In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
No. Fergie is hoping he'll train today.
Oh well worst comes to worst we can always play Fletcher or Rooney on the wing, they'll both give at least a 6/10 performance there.
We're going to win this..
2-0 i'd say
2-0 i'd say
This has got 0-0 written all over it I reckon.
7-1 and 2-0 meaning Chelsea wins right?
Clearly not

We'll win this and the game at Anfield, I've got a feeling.
Hernandez is a must in my opinion. We need someone clinical up front for this game.
I think we have a cracking chance to win this.
Chelsea are not the team they once was at home and we have just had are best away win all season.
Most fans and pundits will be saying a draw , but I am going for a tough 2-1 win.

it says Vidic has faced Torres twice already, Vidic didn't play in the first Liverpool match and its not like Torres scored in either match
If we do then we will win the League without a shadow of a doubt. Personally I would be glad to avoid defeat in both.
We've still got to play Chelsea, and Arsenal at the Emirates.
I see in the Sunday paper that Drogba's threatening to leave unless he starts against United.
0-0, boring and defensive with some counter attacks without ever really threatening Cech.
6 points from both matches, and I'd be very confident of winning the league. 4 points, and I'd be very happy with that.
That said, I'd rather have one win and one defeat rather than two draws.
True, but potentially we could have the league wrapped up by then as we would have played 34 games before the Chelsea return.
You're a jolly fella, aren't you?
I agree.
I'm not too bothered though. A draw away at the bridge is a good result. Chelsea need the 3 poiints much more than us and hopefully that will show in their play.
If it does they will be wide open to the counter.
who will City chose to support on Tuesday?
I'd say its in their interest to cheer on United.
Swallow that you bitter fecks.

Indeed!!!!! They won't though because it is so ingrained in their bitter blood that they are not able to see the logical best outcome due to their hatred for United
2-1 Gibson, Hernandez
I wouldn't be surprised if they thought they could still win the league.
You said the same about the Wigan game
but i fecking hope so
Gibson's showing some good form; played well in france, did well when he came on yesterday.
I wouldn't be surprised if Gibbo comes good on tues.
We'll win 2-1 with them scoring their goal in the last 10 minutes to make it a nervy ending but we'll hold out.
He's still shit and i will be upset to see him in the starting XI for this game
He isn't going to "come good" on this Tuesday, next Tuesday, or any Tuesday for that matter, Darron Gibson's no fine wine that's for sure.
Given the choice i'd leave him out.
He's shown in the past that he can step up in big games though.
I haven't given up on him enough to write him off as shit just yet.
Fergie's kept him about for a good few years now. He must be doing somethng in training to merit his place in the squad.
I remember slagging Fletcher off for the first 3-4 years of his United career. Once bitten...
draw lads..
Exactly this, I'm fed.up with sucking up narrow defeats. after officials. blundres.
Well he's no Beaujolais Nouveau, he's proven that much.
but i fecking hope so
He will start, be totally useless until he unleashes Gibson fury upon Petr Cech by firing a rocket shot into the top corner. He will then make a Ronaldinho like pass to Hernandez who will finish it one on one. He will come off to a standing ovation from Chelsea fans.
But seriously, he hasn't been that bad lately and I could see him starting.

Maybe you should give up before you become too emotionally attached to him like you did William Prunier. I do not want to have be your shoulder to cry one when he has to leave the club for first team football and ends up playing for Rangers!!
Id like to see us play 442. We beat them 3-0 playing 442 a couple of seasons back and beat them in the CS playing 442. Its a shame Park is out cos I would have liked to have seen a midfield of Fletcher and Giggs in the centre. Although Ramirez is a bit more mobile and Essien is a beast, I think the skill of giggs in the centre would compliment Fletchers "water carrier" role and allow us to keep width and keep the pace of our play up.
Which every way it happens, I think we need 4 points from the next two games. A win at SB is long overdue and we need some big performances. Im confident our defence can keep them out.
