Christ :eek: I'm not ready for lads who were young players when Sir Alex retired being made managers.

We'll always have the Cleverley and Anderson partnership.

That was bizarre. How did that happen with those two in midfield? Were they actually not shit?
Personally, I never thought Anderson was shit. He was mint in his first season when we won the double, but then he failed to kick on. A combination of injuries and not taking care of his fitness meant he never fulfilled his potential. That mini resurgence he had next to Cleverly was beautiful.

I recall he had a pretty good finish to the 10/11 season too. For whatever reason he was an afterthought by January 2012, though really Carrick was too good to stay out of that team for any prolonged period.

Genuinely over a 5 match period, the most attractive football I've seen us play
Yeah it's either that or a stretch when Saha was healthy or Tevez was scoring and we tore teams apart more directly, which was attractive in a more explosive and less cute way.

Psycho of a player decided to smash his penalty down the middle against Cech in Moscow, what a man.
