Yeah, that's what I've found too. Even right down to the relegation fears as mentioned in my original post.

The relegation fears are hamming it up a bit. Even a United team as bad as this one will get a couple of wins between now and the end of the season and that’s all they’ll need. The collapse involved for it to happen would be hilarious however

Think everyone too confident about this one, every time I expect a result against them, they pump us.

Really hope we hammer these scabs, they are due a hiding from us.

Looking worse than bang average today.

How Dyche let them batter us ffs…..

The most important thing and the key right swimming this game, is not picking up an injury in training this week.

Bring Oviedo on.

I think they're so bad currently Ipswich could go to OT in 10 days and get a draw. They've just done that at Villa with 10 men for over a game. Wolves gave a decent account of themselves at the swamp and already beaten Man. United so they aren't just going to be rolled over at Old Trafford in the run in, will be a tight game and Cunha could decide it with a strike like today as he's as good as anything in their front three.

I think they've also got Leicester away three days after 2nd leg of Europa so might pick up more injuries and while Leicester are poor Van Nistelrooy will at least better prepare them given he was coaching the Man. United players four months ago.

I could actually see them losing most of their away games left. Happened at the back end of last season. They have six homes left and three of them against Arsenal, Man. City and Villa so think they'll struggle to get to 40 points.

Watching United v Spurs, they are terrible

Nothing to fear against ManU. Is Doucoure available or is it a two match ban?

Yes he'll be available but would keep him on the bench. Gana, Garner, Alcaraz is more than fine against them to start and Tim and Doucs will be serviceable enough changes for last 20 minutes.

Casemiro can't run anymore so Alcaraz should get plenty of joy off his shoulder.

Why would Branners want to play for these? Evertons future looks exciting, these look like they are going to take a long time to get back to anything close to being good.

A bouncing Goodison, no midweek game and confidence from the players and we’ll beat these, let’s just hope they don’t do something stupid and sack Amorim in midweek

Dyche is available

Think we’ll take these to the cleaners, home and dry Blues ..

Their bench today makes our options look fantastic. Are they that stuck for first teamers?
