Here's my top 5 for entertainment value;

1. Arsenal
2. West Ham
3. Man Utd
4. Blackburn
5. Leeds/liverpool tie
 
Fulham and Newcastle i would have in there!
Not sure on that West Ham one though?
 
1. Man Utd
2. Newcastle
3. Fulham
4. Arsenal
5. Man City (for the sheer comedy of it all)
 
Can't say we have been all that entertaining this season. I dare not make the list right now.

Thats a huge understatement!

Out football is shite, we are losing our tradition of being entertainers fast.
 
1. Arsenal
2. Spurs
3. Newcastle (for their swings in form)
4. Boro (for their sheer quality in defence)
5. Wolves (for their unbelievable swing from top of the league last season to approaching relegation zone this season)

United are somewhere on my top 10 list, but slowly being dumped out. They still show some entertaining form in the CL but i think that will also soon disappear if nothing is done fast.
 
Number 1. Not because we play the best of football all of the time either, although when we do play at our best it is beautiful to watch.

It's the times when we play shit that it can be the most exciting. Look at the Everton game for example - cringing, cringing, willing the lads on, then a few minutes to go, goal, then another, and yes, another. It's exciting - like being on a roller coaster.

It's the knowledge that we are unpredictable - 26/05/99 is a good example. <img src="graemlins/devil.gif" border="0" alt="[Devil]" />

Personally, i think we have become predictably mediocre.

That makes the great moments all the sweeter. United's the most entertaining team in my book. I don't even watch any other team play any more.
 
I've certainly found Arsenal's last two games entertaining :D
I really don't believe you lot - If you are really United fans then there really is only one entertaining team - even if we are not playing well we are the only team I ever want to watch. <img src="graemlins/keano.gif" border="0" alt="[Keano]" />

United are the team i prefere to watch but i'll watch Arsenal or other teams if it looks like a good game; dont see how that makes me not a real united fan?...

I think any realist knows that the football we are playing at the moment is just simply not the swashbuckling stuff we have been used to in the last 10 years or so. The Cantona/kanchelskis era was at times breathtaking, some brilliant games were played, real edge of the seat stuff, thats simply just not there anymore. Of course there are moments of greatness such as the odd beckham free kick but all in all its some pretty drap stuff we are playing right now.
 
United r just a class above all. at times so beautiful to watch you could write a whole romantic novel on it. The passion, spirit, drama...brilliant!!!!! n ruuuud takin all those penalties. Keano barkin his ass off. Verons delicate chip, Bekchams free kick, Scholes one two. Barthez's Saves. Larrys headers...n the list goes on...

unfortunately romantics often fail to see the plain old truth - what you call a night of passionate lovemaking i call a feck.
