"But with Joe you never rule him out"

I have no doubt that Liverpool will want to finish he season on a strong note.Them having the pressure off their back could also turn into a positive thing.

And is he paying for it?

In Brazil according to Eddie. Which probably means he starts on Sunday.

Thank fook. The issue isn't Manure (basket case as they are) it's him.

I wouldn't want Rashford anywhere near us , aside from being hugely overrated he's lazy as fuck and a few decent games for Villa hasn't changed that.

As irritating as it is, that comeback against Lyon was almost like their name was on the cup.

I think he's the perfect fit for us but I think you're being optimistic when you say he wouldn't cost a fortune. He also seems very 'London'. Not sure he'd fancy a move up north

Looks like you had it done down the market by that bloke that prints his own t-shirts. Looking forward to the NUFC x Sting and NUFC x Ant & Dec collab.

Why is Sam Fender all over our shirts out of curiosity?

Not sure why people are getting so wound up Man United won. You could tell they had the name on that trophy after the Lyon game and it has been proven countless times over the last few years that they are still capable of winning trophies despite how shit they have been due to the huge resources and wealth they have over pretty much everyone else barring Man City and Chelsea . The only annoying part about it is that it gets them back into the champions league .

Tricky games for everyone this weekend.

I’m hoping all this stuff about Liverpool being average champions, had it easy etc actually gets them in the mindset to finish strong.

It’s good that Forest are faltering. The fixtures have dropped nicely for Chelsea in terms of their Man U and Liverpool fixtures. That’s 4-6 points imo. If they can beat one of us or Forest that will secure CL for them - maybe even just 1 draw. I’ve long felt 68 points would seal it for us and sticking with that.

Losing you mean?

Anger is directed towards manager, because he cannot buy a whole new team. He has to find a way to get most out of your current players. That is what good managers do. Maybe next season he will improve them, I dont know. The core of the team will still be the same next season. And with money most likely being spent again loads next season (Cunha rumoured already), of course expectations has to be high. If you don't make it to UCL, your team loses money. UCL is what is expected from ManU. Hell, Nottingham, Newcastle and maybe Villa are going there!

I can understand people's concerns. The opta probability says 84 percent but that can swing significantly after just one game week. The Brighton game is an amazing opportunity. Win that and it feels nigh on impossible that we fail to qualify. We should go into that game with such mindset and should not think of it as a 'free hit'. That term gives me awful memories of Pardew's team going to Spurs in 2012 and getting pumped 5-0!!!

I never said we played well though did I? I said we deserved to win. 10 man Lyon, 5 man Lyon, it doesn't matter. We won, and deserved to win. Lyon didn't do enough to beat us. I think the team has a lot of good players, but some poor ones. Money has been spent horrifically over the last few years, but I don't agree at all that it was spent poorly in the summer, which is an opinion a lot of people seem to have. De Ligt, Ugarte, Mazraoui and Zirkzee will play a big part in improving this team. The windows before that though? Absolute disaster. I'm reserving judgement on Amorim. He came in November, and did not want to come mid-season but was given an ultimatum. He was open and honest right away, and has continued to be, and said that we would face an extremely difficult season. "The storm will come. We will be found out." That has ended up being the case, but he has said over time we will improve and get back to where we want to be. We'll give him the time that he deserves. There won't be expectation on him to start being a CL contender next season, but a huge improvement is the absolute minimum. Let's give him a chance instead of writing him off within 6 months. We all know this club was/is a shit show, so it's going to take time. I understand this, but I don't see why the anger has to be directed towards a manager. Amorim didn't hand £1.2m a week to Casemiro, Sancho, Rashford and Mount. Amorim didn't sign Antony for £80m. I personally love Amorim's approach. Refreshingly honest, but extremely high standards for players. I believe at the very least, he can give us a side that dies for the badge. For the fans, removing the toxicity from the club is 100x more important than a trophy.

Rashford ticks very few boxes for us, signing him makes very little sense.

Can someone work their magic so I can on please, cheers! We’ve won the most league games along with Liverpool (14) since Brentford away playing a game less - 74% win ratio - mental

Eddie Howe isn't signing Rashford in a million years, free or not

Rashford on a three year contract for a low fee could still be a £40m+ commitment. We would likely make him our highest earner, and the deal could potentially drive up wages for other squad members. It's still a significant risk, particularly for a guy that has questionable workrate and doesn't necessarily suit Eddie's style. Of course, if he could rekindle his 22/23 form it would be a no brainer, but that is questionable.
