8 2 Admit That I Sold My Ticket!

Can you believe that United tonk Arsenal 8 - 2 and I wasn't there to see it! I don't miss too many games and I should have been there but I had a bit of trouble selling my Dads ticket as he was working - so I decided to sell both tickets to a friend of mine who took his son. To be honest I don't regret it, I'm sure they both had a great time and I certainly enjoyed watching it on TV. I had Scarlett with me, I think that baby is starting to become my lucky charm!
I was very impressed with United, I thought they were brilliant going forward but I thought Arsenal were awful defensively. I actually think United can play much better than that, we basically gifted Arsenal their two goals through stupid mistakes and they should really have punished Johnny Evans clumsy defending and scored that penalty. Mark my words this United team will only get better.
I'm loving the new signings, Jones is a class act, Young always looks dangerous and i even like the goalkeeper although he definitely needs to improve his concentration. I've also been very impressed with the two young lads that Fergie has promoted... Wellbeck and Cleverly. It's a shame Wellbeck has picked up an injury but at least we have plenty of other options up front. Cleverly looks like just sort of midfielder that we need, plenty of running and quality on the ball.
I still can't believe how bad Arsenal were, I just don't know what's going on there. Why didn't they flog Fabregas and Nasri early in the summer it was obvious that they both wanted to go. There operating a really strange transfer policy there... now they are going to end up with sub standard signings because they have left there recruitment far too late.
I don't see them as a challenger for the league I hate to say it but I think City could be our biggest rivals... They've started the season almost as well as us! I'm not convinced by Chelsea yet and I think Liverpool may lack a bit of quality - they don't have enough top players in my opinion, although I suppose there is one day until the window closes so they may bring more players in! But ultimately I think it will be a two horse race.
