Man U supporters can't be thrilled with this season though. They've spent an insane amount of money, brought in the special one and they're a dozen points off the pace and 5 points out of CL at this point. Expectations must have been higher.

Can't be thrilled? Are you kidding? Spending money or bringing in some famous dude is no guarantee of success whatsoever in sports. Geez just look at some of the teams that spent oodles and run through every name coach in the books and all for naught.

After the last couple of years I can tell you as a Manchester United fan I am definitely thrilled. They were the worst possible combination in that they were no good and boring. A lot like the Flames this year. They still have all kinds of players that should be playing in China or the MSL. At minimum one more summer transfer window is what I thought at the start of the year. Still think that's true just to contend for the top four. Minimum two to challenge for the title.

But what a change already. Now we are whining about missed chances and we get to do a lot of whining about that cause they create so many. Last year we had snoozefest's over and over. This team is fun to watch and getting steadily better.

I'm enjoying this year a lot.
