Recognised his voice straight away, from the short clip of Grandstand someone had put on twitter.
The league tables are interesting too!

Now want nothing more than to see them go through what people in the North East have had to support
Proves they didnt give moyes time...

Unfortunately for LVG it's gone completely wrong. When I first seen the team, I was expecting a 1-0 defeat, perhaps after ET or penalties.He's been naive in my opinion, Man Utd can't defeat anyone by being Man Utd any more and by the look of that defensive line-up (except De Gea) he thought they could. Everyone can now see how good Sir Alex was, making Championship standard players Prem title winners...
I wouldn't take too much from it, as it's not the first team that's been hammered tonight, but the squad are inevitably going to suffer from this!

Tonight hasn't just backfired, a A-Bomb has gone off right in front of him...As they were saying earlier on the commentary 10 changes will more than likely be made come Saturday...
That result has made my night

(26 Aug 2014, 9:02 pm)marxistafozzski wrote Alex Ferguson was not just good...The man is a genius...As for making Championship Standard players Premier League Winners, can you expand on that, tell me exactly who in the last 10 years you would say is/was Championship StandardSorry should have made that a bit clearer, the team he handed across to Moyes is full of them, in my opinion anyway, yes De Gea, Rooney, Januzaj (now), Van Persie etc are all outstanding, but Welbeck Evans Cleverley etc I believe to be of a very low quality, Championship or low Premier League at very very best

I can't see United doing much this season, but I am confident they will qualify for Europe by finishing top 6
