Yea to be honest they have proved me wrong, thought they would be shite without Ronaldo but they have been just as good without him.
Pity i cant say the same about Liverpool. I dont know what has happened this season. I have never seen a Liverpool team play with so little imagination or drive to win. We are playing like a mid table team. Yesterdays performance against Blackburn was awful. Pretty much one good chance against a poor Rovers team is an absolute disgrace. People can blame the injuries to top players but that is no excuse. Bad team selections, ridiculous substitutions and general mismangament is what I think the problem is.
Its like Benitez is making all these daft decisions on purpose to get his big payoff that our owners cant afford, seeing how far he can push them till they say enough is enough.
I for one have always said that Benitez is a bad manager and Liverpool are in need of a change. Fans always say firing him now would just send the club into more chaos, whereas I think it would be for the better. It couldnt get much worse. It wouldnt be so bad if we actually playing some decent football but its so boring and ineffective that I feel a change is definitely in order.
And if Aquilani doesnt play against Fiorentina, I am not watching another game this season!!! :;

what has really made me think is this.
ronaldo has not been the same player he was at united at real madrid.
ferguson brought out the best in him and nurtured his talent and confidence.
cheers 'tron :)
united looked good again on saturday, we seem to be moving through the gears now, shame that we no defenders fit though
watched city against chelsea, felt wrong wanting to city to get a result but it was a good game, plenty of drama
i heard gerrard took a dive in the blackburn game, the incident doesn't seem to have attracted much media attention though
Numeric
aye, the united / city rivalry has flourished since the start of the season
the only reason i mention gerrard is because the english media are always up in arms when a foreign player takes a dive, and yet again, when gerrard does it they turn a blind eye, it's a joke
Numeric
my critisism was aimed more at the british media than gerrard
but yeah, you have a point
Numeric
to be honest, your not. i said you would struggle without ronaldo and tevez and that seems to be the case so far.imo.
struggle?
2nd in the league, three points off the top
qualified for the second round of the champions league with two games to spare
still in both domestic cup competitions
if we're struggling, i'd love to hear your opinion on how liverpool are doing
Numeric
how awesome has rooney been recently?
why won't he play Gibson?
united have come a little unstuck since my above comments :ohdear:
rooney has been class though
not sure about gibson, he's scored a few belters but his overall game leaves a lot to be desired
Numeric
well man utd to be fair have had a very random season from the start. I'm not convinced about Gibson sometimes he is world-class next time he's like a pub player.
Rooney is sensational. He was what made Ronaldo look good. I think Real will try and buy him. Fergie relying now on players he hasn't appreciated properly for the last four years, Scholes, Giggs, (they can't play 90 minutes week in week out)
i think Ferguson is enough of a game player to make it look like he wanted to win the Leeds game whilst putting out a team that would garantee they would be out, and with fresh legs for the premiership and the champions league. What hurts is that they have to throw the game, Rooney knows this without it having to be told. Hence the misses. Quite dark football these days.
Prob few people having a 1-0 to Leeds bet, prob good odds. all part of it.
it has been a strange season thus far, not sure what to make of united at the moment
i don't think we need to worry too much about rooney leaving
there seems to be a lot of rumours about vidic though
