United were good between November and March, rather than average. Looked shaky at the start of the season and ever since the Madrid matches, though.

Lots of underwhelming victories in that timeframe.

Kylo Ren

Come on RVP!

Paul Tergat

Great peno

PhlegmyMoses

Get in.

Great penalty. Serious pressure on him for that.

I wouldn't quite say lots but it's not unfair to say that they've coasted a bit throughout the season and on quite a few occasions, done just enough.

Butters at a guess

Stoke really don't resemble a side who are up for a relegation battle

Vidic unlucky and lucky within the same incident.

Neville saying the same but I can't see why that'd be a pen. Vidic slips and Jones trips over his body. Would be very harsh.

Slipping is irrelevant, he tripped Jones up while he was trying to get the ball.

Hopefully. It could be that they're not used to it or were not expecting it and have sleepwalked into it.

What's their remaining games?

Never in a million years did they think they'd get dragged into it IMO. Games against QPR (A) and Norwich (H) for them. Anything less than 3 points and they're goosed although I can see them getting 4 with QPR now gone.

A load of Irish fans not at the game posting about what is being chanted. Jesus wept. Of all the things those watching from their armchair have no right to really criticise.

Anyway, Rooney is looking like he is coming into some form. His passing has been slicker. Good to see. Hernandez showing some good link play too.

I go to plenty of games. Thankfully though I don't use your moral compass

Not sure it is irrelevant. He wasn't making any attempt to make a tackle and Jones has tripped over where he has fallen. I'd be surprised to see a ref give that and I'm backed up by the fact that the ref hasn't given it. Maybe it's letter of the law stuff but I wouldn't be shouting for it down the other end if it was Hernandez and Huth.

If Manchester Utd win today, then West Ham and Villa, they would only need a point against Arsenal and Van Persie would win his first title...In his first season.. At the Emirates

Lovely pass there from Shinji.

It's a Nike ball, United are sponsored by Nike.. Put 2 and 2 together and it's all a conspiracy.

The thing about Rvp is he just scores in the small games not a guy to depend on to win big games.
