It's an old but relevant cliche but anything can happen.
I thought beating the brum was a dead cert, but look what happend.
I didn't think Man U would lose to Spurs but look what happend.
We have the ability and the mental strength to win it but so many things are out of our control. What is most important is that the future is in our hands and we dont have to rely on other results. I think v persie could be a huge boost for us, and walcott has recently shown glimpsys of his raw ability, IF walcott continues to play well, IF Rosicky and V.Persie comes and play well, IF we dont have any more freak injurys IF Bendtner and Ade start passing to eachother, THEN we definatly have a very good chance.
We have proven that we can beat anyone, but we have also proven that we can slip up against anyone.
How confident are we of winning the silverware

You are kidding me rightsouthampton gooner wrote:New boss ???? fcuk off ! !
If some player go then fuck um I don't think many will want to go they all respect AW to much. I think if we dont win anything Gallas may go, don't know why but think he wants to win and if he don't with us he may go Italy or spain.
As for do I think we will win anything? I go in to every game thinking we are going to loose and never think we will win a trophy, that way I dont feel so let down when we dont. So I don't think we will win anything but I'm not a gooner cos I we win. I'm a gooner till I die even if we never win another trophy. But I would so love to win 1 this year please, please I promise god I wil eat all my greens and wont look at the milf over the road ever again.
After the stick you gave me the other night about being negative and it turns out that you are "one of us" 
For what it is worth I agree that years of experience has taught for me to hope for the best but fear for the worst and I have to admit that I do not see us winning the league this season 
As I have stated many times this season the lack of strength in depth causes me great concern plus I am not convinced that we have enough leaders to pull the team together after recent events and drive us forward - hope I am wrong thoughFor all of the millions and millions that United have spent they've got to as many CL finals as Arsenal and we achieved it on a a shoe string budget. We got to the final, played football with 10 men and unluckily lost. United were slaughted by Bayern back in '99 and some how fluked a win.
Benitez has a better CL record than Fergie and that's in what. 5 years compared to United's 15 attempts. Mourinho did as much at Porto with peanuts. Villa, Forest and Liverpool achieved more than United who have marginally faired better than Arsenal and our admittedly poor showings over the years.
Let the misguided United fools believe their own fallacy of what a great European team they are.

I am afraid I'm not very confident. The events at Brum and the way we were portrayed as the guilty party remind us all how much hatered we attract and may be the unintended inspiration for an unlikely victory.
But, candidly, I can see us being mugged at the San Siro and falling back to third in the League come May.
Problem is we are running out of players and ideas.
Those of us begging Wenger to strengthen the squad last August when he could have, are probably going to be proved right.
Will he get the message and act this coming summer ? Or will we sit back and watch everyone else make the changes whilst Wenger remains stuck in denial ?
I fear I know the answer to that one too. Although I'd be delighted to be shown up as wrong, come the end of this season and the start of next.
