Indeed.

Imagine the meeting when a writer pitches that script to a film producer.

Football eh? Bloody Hell

Ruud Van Nistelrooy retires from the game. Probably up there with one of my fave players for United.

Sorry poor phrasing.

I would say, in no particular order:

Robson
Ronaldo
Van Nistelrooy
Keane
Cantona

Was a big fan of Hughes and loved Paul Ince but when they sign/manage your rivals in ruins the affection you can have for a player

In times of disappointment it's good to turn back and look at moments of pure pleasure

It was a bittersweet pill to swallow yesterday but as many have pointed out- we've done it to teams time and time again. It was almost surreal watching it. I mean I'd completely written us off. Thought Man City would beat them 6-0 and we wouldn't have a shot but to lose it in that way was like getting your money in bad, only to get there on the turn then get redraw on the river.

In a way, I'm glad we've lost. I cannot believe this team has 89 points. Maybe I'm doing the team a dis-service but we've not anywhere near as good as the Red Machine in the 90's early 00's.

Let's buy a couple of decent midfielders and still think we need a striker.

Postives, despite his start to the season, De Gea looks the real deal. Vidic will be back next year and hopefully Jones and Smalling will continue to flourish. For me Nani can go- much prefer Valencia and Young

best post you've ever written on this thread George

We got 89 points by being Manchester United. We won games that we played poorly in and we won some with some great football. It seems a long time ago, but the 8-2 vs Arsenal will live on in the memory for a long time.
We lost the League through some very un-Manchester United slip-ups. Losing to Blackburn at home for one. Conceding a 2 goal lead to Everton at home. Obviously no single event results in the final position, but that single dropped point ...
