That team just need a bit magic player on attack, and they'll give a run for most teams in the league.

Missed the last 20 went to the Cafe and the thread title gave it away.
Where's Phelan's shorts though?
Missed the whole game basically. We came alive and put them under relentless pressure.

Wait I thought mourinho won it?
From this article:

The EA SPORTS Player of the Month will be decided by a combination of votes from the public and people from the football world.

A shortlist of players will be drawn up at the end of each month and published on the Premier League’s digital platforms. The public can then vote on who they think should win.

At the same time, a panel made up of former footballers and managers, will cast their vote, while the captain of each Premier League club will also have one vote each.

Votes from the three parties will be combined to decide the winner which will be announced by the Premier League soon after.

In a similar way, a shortlist will be made for the Barclays Manager of the Month and the winner will be decided by a combination of votes from the panel and the public vote – via Premier League.com

Oh my bad. Not undeserved anyway. Had a good month. Unfortunately reports say he is unlikely to be given the job

Has been offered the Hull job permanently, said as much in the post match interview after the City game.

Great appointment for Hull. Hope he does well.

Is he a contender for the United job at any point?

Whats the difference between head coach and manager?
Nowadays there doesn't seem to be any difference. I think Wenger is the only proper manager left, a person who's in charge of more than just coaching the 1st team, the rest who're managers are really just head coaches.

Bruce first and now phelan. They should hire Giggs and sack him before the season end for the United hattrick.

Bet Ferguson is shaking his head in disbelief at how little time managers get these days. I feel sorry for Phelan.

Shame. The squad he has is terrible. The fact that they arent going to beat the Derby record for fewest points is an achievement by itself.

These days if you touch the bottom of the table you're gone.

Made a great start

And in most games you could see a bit of fight in them

I think with the resources available he did ok and can feel unlucky. But they were always going down

I feel for him but they've been really poor. It's a shame as he did so well to earn the job in the first place, and they've been awful since he officially took over.

Though their form has been terrible recently, and maybe a new manager saves them from the drop. Pardew?

Sure he's not getting the results but you can't polish a turd as they say. I can't see who they'll get in that will do any better.
