Yes but we've all seen Barca play to their best, and regularly so. That isn't the case with United so you can't make that point.

What are you judging that on "the best of their ability" and more shame then if utd players dont do that.
You cant even argue that a year ago these leicester players were nobodies because most utds players a year or two ago were nobodies or having mares...martial was unknown,lindgard, rashford, smalling, fosu mensah...I mean you still play players like blind and fellaini(who was really good against everton in fairness)

United have disappointed this season no doubt about that. The players have to take their fair share of the blame.
I just think that as individuals that United have the better players and to be fair they should have companring the relative spend of the two clubs.
I am not arguing that the Leicester players are nobodies as they are clearly not but it would not be too far from the truth to say they are a team of journeymen with two or three really good players having outstanding seasons.
I am not discrediting them at all and they have done fantastically but I would be surprised if they did this next season. I think they'll do similar to Blackburn back in the 90's following their league win.

That's the problem. Barring a few games here and there we haven't looked that good in truth and ultimately that is down to the manager.
Credit must also go to the manager at Leicester as well and if they are so good this year then they themselves must have been underachieving for most of last season.
No doubt about it the best team over the season wins the league but I don't think Leicester will be up there next season. I'm happy to be wrong on that but don't think I will be.
Diafol
No I don't think Leicester will either. Mainly because I feel integral players will leave this summer and being able to keep up the unity and form into next season will be incredibly hard. Even the bigger sides struggle to retain their title.
My point was that it's a bit redundant to say United have the potential to be this good because we currently don't have a manager who can get the most out of the squad.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
I agree with you. LVG hasn't, so far, managed to get the best out of this squad. We've seen glimpses but nowhere near enough.
Compare that to Leicester who have been consistent for over a year now and it's clear they are getting the most out of their players.
I still think we should be expecting to beat Leicester at home though even if they are top. I'd expect to beat anyone at home really but accept it won't be easy. It won't be easy for Leicester either though IMO.
I think we can win it and our home form suggests we do well, but equally Leicester's league position and away form shows why they should be confident too. But like I said if it were City or Chelsea coming 7 points clear and a win away from winning the league I think people would think very differently.
I said last night the Spurs result will probably change Leicester's mood going into our game. Either they'll be freed up and be able to enjoy themselves and play well or they'll know deep down a defeat isn't all that bad. But seeing as their positive attitude has got them this far I think they'll actually go into the game buzzing.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
a large amount of Leicesters success has come from Vardy's ability to run all day and put pressure on the oppositions back 4 when the ball goes forward.
They hit teams on the break and have done so very well nearly all season and they know that every time that ball is cleared forward Vardy will be either on to it or sniffing around and not giving the CB's a minutes peace.
Vardy missing the game gives it a whole new dimension though as Ulloa wont give them that option.

Again read what I said, i never mentioned over any period of time. I said 1 or 2 years ago. 2 years ago utd came of their worst season in years. Blind is average i dont care what you say, god knows what his position is.
And again the GD and watching utd this year its hard to get caught out at the back when you dont chuck too many players forward.
And still has nothing to address the "ability of players"
This season I would only take martial and maybe de gea over the leicester team, players who could still improve.

Blind is average at best, I dont really care that your back four has been the second best defense, you rarely bomb on and get caught out at the back and have de gea and several reasons that contribute to that, and have had a great season defensively. But what was your record defensively last year anyways?
Again martial a couple years ago was unknown, read what I said please, and monaco, where did they get in the CL?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
we conceded 37 in the league last season... hardly a horrific amount
----------------------------------------------------------------------
you have a GD of 12 this year man cmon. Playing to ability
----------------------------------------------------------------------
you didnt ask that though did you.
you said over the last couple of seasons Smalling and Blind havent been very good.
the lack of goals weve conceded suggests that theyve been 2 of our best players over that period.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Again read what I said, i never mentioned over any period of time. I said 1 or 2 years ago. 2 years ago utd came of their worst season in years. Blind is average i dont care what you say, god knows what his position is.
And again the GD and watching utd this year its hard to get caught out at the back when you dont chuck too many players forward.
And still has nothing to address the "ability of players"
This season I would only take martial and maybe de gea over the leicester team, players who could still improve.
