Sounds like Moyes tbh....

........Manchester United boss Ryan Giggs: "I feel flat. The players were flat and I don't know why. Credit to Sunderland they are in good form, and they created the best chances. We lacked that bit of quality in the final third.

"We were putting five or 10-yard passes astray and if you do that in the Premier League you get punished. We've had a problem at home all season, it's not been good enough."

average squad, we all knew it, ferguson knew it. just proves just how amazing he was as a coach, this is a better united team that what he had, let's remember with mata, fellaini and januzaj added. it was never an easy job for moyes, not just because he was replacing ferguson, it would have been tough for anyone.

Tell you what, if Chelsea beat Norwich and Arsenal don't slip up, the only thing happening on the final day will be the title race. Can't remember that happening before.

yep. just a few weeks back (6-7?) we had everything. 8 teams fighting relegation, 4 going for the title, 3 teams below them hoping to upset the top 4. it was just newcastle and soton with nothing to play for.

Can't even get drunk. Running in the Sunderland 10k tomorrow morning.
Oh well, will have to wait until tomorrow night.

I'm gobsmacked what we've done in the last two weeks.

Two games to go and we could even get over 41 points and we had 1 when Gus came in after seven games

Congrats from New Zealand...you are a proper football club

All it takes is for them two lose one game and suddenly it's Real's to lose!

it's done on head to head, not GD, so they can lose to barca, win their other two and title is guaranteed, regardless of what real do.

worth noting all top 3 seem to have bankers on the last game as well.

Looks like we could put 2 or 3 past city today, they look knackered!!!! Joe Hart is their weak link at times.

Well done Sunderland, so much for Giggs and playing the SAF way, going back to classical Man U play, Haha. Good on you Sunderland, a great result really enjoyed seeing that FT score and cheered.
