Michael Brown throwing out the stronger depth shout, they’re even loaning out promising youngsters now too. So not sure how he works that out.

BBC predictions are up. Rob Green has United finishing 2nd ahead of us.

He's probably seen them loan out Henderson, sign Tom Huddlestone and thought....maybe, just maybe
If he's being asked to head the ball too frequently - which isn't exactly his specialty - it could affect his ear and cause an infection. Especially if the ball hits him on the ear directly.

Ex Man City player talking shite. Shock.

Richards has gone for City to win it which I'm really shocked by. Probably gets royalties from the club for blowing smoke up their arse.

To be fair, we're one of the lucky ones in that Paul Machin is a fairly articulate and logical presence to represent the club.

Imagine being represented by AFTV or Adam McKola.

Agreed, football fan media "pundits" are always going to be skewed in what they say as they go for what will generate the most attention rather than what they actually think.

Little bit worrying that Jermaine Jenas, Clinton Morrison and Chris Sutton have us winning it. JJ should stick to Question Time. His analysis on Utd is very very tired and lazy

"This is not Ronaldo at the peak of his powers, like when he won the Champions League with United in 2008 and he was indispensable and had so much influence on the team. But this Ronaldo is vital in terms of his goal contribution to United. If they lose the 24 goals he scored for them last season, who gets them? "

I think we worked out by now this isn't 2008, and how about looking at how many goals the team scored every season before that petulant fucker came back

Can we change the title to just generic pundit discussion? Because we also talk about the worst pundits here.

Speaking of which, Martin Tyler with a disgusting comment on BBC R4 this morning. Talking about the start of Sky Sports, said “we weren’t that long after Hillsborough and other hooligan-related events.”

He’s always seemed to have something against us. Hopefully R4 correct the record.

I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and say that he didn't mean to link Hillsborough and hooliganism together in the way it sounds.  If I'm wrong and he did, he should never be allowed to commentate on our games again, and should also apologize. That's so hurtful of a comment if he meant it

Yeah sometimes words come out not quite how you mean them to. Saying that if he genuinely was linking the 2 it’s beyond disgraceful, given what he does for a living he of all people should know better

The BBC & Tyler have both apologised although I think he knew exactly what he was saying.

He's an outdated dinosaur with the propensity to make scummy as fuck comments like that. Don't ever want him near a commentary gantry again.

No doubt about it. So many other ways he could've worded it and would've been very clear he wasn't conflating the 2, but he chose to imply Hillsborough was linked to hooliganism.

Indeed, he's been forced to weasel out of it, but he definitely knew what he was doing by including the word other in that sentence, he's paid to speak for a living after all.

I have no words to thank you enough for all these years and I am very proud to say that I was your manager. Thank you so much once more and always remember: You'll never walk alone."

What's Gary Neville going on about now:

"The coach needs time so I won't have a go at him. And it comes a time where I won't even have a go at the players anymore. If you have a business and the people in that business can't do the job for you then you remove them from the business.

"It's abuse to keep them in the job for longer as they don't enjoy it either"
