They are the favourites here. Results wise they are as good, performances wise they are crap. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, agree, but for European qualification it’s the result that matters. I don’t think people should underestimate their ability to scrape undeserved results Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infatuation Junkie Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 They aren’t a shite as people make out. Had good chances v arsenal. We also aren’t as good as people make out when we play away from home. This is a very tough match and Eddie needs to plan to perfection for this one. I am taking the bairn and good lady to legends Alcudia for this match. The place will be full of Irish Man U fans.

Andy84 Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 Felt their performance was a typical raise your game in a big match in front of the cameras. It was improved but they never really troubled Arsenal. With our away form we could quite easily come unstuck but I think we will take a point. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Shite Bruno is back, we absolutely cannot allow him the freedom in the middle as we have done so many times this season as we will get punished. Man U aren't as bad as gets made out, just wholly inconsistent like ourselves and prone a rick at the back. I'd absolutely love to hand them a pasting but realistically a scrappy win would be absolutely class. Get the feeling we may draw to allow Chelsea a clearer path ahead of both of us Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geogaddi Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 This is going to be a very tough game no doubt about it , surprised we are favourites to be honest . For all we laugh at them and how poor they look we are only three points above them and our away form is shocking , I would be happy with a point .

From the fa cup we have beat the mackems, Fulham, Villa, Forest, Blackburn**, Fulham and Burnley and lost at Arsenal, City, Chelsea and Palace. Those last two particularly shit performances but other two completely expected as usual. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though the performances at Chelsea and Palace were poor I think their form has been such that it doesn't some as such a surprise that we didn't get anything in either of those games.

RS Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 I think they’ll beat us unfortunately. If Isaak is still poorly we can offer next to nothing up front. Hopefully the focussed, defensively sound Newcastle turn up and give them a game and not the shambling away team we’ve seen over the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to get an early goal and absolutely wipe the floor with them! I think it’s one of those games where first goal can be extra important. The LC game there felt like a home match. We won’t have as many there, if we get ahead I think the home advantage falls away from them. They’re not a crowd to lift their team at the moment.

I think Tino and Hall at full back in the cup game showed how to play against these. Stay compact, frustrate them and then hit on the break with lots of pace.

Would feel harsh to drop either of them now particularly if Trippier isn't match ready... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackyboy Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 Man United did well last night but unfortunately for them Arsenals defence were superb and snuffed them out. If they play that well against us and with Fernandez back we will have a job on our hands Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicken Dancer Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 Hopefully they're not as compact as they were against Arsenal. I don't think they will be. Despite how crap their performances have been, they do get results every now and then. This alongside our record at Old Trafford & our away form means I'd probably be more than happy with a point, but absolutely no reason why we shouldn't be going there trying to win. The cup final was Howe's only defeat against them as our manager, and we've kept clean sheets in all but one of the one of the league games. Play to win and we probably will.

Beth Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 11 hours ago, Yorkie said: A draw guarantees top seven and, if Chelsea don't beat Brighton, keeps us in pole position for 6th. I wouldn't take it if offered but a point here is at minimum a useful result. Top seven means an 80% chance of the ECL. EL or nothing for me but I know that's the minority view.
