we are not poor , but not good enogh for europe!!!!!!!!!!(our best midfiekder is carrick!!!!!!,he wouldnt gey on first 11 of the teams of past!!) the sucecces last few years comes frome years of hard work to move towards that point . but once we had the chance to capatalse on that (with the 500 mill gone out) to be even better than barca we couldnt! if we had let say another 200 mill to spend , who knows we might have won 2 more champions leauge and 1 more premiership!!!!!!! you see glzers have costed us to be the BEST! and now we are moving further and further away! City will be better and stronger next year! so will chelsea.., so will barca and real. us???? buy some more young potential in hope to hit the jackpot like we did with ronaldo? that left a great taste with glazers i guess! :) turning a blind eye to this will just bring more misfortune to utd. and we will be more the new arsenal and than liverpool looking at our nighbours winning and us telling about our glorious past to our children! :)

There are those saying United is poor. United are top of the league, have won it 4 of the last 5 years and were in 3 of last 4 UCL finals winning one. This year is a blip until proven otherwise.

i dont think the sensible fans think we are poor,but we are certainly playing poor,we played poor last season (especialy away) but the other PL teams were just poorer,and the fact SAF has the knack of making his teams grind out performances..

Ok, fair enough.

Must be the only good team anywhere in the world last year was Barca. Because they are the only team that had a better season than we did. United won the PL, but only did so because everyone else was poor. United made it to the CL finals, but we were poor in the CL also. Therefore, everyone who did not make the CL final was also poor. But Barca won the CL, but with everyone else in the Europe poor, that means that Barca really isn't that good,the only won because every other club in Europe stunk. Pfft, Barca you are not all that.

Interesting comment. Everyone is looking for someone to blame. There is nothing you or I can do about it unless the club moves to fan ownership (which I doubt will happen).

The best thing is to continue supporting the club and hope next years cup performances are better.

The fans. who stood still and did nothing of importamce to stop money going out of the club. money that could have bought us some needed exprience of world class player who are allready there !!!! not potential in 5 years time (which most of times dosent happen)(remind me of arsenal???) 11 mill net spending in last 5 years on transfers! lower than averege ckubs (barca 60 mill a year) even if glazers sell 1 day the next owner might end up be worse! a bad circle that could take utd as 1 of the best and turn in to averege!! we werent good enough for champions leauge, not even uefa cup, thats the truth! untill the fans stop feeding the cancer it wont stop! So, who is the blame here???? our coaches and sir alex, the players done the best they can with what they got!!! i guess this a painfull thing to see utd moving further and further awat from its path, but nothing we can do about it or complain about as it is our own fault to let them take our club and abuse it! the only way to come out of this is for the fans to stand togetjher , and as painfull as it might be not going to matches, untill changes are done to the structure that is destroying this club!
