How do you rate Utd team this season in comaprison to previous years??
I don't reckon its that great. Without RVP its poor. Just that rest of PL have been even worse?

Keep hearing a lot of "without RVP" comments, which I think is a load of shit, perhaps may not have been quite so far ahead without him, but we wouldnt have been far off, seen some silly stat that without his goals united would be 9th in the table. It doesnt work like that, we would have found a lot of the goals from others

In terms of previous teams, as highlighted on sky, reminds me somewhat of the ole, cole, sheringham, yorke side with 4 decent strikers
and we all know what that team achieved that season

I reckon we are a good team with quality through out the squad. Only Manchester City have a similar strength in depth.
The media have been saying the past how ever many years this is the worst United team ever seen. But we still keep winning? I don't buy the rest of PL being worse. I actually think the teams below us have got better than they used to be!
Last season we only lost the title on goal difference against a team most were showering with praise. And we didn't have RVP then.

Also seen a lot of the "PL is rubbish this year", "The PL teams are rubbish compared to the rest of the world", "Madrid will prove this by smashing united" etc. Granted its probably mainly bitter city fans, however what happens if united beat them? where does that leave the PL being the worst in europe in terms of quality, even more so if united went on to win it, that would be two english sides in succession

If you hadn't signed RVP do you think you'd be 12 clear?

Who knows but i think we'd be up their, certainly not 9th.
Hernandez is a goal scoring machine, and Rooney isnt shy lately either
United would have found the goals elsewhere, granted distributed across more players than just the one.
Far from a one man team though

Not 12 clear, but I think Rooney & Hernandez would have picked up a few of the goals he's given us between them to still have us at the top.

Can't wait for the Real game. These are the kind of games you want your team to be involved in

United haven't played well this year (conceding loads early on), but are still way clear, that'd be the only reason I'd say the league was weaker, as they should of been punished more and teams should of kept up with them, but there's more competition for each spot in the league this year with Spurs and Everton having great seasons.
Keys was speaking shit when he said it was the worst ever premier league because United were 12 clear. But didn't mention a thing when he said Bayern and Barca were each 12+ pts clear of their respective leagues that he was insinuating were far better.

I was listening to the same show
The difference is united let loads on but also scored loads to counteract that issue

Tbf I've listened to their show since they came on and Keys has constantly proved to me that he's a clueless prick

I honestly can't stand Keys, he comes across as an utter cunt pretty much every time he says anything, and his ridiculous questions that he knows the answers too drive me crazy too. As well as his self loving laugh that he has.
