The only real threat Man Utd have had in the last 5 or so years has been Chelsea who have had a good share of problems with managers and the owner. Mourinho won back to back titles in his first two seasons at Chelsea before the poor relations with Roman the following season.
@TAZ - You are missing the point here. All I'm saying is that the closest team to Man United is 19 points and 31 goals behind. The rest are more worse off. And yet people can only talk about how badly off Man United is and the collapsing of a dynasty - that is joint top on points (more points than have won the league most seasons). Get my drift?
Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.
