I loved these comments .
Broadcaster and writer Danny Baker (external) with some typically witty Twitter observations on Manchester United's troubles. "United are like going to see a famous band who have a great back catalogue & reputation but now only one original member left. Eerily aimless show from Man U. It's like Alex Ferguson took the power charger with him when he left and now they're down to 8% and falling."
I really hope they don't find the charger hes talking about.

These are truly desperate times at the swamp.The defence and midfield is of lower mid table quality at best.Looking at the fixtures I thought they were gifted a favourable start to the campaign, but to see them manage just the one point from Swans and Sunderland is the stuff of dreams.

Not sure what kind of spending policy they are working by but they seem to have overlooked the weak areas within the team and are paying way over the odds for players.Di Maria is the only one that will make a major difference but at £63.9 million It's one of the most ludicrous transfer fees in history of the game.Not sure on the exact figure they have spent this summer but I'm pretty certain it can't be in balance with ffp rulings.

I know that it's only two games into the season, I know that they have loads of injuries, I know that they'll probably buy enough players to plug the gaps, I know that they'll improve and start picking up wins and I know that van Gaal will start to get it right, but by God this is great fun.

Their first few games were supposed to give them an easy start. Ha

It doesn't matter about FFP as they won't have to pass it next season if they actually get into a European competition, same as the dippers this season. But it does mean that next years spending will be tiny in comparison, whether they make Europe or not.

On this logic you can 'cheat' a club out of a CL place and that's ok. Shows how farcical Financial Unfair Play is.

The rags can pass ffp any time they want. It would just require the Glazers to take less money out for a season. Spend nowt on players the following season & Glazers take double their usual cut. FFP passed, Glazers have their full cut.

The problem will be, if this enormous, ridiculous, transfer fee inflating, spend doesn't get them into the Champions League. The Glazers will not do it again in a hurry if that money doesn't come in. Without the Champs League, it's a one off.

For that reason, I am hoping Liverpool, Arsenal & Spurs have good seasons this time round. Edit: and Everton.

And Swansea, champions league club after 2 games, they are the new Liverpool.

Imagine if that were true ? And City Chelsea Everton & Swansea finished as the top 4 ?

I wonder what rule change that would bring ?

I would just love to see Arsene's press conference after they failed to make the Champion's League because of Swansea.

I have no doubt should that happen, City would be challenged on the basis that we failed FFP and it directly affects the Whinger.

And the following season he would sign Wayne Routledge for 25 mil, whilst Liverpool & the rags fought it out over Ki Sung-Yueng.
