Not a United preview

[EverBlue92]

3-1 Utd as we just dont perform against the top 6.

For me I would go 3 at the back and hit them on the counter.

 

[Zezti]

We had a good go at Arsenal. Think Man U are weaker than Arsenal to be honest but you know Rom will score against us.

And without going too off-topic I feel we could do with a thread for general discussion for topics which don't really need their own thread.

 

[COYBL25]

There isn`t really a better time to be playing Utd.

The fans are divided over Jose.

Jose hates the world.

The team plays like a collection of individuals, who can`t be arsed most of the time.

Their central defence is that bad, that Keane would get in there at the mo.

We`ll get beaten, with Lukaku scoring the winner.

 

[Darth Toffeeman]

we are going to have to stop lukaku, and if we manage that then we will have to stop rashford, and if we manage that then we will have to stop martial, and if we manage that then we have to stop sanchez, and if we manage that then we will have to stop pogba, and if we manage that then we will have to stop mata.

the way utd played in the second half against Newcastle just shows you how dangerous they can be

it's going to be tough

Of course. But if they give up space to Bernard and Sigurdsson, which Palace smothered on the edge of the box, they will be picking the ball out of the net too.

 

[deipnosophist]

Unlikely to win...I think the bookies giving us a 20% chance are pricing it correctly.

 

[maccavennie]

We'll get beat there because 99.9% of the time we always do.

But we won't go there fearing them, they are a shadow of the utd sides of old. I'd take a point beforehand but I think it would be nice to just go there, carry a threat and have them worrying about us for a change instead of the other way round

 

[D410]

The speed of our play will need to be a lot faster vs Utd and that also mean retaining possession when we get the ball....

 

[DanB90]

I’d love a result. But I won’t be disheartened if we approach the game in a positive manner and play some good football.

 

[mmmmsnouts]

As long as they don’t go in there and get their bellies rubbed for 90 minutes I can deal with just about any result.

 

[Huyton Layne]

If we can score 2 past Palace we can score 3 past United. They've conceded 16 goals this season and Palace only 11. Hopefully the goals we score are enough to win it. We need to keep beating the teams lower than us in the league

 

[PickeringBlue]

We'll need to come out ready in the first half and score a couple. United stink when they play Mou's defensive style. Once they are behind and start throwing caution to the wind their attacking players tend to show their skill. We'll have to weather a storm at the end if we're up. If we're going to beat them, it'll be now. Will be helpful that they have a game mid-week as well.

 

[GwladysBlue]

I actually think this game will suit us better than the likes of Palace at home. They will attack us and not park the bus. We can then unleash: Bernard, Lookman, Richarlison and Sigurdsson on their woeful defence.

 

[Pittsburgh Footy]

Our performance at Arsenal has me looking forward to this match. We deserved something from that match

We won't just play anti-football looking to maybe perhaps nick a point.

We'll play to win the game.

As long as we do that, I really can't be arsed about the result.

 

[SiEdmo]

pretty much want what other people are saying, go and have a good go at them, get them uncomfortable, play to win
and then I don't care about the result, as soon as teams start worrying about 90mins against us, that's when we will start to take 3 points from said games

 

[Connor]

2-1 United but there will plenty of positives for us.

Just hope people don't let a possible defeat ruin what's been built upon in the past three games.
