Well, there goes our rather optimistic hope of going the whole season unbeaten. We can't even go 5 games unbeaten.
It says something about our chances in the champions league this season, too - they're small. We've now let in 10 goals in five games - one of the worst defensive records in the premiership. You shouldn't score three times and lose a game, and we can't afford to.
In my view, our defense was the only weak area of our team last season, so what do we do over the summer? Strengthen our midfield and attack, who have already been breaking goalscoring records for a few seasons running.
Selling Jaap Stam wasn't a smart move either. None of the comments in his book, when read in context, were the least bit offensive - so I only hope for Ferguson's sake that he was truthful when stating that it was unrelated to his departure. I'm undecided on Laurent Blanc so far, but I hope he turns out to be a decent replacement. The only other decent defender we have, is the fast improving Wes Brown. Those aside, we have a highly over rated and under performing defence.
This sort of result was on the cards from the start of the season. I was just hoping it wouldn't happen.

One man team? ;-p
George Best also said that Beckham is an 'average' player - what was it - "No left foot, can't tackle" or something like that. Did you swallow that one whole, too? :-)
Well we did but the defence wasen't good at all. Stam has gone and Phil neville is no where near as good as Gary. Blanc is just an oldie.
But still we don't have the greatest record against Newcastle, remember the 5 nil defeat? Oh my. Asprilla scored 3 in 3 mins. I couldn't belive it.
But this my friend could be the start at man.u losing it.
Anyway. Come on you reds, come on you reds.
But at least we are still scoring goals, As Geroge Best said, we have the best player in the world: Veron. He can carry us to domestic and europeon glory.
The most worrying thing is we havnt kept a clean sheet yet.
