Considering he has been at this club since he was a boy why doesn't Giggs stand up from his seat and try motivate the team and get them working! You can understand a 70yr old foreign manager sitting down all game but a player who has been part of the united traditions and history for as long as Giggs has you would of thought he'd be stood up showing some passion.Two pretty experienced line ups today. Looking forward to this game.Well LVG looked quite relaxed at the pre-match PC.
Clear message win.
Blasphemy!Yep, he can save his job tonight...sometimes i complain that the young players don't take there chances! well, tonight its LVG's chance to see his process through to the end of the season anyway.I don't know about that, Watford would've leapfrogged us if they won
But if it had a stayed a draw we had the chance to get within a point of 4th, which would have been a huge boost IMO.Fingers crossed we smash them and LVG still goes.
Kind of. If we win that shouldn't change the fact he needs to goI m actually confident today, not because of our team, but because of how weak this Chelsea team is upfront. Hazard is not a great goal scorer and we have a stronger foundation in the back to kept their attack at bay. They are also going with two defensive midfielder. I can't see Chelsea scoring much today.Crikey! Herrera starting two on the bounce. I felt sure he'd play mop head tonight. 9/11.
That's the dream scenario.
It shouldn't, but if we win I feel like he's going to stay because Woodward and the board are too shortsighted.
A win could put us within six points off top of the league. Personally I think a managerial change and couple of signings would make us a real threat in the 2nd half of the season. With LVG I think the best we can do is 3rd/4th, with a new manager I think we have a real shot at the title.
yes. like a decision has already been made. Whatever happens with him, hope we play with aggression and purpose.I still think Young is being wasted as a fullback, even though he's doing a job back there. Swap Varela with Young, Young with Rooney, allowing Young and Mata as wide players with Martial as CF, pushing Rooney to the bench.
Chelsea will attack Mata and try to exploit his lack of defensive positional awareness, then pull a CB and central midfielder out of line, allowing space for Oscar, Willian or Pedro to run into space created.
United have the better and more mobile (slightly) central midfield and must win the battle of Schmidfield v Obi Mikel/Matic.Is this the first time we've seen Morgan, Bastian and Ander in a midfield 3? It's the triangle every one of us wanted as soon as the first two were signed, but I can't remember ever seeing it used. Certainly not from the start?
Watford and Everton had the opportunity to leapfrog us, and West Ham and Liverpool still do. Our recent form suggests we are moving down the table not up it so looking over our shoulders is the new normal.
Hopefully not, as that'll mean we've probably lost.
mop head will replace him in the second half I feel sure.I'm sorry, if you buy one of those Mourinho scarves at OT today, you're an absolute clown.Hazard will score his first goal of the season today.Good on Scholes calling that Scarf seller a clown.
Agree completely.I'm actually starting to think we're going to get a decent result today. No specific reason, just a feeling that we'll play with the shackles off.
That goes without saying, it is also FM's worst feature.
I had that feeling for weeks and thought today's gonna click but yeah, let's seeYou cannot call yourself a fan if you buy scarves like that in my opinion.
I've had those little inexplicable bursts of optimism a few times in recent weeks. I don't anymore.Sinking feeling that Hazard will turn up today.
You are instead allowed to call yourself a fool.
Oh fecks sake. Still remember him letting Luiz get away with the most stonewall second yellow, and the complete abomination when Terry scored that winner, Cole getting a free kick for literally jumping out of a clean tackle then Drogba fouling Brown in the box when they scored from it, along with a blatant penalty on Valencia not being given.
He tore us apart in the fixture last year, wouldn't surprise me to see him have the game again given our current form.
Strong argument to say too many fans are being short sighted. Pretty sure that if we were doing an Everton of today the fans would be pissed off, because they keep bottling it. We started the season with a belief of challenging, whilst accepting that City and Arsenal were slightly ahead of us. Still don't see a massive gap between the chasing pack, and the same teams will be challenging for the top.Which add ons are people using for Kodi for this? Had it all sorted but the ones I use have disappeared.
I haven't when we've been away from home, and given that we're probably underdogs this evening, and people aren't expecting much, I'm hoping we'll surprise a few people.LVG saying that a win will say much more than words will. No shit. Too bad we've never seen anything more masterful in our time of need than hoof ball to Fellaini.- Status
