When the season started I thought we might struggle away from home against some of the better sides in the league but no way did I expect us to have one once against teams in the top nine and lose four games at home by January.
Injuries can't be used as an excuse for such a poor set of results and performances.
It's got to the stage now where I fear playing anyone at home.
Fella who? Lol.
Seriously, a good manager should be able squeeze out good performances from those players. Zaha for a game or two can't be as bad as Valencia been all season, Fabio at RB can't be as bad as Valencia or Smalling, Kagawa in the middle can't be as Danny being stuck out on the left, Buttner on the LW can't be that bad either.
We've had injury problems for years, especially around Christmas time.
Wasn't it a couple of years ago we were lining up with Fletcher and Carrick in defence...
With Young being out for a while I would hope that Zaha gets more game time.
I don't rate Zaha as highly as some, but I do feel a bit sorry for him.
He signed for United thinking he'd get to work under Fergie and now he's not even warming the bench and has to watch Young, Nani, Kagawa, Welbeck and Valencia putting in crap performance after crap performance.
I have always been so sentimental when it comes to selling United players. I used to wish all United players retired at the club, I was even a fan of Gibson till that cup game.
But now since it looks like we are stuck with the manager for now till the Glazers realise how fast the stocks are falling, I'm support of having a clear out first before going out for players.
Firstly, I would like Moyes to change tactics,
Or get rid some players like Valencia, Young, Rio, Giggs, Anderson, Buttner and promote Jesse, Powell, Angelo, Keane, Fabio and Zaha in their place.
If all fails Sign, sign, sign.
Lingard has returned from loan.
He at least deserves a chance to show what he can do I think.
Fellaini is a massive flop.
Never really understood why we got Zaha, he's good, but nothing special. This has been our problem in recent years, buying mediocrity which is often the sign of a club in decline.
Yep, I hope Lingard gets a chance. He's composed on the ball, can beat a man and has an eye for a pass and goal.
If we aren't going to sign him I'd love to see him get a run in the side.
Lingard for Young, yes please.
Fabio for Buttner, yes please.
Keane for Rio, yes please.
Powell for Anderson, yes please.
Zaha (even though I think £15m was too much) for Valencia, yes please.
Angelo for Giggs, yes please.
Charni for Mop head, yes please.
He's bloody suspended though for the game against Swansea. It'd be great to see him feature against Sunderland and with two games in less than three days, he may well do.

He's going to Cardiff on loan from what I've heard, although I won't believe anything until I see it on goal.com.
get James Wilson in the squad, he's special
Apparently, Petrucci is back. I wouldn't mind seeing him getting a run of games in the midst of Tom's uos and downs.
I really think we should try all these youngsters instead of spending another Mop head money to buy just OK players. At least 2 or 3 should defo come good.
Young being injured increases his chances as well.
Our poor wingers are having an effect on our defence as well.
I know that sounds stupid, but hear me out. We rely on Evra and Rafael to provide us with width and crosses far too much, so when they inevitably send in a crap cross (and yes Rafael's crosses aren't actually that good) and it's easily cleared they are caught too far up the pitch and it's easy for teams to break in numbers against our slow cm's and cb's.
A good winger won't solve all of our problems, but a winger that is not as reliant on our full backs to push up will give us more numbers at the back when teams do break against us.

I've seen Zaha linked with Cardiff but not Jesse although I wouldn't object to more of our young players going there.
I didn't want Ole going anywhere near that club but for loan purposes, it could be very good for us. If we want some of our youngsters to gain valuable Premier League experience, then there'd be nowhere better.
Imagine a midfield of Januzaj Pogba Cleverley Morisson, doesn't look too bad now....
Isn't Petrucci like mid-twenties now?
Cleverley would stink the place out
@Diggler, Oh, that midfield is lush! Although I'd rather Petrucci instead of Tom.
Good point @ Darren
I thought Petrucci was a right-winger? Or right-sided attacking midfielder?
Why would you wanna pick a 22 year old who has still not played a single minute of football for United over Cleverley?
Cleverley might not be the best player but he has proved far more in his career than Petrucci.
