[Asuka's Gonna Kill You]

Who was it in this thread that scoffed at the idea of Moyes being sacked before his contract was up back when he was appointed?

Probably JohnnyPerfect.

Yeah, I think it was.

Haven't seen him post in this thread for awhile.

Despite me posting on the previous page? Makes sense.

The only thing I did regarding Moyes was laughing at Ant when he mentioned him getting sacked by Christmas.

[EddieG]

1954 is the last time a Chelsea player scored a HT against Man U.

Moyes keeps making history.

[MJB]

Tbf, everyone laughs at Ant.

Well, I apologise.

I think Moyes' biggest mistake was clearing out Fergie's staff. That was baffling.

[MJB]

Oh dear me. Not our day.

Probably shoulda sacked him by Christmas.

[brenchill]

In all seriousness, if they keep Moyes on for next season and they are 7th at Christmas, they are in deep shit.

Rooney will be gone, they'll be another season without the CL and you will have a board that have no interest in investing money in players.

[MDK]

On the plus side for United at least their away fans wont have far to travel home.

[Dan]

Man Utd will never be the force they where. The don't have the huge spending power and the one big/quality signing they made recently will be 31 this year.

No way can the keep up with City or Chelsea financially, I see them turning into another Liverpool after they declined a few decades ago.

This is with or without Moyes, unless they get a new owner who is willing to spunk out the kind of money the big two do.

Hell, why didn't they go for Ozil?

[MDK]

What a goal!

[Sam]

Chicha gets his traditional goal against Chelsea.

[MJB]

Hernandez again!

[brenchill]

The comeback is on!!!!

[MJB]

This is why Hernandez should play instead of Welbeck. In the first half, he'd have been in the six yard box while Welbeck was waiting for the cut-back.

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

I wonder when the last time was that we were 6 points ahead of Man Utd mid way through January...

[Baddar]

But Welbeck runs a lot!

[MJB]

Red card?

Didn't look like one in real-time.

On replay, however.

[Baddar]

Lol, straight red.

Couldn't compete with a huge side like us

EDIT: on a side note I think that "not the same Man U" excuse is a cop out. Does that mean we can't call this team champions, since fergie isn't there? Like, this team aren't anywhere near as good as the team that won the champions league, and fergies gone, if it's not the same Man U, does that mean we can say Man U haven't ever won anything? After all, it's a dfferent Man U. Just seems stupid to me.

Luiz gets to run around smashing into players all match gets one booking. Vidic does it in final few minutes gets a red. Consistency.
