He was allowed to spend, it's his own stupid fault that he had all summer to bring in the players he wanted and all he got was Marouane Fellaini plus I don't think any good players wanted to play for him.

I agree with this, and I stand by that he wasnt that bad a manager he just had a really bad 2nd season.

I agree with this tho. Fabregas I know for a fact was being lined up to sign when Fergie announced he was leaving and they spent like 6 months including most of the summer trying to persuade him to play for Moyes

It's almost as if points after 13 games is a loving meaningless stat and points after 38 are what count. Its not out of the question for arsenal, Liverpool and Spurs to have a collapse, but I wouldn't bet against united making GBS threads the bed either at this point.

Arsenal will invariably have a stretch of awful form, but I don't think it will be as bad as it has been in recent years. The squad has more depth than it has had in years, and Arsenal have been getting draws on days when they don't show up, rather than the customary humiliating defeat.

Well since we're drawing on tenuous links between prior manager's records, Mourinho is in big trouble and headed for the early sack, as that's exactly what happened the last time a United manager won the Community Shield against an unlikely participant and went on to get <39 points from 13 games.

Last year at this time a Mourinho had his team in 16th, sexually harassed the physio publicly, moaned through every presser and lost the dressing room. Now he's up to 6th, only 11 points behind the team he ruined last year and only done half the mental stuff.

The year before last at this time his club was in first and never looked back, all while doing the same stupid poo poo with the media. Makes you think.
