Guys spare a thought for Marcellus Wallace and go easy on him. He is finally out from hiding after his team won a premier league title after 5 years. His club haven't been able to get the top signings they had hoped for (yet) and he seems just a little bored and frustrated and quite frankly jealous of us making some real strides in terms of recruitment. He has only seen a buy your way to the top approach and is alien to the concept of striking a balance and developing youth and giving it a chance in your first team if they are good enough.
He can close his eyes and tell us that we are miles behind, when in reality we are just a couple of players away from having the best squad in the league while Chelsea are an injury to Hazard away from being a team that creates nothing. City are an ageing squad in need of major retooling while the issues that existed with Arsenal before are still very much the same.
We have caught up in terms of quality, big time.

i don't think he even knows his own teams history nevermind the fact they haven't produced a player since terry.
its nice knowing other fans are worried about united this season, so they come on here and try give abuse

You have no need to worry about me fella, I never hide anywhere.
You too can close your eyes as to how far you are behind the other top 3 clubs if it really makes you feel good.
You could have purchased any of the 4 players I listed below with a bigger fee and better wages because you allegedly can. Mysteriously you didn't.
You purchased the likes of Fellaini, Mata, Schneiderlin, Schweinsteiger and Depay instead and want to believe you are back on a level playing field with the rest.
No doubting the are good players but why Schweinsteiger when Vidal was available.
You think that City with a spine of Hart, Kompany, Toure, Silva and Aguero are weak, with Sterling signed and more to follow and that Arsenal still have problems, I guess all the assists Fabregas gets are just fairy dust.
Wake up fella.

I think we already have the best squad in the league IMO. I think we caught up with Chelsea last season in terms of performances and quality. City are over-rated and Arsenal are Arsenal so I honestly think that we will win the league next season or come very close. We need to dispatch the smaller sides. Our performances against the top four sides were very good last season. It was our performances against teams who parked the bus against us and counter attacked that we had problems with. Hopefully, with a much stronger CM and more pace in the attach, that won't be such of a dilemma this season.
{Ed025's Note - im afraid your defence is still pretty poor to be honest sam and would improve with the addition of 2 full backs and 2 centre half,s mate, then you can compete for that fourth spot.. :)

wallace - amongst most of the BS you posted throughout today, you mentioned something about trophies in the last 10 years and that chelsea have won more?
as the fat spanish waiter once said "here are the FACTS"
since 2003 you have won 14 trophies to united's 18 so i think your a bit confused when you say you have won more than us in the last 10 years.

Shweiny has played under lvg, he trusts him and knows his qualities. He buys players that he thinks can understand the way he wants to play and makes purchases based on who fits his systems rather than always the best player. World Cup wining Germany captain can only run off and improve the rest of our players.
Your club is a graveyard for youth coming through yet your manager calls out other teams for trying to "buy" the league. Hypocrisy at its very best
27 Jul 2015 15:11:49
LOL Ed.
You forgot to mention CM. Our CM won't be complete without Wesley Sneijder.
{Ed025's Note - wes is well past it sam but you have carrick who is still world class mate.. :)
27 Jul 2015 15:17:08
Spb, Chelsea fans use the bullmetric system when it comes to trophy counting.
:O)
27 Jul 2015 15:27:03
In all seriousness, Carrick played really well against Barcelona. I am not sure about having two holding midfielders though. I would much rather see a three man CM with one holding player.

Marsellus
Fellaini dominated Liverpool, Spurs and City and was one of the best players last year in terms of impact. Not to mention he had Fabregas in his pocket at Old Trafford.
A Chelsea fan questioning Mata's quality is quite frankly disrespectful.
Schneiderlin is a top quality CM and so is Schweinsteiger and Depay is highly rated.
You seem clueless mate. We did make mistakes in the buying last summer but this year has been spot on.
Fabregas is a player that fizzles out after December, we have seen it every year. If you cannot see that you are reliant on Hazard to bail you out and without him create little to nothing then you really are living in a bubble.

united have one striker, and even he likes to run to left back to win the ball so you need to buy a world class forward to be classed as title contenders. I'm sorry to all the people looking through rose tinted specs but Wilson is mid table championship quality. Rooney will not win you the title with his goals! get lewendowski in and I will take u seriously.
27 Jul 2015 17:01:28
Boddy how anyone on this page take you serious when you support spurs?
And is this the same Rooney who embarrassed your defence at OT last season?
And regardless of your opinion on weather we will be title contenders, spurs will never challenge anywhere near the top 4 never mind title.
Other than loris and Kane(going of form from last year). Who have you got that can be classed as any good
27 Jul 2015 15:42:51
@Ed025
I'm sure we will address that defense mate. The problem was playing Evans and Rojo and Shaw suffering injuries.
We have already added Darmian, Shaw looks fitter this year, add Otamendi and we are sorted.
Evans will be sold once we sign a CB and I'm sure Everton will be helping us with that ;)
{Ed025's Note - im sure we will redfaith..knowing us we will give you stones for evans and januzaj mate.. :(
27 Jul 2015 17:22:04
Rooneys touches are terrible, I agree with boddy on The striker dept, although wilson will be a good player if he can come on.
But seriously you taking man utd serious, a spurs fan.:O
