

4 quality goals. Great strike from Fletcher.

Dcully · 23-10-2011 03:13PM

I imagine he's injured / unavailable??
Otherwise he would have been on the bench surely?
