    Opinions
    Opinions on here change more than canto changes his gender.

    Throughout last season:

    a) Berbatov is shit, and deserves to be sold.
    b) Nani is the worst player ever, and deserves to take a running jump. The ****.
    c) Tevez is better than Berbatov.
    d) Fergie knows best
    e) Greatest squad ever
    f) We need a proven goalscorer

    Be happy to say more if you do so wish.

    After the end of the season, and thus the summer:

    a) Berbatov is an amazing footballer, and will shine this season.
    b) This is Nani's season.
    c) Tevez is the worst player ever, just because people think he's a **** now.
    d) Fergie knows nothing, how dare he not sign Benzema.
    e) We have a shit midfield, shit defence, shit strikeforce, and a bad future 'keeping options.
    F) Get linked with a proven goalscorer and people say we need a winger.

    Be happy to say more if you do so wish.

    Make up your mind.

    I think everybody has their opinions on each subject above and has remained consistent with them. opinions will differ, that's what makes a forum, but I can't think of any specific posters who have changed their minds on anything. Do you have any examples?

    Without going through the entire list....

    you could mix each one to get an accurate picture:

    a) Berbatov is an amazing footballer, but a repeat of last season would probably mean he should be sold (likewise b) Nani, caveat potentially)

    d) Fergie knows best but the lack of transparency / aparent inertia is concerning people

    Good post though: shows how the media, performances in key games, and sometimes just mood can affect fans' views

    I haven't changed my opinions at all.

    Never rated Tevez, always thought Nani was going downhill, always knew Berba is world class and I never thought this was the best squad ever.

    just so we're clear.....

    a) Berba is class as good on the ball as anyone we've got, but £30m strikers are about goals, lots of
    b) Nani's done it in flashes - needs to step it up a notch or four
    c) Tevez is a workhorse that pops up with the odd goal - and is a greedy c**t
    d) lack of transparency concerns me slightly - but i still trust in SAF
    e) squad was up there - and with everyone playing to potential, who knows....??
    f) I personally think we need both - in the absence of one player that could fill both roles

    To put it another way, I will be surprised if things change and opinions don't. For example, a graphical representation for general opinions for Tevez may look like this and would only be normal:

    ........ ...... ......

    And sometimes, opinions may not have actually changed even though some negative things were commented. For example, some may be left high and dry or even disappointed and frustrated with Fergie for not landing Benzema but I am sure it is not because they think he has past it.

    There was never a good comment about Nani when he played last season. Or even when he never.

    Now there isn't a bad comment to be seen.

    What is the general consensus on our current team/squad. I know i struggle to stop my opinion changing at every turn.
    When we play as well as we often do it is hard to criticise but i do think we are slightly lacking quality in midfield and depth in attack.

    Of course we want him to succeed. Do you think Im sad enough to want him to be shit so I can say 'I told you so'?
    We want him to do well and there is some potential there. Its just my personal opinion that he wont be a success at United.
    People are allowed to change their minds on things if they like. Im one who normally sticks to my guns, but I can admit when Im wrong about something, not that that happens very often
