It has been 360+ minutes since we've scored a goal from open play in the Premier League (that was in our first game against Swansea). Anyone who thinks there isn't a problem is either delusional or just plain naive. In our matches since Swansea away we have found it difficult to create clear goalscoring opportunities for our forwards. It has not helped that our wingers have been poor this season.
As much as Valencia has improved this season, he is still not good enough for a club of our magnitude. Same applies to Young who is just a pointless winger, the less said, the better. Cleverley came on and was by far our best player on the pitch. Really hope we will see a bit more of him over the next couple of weeks. By the way does anyone know what is happening with Zaha? I haven't seen him play this season.
Also Moyes' record in 'big' games continues to be abysmal. Optimists can't even use the argument about Moyes not having the resources to beat the top sides now that he is at Old Trafford. I think all he needs is just his first win against a top side and more will come. Still believe that Moyes is currently the right man for the job.
I predict a close race for the title, but I think with the likes of Rooney, RvP, Nani, Kagawa, Carrick etc we have enough quality to win the league.
Houston, we've got a problem

IGIM - Bomber Brown is the best Manager in Dundee (U5291) - I named two players out of a squad of 30+ players as not being good enough. How does that mean that he does not have enough quality players?

IGIM - He's already won the community shield.
Your right
Im sorry, as much as i would like him to be succeed he looks out of his depth and i cannot see him winning anything else for us before he is replaced.

I think it's a bit early days to be making comments like that to be honest.
You really would be better off if you actually gave him a bit of a chance.

we have had a crap start to the season but you a right... we cant buy a goal atm. We havent scored a goal for weeks. This is VERY concerning

Rooney sticks that easy chance away, only had to hit the target, and this article doesn't get written.

Only if chances aren't being created. That was a chance there. A decent one really.
Don't think you've got too many concerns in that regard.
