Need to smash these moaning scouse cunts tonight and start the charge.

Unbelievably shit ManUre team are now only 3 points behind ! (Maybe the team and Manager are not really as shit as we'd all like to believe!!)

Time to get our act together and win our games in hand to get our title challenge back on the road.

Must win game for the World Champions.

really tough game.

their form (league) is better that ours and they are really happy with low possession and playing on the break...which is where we always struggle...

get an early goal it changes the whole game but the longer it goes on without scoring the narrative becomes predictable and it will end up in one chance, one goal for them...

There can be zero complacency from the fans team or management. Walker needs to lead by example as he has been way off it recently and we need more creativity from midfield....

We are down in 5th as that is where our level is at present despite the 2 games in hand....1 win in 6 league games despite a hard run of games is a drop off in form....from the standards this team and manager has set.

We need to be better and we need to turn it around quickly if we are to out ourselves in a position to challenge for the league in the second half of the season.

Having said all that, watching our midfield at present it feels like a transition season.....the replacements arent at the level yet and the likes of Kovacic and Nunes feel like stop gaps or projects to develop for Pep....not sure which yet....

 

[The perfect fumble]

First time I've seen this, did Pep do a proper sit down pre match?

 

[Sleeping_Easy]

Rodri fit and Haaland on the bench apparently.

Where’s this from?

 

[chris85mcfc]

Expecting a tough game, an early goal would be ideal to quieten the crown down

 

[kaz7]

Rodri fit and Haaland on the bench apparently.

Says who ?

 

[Blue and true]

Is Haaland fit again?
