Manchester United Doomsday Nears For Some
Some have already moved the Manchester United doomsday clock closer to midnight. They point out that recent performances and results are enough to suggest that Manchester United's Premier League's title defence is already becoming an big uncertainty.
But they are wrong.
And they have been wrong before. These are the same people that said, in March this year, that Arsenal were going to sweep everything before them and that Manchester United should begin thinking about next season.
But football is a strange game. It is unpredictable. Very unpredictable sometimes. It sometimes does all come down to how you play on the day, not the form you carry to the game.
That certain people say that the Arsenal and Chelsea's lead on the table mean that Manchester United should relinquish their crown now, is a disgrace. Once again, it's all about building up hype. Because hype grabs attention. Attention grabs audiences. And audience grabs money. And that's all that matters to them really.
United's failure to win a game in the last week has however raised some eyebrows. It also emphasises the importance of Ronaldo in the team. While he made his comeback during the week, he is still not fully match fit. This is what many people have forgotten. No player can come back from injury (or an operation for that matter) and be expected to star in the game and run circles around players. Even superstars are humans.
So when some critics see Ronaldo and his inability to make some sort of impact of which he capable, they panic and start moving the doomsday clock. The only doomsday clock that should be moving is the one signalling the end of such critics, who just create hype all along for no reason, while distorting the facts.
I'm also referring to those journalists that, before a big game such as the one between United and Chelsea at the weekend, proclaimed that this could be the match that decided the season. What nonsense! They couldn't be further from the truth. Unless you've been able to travel forward in time and seen the outcome of the season, then you should in no circumstances be in the position to say something ridiculous like that.
Many people believe in the hype. It does do wonders for ratings and revenue. However, there are far more hyped up games that have turned out to be fizzers than those that turned out to live up to the hype.
So, please, don't believe the hype. Manchester United is not gone, they're just warming up. They will be at their best when it counts. This is shaping up as another exciting and memorable season.
