Man u have very sturdy looking attack which Chelsea lacks. It is a big advantage they have over Chelsea. It will be interesting to see their formation against Chelsea on the 21st.

I think its just the X-Factor so to speak. ManU may not always look the better side but they have it in them to produce goals and get results.. They are definitely a well-coordinated side as khassa said but they'll need more than that to get their season on track...

I think one of the things that United have is that they aren't afraid of the last 5 or 6 minutes of a match. The fact that a football match lasts 90+ minutes seems to be drilled into the players by Ferguson and the players act accordingly.

Most teams just try to shut up shop around the 83 minute mark. United don't - which is why they win so many matches in the last couple of minutes.

In fact, you can see the same thing happening with ex-United captain Roy Keane at Sunderland. Sunderland  would have been relegated if it hadn't been for the points they picked up in the last 5 or 10 minutes of matches.

Thats a very good point you made there nick..Unlike most teams, Manchester United are very good second half players in general. And like you said, they keep at it till the very end and so often thats the difference between champions and mid-table teams..

Man U are a great team, that fact speaks for itself.  What they have is a confidence in themselves that they can do anything.  They also have the greatest "team" and that helps too.
