Is the title charge off now?

[Armagh18]

9 games unbeaten ain't too shabby and 10 might have been unrealistic

Weren't beat even though it feels like it!

Still every chance vs Arsenal.

Beat Arsenal and why wouldnt it be on. They've still to play City twice. Only half way through the league remember!

Don't think even the most ardent Utd fans realistically think a sustained challenge for the title is on.

It is just good to be back in around things with a manager who genuinely knows what he is doing.

Was a below par performance last night, which is the next challenge. Performed really well against the top teams so far but need to be able to put these types of teams away with that second goal.

In fairness we've been getting results rightly up to now against the weaker sides. One game against Palace as frustrating as it is to drop points isnt going to make or break the season. In recent years dropping points in games like that was the norm and now its (hopefully) a blip and we can get back to winning ways.

Wonder what the sporting headline would have been if they had won the 10?
The winning run was going to come to an end at some point soon. Winning 9 in a row was pretty impressive. 
Will be interesting to see how you do without Casimero - seems to be the one who holds everything together.

Arsenal are the team to beat, I thought that they would get a stern test at Spurs but they ran over the top of Spurs, they have a great start to their games, waiting on their blip but the way they are playing there is no reason to see that stopping at home at the weekend, very impressed.

If only we'd a manager with a name that lends itself to puns.
Yeah massive loss.

He mustn't have fancied playing arsenal after that challenge.  Yellow card all day long even verging into red territory and him knowing a booking would put him out

He did exactly what was required and showed that he is always going to put the team before himself with that tackle. Zaha was through the press (weak as it was in that instance) and was through on goal had it not been for the challenge.

Had they got out with the win it would have been well worth the yellow, just looks more costly now after conceding the late goal.

Through on goal, Varane was right behind him, the other defenders were there.  A man if his experience coukd have done it more subtlety to try and avoid the card.  Instead it was a hatchet job that was never a red but 100% a yellow.  No big deal but just thought it odd

[NAG1]

Had he got past Casimero he wasnt being caught by anyone, Varrane had a bit of ground to make up to get across. He realised this and was professional.

Think Arsenal coming into the game confident could actually help Utd, ETH will be wanting to use the pace to hit on the break again like the city game. If Arsenal step on it could get dangerous for them going the other way.

No doubt about it, tough game coming up and Casimero is a huge miss, but there is no reason to be going in doom and gloom. Arsenal are playing really well, but as has been said their run has to come to an end same as last night so hopefully it does Sunday.

See Lingard going full Ronaldo. Complaining there is no games room at Carrington. Just to clarify he is 30 years old and he's moaning there is no Toy room at his work place.

That is one of the greatest clowns United ever had.

Best thing they ever did getting rid of him and that other idiot Pogba.

To be honest I'd say ETH is moving quicker than even he expected. They are still light up top so I'd ask: Should United go for Kane this summer to get two good years out of him a la Van Persie?

The midfield could do with another body in fairness too with the 1st choice lads playing a lot of games.

Kane and probably a decent midfielder or 2 to rotate would transform United into genuine title contenders if they can get a bit of luck with injuries next year and players hit top form.
