Re: Football Season 2014/15
Pleased at Swansea getting a result but I can't see LVG being the right man for United. OK he's better than Moyes but his brand of slow, hoof-it-up-to-Fellaini football does not suit United. I'm not at the "LVG out" stage yet but if United don't get top-4 this season then he'll have to pull a rabbit out of a hat to keep the fans on his side.
People talk about one defeat in 19 games but most of that was due to misfiring opposition and luck rather than good performances. LVG reckoned this morning that United were the best team in the league - I've been a fan since 1985 and even though he's brought some top quality players in I can only ignore complete delusion for so long. Put United against a full-strength Chelsea at Stamford Bridge and only De Gea would be able to prevent a complete bloodbath.

Yes if MU don't get top 4 then the pressure is going to grow considerably on LVG unless he wins the FA Cup.

Re: Football Season 2014/15
Just this minute got home from a trade conference in Coventry so only just seen the score.
I have yet to see a full 90 minutes of decent football at OT this season and top four will be pushing it the way they are performing.
Plus my daughter had our very first grandchild on Tuesday so have had other things to think about.

Re: Football Season 2014/15
Yes football is not that important sometimes in the scheme of things and congratulations on your first grandchild iadom.

Absolutely. Nobody deserve Europe from riding their luck. If United did it under SAF he'd turn on the hairdryer and ensured the team worked their rear-ends off in subsequent games, it's almost as if he took it as personal insult if games were won by the opposition getting it wrong rather than United playing well.
LVG seems to be lazy enough to sit back and accept "a win is a win" and leave it at that. Not the Man United way.

Re: Football Season 2014/15
It seems Tottenham Hotspur has making a great attempt at being London's worst Premier League side today.

Re: Football Season 2014/15
How the **** did they manage to rescue a point? By diving for a penalty. Poor West Ham.
