Seems that many United fans have the knives out and hear the knells chiming in the background. Sure many expected us to beat Bolton, but we have to understand that Bolton are no longer a club struggling for relegation, they are a solid, hard working and talented premiership side, so it doesn't come with much surprise that we struggled to get the point yesterday.
I will admit that we haven't had the best of starts, and although we've only lost once, we've drawn far too many and already seen Arsenal open up an "unassailable" (according to some people) lead in the title race. It's a daunting task, but one I believe our boys are up to the task of facing. When we get Rio, G. Neville and Rooney back and Ruud back to match fitness, we will then see the true United. If come the end of the season, we finish outside a champions league spot, then perhaps we can start asking questions of the players and the manager, but up until now, all we can do is sit tight and get behind the players.

Think your right not to panick...yet. But to get back into the title race you may have to do the double over Arsenal. Are you capable?
Thanks for the praise on Bolton, nice to see the teams efforts recognised
Fully agree with your comments regarding Bolton Wanderers, Sam Allardyce has done a remarkable job and perhaps the only team which might expect to win there with near certainty in the EPL is Arsenal, so a draw is not as bad as some people think.
Re. Utd - I hope you are right, but I can't escape the feeling that there is more lacking at OT than a 'few players' awaiting return to full fitness. Roy Keane's concerns recently seem to emphasise that suspicion...
Even with the likes of RVN, Rooney, Saha, Rio and Gary back in the team, I just feel we are desperately short of creativity in central midfield (Kleberson has a few nice looking tricks, but not many effective ideas...)
However, there is a ray of sunshine if the reports about our youngsters can be believed (Rossi, Pique and the kids currently at Antwerp...)
Yeah I agree as well but can't help being extremely irritated about the way things have been going..Silvestre has been the most frustrating...he's in horrible form so we need rio back as soon as possible..but on the postive..ruud's back, heinze was very good, n' wes as usual solid..so that's gives hope for the the future, starting wednesday..
I think Bolton is the wake up call. Fergie will find that his sentimentality will be his and ManU's downfall. The purchase of Rooney and week-in-week-out excuses of being ravaged by injuries cant cover the rot forever. The players are just not good enuff. Djemba,Klebberson, OShea, Wes and Phil to name a few blatent ones. 4 yrs ago, they wouldnt have made the bench. The incumbents shd not be spared either. Giggs is way past his expiry date and Scholes' std has drop a few notches down. keane was again bossing the midfield against Bolton..which was good..cos its like the 1st good thing tt came frm Man U..and its bad..cos tat means..there is no adequate succession soon. Alex shd forget the success of the 92 Class or it will cause his downfall. To win..u hve to be ruthlessly demanding. My advice to Alex is prepare the cut off the arm before the rot worsen n he ends up losing Man U's life.
