Our title challenge is done, its another setback and we are too far back, we have gone backwards since the Arsenal win and the best we can now hope for is a champions league place...

...on a happier note, a great win for Swansea, a big 3-0 against an in form Newcastle!
 
If I were Moyes, I wouldn't worry just yet... all he needs to do is sign Baines, Howard, Coleman, Jagielka, Distin, Heitinga, Mirallas, Barkley, Jelavic and Lukaku.

Definitely watching Match Of The Day tonight... 💡

Suarez always scores bucket loads of goals against Norwich. 4 today, with one being a 45-yard lob. MOTD definitely tonight.
 
Astounding performance from Suarez tonight - 4 goals, including one 38 yard lob, one perfect free kick, and one absolutely fantastic solo effort, and an assist for the other Liverpool goal... the performance of the season so far, by a country mile... Liverpool could sell Suarez for twice the price of Gareth Bale if they were inclined to.
 
So glad we comfortably beaten Hull City. Little bit of me was expecting more from this game. Especially with that result Hull grabbed against Liverpool. Three points, clean sheet and still at top.

Suarez first against Norwich was absolute cracker.
 
Was brilliant at the Arsenal game last night :). Great early goal (by Bendtner!), we controlled the vast majority of the game and it was good to see Ramsey continue his good form with an assist for Ozil. I know it was only Hull, but it's three more points and another game finished in the league :)

Everton will be a tough game for sure, but let's hope we come out on top 👍
 
If Moyes doesn't buy a decent midfielder in January, I'll be pretty annoyed. I can honestly just see him wasting the whole window trying to sign Baines.

Wouldn't mind a new winger too. Sell Young & Anderson as well please.
 
Kagawa...

I'm a fan of Kagawa, but we definitely need somebody else. Most of the time Moyes puts him out on the wing... With Carrick out and Rooney with a suspension, we lack creativity, and we certainly don't get that from Fellaini or Cleverley.
 
So last night I said our title challenge is done and I feel the same today, I know its a bit early but we need Arsenal to drop a number of points and we need to win pretty much every game and I cant see that happening right now...the best we can do is second or third place...

But there is a bit happier news for United fans, in the paper today it said we were getting rid of Young and Anderson in January, ive only got one word for that if it happens...GOODBYE!!!!
 
Yes, Ashley Young is rumoured to be quitting professional football and joining Tom Daley for a new season of Splash!

I think Man U might struggle for a top 4 spot this season, but the table is tight and it is still early days... Chelsea's defence is all over the shop, Liverpool can blow hot and cold at times, and Arsenal are not exactly renowed for holding their nerve, but all three look far better than Man Utd right now. Everton are also looking solid, and I'd love to see them get a Top 4 finish. I would not bet against Man Utd though, but it would take something pretty extraordinary - based on current form anyway - for them to win the league this year.

Manchester United are currently the same number of points away from top of the table Arsenal as they are from relegation zone Fulham.
 
So Premier League footie this weekend then...

Saturday

Crystal Palace v Cardiff
Liverpool v West Ham
Man United v Newcastle (12.45 BT)
Southampton v Man City
Stoke v Chelsea
Sunderland v Tottenham (5.30 SKY)
West Brom v Norwich

Sunday

Fulham v Aston Villa (1.30 SKY)
Arsenal v Everton (4.00 Sky)

Monday Night

Swansea v Hull (8.00 Sky)

Its also the second round of the FA cup as well so that means the third round draw will be on Sunday and there will be a minutes applause before all PL games as a mark of respect for Nelson Mandela...
 
Another loss later and we could be in 10th by the end of the day. That'll probably inspire #MoyesOut to become trending on twitter.
 
Chelsea have lost to Stoke, Man Utd have lost to Newcastle, and Man City draw... good weekend for Liverpool, and possibly for either Arsenal or Everton too.
 
Terrible, pathetic and disappointing...those three words and more can be used to describe Uniteds performance, when Newcastle scored we did nothing, there was no fight whatsoever...

Another epic face look from Jones. :D
 
His nickname in the dressing room is Quagmire, because they think he look like Quagmire from Family Guy..
 
The worry for United now is who will want to sign for us in January? We were eyeing up Koke and Gundogan but why would they want to come to United when both of their teams are doing well in the league and have a good chance in the UCL?

They wouldn't have signed anyway so that point doesn't need to be made.
 
Don't worry about it, United are still great club. For example Cabaye left Ligue 1 champion Lille to play in world's best league in NUFC.
