And I feel there's more than a degree of the usual anti-United bias going on! You can't compare United now to the team of the 90s, when the youth policy was more evident (even if you decide to 'forget' Rossi, Bardsley, Eagles, Fletcher etc who are all showing signs of becoming quality players). Our reign then was based on the younger guys alongside the experience of the old guard. Chelsea's success is based on Roman's chequebook.

When Jose has acheived half of what SAF has done in the premiership THEN come back and you might have more success with that one!

Did anyone see the double going to Chelsea? Twice? The treble even?

edit: me and the scouse agreeing so often is NOT good for my image
