@Jeff – I don’t think this performance is worthy of a praise to be honest. You really think with this defence, United can pose a serious title threat and get far in Europe? These are the dark times.
Think back at the last time we steam-rolled the opposition.
You can say 8-2 against Arsenal, but that was the weakest Arsenal squad we ever faced and still, we weren’t even that convincing. We still managed to concede 2 goals.
For a dominating United performance, you’d have to look 3-4 years back.
Something’s gotta improve

United is never good enough for Pies. We can win 7-0 with 97% possession and you’re still going to write “Oh, United beat them 6-0 but they must improve if they really want to win the title”. Remember that last year City won the premier league on goals difference and only because United was very, very, VERY poor on the final stages. It was not really because City was such a great team. Also, we’re without Vidic and for some time Carrick/Valecia played in defence and we’ve still managed the get 3 points. Please tell me one team in the world that has the ability to turn around a game like Man United.
