After the defeat at West Ham tonight, Manchester United's hope of securing a Champions League spot for next season becomes somehow difficult for them as a club. They are just one point better than 5th placed Liverpool at the moment and at the rate at which Liverpool is winning games we might finish the season with United disqualified from playing in Football's most prestigious competition come next season.
The chance is still there and very big with the current conditions they are still above with 1 point and 1 game remaining but the problem is that now cannot be used as a benchmark if their performance continues like this.
Like it or not, Manchester United must get out of their current condition because to be honest it is very troubling.
They've had many opportunities but they always fail to capitalize on them.
