Our upcoming fixtures are not too bad

but plenty of banana skins.

need to shake off the last few games. and Arteta really needs to start holding his nerve and being braver.

we can't just expect to turn up. or play 'not to lose'

city have a couple of tricky ones coming up.

There's a horrible sense of inevitability about all this. I feel we will start losing and drawing a number of games from the end of the season, games we should be winning.

Arteta needs to sort it or he's not the man. if for the position we are in all comps and fail to win any of them I would think this would be a massive failure.

We will never get a better chance to win the league. If he doesn't win it this year then he never will.

Some of my friends who support United have been very vocal in the last week. Classless ****s, imo :-)

They kept going on about the anniversary of Keegan blowing a 12 point lead and gistory repeating itself, and I wondered why they were mentioning it as we never even close to being 12 points clear. Turns out we are 12 points ahead of them.....

They actually think they are going to win the league! Now that is optimism for you :-)

Carrick is an extremely good fit for them, like Mikel is for us. More experience too.

Everyone wants a fancy foreign coach nowadays though so he's unlikely to be offered the job long-term.

If we want our players to earn 300 million billion k per week, then they're going to have to earn it.

We are too poor to be able to afford cheap solutions, as the man (sort of) said.

Bear in mind it is more expensive to do things cheaply.

Probably just as well.

We shall overcome, but it will take time.
