Comments on: Treble? Manchester United’s season could still collapse http://blogs.reuters.com/soccer/2011/04/07/treble-manchester-uniteds-season-could-still-collapse/ World Soccer views and news Sun, 19 May 2013 10:04:01 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.4.2 By: sunehrigal http://blogs.reuters.com/soccer/2011/04/07/treble-manchester-uniteds-season-could-still-collapse/comment-page-1/#comment-357252 sunehrigal Wed, 13 Apr 2011 23:36:46 +0000 http://blogs.reuters.com/soccer/?p=18749#comment-357252 Funny how nobody seems to mention that, for all this fancy treble talk, we could very easily end up with nothing! I'm not being pessimistic or anything. How can I be with the way we're playing at the moment? But we all know matches can be decided in split seconds and, in the cups especially there is little or no margin for error. Realistically, I'd settle for the Premiership only. A chance like this to be the official overall best team in England might never present itself again. As for the FA Cup, it would hurt to get beat by City (of all teams) and, having not won it since 2004, I really wanted it this year. But it's a one-off at Wembley and who knows what can happen? And IF we get past Schalke or Inter, hand on heart, who realistically could say that we'd be favourites against Barca or Real? No, let's not be too greedy. The PL title would suffice for me. http://www.thenewsnation.com/ Funny how nobody seems to mention that, for all this fancy treble talk, we could very easily end up with nothing!

For the record, I don't think United will win the treble, but I still think they could win two competitions - although I'm not sure which.
