Nah, Rooney won't score on Sunday. You can put money on it.

I'd never put money against a former player coming back to score against their former team. It's one thing you can almost always be sure of in football. For the same reason I completely expect Lukaku to score as well.

Lukaku will probably score, Rooney won't.

BTW, I saw an interesting stat about Everton: they have had only 7 shots on target in the first 4 games

 

[BeforeKeanetherewasRobson]

I have a bad feeling about this game...

That's an irrational feeling

 

[ManuMou]

Any chance of starting both Rash and Martial ?

 

[Lennon7]

That's an irrational feeling

An irRashional feeling, ey? Ey?

 

[Ban]

Given Jose has fallen out with Herrera I reckon Felli and Matić will start.

 

[Grunge]

Quietly confident we'll run out 3 nil winners. The blue scousers are still finding their feet and while I think Koeman will guide them to top 8 their current form is unlikely to trouble whatever team Jose puts out. I'm not saying it will be walk in the park and won't be surprised if we get a bit squeaky bum while leading 2 - 1 before we get a third on a cunter, sorry counter, my bad.

 

[charlenefan]

...Okay? Why not? Just shows that they're in shit form. Would you prefer it if they had won the last 3 in a row?

Yes, I'd prefer every team to come to OT thinking they can get a win than come with 10 men behind the ball hoping for a draw

 

[Havak]

Rooney and Sigurdson will both score so we need 3 goals to win. Not going to be easy.

Good job we're averaging three goals a game then

 

[royboy16]

Koeman, Everton and Sigurdson all do well at OT in recent year so there's reasons to be wary

Plus they are a bit of a bogey team for us over the years.

 

[No Idea For Nickname]

Remember match thread vs WHU? "Chica will score" "Bet he will" "He is nailed on to score" blah, yada..
I looked at my crystal ball, and I see Rooney starting strong, determined to show Jose it was mistake to let him go. He will be happy with reception from Old Trafford, and will think "don't want to celebrate a goal",and after 27 seconds he will start to breathe heavy, first touch..and it will show that he played two days ago.

 

[Tincanalley]

Steady ladies and gentlemen. Predictions are dangerous. I hope WR gets a good reception at OT. I hope he doesn't score, from a dead ball situation, for example. And I hope we score at least two (more than them).

 

[sunama]

Remember match thread vs WHU? "Chica will score" "Bet he will" "He is nailed on to score" blah, yada..

As another poster stated, the match-day threads are ridiculously negative.
Players who are terrible (such as Rooney), immediately become World class, when they are playing against us.
Everton are fodder right now and we should use them to work on goal difference. Getting 3 points should not even be questioned. We are managed by Jose Mourinho and we should be confident.

 

[Kill 'em all]

If we can't win against such a poor Everton team.

 

[SuperiorXI]

We won't see the Everton we have seen so far, we will see a completely different team. No doubt about it.

 

[JustinC00]

We're gonna soil ourselves and drop points tomorrow now, aren't we?

 

[whatwha]

We need to beat Everton by 5 to go past City at the top of the table :/

Hope we continue with the 4-2-3-1 despite no Pogba.

 

[roseguy64]

Any Sri Lanka reds on here? I know one guy's user name is Lanka something but can't find on mobile. Need a bar suggestion showing the match near Negombo or Columbo.

Start a thread maybe?

 

[Treble]

It's possbile to win 4:0 at stay at the top. To win and take the 3 points would be enough though.

City would be above us on same GD due to alphabetical sorting.

5:0 then.

If Atalanta can put 3 past them, maybe we can score 5

 

[Redo91]

Heading over to this. First game since the 0-0 against Hull last season so hopefully there isn't a repeat of that performance.

Slightly off topic but does anyone know where I could leave a rucksack if I'm bringing it with me? I assume I can't bring it into the ground.

 

[dakingpin1999]

Everton will morph into the hurricanes tomorrow. keane, rooney and co will raise their game. Typical

Don't think there are any lockers due to security, but there's a luggage office at Piccadilly (and at the airport).

[ghagua]

Everton have been poor lately, but I'm sure they will be raising their game tomorrow. Need to win against Everton to keep up with City. Not sure what's going to happen with City when winter comes around, but it's very important to stay up with them with the start we have had.

 

[Xeno]

Start a thread maybe?

That was my next task, but I a few locals have directed me somewhere so I think I've found one.

 

[Kapardin]

Will be one hell of a slow, gentle hurricane though with their "pace".

 

[Solo Toure]

I hope the season doesn't come down to goal difference again.

Need to give Everton a beating.

1-0 United.

There's a little place you can drop off luggage just outside the ground. Just ask one of the stewards to point you in the right direction. You get a ticket when you drop it off.

 

[Cnaiür urs Skiötha]

4-1 I think. Rooney scoring one last time at OT.

 

[Sandikan]

Good results at Liverpool and Tottenham, can we break last season's habit of not capitalising?

City put a little bit of a statement out there today, so a firm win from us would be excellent.

 

[Motorman]

Can't wait for this.
United vs Everton
Lukaku vs Rooney

Shame Pogba is missing. Good chance for Herrera to get a few games under his belt though

 

[AN17]

Must win 5-0.

 

[RonaldoVII]

Herrera, rather than Fellaini?

Good point.

It will be the latter won't it.

I fecking hate stoke

 

[Von Mistelroum]

[Jaybomb]

De Gea
Valencia Smalling Bailly Blind
Fellaini Matic
Mata Mkhi Martial
Lukaku

My lineup. Think it'll be 3-1 to us. Rooney will inevitably score. I hope he won't celebrate.

 

[Hernandez - BFA]

Backing us to a professional 2-0 win tomorrow.

 

[NJM78]

Draw. Hope I'm wrong as feck but can't see anything but. At OT an opponent playing rubbish, all the hype about Rooney/Lukaku, a game we should win. Yep draw.

Have fiver on 2-2 draw at 22/1
