I'm loving the fact that the Gôons are growing restless now Utd are closing in on No20, they just can't help themselves.
To be honest I don't think it's our performances that have made this season boring. Remember the first half of the season when we would also concede and then have to come back? those games were hardly boring.
I think the season has become stale because firstly we have pretty much wrapped up the title already and secondly, we are out of the Champions League and the Fa Cup so we really don't have anything to play for anymore this season.
I've given up on us playing anything entertaining at the moment as I want to enjoy the title victory if it does come. Let's face it, winning the PL back from City was priority number one and we are close to actually achieving that
Although our football of late has been an absolute bore fest, My local went utterly ballistic when RVP scored the pen. The football we are playing is not going to tarnish the title for me whatsoever but I seriously hope we can get a ouple of players in this Summer so we can get back to playing a far more entertaining style of football next season.
Although I am a massive advocate of wanting to be entertained, at this stage of the season, I just want to see u get over the line now and look forward to next season
If we can win it early, and winning it on Sunday wouldn't be a massive shock tbh, then hopefully we can see a few fringe players getting a few games and one or two reserves getting 10 minutes here and there.
Chin up guys. Let's not tarnish the title because our football is like watching paint dry. At this stage, it's now about winning.

I can't wait for the season to end. From a Utd fan's perspective it has been horrible to see my club play worse football than Stoke City.
Winning the title this way is worse than what Graham did with Arsenal

Sir Alex used to say that winning isn't enough, you have to do it "the United way." He hasn't said that for a number of years now and I think that's because we are playing in a manner which is very un-United like. We are a hard working, grafting outfit and ruthlessly efficient. But entertainment is not something we are providing at the moment. Football is a results business though and we can't be faulted in that area.

Am I right is saying that we only had 3 shots against Stoke? I'm sure I read that stat...One of which was a pen and another a scrappy toe poke. Ruthlessly efficient, yes, but an entertaining 90 minutes? Hardly. I can accept that on occasion but it has become the norm and it's impossible to ignore that fact despite the points tally.
