three teams u decide 1994 1999 2008. which wud u say ticked all the boxes
Never thought much about the 2008 team but £#%&! me it was good the top 3 and yes I include that complete @#%&! in the three were almost unplayable. The 99 team reached heights we will probably never see again and the 94 team were probably in my time the first really complete and great team we had since I first went in 78. I'm still undecided but for sheer man for man and £#%&! u attitude I'd go for 94.

Has to be our current 2013 vintage for me. It really covers all the bases from gutless shit@#%&!s stealing a living at the top level to players who should have retired 2 years ago.
The football is an eclectic mix of slow-as-£#%&! predictable shit, even slower predictable shit and unpredictable shit with comedy prat falls thrown in. These are really halcyon days. |

1994 is my favourite team ever tbh - a top player in every position, an 11 that rolls off the tongue, pacey wingers and a team that could fight you just as much as it could beat you (Schmeichel, Bruce, Ince, Keane, Hughes, Cantona, Robson on the bench). |

Brown was phenomenal in 2008. If you judged him just on that year rather than as a player as a whole then I think he stands up against the rest of the defence. |

It's a very tough question, tbh. The starting line-ups for '94 and '99 just pick themselves, but the '08 squad had a lot more depth, as well as the world's best player.
'94 is probably my favourite United side ever, but the lack of European success means you probably have to class both '99 and '08 above them, regardless of the 3 foreigner role. '99 possibly edge '08 for me, just because they did the Treble, and also because they had a core of homegrown players, which is what United should be all about. Imagine a team made up of '94's attack, '99's midfield and '08's defence. |

I know what you mean though, that's why I always think of that side as my favourite rather than the best. Clearly the 1999 and 08 teams were better. Still £#%&!ing scandalous that Bruce never got an England cap though, which Bobby Robson apologised to him for apparently. |
