said it before, Salah should be a united player, perfect for our right hand side, 17 goals for a winger is world class for a season. He has 17 and not even in December

He's having a good season, no doubt.

Mahrez looked a worldie in the title winning team.

As did countless others over the years.

4 months of a season does not a worldie make.

Nope. He was one of Romas best players. 14 and 15 Serie A goals in his two seasons there and a total of 34 in 83 games in all competitions.

wanderer100

5 minutes added time and they score on the fifth minute on the dot.....

Jayop

96th minute with 5 minutes shown. Was there a big stoppage?

jayo26

You can't stop that they just playing best football in the league and deserve to be there.

It was only 10 seconds into the 95th minute to be fair they were attacking so ref couldn't blow it up.

At some stage it starts becoming a little more than luck. For years we benefited from goals in fergie time.

Sterling is having some impact this season.

Relax, only a third of the season gone! Ridiculous carry on.

nullzero

Just when the league looked like becoming interesting.

How has Pep Guardiola managed to take this group of rag tag journeymen to this level of footballing brilliance? The man in either a genius or a miracle worker.

Schwanz

They've got 4 extra points late this week. Plenty of time to catch them but we'll need 4 points from Arsenal & City at least coming up.

500m spent on players helps a lot

It is ridiculous when you put it like that but City are showing no signs whatsoever of dropping form any time soon. They are constantly getting wins after wins after wins in all games big or small. It is only November but they are looking like running away with the title at this rate.

If we drop points at Arsenal (which is a big possibility) and lose against City (even bigger possibility), we are out of it imo despite it only being 'a third of the season gone.'

Jog on. Number 21 is on the way

J. Marston

Even with Chelsea in 04-05, 05-06, it didn't feel this futile.

If we're serious about winning the league which is what we all want, we need to be beating the top sides. 4 points is alright but 6 points is what we need if we want to challenge City. Big 2 games

nullzero

I think you'll find they've spent more than double that over the last few years.

Like I said, it's a miracle they're doing so well this season.

jayo26

All I'll say is if mourinho did that......

J. Marston

Lets not start acting like we're paupers.

Honestly, with they money that's been invested into that club they should have won the league every year for the last seven years.
I'd be delighted to see the wheels fall off, obviously because city have no business being in the position they find themselves in these days but perhaps more so to do with the fact that Guardiola is a manager who has had every advantage it's possible to have had in his career and is treated as if he's working miracles in the same way Brian Clough did with Derby and Forest. Guardiola is the perfect hero figure for the modern world, full of hot air.

Them sour grapes sure are sour :=)

Salah had two great seasons at Roma and isnt doing so bad this year either.

Former Roma manager Luciano Spalletti said of the player:

“Salah is an exceptional player. He is the best player I’ve coached in my career.”

Must be a three season wonder :-)

I'll just remind you the same as last time you popped up after pool won.

Quoted comments are not the opinion of the entire United thread population....

How Soon Is Now

Need to beat Arsenal and City anything less then that and sure ya know yourself.

Even then I think it's City's season everything is going there way.

With the player's they have ya don't just **** away an 8 point lead.

Islander13

Arsenal are on an incredible run at the Emirates. 2 points would be a good haul

Sour grapes?

How could any United fan possibly have sour grapes over Salah??

We weren't in for him.

It's not like he picked you boys over us.

If he was as consistently excellent as he has been this season he would be at a bigger club right now.

If he continues to play that way he will move to a bigger club before too long.

Is he really though?

While he's been very fortunate to find himself managing clubs that have a serious financial clout at some stage it must be acknowledged that he's capable of getting a lot out of his squad of very capable and well paid players. And at the highest level of the game that something extra can be the difference in winning trophies and not.

Anyway, this has gone on a tangent completely unrelated to united.

2nd place trophy is the best we can hope for I reckon, they have probably the best squad in world football currently. They are also getting the rub of the green when it matters.

Tbh I think we have a better chance of winning the champions league than the premiership.

And before any of the rubber neckers jump on that comment and start spouting that United fans think they will win the CL this year, I don't think that, I simply mean it's more likely than winning the league, that doesn't mean I think we will or that we are good enough to do so.

I just can't see where City slip up. Even if we where to win next two games where more likely to slip up again down the line against lower opposition then they are.

The champions league well...... Less said there the better ha.

They were taken over by their owners because they couldn't get their hands on United (not that we'd be complaining had we been "saddled" with their money), they also had their ground handed to them and their fans were historically the bitterest bunch outside of scouser-land.
And I don't like them because I'm a United fan and our club worked hard to struggle to the top over decades of watching our rivals prosper, but yeah fair play to city for being rich blah blah blah...

S.M.B.

2 sterling winners after the 88th minute in a row are worth just the same to City now as they would be if in the last third of the season.

pjohnson

Wins for Liverpool and City yet thier fans are obliged to think of us. Its cute. Like the little brother tryna impress the older brothe; "look at what I did please"

Bascially if some billionaire Arab bought Wigan in thr morning they could do what city are doing now in years time.

Money is everything in football.
