    Yes. Terrible start. Fans having a pop at him. Seems to turn it around as the season draws to a conclusion.

    Terrible start; check

    Seems to turn it around as the season draws to a conclusion;..... he has a huge amount to do before we can even start to consider that the case. Wins against an awful Aston Villa and Newcastle does not equate to turning it around.

    Thats my thoughts Lloyd. Big ask to even win all 4 in the run into the last day. But if even gets to the last day with say Utd needing a win and Arsenal to lose then the 40/1 price will look large.

    Of course all this just makes it all the frustrating regarding some of the stupid points dropped earlier in the season sigh

    Home draw with Champions of Europe, against all current expectations as well.....

    Not saying, its a complete turnaround, there have been plenty "false dawns" before but at least there are a few positives at the moment.

    Throw a few quid on at 40 / 1 and if Utd win the next couple there will be opportunities to lock in a few easy quid.

    Ah no I think we kissed 4th goodbye with the abject displays against City and Pool.

    We look like a better team now, but honestly the teams we are beating lately are not up to much. I think there are some truly shocking defences in the Premier League this season, from the teams at the bottom right up to the likes of Arsenal, Spurs and ourselves, any team on any given day can fall apart defensively. Chelsea are still in a title race because they win their home games and defend. Everton have been solid at the back all year, Southampton too, and both are having great seasons. West Ham play some of the worst ball I've ever seen but will be in the league next year because they set up really well, and Palace have gone from a shambles to a fortress at the back under Pulis and now they will stay up.

    To win all 5 would be a serious turn around in form and play-style, and I'm not sure we're there yet. Everton away will be tough, and is the type of game we have been truly awful in this year. Then we have Southampton at home on the final day, and they are just a cracking side.

    As much as I loved the "We're Man United, we'll do what we want!" attitude that we should expect to win every game, we are a wounded animal at the moment and are far too unpredictable to be confident of going on a serious run.

    I wouldn't hold Moyes responsible for the attitude Zaha is showing at Cardiff. Yes he had a case to have an attitude at United but to carry it on down at Cardiff when getting games totally wrong.

    This was his time to be showing Moyes he did the wrong thing in letting him go out on loan and he is throwing it away.

    I was disappointed to see him go out on loan only because I've had my fill of Valencia/Young and wanted to see someone else in there and I hope one or both are gone by next season.

    It's just a thread of hope to cling on to but it should motivate the players, they should be aiming to run Arsenal close until the last day.

    Shame about Zaha,at least Janu has filled that role quite well.Give him another loan spell next year and if the attitudes the same ship him out.I doubt many coaches would want to give him a run in the PL though which could be a problem.He could go back down to the Championship and thrive but that doesn't really tell us anything.
    Best case scenario Palace stay up and he goes back there for next season.
