      There is and always going to be a transition period at United.
      Certainly will be a transition period and it has to be remembered who he replaced, probably the greatest EPL manager we'll ever see. But that being said he does need to hit the ground running, things can fall apart pretty quickly once the fans and media turn on you.

      The Glazers are going to have to spend a bit of money on this squad as Moyes isn't Fergie or a Fergie reincarnate.

              That's all true, but he is going to get time.
              The media and some fans in particular over there are extremely fickle at the best of times.

                Very good win in the end over an 'on' Norwich at home. Jose's got to take a fair bit of the credit for his changes in formation and personel that turned the game on it's head.

                Who needs a decent CF when you have CAM's like Hazard, Mata, Schurrle, Willian, Oscar and de Bruyne running around. I am looking forward to Lukaku returning though.

                  It started with playing Defoe who is just awful up top by himself. Poor tactics IMO, WH played 4-6-0 and we still had 4 at the back. Should have changed things up and just played 3-5-2 and used the wings.

                    You guys were quite tired from your midweek EL match too apparently, did AVB not rotate the squad much?

                      I'm really keen to see Podolski back. With the way he can volley the ball, Ozil and him might do some damage between them.

                      We won't win anything but we'll do it spectacularly.
                      They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

                        Was a rubbish excuse. Only 3 or 4 players played in Europa.

                          Hoping Man Utd can get a bit of form back as we have struggled the last couple of games. At home against Southampton we should win but in saying that we played West Brom at home a few weeks back and lost. Moyes is still finding his feet which is to be expected.

                            United are getting into dangerous territory in terms of winning the Prem.

                            Going to be a few good sides missing out on UCL spots.

                              Entertaining win for Chels.

                              Finally a CF scored, Luiz with a Brian Lake like brain fade, Jose managing with the fans and scarily Mata is only our second best number 10.


                              Life's good.
