How strange is that ! last season we were simply shocking away from home just awful to watch and only won a few games.
This season we have won 11 games drawn 3 and lost only 1 scoring 34 goals and only conceding 12, and i think we've won 3 games 0-5 on our travels now. Fulham, Bolton and Wolves.
Our home form (in the league) is not exactly bad either we have also won 11 games but of course we've lost twice.
I noticed also that we've now scored 73 goals which is now more than City.
So with our brilliant away from i don't have any fears about going to City soon, i think we will get a point out of that game. You never know, the humiliation of the 1-6 might even spur Utd into getting a win there. (that's not a prediction)
Strange though how our away form has suddenly changed from being awful to brilliant.
Away form better than home form

both milner and richards should have bee sent off at 0-0 in the game at old trafford, and valencia was denied a stone wall penalty in the cup game, so we're due some decisions against city.

Also did you know this is the most amount of goals (73) Utd or any side for that matter have scored since the Premier league began at this stage of the season.
It's also the most United have scored in 29 games since the year of the Munich air disaster.

I think we got one in the cup, Kompany red card was but iffy but it was dangerous and both footed studs up.
Stupid challenge, only because Nani jumped it didn't cause serious injury.

If United win our last 9 games (not impossible looking at the fixture list) we will end up with 97 points. A PL record total. Even if we draw at Maine Road we end up with 95, to equal the record. Yes I know the standard of the PL is lower than it used to be... but this current squad is much better than many give it credit for.

rules of the game say that it was the correct call, i don't think it deserved a red, but rules are rules so it was in no way a dodgy decision and we are thererfore still owed some luck against the matalan wearing ones.

I think we will drop a few points, i don't actaully think we will beat City, i think that'll be a draw.
I worry about Sunderland away last game of season, that's a tough tough game. But with our away form we shouldn't fear that game too much.

It really peeves me off that idiots think this is the worst United team Fergie has built in his tenure, I think there's quality in every part of it bar the centre of the park. I rate Carrick highly and Pogba/Clevs too, but we do need that certain playmaker to make the squad perfect.

Can Pogba be that player ? i am loving seeing him finally breaking into the side.
He looks classy, i hope we get that contract sorted before end of season.
I'd be gutted if he goes, but at end of day if he doesn't want to be here then best he goes.
But i have feeling he is staying otherwise NO CHANCE Fergie would be giving him games, he'd be dumped into reserves and wouldn't even get games there either.
