Manchester Utd (A) Pre Match Thread

[Alan Harper's Tash]

seeing that lukaku hasn’t been scoring regularly now I think he will score against us

My guess is that PEG will drop Lookapoo and play the Swedish Andy Carroll to lump balls to and hope he can bring in Martial and Lingard to counter us.
This will be hailed as a PEG masterclass if it works.

Correct, he had equalised in the last 10 minutes too with his first touch. To be fair, the disallowed one was the correct decision, blatant handball by Anelka.

We have had a couple of relatively late equalisers at OT, the aforementioned Goater header and a Sir Joseph of Barton deflection a few years later, but not a late winner against them for ages.

Howey scored an 84th min goal in a 1-1 in 2001

The key is discipline to this game. We have to keep our heads at all times. The longer it goes on drawing or us in front they will be trying every trick in the book. Dirty horrible shites, the lot of them.

Rags ain't appealing Pogbads card.

Ederson

Walker - Kompany - Otamendi - Delph

Fernandinho

Sterling - D.Silva - KDB - Sane

Jesus

Aguero on the bench for me. Missing too many chances atm, and just think Jesus brings more to our overall game.

Aguero missing chances but Jesus isn’t? GJ missed 2 v Saints...

Herrera in for Pogshit and he's a horrible little @@@@

Am adding a touch of positivity before we all become to morose about the game.
I think we will see a display akin to the Chelsea away game and i hope for a better return of goals.

I thought same. Against united I want us to do what we did against Chelsea. If you recall, Delph and Walker were quite conservative in their forward forays compared to previous games. This was aimed at limiting exposure to Hazard and Morata. I think if we can contain Lukaku, Lizard and Martial in a similar way we shouldn't have problems picking up maximum points.

De Gea made 2nd most saves in the league only Fabianski (Swansea) has more that's shocking.

We'll get plenty of chances no doubt.

Herrera in for Pogshit and he's a horrible little @@@@

Never mind being the most horrible, annoying, ugly little **** they have, he is also immensely Un-talented.
Him in midfield is a huge blessing. United fans all over him this year saying he's been awful, and to be fair if he wasn't spanish he would be in the championship

Get the ball popped around him, the wardrobe that is Matic, and in at this pathetically over rated back 5 they have.

Pogba deffo banned, rags chose not to appeal
