After Sir Alex Ferguson had officially retired from coaching since last summer, it has been a really hard time for most of the united fans, if is not all. David Moyes has succeed the legendary manager, signed a 6 years contract that signify the club need stability and he is here for a long time to come.

For those who dont really watch football, I just want you to know that, in the footballing world, we do have a time frame for you to do shopping, something we call it as transfer market but this is not the wet market you use to went with your mom, but a place or a time for football clubs to buy or sell their players either to improve themselves or to generate revenue. And yes, for the last transfer market, we, Manchester United, did not do really well, we've been linked with all the big names in football but we just could't get hold of it.I understand that the club is in a transition whereby when new manager come in, he need time to settle in, allow his colleagues to know his working style but for a club that has enjoy enormous success over the years, not all of the fans are patience enough.
Fans started to moan when things doesn't go our way, we couldn't get the players we want, the results are against us. Seriously, I don't remember a time where my confident is so low going into every matches, watching from my tv, knowing there's a big chance that we can't win this game, we lose faith on this post-Sir Alex Ferguson's Man Utd. As of 24th Jan 2014, we lies on 7th place, 14 points off the current leader, Arsenal. And last year we won the league with 11 points advantage, things change so rapid in a few months, we are not so dominant anymore.
Everyone seem to be pointing fingers to David Moyes, but sometimes when I sit back and think, the manager do what he can, motivate players, assign training schedule, team selection and stuffs. He do everything except playing on the field, and we are actually losing games on the field itself, and who's on the field? Is the players. Why are they play like shit? Some of you might argue that, this is the same group of players that won the championship last year, the only changes in this summer is we recruit Marouane Fellaini and a change of manager. So, things that goes wrong must be the manager or the new recruit, the old players cant be blame, they never change. Hmmm...
The decline of Manchester United is not happen on a single night, we already going down slope when we hit the peak on year 2009, especially after Cristiano Ronaldo had left. Sir Alex's magic is the only reason why we are still hanging at the top and now after he had gone, everything goes back to where it should be, after all, not everyone in the Manchester United team actually deserve to put on the famous red jersey. Some of the current players are just not good enough to be a Manchester United's player. Who are they?

| Danny Welbeck. He can miss chances that even our grandma can score. |

| Ashley Young. My dad used to call him as vase. Because both of them are the same, it serve as a decoration purpose only |
Of course they are a few more that some of the fans will think they don't fit in or never belong to this team, I just can't list it all out, too many of them. Unmotivated player, failed to live up to expectation players, players that failed to unleash their potential, so many ways to describe them. As a united fans, I must look ahead, this might be the darkest hours in Manchester United's Premier League era, but I know the dawn is not too far away. We have players that are coming back from treatment table, players as influential as Wayne Rooney and Robin Van Persie. I don't want to experience what Liverpool's fans had gone through over the last 20 years, I believe we can bounce back and David Moyes can turn things around if he is given enough time to make changes. I miss the old united team that boosted with World Best Player, my all time favourite Cristiano Ronaldo, but I need to keep my faith on the current one, we need to show our rivals that we are not done yet, just wait and we will catch up soon enough.

With United going through this transition phrase, I have friends who mock about this team all the time, the team has become a laughing stock. And they are people who even come and ask me, will I support the other team instead? Hmm... Let put it this way, I shall a post about this question on 9gag before I have to agree with this, it say "It is easy for a man to change his date and not the team he support"
Before I stop here, I sincerely hope Manchester United will bounce back strongly and get back to the winning ways. Glory Glory Man Utd! Stop losing! :')
Au revoir~
