Moyes doesn't deserve time because City have a banner up about him?

Don't panic. I'm sure he'll be sacked in the morning once the Board see rival fans laughing at him.

No, because of all the other reasons that I have given for the past 6 months. But there are some that will feel sorry for him cause his mug is used in that fashion.

How is it any way deserved? Making a mockery of the man is completely out-of-line.

I'm all for a joke at our expense, but that's classless..

Guess we're officially a laughing stock.

I doubt the city fans are feelin too good right now either. Despite the scoreline, they were well beaten in their own back yard by Chelsea tonight.

Let's hope for a convincing performance against Fulham. We can't change how badly we've played so far but it's not beyond the realms of possibility for us to start improving some bit. We can't really play much worse than we have been.

Worst case scenario we might get some individual brilliance from RVP, Rooney, Mata, Januzaj to nick us a few points.

Ah, come on now. It may seem churlish, but it's hardly out of line.
Plenty of United fans (myself included) took the piss out of rival managers during bad spells eg Benitez, Mancini, Hughes, Hodgson.
There's no point trying to claim the moral high-ground here.

First of all, he said the players who have been there 7 or 8 years may want a change of scenery. It was a sensationalist headline, but I doubt you even read the headline as your post was twice as sensationalist as said headline, so I really don't know what you were at with that post.

Oh for god's sake lighten up.

Nobody here is putting the blame solely on the weather. However there is absolutely nobody out there that can tell me it didn't have a negative effect on the game as a whole.

Never said it didn't have an effect on the game.I mentioned how United beat Stoke in similar conditions in early December so putting it forward as an excuse doesn't wash.

Moaning about other fans putting up banners, Jesus Christ. It's part of football and City's banner is tame enough.

It's banter between clubs. Same with 90% of the banners around the stadium.

Making a mockery of a man can hardly be considered banter.

It won't be there for long, like how long do you think it'll take the man too win a few titles?

If he continues with these tactics, I don't see him winning much for the remainder of his career.

The squad, the staff, the tactics, the attitude, all need to change if we want to compete next season.

That's nothing, thousands of United fans at Old Trafford regularly sing Wenger pedophile chants.

Think Ferguson even pleaded with fans to stop.

What im saying is that fans take it way too far trying to humiliate managers who are generally decent men who are in a severely pressurised job. They are under way more stress than players and dont deserve to be made fools of.

Were you on here outraged when Wenger was being called a pedophile by United fans?

F.J.

The away fans were singing fcuk off Mourinho a few weeks back at Stamford Bridge.Don't recall anyone getting wound up over that.

You know not all manager are shrinking violets right?

Moyes would over heard and seen a lot worse when he was Everton manager and panicking the fans the couple of times he had them down around the relegation places.

Tom Thorpe returns to Manchester United after injury on Birmingham debut



Birmingham's on-loan defender Tom Thorpe has returned to parent club Manchester United for treatment after sustaining ankle ligament damage on his debut.

Thorpe arrived at St Andrew's on transfer deadline day on a deal until the end of the season and duly made his bow in Saturday's home clash against Derby.

However, the centre-back lasted just 15 minutes of the 3-3 draw before leaving the field on a stretcher, adding to Blues' defensive woes following the loan recalls of Kyle Bartley and Dan Burn.

It remains to be seen how long Thorpe, 21, will remain on the sidelines, although City will be kept updated on his progress.

Manager Lee Clark told the club's official website: "We're devastated for him.

"He's a terrific kid and we were absolutely delighted to get someone of his quality. Manchester United rate him so highly and he's been a brilliant lad."

Gotta feel for him having just joined the club. Poor lad.

I watch them a bit and imo there isn't anyone standing out who is ready,anyone who is closer to a step up is out on loan.
Good players but no one ready yet but I would have said the same this time last year about Adnan.

No

I like Klopp

Andreas Pereira looks like a great prospect

Watching Hazard play this season is painful for a UTD fan. He is really good. It pains me to know he rejected us over Chelsea.

I was referring to 2012 when UTD, Chelsea and City were all in for him and he had his pick of the clubs. Saying that your point still stands.

Fergie made some bizarre signings towards the end of his time at the helm. Bebe, Buttner, Young and Val replacing CR7. He also stayed inactive at times. Giggs and Scholes not getting replaced.

Nothing will take away from what he achieved but he could have made the team much much stronger over the past 3-4 years, yes we won trophies in those years but we played poor football and were given more than one lesson in Europe.

Moyes is dealing with the hangover and not dealing very well. Moyes may have had too much faith in the squad and UTDs reliance of width coming into the job.

Nalz

No

Young and Valencia weren't bizarre. Ones been below par consistently and the other had two decent spells of form, was a beast at times.

Buttner, meh squad backup fullback...Ritchie De laet style

Bebe, once off freaky thing!!! :-)
