I have this horrible feeling that as this is his last home game he may want to give a final appearance to some of his out going players as well, i'm not talking about them starting but maybe bringing them off the bench.

I think he may start with Yaya and one of Zabba or Kolarov. I suspect MDM may come off the bench late on.

Hope i'm wrong but I susect we will get turned over again. We need a win today nothing less, I'd go with 442 with Nacho and Aguero up top.

Zabba and Kolarov are injured.

Surprised you've not included Kompany and Silva to be honest?

The formation that kept not working is 442 away from home with Bony upfront and Nando and Yaya in a two.

The players didn't have to be savvy to be played in a 433/451 did they?

An 18 year old wouldn't have changed much? You missed his 13 goals and strike/assist rate second to none in the squad? Are you actually Pellers?

Fair enough, thought you were talking high at the back. Completely agree with you re-midfield 2 with yaya.
As for nacho, problem with the team was midfield and back 4 in the main. We may look back on nacho's gradual rise to regular place in a few years and be grateful we didn't burn him out, or place too many expectations on him.
Pellers I am not, not thick skinned enough to come on here if I was.

If my options are; walk along a path in the piss pouring rain or throw myself off the cliff to get out of the rain, then I'd state they are limited options. What I wouldn't do, is throw myself off the flaming cliff.

You can say limited options as much as you want, but I've posted on the pre game threads so many times ("I hope he doesn't do this or we are fucked...") only for him to then do that, and us get fucked. Making a mistake is easy enough, failing to learn from that mistake over and over again shows he's either a fucking idiot, or didn't give a fuck.

He's the nob that states "we don't change our style, we play the same way every game". And he's right, he does, that's why every manager in the league has worked out how to play us.

I can't think of five managers currently employed in the PL that I honestly think would have done worse over his tenure, given his resources. He's a fucking fraud and luckily, we have a manager coming in that will actually plan and train for each game to nullify the opposition and make the most of their weaknesses as opposed to simply think "we don't change, let them worry about us". That thinking should have died out in the 70's.

Stop coming on here talking sense!

I agree there are so many areas of weakness in our manager that it's fairly difficult to sum them up in a single or simple explanation. I have found him utterly bewildering on more than several occasions this season. In the beginning I used to attribute it to the odd brain fart.....that's now the norm and has been for 12 months.
 
And that's the end of that. Cheers Pellegrini, you won't be missed.

Not bothered one iota about playing Europa League and I hope we win it. I am bothered about the huge media party in coming when United get fourth.
 
I blame the higher ups.

Pellegrini should have been gone months and months ago.

At what point this season did anyone have faith in Pellegrini? He's a terrible manager.
 
Also the level of under achievement when United have been playing a front 3 of Rashford, Martial and Lingard for most of the season.

The manager should be strung up for this.
 
well, west ham to draw or beat united on wed,but its gone from our hands, we had the chance to make it 3-1 against arsenal but he didnt pass the ball and we blew it
