RVP leaving would be an unlikely scenario during the season.
Moyes will be given this season and next to change the first team's performances. Even if it takes a complete revamp of the side he deserved our support and not our criticism. We are so used to success that we are impatient for results. True United fans will back the manager even if our results are poor. We are Man United and we will be victorious again!
{Ed002's Note - Your are absolutely right. I really would step back from this "Robin wants out" rumour.}
My earliest memory of a United game was 1966 i.e. I was 8 and went to a 2-2
draw between United and Burnley when Andy Lockhead was playing for Burnley
I also United play Leeds United under Revie and the derby match against City when Glynn Pardoe broke his leg.My greatest memories of the old days was George Best running half the length of OT to score the winner against Chelsea and United Slaughtering West Brom 7-0 in an evening fixture,
I have lived through all the managers since Busby and clearly Sir Alex had the greatest success. Some of the players to thrill have been amazing and the discipline was there for all to see.
Now Moyes needs to build a new tem and blend experience with youth and until the team start winning trophies again his future will always be in question. The United spirit will never die and this is something that gives me hope for the future.
Well It does not surprise me that people are upset about the derby.I watched it with a mixture of resignation and disgust at the abject performance.
It is not surprising - we have an ageing defence and a poor midfield. Fergie always used to rely on the defence and midfield as a solid foundation. Now it leaks goals.
Being behind the curve now we need to catch up with a major investment in a new team for next season.
Position that need to be filled are both full backs -where we are now outrun, a commanding centre back to replace Ferdinand -this could be Phil Jones or Johny Evans - although someone mentioned Garay of Benfica.
Defensive midfield player of potential to replace Keane.
Right wing -probably Zaha or Nani
Left wing Januzaj
I agree - Navas or Jovetic would be better if we had got them. Unfortunately we are not as good at securing top talent as City or Chelsea presumably because of the deals that are offered thee players -quite often to sit on the bench.
United need to decide are they in that market.If so we need to offer the same or better deals or we simply wil not attract the top talent. They will and have gone elsewhere.
This was just a reasonable performance.
I would not read too much into it. Firstly it was at Wembley and the atmosphere was distinctly average. Secondly it was not our strongest team that we played.
Having said that I would like to see some more excitement too. Lingard and Junazaj should get more playing time and it would have been good to see Buttner get a run out. As a positive both Zaha and Welbeck played well as did Carrick, Vidic and Evra. One or two name signings would also help - I'm thinking Baines and Bale. Giggsy will be more of a coach than a player this season.
Why so much of a concern about Rooney? Is he the only quality player we have left!
Fergie has unfortunately left the team in transition. No replacement for Scholes, Rooney is on the Wayne (pun) and the club's financial muscle limited by the Glazer's debt. We all know that the real problems at United are based on a lack of direction and hanging on to or being loyal to ageing players beyond their sell-by date. Next season will be a shock to us because we have not reinvested wisely, integrated players like Hernandez, Welbeck and Evans who are the future of the club. Even if we get Thiago, Baines and Strootman as everyone hopes it will take time for them to bed in. Expecting RVP to work miracles is not enough. This is Man United we are talking about not Torquay United. We have got rid of all the coaching staff who made us a success. I am a very worried Man United fan!
