Was Man United a watershed?

[Marc Overmars]

I don't think we can really use the "top 3 have more resources than us" excuse for how dire the performances have been over the past 6 weeks. It's not their fault we play Ramsey and Podolski as wingers, our captian is an accident waiting to happen or our LB is a clown and so on. These are managment issues and that's what Wenger is rightly being hammered for.

There is a level of understanding I think towards the financial aspect because it's obvious we can't throw around the sort of money the top 3 can, but when problems reguarly manifest on-field you've got to look closer to home.
