If you base your game on the percentages and the small margins, this is what it looks like. No one can deny that mou is effective, but it's by no means good to watch and smacks of small-time for a club of utds stature. I imagine few other supporters now relish the utd fixture as the 'big one' as they once nearly all did.

I truly hope I'm wrong, but I've nothing at all to base it on
Oh, believe me they still do. And that is part of the problem - the effort some teams put in against us compared to when they played city did stand out a bit at times

In the games against us, they and many of the other lower teams, have had the stand out player/s on the day.

Done. I hope you’re right because I spend a lot more money watching this pile of shit than £50.

Well this is true also. Naively, seeing as this was apparently the job he'd craved all his career, I was hoping we might get a revitalised Mourinho and we would get performances similar to his first Chelsea and Inter teams, which both played fantastic football. We haven't, by a long £#%&!ing stretch.

I genuinely don’t think changing managers again is the right thing but at the same time I find united under mo hugely depressing.

If we improve significantly next season then fair do’s but it’s really got to step up a lot.

United had been hugely depressing for a couple of decades. PLC. Glazers. What they’ve done to the stadium and support. Fergie glossed over that. Now it’s laid bare.

I was massively depressed about United in '99 tbf.

For the first time in my life, I have little to no interest in watching us. Haven't watched any of the past 3 games and feel like I did myself a favour. Thank Christ there's only one game left.

city will do what they always do the season following a title win and get nowhere near retaining it. remember that everyone called their 2012 side, then their 2014 side, the greatest premier league side ever, who were going to dominate for the next decade.

they pissed the league this year, but so did the last two title winning chelsea sides and they then collapsed.

Dunk, Duffy, Bruno and Bong.

Best (named) defence in the league.

I've not quite reached that stage yet General, but 1 shot on goal in what people are calling a dead rubber or a testimonial is unheard of.

It is torture to watch though. Boring, tedious, dire, wretched regimented, sterile, predictable, negative, soporific, mind-numbing coma-inducing. Can someone get a thesaurus and carry on.
