I still absolutely do not rate their back 4, especially their CB's. They have no remotely WC one. Lindelöf is oki, but they need a VVD/KK type. If they add KK or de Ligt, plus a WC RW, then they are close to Shitty/Victimpool level. I think they move for Bale or Zaha, maybe Pepe.

But they are not bad at all. We are in top 4 with Marcos Alonso as Lb and error prone David Luiz in back 4. 

Yes, a wc cb will make their defence better but honestly I can say the same thing for our defense or City defense. Their winger situation is perfectly fine. Lingard, Rashford, Sanchez, Martial. Not sure what more do you want. 

Solkjaer has done a very good job but honestly he came in during busy Christmas period with 0 training time yet he managed to win games after games.

We just disagree on this

I do not rate 

Smalling

Bailly (too brittle)

Jones

Rojo

at all

those are not title winning (let alone CL winning) CB's

Lingard is their only natural RW, and again, not up to title winning level

Sanchez was an insanely bad move, thank dog it wasnt us

They seem to have a young gem in RB Dalot

Luke Shaw is serviceable, but not great, he is at a level they can win with, but barely

Valencia and Young are both 34 this summer and washed up very soon

I absolutely dont rate them, overall, at Shitty and VPool levels

far too many holes atm

That's maybe the dumbest goalkeeper error I have ever seen. He tips it over himself on towards goal. Completely undangerous. A good goalie caches that and a bad ones just lets it pass and it goes out for a goalkick. NO idea what he even was trying to do, tipping it behind himself is never a good idea

Man United scrapped this. Their fixture list is a joke, really. Hopefully their ride will come to an end soon. They were lucky today.

That's why I can't understand how members here get worked up because of their few winnable games...

Cause can only beat who is in front of you. Plus Spurs.. Under Jose they dropped silly points... They lost to Brighton last time..winnable or not as it stands they're 3 behind us. Many weeks back they were 12. More to do with us then them but still annoying.

The amount of luck victimpool have had this season.... 

Champions elect luck, we've had many of those lucky breaks along the years, maybe its finally their lucky break, altough i dont want them to win it, but it was bound to happen for them sooner or later, while we are fighting for top 4, instead of investing in proper quality to challenge for the title, how times have changed.
