I really like Neville as a pundit, but he sucks as a commentator IMO.

He does that way too often. Sometime you can hear him clapping too (might not be him but its probably him)

SAF has lost his touch.

I don't understand why he puts out this kind of lineup in this type of match. United attacked for the first 15-20 minutes but decided to bunker the last 65-70 minutes. There was no legit threat to any of their attacks today. They deserved to lose the title to City.

They really need a central midfielder or two. Giggs and Scholes got dominated and it wasn't pretty.

I think SAF deserves credit for taking this United team to the brink of a title against a team like City.

I think their transfer policy, whether it was Fergie's call or the board's, is too blame. They desperately needed a central midfielder, and then Vidic + Fletcher + Cleverly went down, it's really surprising that they managed to stay in the race with City.

This.

Giggs is out of form for some time now. Scholes can't do everything by himself.

I just accidentally clicked your sig, and realized it linked to Neville's Tor-gasm. I lol'd.

And of course, Yaya Toure is a tank.

I think we're definitely going to see some big changes for Man U this summer, when Scholes and Giggs are gone. I can't see them being competitive with Man City, a potentially revamped and stacked Arsenal squad, and a Chelsea squad that actually lives up to its potential unless they do something significant in the transfer market.

Isn't United linked with Modric and Bale this summer?

I know that Man U has been looking at Porto's James Rodriguez for a while now. I think they should sign him, he is a talented young mid fielder.

Well, I don't know how both of them play in a game vs. Manchester City. They are 37/38 they simply are not capable of dominating the midfield against a world class team anymore. :dontknow:
