So what you're saying is it was ok when you were the big boys spending 25-30m on Veron, Rio, Berbatov, Rooney etc but now someone else is spending more it's not fair.

You bought a 25m striker last week and are paying him almost 200k a week. You'd have bought a 25-30m midfielder too if PSG hadn't outbid you. But i guess that would've been ok.

Difference between United and City's spending is that United earnt their money over a massive amount of years, no random takeover and sugar daddying.... City got given a gift and spent hugely. Success is success, but it's a bit hollow when you have to spend 400m+ to do so.

No one comes out of this thread with any credit I think.

I'm embarrassed by the United fans. Whinging about a side that raises their game against United? Whinging about referee errors, as if we don't get any?

We were beaten by the better team. Want to blame someone? Ask Ferguson why Vidic wasn't marking Fellaini on corners.

Having said that, look at the non United fans on here. People say the ABU thing is a myth, but you don't see people wetting themselves with excitement when anyone else loses like this.

There are Liverpool fans on here, who seem happy with the weekend because United lost - with their 3-0 humping at the hands of West Brom a non-thought.

Perhaps you'll blame the stupid United fans on here for your behaviour, but ur both as bad as eachother I think.

Our replacements have come in and done so well that the lines are blurred now but defensively there is no better squad in the league.

In attack we have rooney, as good as anyone in the league, chicharito, berbatov- the leading scorer last year, owen, welbeck. No other side has that depth of quality. These are facts.

we have the best set of wide players in the league in nani/valencia and young.

City look to be next in line but they boast neither the riches in attack nor defence.

Biscuit, what is quite funny is you're not sharp enough to see you're proving my point for me every post you make.

City only just won the title last yr even though utd had by far worse injuries. Do you honestly think mourinho would not have had that wrapped up long before the last 30seconds of the season were he at the helm?

Trust me when I say I am pleased mancini is the one in charge. Of all the managers in world football they could have he is someone that would be high on my list. Of course they can succeed with him but that does not change anything I said.

I know this concept is very hard for you to follow but yes, given that money to spend I have no doubts that countless managers could have done as good, and better than mancini. No doubt whatsoever. I am happy with him in situ rather than a mourinho, a hiddink etc

The managers just focus on not conceding and leave everything up to the players. Guys like [Fabio] Capello and [Jose] Mourinho are hailed as geniuses because they win. Well, they win because they have the best players, not because of what they do. I could put my dead grandfather in charge of their teams and they would still win.”

Amazing thread, I had no idea how stupid some united fans were

Carrick - wouldnt get in any other top 8 side in the country
Anderson - wouldnt get in a top 12 side in the country
Cleverly - decent but needs help
Scholes - one of the top 3 players in the premiership over the past 20yrs, is clearly on his last legs, his performance the other night was a shadow of his greatness, he couldnt cope.

Yes we have Gibson in our midfield, and he is limited, but he allows Felli to play. Carrick is shocking and Anderson is a sunday league player.

United fans should demand more, their central midfield is not as good as it needs to be.

Their full backs are pretty average too
They will be top 3, but they wont win the league without strengthening their weak areas

As for Everton and the initial post, for about 10years we barely ever won a game live on sky, we were rank. Recently we've stepped up. Most of the past 5 / 6 seasons from Jan to May we've been the 3rd best team in terms of points, problem is august to dec we are 3rd worst.
Its nothing to do with sky or the so called big teams, its pre xmas, post xmas.
The one season it didnt happen we finished 4th.

You are right there, midefield not as good as it needs to be, yet we still managed to nearly win the league last year and won it previously before that with them players. we have got kagawa now so he will be our attacking talent for that midfield. You say we should expect more, in all honestly everton fans should expect more, how many years since you have won something is it? Ok give me the moyes has done a brilliant job, but if 10-20 even further in the future you win nothing then to say united fans should expect more is madness.  If you are satisfied then good for you, im pretty sure players and staff would not be deep down

We have no money, we have a chairman who in 10 years has put exactly £0.00 into the club
We want more but until we are bought out we are stuck, half the fans love the chairman and think he is wonderful, the other half want him gone, but we know that any potential buyers have long since moved on, the guys who bought city, looked at us before buying city, but the chairman didnt want to sell then, so they went down the M62 instead. Without a buyer we're screwed, we can develop kids and sell them and hope to improve with the money, like Jeffers, Rooney, Rodwell, and there will be more.

United fans dislike their owners, but they have spent, and united has wealth far beyond what we have it generates far more.
So expectations are different

I have nothing against united, each time they win something it allows me to take the piss out of my kopite mates, I just think to compete to win the title and champions league, which are uniteds aims, then another central midfielder is needed.

I think RVP is a good signing, it enables him to rotate Rooney and RVP when needed. But I'd have gone for a midfield giant first. Kagawa is good, but its someone like Keane, Viera, Toure, Essein, Makalele, that united seem to lack.

A fit fletcher is that man, remains to be seen if he can go back to he was. Maybe the right player has not become available or fergie thinks this bunch can step up. We competed last year and lost by 90 seconds. Champions league was a blip, prior to that we been to majority of finals in recent years, and if not for barca with this taka taka we may have gave them a game.

Too many united fans expect too much sometimes with what we have one last 20 years you would think people would be happy. end of the day football is 11 men against 11 on the pitch and anything can happend just like betting to be honest. We have not finished lower than 3rd in the premier league since it began and majority of times have been 1st and 2nd a few times. Expectations of course is to win, but you can't win them all at times.

Everton have a very good team and im sure they will all be there for this year at least, what expectations do you have? You have beaten man united so if you can do that you can proberly beat alot of other teams.
