    Convinced that the editors on MOTD are on crack, the highlights of the Newcastle Vs Norwich game made it look like Newcastle were the worst side, after watching the entire game online last night I know that this was not the case.

          They may have just been taking pity on the Canaries…..

            Sergio Ramos had been sent off for Real Madrid against Galatasaray tonight - his 17th dismissal for the club! Incredible…

                The way Arsenal is playing is sublime. Ramsey continues to score for fun. 7 point lead at the top of the table.

                We still aren't good enough to win a cup, but the League is within reach.

                    Anyone is good enough to win a cup dude, just down to how you perform on the day. The league never lies, whoever sits on the top of the heap at the end of the season is rightly the best team, and currently I think Arsenal are the best team.

                    Ramsey has been an absolute revelation this season, and I don't think that anyone (including Wenger) saw it coming.

                          Colleague at work as he was leaving: "Stoke won 3-2". "You're joking??" "No, they scored in the last minute."

                          Checked my phone… Blimey... That's the 2nd time that Stoke has beaten Chelsea since 1975.

                          So today has been improved somewhat :). Watch it all go wrong next week.

                          And much glee was had by the non-United fans.

                              Some great results over the weekend (Mega, MP)! And the Canaries got an excellent away win too. Really enjoying watching Utd struggle, Europa League for them next season would be hilarious.

                                They will struggle to get the Europa league place, I think that the top 7 as it stands now will be the top 7 at the end, only the order might change. And honestly I think that every one of those 7 teams (Southampton are a bit of an anomaly) are currently much better than Man U.

                                Manchester United are currently like a run down stately home, obviously people can see how grand they once were but to restore them to their former glory is going to take a lot of time and even more money. I'm not convinced that the current owners will want to invest what is required either.

                                  On their current form I reckon you could be right, even if they typically finish very strong they're already falling too far behind. Even if they did wanna spend any money it could be way too late come the transfer window.

                                    I agree with mega, even as a united fan, firstly I was disappointed at the successer to the gaffer. But it's really hard to see any European competition at all given Moyes tinkering bullshit.

                                      Louis, I think Sir Alex knew that the team was on the decline last year. Even though they won the title at a canter the team lacks the quality of previous years and there is much money needed to be spent. I think SAF won the title for them last year, simply because he was the greatest manager there has ever been (yes, I can admit that), but knowing that lack of investment was going to be a problem he chose a great time to retire.

                                      On Moyes, I think he's a good manager but I worry that he found his level at Everton and that is as good as he is ever going to be, time will tell. When you lose the guy who is the absolute best there has ever been then anyone else will be an inevitable step down.

                                        United were looking for continuity, ie a natural heir to Ferguson (or in reality, a second rate version) when perhaps they should have been brave enough to realise that Ferguson was a one-off and a change of direction was required.

                                          Unless they believe that he wasn't a one off, but was put in that position by the environment in which he worked, in which case Moyes seems the perfect choice for continuity. I don't believe that but maybe the powers at Man Utd (including Fergie) did.
