Nah, you've been listening to Moaniho as have all their players about all these excuses. We got 89 points and didn't bother with the last 2 games. Dong and Eagles even got the "guad of honour"
Last season they got 91 points without the Cech and Terry situation and we were 8 points behind with Keane, Smith and Giggs all getting broken bones plus Scholes out blind for ages. Fletcher and defender Oshea at CM.
So 2 points less than what they got when they won without the issues.
The reason United won this year was because they did something they haven't in years, they started off great . Its funny because Ferguson and the United players weren't kicking up this much of a fuss about their problems. It happens. They were losers and not good enough, never did they match our football. 5-1 first game of the season! Not because Chelski had injuries.
You can't have it both ways, if Chelski lost it because of injuries then so did United the previous year.
