At the weekend I'll see it as a win win, Liverpool losing would be good but then so would Man-U losing, need some of their doylem fans to crawl back under the rocks from which they hid for years

Man-U win it, quality finish by Garnacho They just keep on winning

Of course Martinelli is scoring since I took him out of my FPL team

Liverpool take the lead And that's that cos Wolves aren't scoring

Got it Man-U will definitely win this, West Ham are done for

Is it not a replay?

How bloody jammy are Man-U, we try a billion corners and struggle to score and they get that Equaliser was inevitable, West Ham only have themselves to blame

Where have we seen this Casemiro scoring from a header before? Though, should be disallowed

Antonio ruined Martinez there but then selfishly went for goal

They are, playing well but Man-U have a goal in them so West Ham will need a second goal

There's the first Casemiro foul, wonder how many he'll manage without getting booked

Similar to the Japan one in the World Cup, probably looked out but wasn't

Think from a birds eye view it would be in (though can't say that for certain)

West Ham lead but VAR will probably disallow the goal

The new system (the one used at the WC and in the CL) that will be used from next season looks much better as it isn't reliance on a bloke with a mouse, who can move the lines to benefit to determine the outcome they want

Good to see others recognised how good he is, seen the odd stuff from our fans saying he wasn't all that, clearly I watched a different game The midfield wasn't an issue yesterday, it was the defence in key moments and the attack I shared the stat in the match thread but Bruno completed more passes than Casemiro, Fred, Sabitzer and McTominay combined

As things stand there is no spare squad spot for next season is there? Since Gordon/Ashby will take the spot of Shelvey/Wood Ritchie is out of contract so that frees up 1, Krafth isn't in the squad is he? So that is that spot Then after that it will be people leaving

I agree, though I do think Pope saves that 2nd goal but that's cos he's taller and arguably gets a better hand to it, not Karius fault that he's shorter than him and he was rightly set to expect the shot to go low and across him, just unlucky He's younger than Dubravka so I'd happily have him as No2

Who can blame them, he's done a very good job Most people didn't have them for top 4 and here they are in a title race I do agree the football isn't necessarily pretty but it's effective and his in game management is spot on, throughout the season he often makes changes that work out I'd love for them to collapse as I can't stand them but they are in safe hands and I think they'll win the league with him in charge

I think we've stopped pressing like we were earlier in the season but also I've noticed teams aren't playing out from the back as much as they used to Certainly, in the case of Man-U they were going long quite a bit, which is demonstrated in Bruno completing more passes than Casemiro, Fred, Sabitzer and McTominay combined

I don't disagree with any of that, was more the treating games as cup finals I was disagreeing with but reading it back I guess you were referring to it tactically as opposed to psychologically, so my bad on that one On the tactics side of it, we know what formation we are going to play and can mostly predict the players too, so it's obvious the opposition will know too so mixing it up has to be considered I'd like us to play a 4-2-3-1 at some stage, Bruno and Joelinton are more than capable of playing as a two and it then gets more attacking players closer to the striker

Be surprised if we get anything from this but Brentford and Everton have shown it's possible We'll have to probably mirror the way they did it, though difficult to replicate Brentford as their style is reliant on Toney and we don't have anyone that can play like him But defend deep and make sure we have pace on the counter, they've shown defensive vulnerability and maybe we can grab something

I do hope the contract extension news from earlier in the season wasn't true He's 31, injury prone and has looked poor for quite a period of time now

After today's outcome not sure we should be treating it as a cup final I think a more relaxed approach is needed, if we enjoy these 15 games I think we'll fare better than properly building each game up

On the ball Bruno is better than Casemiro but off it is where Casemiro is better They are different players so comparing them is a bit of a pointless task
