I don't know if I'm the only United fan but I'd much rather City win it
----------------
Mainly because last year, Toure and Kompany were *not* on form, and every year it seems Silva (who I would put as the EPL's best) and Aguero get an injury and City drop points because of it.
proly because in certain patches last year they were absolute pony, and people are desperate to use that as a measurin stick.
Youre however correct, they are very good.
Whilst I dont rate sterling anywhere near as much as most I will concede he has bought them a good balance to their side now.
If chelsea suffer injuries this term, city will probably comfortably pick up the trophy come may.
Silva is best player in league for me. Aguero obviously will score a lot more goals but Silva makes them tick.
Im not suprised:

Are people surprised?? I don't recall pele writing city off. Many expected it to be out of city and Chelsea for the title, which it still will be come May.
Seriously, if you swapped Silva and Januzaj, who would say United would not be 3 from 3 and City might have struggled in their 3 games?
Aside from him and Aguero, none of their other players have really stood out for me. They are good defensively, but not any better than United so far. And they still have players that are brutal, imagine if they get a quality player to replace Navas? He misses at least a sitter every game.
Our 1st choice midfield and 2nd choice midfield is better then any other teams 1st choice midfield. Thats our strength.

Its true though, the reason why teams have virtually no shots against us especially since LVG came is because no team can get near our goal because they can't get the ball, bit like Barcelona in there prime.
Our next 2 opponents we should probably manage 75% possession as Swamsea and Liverpool are two teams who struggle to retain ball.
Remember Manchester derby, Man City last league defeat, they struggled to get out of there own box. MOTD people even did analysis showing we basically outnumbered Man City midfield in every part of the pitch meaning they struggled to get out own half as they had no outlet.
Hafi for god sake man give it up.
Swansea are one of best ball retention teams team too you plank. Come on, who do you really support.

2nd half especially. Anyway Man City strength is goalkeeper Attack and slightly there defense and midfield. They seem to only strengthened defence and attack so there weak ageing midfield will mean they will creak.

Im so hungover im basically still drunk and this just cracked me up God bless you hafi.
Since November 8th 2014 we only conceded 23 goals the least by any side. That means 31 league games 23 goals conceded.
Yes but how many passes have we completed in that time, that is the question we all need an answer to.
Genuine question to utd fans...
do you guys think LVG going to sign any more players? if yes, who would be realistic target?
Probably buy Oscar from Chelsea for 100m knowing us.
I see the Haftron 5000 is in full working mode this morning
I would say it is malfunctioning somewhat.
Goalkeeper defence midfield we are considerably stronger then Man City. Its just in clinical attackers Man City are streets ahead.
