So Liverpool, Arsenal etc are in no competitions?

It's funny how the Wenger Trophy suddenly became an important achievement now that it's United fighting for it year on year and not just Arsenal.

Oh I'm not saying it's a trophy, but to get CL football for this rebuilding team, is in my eyes, almost a must. So if we don't win the Europa League, then we need to fight to get into that top 4. But there's no excuses for a club as stable as Arsenal, with the resources they have, to keep settling for 4th practically year in, year out. Someone hit the nail on the head after the Chelsea loss, they're a big club that doesn't behave like they're a big club. They finished second last season, a bit of 'progress', and what do Arsenal fans see that summer? Wenger's recruitment featuring a centre half from Bolton, some Japanese kid that nobody has heard of since (where is he? still with his former club until next season?), and admittedly couple of decent signings in Xhaka and Mustafi, but nothing that screamed out "I want to win the league this year".

Southampton were tactically better in truth. You can see those 2 weeks they had paid off on the pitch but not in the result.

What won the game for us was basically individuals. If Puel had a better team at his disposal, we would've very well lost that.

You got carried through by sheer force of will from a couple of players. Not ideal, but something you've been missing for a while now and something teams like Arsenal and Spurs are still sorely lacking. You might not be back, but it's a step in the right direction.

I'm glad Rooney picked that up. I couldn't have handled watching Chris Smalling trying to lift something with 3 handles on it.

Great to get a weeks rest now till Bournmouth at home in the league. Another big game with Arsenal and Pool playing each other. Hopefully get the three points with them bring in poor form. What a turn around since Chelsea thumping. Think our win % in all comps since is 70%.

Amuses the living **** out of me how that bothers you so much (and it obviously does as you're the only one to have a rant on it being mentioned) when it's quite the source of mirth with most Utd fans it's been that long now.

I can't speak on behalf of our fan base, I can only speak for me, and even though I can see the bit of humour in it (even though when it's logically explained, it's not that funny), it's become overused and quite boring. Troll football esque.

But hey, I've slagged a gooner or two about the '4th' jibe in the past, so I haven't really got a leg to stand on.
 
Hey, on the bright side, beat a Bournemouth team in serious free fall next Sat'day morning and you'll more than likely come out the weekend above Arsenal in 5th!

PARTY TIME! :P.

for that to happen that would mean we would want pool to win and no 1 wants that
 
Great to win the trophy. Saints were excellent Bigger targets ahead. Some absolute children in this thread, it's actually embarrassing
 
Or aye Mike. I know Smalling winning a cup them immediately tweeting about L'pool was obsessive like, but a bit harsh to call him a child. :P.
