I still fancy City for the title. They got the right man for the job it seems, unlike United.

It could pan-out to be the weakest ever defence of the title, i know City were joyfully told they held that distinction when finishing 11 points adrift last yr..Have any defending champions ever failed to hit top 4 in the history of the premiership?
 
I think Moyes has perhaps aimed for mid table, so long has he been doing so. The team may confound him and reach the top five, but I think top six is even doubtable.

We are undone. Happens to all great teams, but the passing of Fergie has certainly taken its toll. I would be happy to see City romp home with a goal fest. They are entertaining, and seem to have the ingrained fighting spirit so many teams lack. Might seem cynical, but I reckon Moyes was a mistake, and doubt even Alex can hope to persuade against his removal sooner rather than later. I wish United had got hold of Mourinho. The only thing that might swing it for United is a lot of spending, but they should think about spending on management as a priority.
 
This can all be laid at the feet of Fergie, he only won the title last time around because the other teams were weak and complacent. He has only signed a couple of great players in the last 5+ years and it shows. FWIW i think UTD will finish 6th or 7th.

Do Trafford spend monies on players, thought they grew all thiers in little plant pots on the window sill...the way they accuse other teams of ruining the job (convienantly forgetting non football monies bought them old Trafford) Their more than a little creative with the newly raised 200mills, bizarrely the debts gone down by exactly the same amount (the cake and the eat), it's been said if they don't top4-it for more than 1 season then the debt can be called, their gambling (such is a life down the plc route), just like they did when whiskeynose was chatting 'no value in the market' (zab/Kompany/hart and clichy were available for just over £20mills and Merlin was 3mills cheaper than Fellani :shock:) ...I think someone's pork-pieing-it meself, roy the boy will put it all reet when he releases his new book i'm sure.
 
24 pages talking about that Trafford lot.... blimey!
