In 2002 United were nowhere near as good, conceding goals for fun in a defence that had the ancient Laurent Blanc in it...whist we're talking about teams that finished 3rd, United also finished 3rd that season whilst conceding about 50 goals.

We had about twice as many chances as them but our defence was absolutely shite that season
Won the league by double digit points but still conceded something like 51 goals
Also in that game Karanka cleared a ball that was goal bound over the cross bar with his hand at only 0-1
Should have been a pen and a red card which would have completely changed the game but funnily enough the media barely mentioned it
now if the boot was on the other foot....
