And NOW is the time to do it!
Manchester United are 20/1 for the Barclays Premier League with bookies after they lost 1-0 at home to Everton ... and when was the last time that happened?
It's only the start of December and the Red Devils - champions last year in a canter - are now 12 points behind leaders Arsenal.
David Moyes, who couldn't achieve an Everton win at Manchester United during his Goodison tenure, continued his woeful record in the fixture thanks to Bryan Oviedo's 86th-minute winner.
United are available at 20/1, with Arsenal the 9/4 second-favourites behind Manchester City at 6/4.
They remain third in the league, two points behind Chelsea.
Jose Mourinho's side are 3/1 chances to win another league title.
Alan Pardew has said this week he is ready to become "the new Sir Bobby Robson", and a win at Old Trafford would achieve something Sir Bobby never managed.
He was manager of Newcastle between September 1999 and August 2004.
His Newcastle v Man Utd record is in blue below.

IDEAL FOR CHRISTMAS
MAGPIES IN EUROPE -
HARVEY TO PARDEW
Although NUFC are not talking to the Chronicle or Sunday Sun ... we are!
And the full story is expected to be in newspapers this week.
The official new title is "Magpies In Europe - Harvey To Pardew" and is an up-dated version of "From Antwerp To Zurich" - which includes the 14 Europa League fixtures we played last season.
The 280-page book features match reports from the 134 European matches Newcastle United have played, starting with the memorable 4-0 win over Feyenoord in 1968 on our European debut.
Included are stats and the figures you would expect, but also each away fixture has the remarkable experiences of individuals who travelled to watch the matches.
Introduction by "Big Bad" John McNamee, part of the Fairs Cup winning team of 1969.
It is a fascinating history that every Newcastle United fan will enjoy.
And with a limited print-run, make sure you order a copy.
