This thread is a bit miserable. Some quality posts that I find it hard to disagree with,
I just think it's a bit ridiculous that it's taken the Mancs walking through West Brom
to trigger it. What did people expect? It's not in West Brom's DNA to make it awkward
for them. They can't spoil games. Tonight hasn't really made me more miserable, I kind
of expected it. It's the Middlesbrough, Sunderland and Bolton games that pissed on my
chips. 1-0's, two with late goals, all without playing well.
Was thinking about this last night after reading through some of the posts hoping that
West Brom would get something out of this game. I mean, don't get me wrong but it would've been nice if they had but all in all, i think many were already accepting the fact that United would get the 3 points, be it 0-1 or 0-5 as they did.
But the concern really comes into play when you ask about our games. We would like to get
3 points but will we? Given the recent form it seems not. Sure, this seasons been different compared to recent times but it seems like things are 'back to normal' where United are concerned.
And there in lies the difference, you would accept United to get the win be it in a last minute goal or something like that but when will we? Do we have confidence in the team to scrape a win from no-where?
I just hope that tonights game is different. We really are looking a bit slow coming out
of the blocks and need to get the early goal or a goal before half time to settle the nerves. I think thats all it is, its just nerves. The players and staff know we're the closest we've ever been to winning the league and this could be playing on them. Getting the lead and building on that woud hopefully help settle this.
