They have the same worries. Playing Thursday night Europa League semifinals is also draining. As someone posted above, we play mainly mid table teams with nothing to play for. We can always worry but we can also recognize that this is an opportunity that will probably never surface again. Next season are we going to be at least 8p above with 6 matches remaining and still going strong in all the cups? We have our issues (especially the forward position), so all the cups will be tough, but I'm not worried about the league. We have more than enough to get over the line. Pep will play strong team against Aston Villa (without Grealish) to win early and save ourselves for the League Cup final. From then United are going to drop points, especially with Liverpool soon out of Europe and Leicester already out.

Rags got two games in hand as well could be close this. Arrogance might be our downfall.

Peps arrogance.

Not ours.

What pisses me off with Pep is he is always responsible for our defeats.

Yeah i know you take the rough with the smooth, he wins us a shit load, and you will always lose games.

We never lose with our best 11 on the Pitch, so you think "You know what fair enough".

It is Pep getting bored with winning,

He actually does better when we have players out injured and the team literally picks it self.

La porte was out injured.

Dias and Stones form an incredible understanding and partnership. We go an insane amount of games with not even conceding a goal. Pep gets bored, soon as La porte is back from injury, he starts fucking about again. We scrape through with narrow wins, but we start conceding, when we were not conceding.

That abomination in Lyon when we saw our Bench at the end was mind boggling.

When KDB came back from injury i thought he was going to give him a cardiac arrest the amount of game time he was getting whilst clearly unfit.

KDB gets up to speed. Rediscovers his form

We finish against 10 man Leeds with KDB on the Bench. Game was screaming for his creativity.

really dont get him sometimes. We have won fuck all yet.

I’ll say this for them they aren’t giving up and the number of times they are losing and win is crazy. They’ve got great team spirit if nothing else.

Im glad we have got the gap we have and wouldn’t swap.

They do have that for sure. I knew they would win within 5 mins of second half starting. We just need to do what we need to do and forget about other teams

I sincerely hope so. PM after Villa and Palace, and if City win both those games, you can take the piss. But even after the next 2 games, there are still 12 points to play for, which is still enough for United to do the unimaginable, and win the title, after we have been 17 points in-front of them.

No desire to take the piss mate (other than at the losers in second place come the end of the season.).

We’ve lost two games in our last 28 fixtures. We’d have to lose three of our remaining six fixtures to blow the league. Not going to happen.

Take your point, but not strictly true ... for example, if we won 2, drew 2 & lost 2 then Utd could afford to draw one & still win the league.

Wasn't arrogant, we had enough chances to win 3 matches, our rotation has got us in a great position,I keep seeing arrogant, it's bollocks, we have 2 "finals" in the next week ,we have to protect the players if we didn't we would be fucked now, as it is we are going into a must win week fresh and raring to go

You've got to be joking right?
The priorities are the CL and the PL.
You don't sacrifice either for the league cup or an FA Cup semi-final.

We definitely don’t rest 7 players because no matter how good we are changing that many against a very dangerous team who went toe to toe with us last year is fucking stupid and all it has done is just put pressure on us when it was not needed and if we do win the title this season we better sign a top striker because next season will be very difficult as both Utd and Liverpool and Chelsea will strengthen and one of them could have haaland up front .

You can panic and flap and get hysterical all you want, but hopefully you'll do it quietly so the rest of us don't have to put up with you trying to wind everyone up for the next 3 weeks.

80-1 that United win the league, if you think we're going to lose it, make yourself a fortune.

It's a forum. I can flap as much as I want. If you feel wound up by my comments, concerns and flapping, put me on ignore, if that option is available on BM?
 
Its like a fucking gift for them to be behind as they start playing better/more focused not a mental block on them for sure.

We need to do our own business, Leeds bullshit is done, no more mistakes in PL.

8 points lead is huge, I am only worried that we have games coming up quickly, all cup games can cost us big (a trophy), and Sterling and Jesus are in really awful for while Kun is nowhere.
Imagine if they have been firing goals.

Some goals will still come from Foden, KDB, Gundo, Mahrez maybe, but the 3 main goalscorer we have in Kun, Jesus, Sterling are not helping us at the moment.

Momentum is a huge thing end of season when games have much bigger stake, a fuck up vs Dortmund can have very bad effect on us, look at the Lyon disappointment last season, good we did not have any games after that.

Big run of fixtures ahead of us, Pep needs to be perfect and the players need to raise their game.
