I'm not saying we should have gone all out at Etihad. But we did give City all the initiative! And Park was a clear miscast against Yaya. I see yr point when it comes to Everton, but a 2 goal lead @ OT should not depend on that.

The fact that we even had to play 5 man midfield against them showed that our elder statesmen Scholes and Carrick cannot deal with opponents with loads of pace. This is something we have to fix in the coming season.

If we can single out ONE moment where I think we picked the wrong tactic, it was precisely at Etihad by fielding a defensive squad. I don't think we need loads of signings, really. Kagawa and Gaitan will be welcome if they come, and 1-2 more are more than enough.

you're just being results oriented. The moment when we picked the wrong tactics was not subbing scholesy out for a more defensive midfielder against everton. The city game we would have lost by a far greater margin had we gone more attacking. only one team didn't lose there this season and you think going with an attacking formation was a better option?? we lost the title when vidic got his injury.

fuckinmg joey barton didnt do us any favors!

All blame is ours. We were winning only 1-0 and being outplayed, city were able to score more goals.

Yeah, we were barely hanging on. Its very disturbing.

Quite embarassing really. Goes down however to key games, like Everton, Wigan, Blackburn, and that period where we had a run of easy games and city hard ones, but failed to mend the goal difference. We've been talking about money buys players but not mentality, but clearly city have had a better team and mentality, it's an argument we can't make no more.

There's nothing embarrasing about it. We LOST the title. Perhaps it was a good thing that it was to City so now maybe the players and the staff will take their games more seriously next season. UNITED must lose in order to pick themselves up and start all over again with renewed belief. When Chelsea took the title away from us we brushed our selves down and started again stronger and better. We nearly did it on the last day BUT we had to rely on another team which is not the UNITED WAY. We did not play well enough and took our eyes off the prize three games ago. United will feel the hurt and come back stronger than ever to compete against City and Chelsea, Tottenham, Newcastle, Arsenal, etc because City will not have it all their own way next season. The end of the game with few minutes left was contrived enough to allow QPR to know that Bolton were drawing. Had Bolton been winning there is no way that City would have scored two goals. That is football, and them is the breaks...sadly we didn't get to capitalise so next season we must play our games and be more ruthless. This year, at times, we were tooo casual

We were able to rise to those Chelsea challenges because we had quality in our squad; Rooney, Tevez and Ronaldo were formidable attackers. In Rio and Vida we had the strongest defence.It's obvoius we lack all this now, so dusting ourselves may be hard unless we do the impossible, add quality to the squad. Rooney is a decent player but making him our most important player is hanging the team on a thread. Mentioning the midfiled will be cliche. We have had an arrogant attitude in the team and fans, that we'll win the league just because we have a better history, and have experience and better mentality than anyone else, and that we don't buy but promote from within(might be so but has it helped us win so far except the class of '92) I don't think we'll be making those claims as of today.

Ferguson's Managerial skills this season absolutely SUCKED. The title was there for the taking several times during the season, but due to his arrogance he put his pride before the welfare of the club and, because of that, denied us another title. This is most disappointing.

you f***ing moron. the title was there for the taking BECAUSE of his managerial skills. only him would take the title battle to the last 2 minutes with a team a squad as weak and injury hindered as ours. get a f***ing clue, will ya?
