Perspective; 3 months ago I would have said there was cause for concern as we languished in the bottom third of the Prem and couldn't seem to buy a home win. Now, United are second in the Prem, equal points with Liverpool and have progressed to the 4th round of the FA Cup with a team consisting of reserve squad youngsters and others who will soon be leaving and were basically given a final swan song against Watford. I'm not saying we're now the finished article or anywhere near it and our position in the Prem has a lot to do with other teams inconsistencies. I dont think we'll win the Prem, though naturally that would be fantastic, but on our day we can beat anybody, off our day we can lose to anybody too, but a good run in the Cup, maybe even winning it, and a good, strong finish in the Prem, second or third within striking distance of the eventual winners, will do wonders for the teams confidence, help attract new recruits and provide the platform for a real title challenge next season along with a successful run in the European Champions League. Instead of constantly putting the team down and moaning we should all get behind them and the manager!
