Where the hell do I start with this game. Predictions were all about the United away record against the top 6 and whether Arsenal could find a way round the United bus. As it turned out there was no bus but instead a huge wall by the name of David De Gea who was quite … Read more
Midweek premier league football is back this week and I am one who thinks there is not enough of it. There is a full fixture list to be played in what is probably the start of the long slog into the New Year and for United the run of three crucial games. Watford will be … Read more
At last!!! The attacking intent returned to Old Trafford last Saturday evening, another 4 goals which could easily have been more, the return of Paul Pogba and Zlatan Ibrahimovic and more importantly 3 points. This would have been curtains for the title race had Newcastle clung on to their early lead, especially after the City … Read more
United’s result at Stamford Bridge seems a lifetime ago due to the international break but may have given Jose Mourinho the chance to re-evaluate the last few weeks. To my surprise, he was quite upbeat following the defeat to his former club, but on reflection surely he can see just how poor his side were. … Read more
As we reach yet another international break, United remain in 2nd position, albeit 8 points adrift of City and although performances have not been of the highest quality throughout it has to be seen as an improvement from the past 4 seasons. Jose Mourinho has spent a fortune creating a squad that is hopefully once … Read more
A win is a win in what was a huge game for United. The game versus spurs was a pretty dull affair in truth, with the defensive strengths of both sides on top but then again the attacking threat from both sides was very poor so defences did not have to work too hard. Mourinho … Read more
It was no surprise to see Jose Mourinho revert back to 4 at the back nor his decision to rest a number of players with the Chelsea game coming up on Sunday. The game 2 weeks ago was as easy as it gets in the Champions League so Mourinho would have been confident of sending … Read more
I don’t want to say I told you so, but I did. In my last preview 3 weeks ago, I said that United’s clash with Crystal Palace would be easy enough but then the real challenges begin. I then wrote a piece looking more closely at the unbeaten start to the season for both Manchester … Read more
As the second, boring international break hits the Premier League, just like with the first, United sit at the league’s summit. However this time round they share that spot with their nearest rivals City. Barring a solitary goal, they can not be divided but how do their starts really compare and how closely matched are … Read more
I said one of them would slip up, but none of them did. The top 6 all recorded victories last weekend meaning no change at the top other than goal difference. City, once more, smashed 5 goals, Chelsea surprisingly ran out comfortable winners away at Stoke and the other 4 all made hard work of … Read more
