No that's just something one person said.
Over the years plenty of people have commented on how that year United "won the league by Christmas".
IIRC no other team has been top going in to the new year and stayed there.

There has been a lot of people saying things about Man Utd..some not so good.
I tend to find factual is better

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
Do you understand the meaning of 'figure of speech'?

Man United are England's biggest and most successful club and that's all down to Sir Alex but whether they can be just as successful under David Moyes is very much open to question and even MU supporters will admit that.

You only ever speak in fact, never use expressions etc? Nit-picking at its finest.
(Not suggesting you actually pick at nits by the way).
I clearly labelled my comment as a figure of speech.

Re: Football Season 2013/14 & Summer Window
Clearly beyond you...
