Of all seasons to choose to go through transition do you lot think this is the best time to go through one?
I think it is. No one is running away with the title. Despite a very poor start by the clubs standard your team is only 8 points behind top spot.
Previous seasons this gap at this stage is what you'd expect from first and 3rd.
I personally thought utd were out of it after they were 10+points behind but with single digit points being the difference any of the teams in this range are capable of winning the league. Well I don't think spurs or Liverpool can but they can challenge for a good while.
Good season for utd?

TBH, if United don't win it, and at the moment its a bit of a long shot, then I'd prefer it if the season is declared null and void. Every other team that is in the mix has reasons for United fans to not want them to win the league.
Liverpool - Quite obvious, long been seen as our big rivals in the trophy stakes, don't want them to win a 1st PL trophy.
Arsenal - Don't want them to win simply because of their whining, childish, petulant, cheese eating surrender monkey mentality.
Chelsea - No. Just no.
City - Same as Chelsea really. Added to that we share a city with them.
Everton - Outsiders maybe, but at the moment they are up there. Wouldn't want them to win because Martinez has come in and been allowed to do what Moyes wasn't - pay stupid wages and spend money without the need to sell.

"pay stupid wages and spend money without the need to sell."
What you on about? The two biggest players he brought in were both loan deals, and he spent less than what he got for Felanni alone forgetting they made a few quid on Anchibe too.

Yes clearly. Just miffed because I thought they'd be midtable-ish.

I don't think United fans should worry too much about who wins the league if they don't win it. United can't win it every season. If City for example win it i wouldn't be too bothered they clearly have the strongest squad.
At the end of the day any of our rivals would have absolutely loved to have won 5 of the last 7 league titles so i don't see the point worrying too much about who might win it this season. United have won it enough in recent times to accept a year where we won't win it and still be hugely proud of our recent achievements.
I'm still not totally writing United's title challenge off for this season either. Unlikely but far from impossible.

You kidding, man utd need to snatch a title from someones grasp like chelsea did in 2010 and man city in 2012.
