If that trend continues we will be ok but if not I can't see us staying in the title race all season.
If United have their customary slow start to the season, I think it might be a big job to catch up this time around, they can't keep on relying on Rooney. Hernandez will take time to settle in, plus Berbatov is not up to the mark, so I am not sure where the goals will come from.
There is talk, albeit paper talk that some youngsters will be blooded, if it is a repeat of the class of 92, it won't be so bad, but I have a feeling it won't be.
Still, United have had a fair amount of success, and all things come to an end.
I just wish the Glazers ownership would come to an end, even if it meant United sitting mid table for the next four of five seasons, I could put up with that.
