Then I appreciate it is probably because of my age, but these last 22 years have literally flown by. So couple that together with my mind thinking that the gaps further back were an eternity and I am left very confused by the concept of time.

Also, very interesting viewpoint on the histories of Man Utd and Liverpool.
Definitely an age thing. It is very hard to believe it has been 22 years. But our previous longest gap was 18 years. 53 to 71, and then 71 to 89. One title in 36 years! And I missed it by a year

When i was young United were average. A decent side who spent a lot, had loads of fans but never did much. Bit like the last ten years

As a club, they are in a mess. We have to give our guys a lot of credit for scrapping that idiotic structure that ruined Emery's time with us, and finding one that works. And having the guts to accept how far we had sunk and how long they had to give Arteta to turn it around. None of the ego you see at other clubs, that leads to impatience and turmoil.

It feels like United are still having that conversation. I hope they keep going
