    Now that the league is gone. We shall hammer these and hope there's a draw in the other fixture.

    Der Hammer kommt direkt in deinen Arsch!
     
    I don't give a shit about what anyone will say. I don't wanna watch the EL, a trophy we won't win anyway. Better have less games
    Yes. We need to concentrate on the league. We’re not winning any trophies this season. League and FA Cup until we‘re knocked out. Maybe we can still finish 4th but it’s a long shot.
     
    I'm confident we can play well.....for about 15 mins.
     
    They'll play in 2nd gear and probably rest players as well. Let's at least try to do something.
    I don't think so. They just had a 10 day rest due to already being out of the cup that was played mid week and their league match against Union Berlin cancelled due to snow. And they performed horribly against Frankfurt yesterday.

    They are well rested, have a point to make, and need to get up to speed again in the league. This could well be a match to play their first choice team into form again and to prove something after Frankfurt.

    Still I think United has a chance if they can keep the pressure up as Bayern don't seem to be as settled and confident as they usually are at the moment.
     
    We will lose to Bayern, Liverpool and Villa within December. You know it, I know it, everybody knows it
     
    What I want to see is an honorable performance, come what may in terms of result.
     
    Pathetic to hear people talk down the Europa League as it is something beneath the mighty United. Wake up and face reality.
    We are not top 4 in England and at current standard we are probably not even top 20 in Europe. EL is where we belong at best so let’s try and qualify and get the best out of it.

    We will concede about 15-20 shots to each, I can already see it. Amrabat on his own dealing with the counter attack, runners flying by him after McTominay ran into the box and Bruno gave the ball away, while Dalot plays everyone onside.
     
    Team selection is pretty much what we have got used to, EtH is very limited with his options, the team literally picks itself.
    We can't afford an open game, but we don't have the players to control it either, the best we can hope for is damage limitation and a draw, that's my heart talking, my head says 1-3
    With a board meeting after the game
     
    And Bundesliga/Munich fans know what's gonna happen this week? Are they gonna play a full team or send the ressies? I see their 6/4 in the bookies which is very generous. They did lose 5-1 at the weekend.
     
    And the one victory there was one of the most depressing nights in recent memory.
    Ivica fecking Olic, man. They were dead and buried until that stupid, scrappy, flukey goal.

    Also, they were kicking lumps out of us all night, led by Van Bommel but of course it was Rafael who got sent off.

    Either they spiral into chaos now and sack Tuchel after that - or more likely - they respond in their typical way and completely destroy the next team they face.

    My prediction: 20% chance Bayern will struggle a lot and United win. 10% it will become a boring draw because both teams are insecure. 70% chance that Bayern win about 5-1

    Our good fortune against them was all used up purely from '99

    The fact that ETH remains oblivious to that gaping midfield hole is shocking
     
    With us, we don’t know which United will turn up.

    I hope the good side with turn up and I hope we score first, and a second very quickly after it.
     
    We were out after the first game and never looked like beating anyone. ETH with his 'we all fight' shite must be watching a different game than the rest of us. Still, stranger things have happened. If we finish rock bottom, is the it or do we go into an even more embarrassing cup? Much rather we were out of Europe altogether and concentrate on the top four.

    We lost any chance of gaining momentum in this group when Rashford got sent off in Copenhagen,however the rot started when chucking away lead at home to Galatasaray
     
    Bayern have already qualified, haven't they? They will probably play their third team.

    They had a long break, because their game against Berlin was canceled and they only have two more Bundesliga games until the winter break. I don't think anyone is desperate for some rest.
    On the other hand the pressure is already building up a bit a bit on Tuchel, being out of the cup and behind Leverkusen in the league. Considering how bad the result was against Frankfurt, I wouldn't bet too highly on him surviving Christmas if this were to blossom into a string of bad results. So a convincing game against United, to prove that this was just an accident, would be a nice momentum upper.
     
    Gonna be a pointless game. The chance of the other 2 teams drawing are very slim. So If we win we just put ourselves in the Europa. We might beat these but then we’ll get smashed of Liverpool. That’s the way this season is going for us.

    Their defence looked proper shite against Frankfurt and Kane was invisible like he was against Copenhagen.
    Might be a fun match for neutrals with a ton a daft goals. Neuer seems well past it and Onana is...well Onana.
     
    Hopefully Bayern are fired up after their loss. I don't want us to play Europa league.
     
    Gonna pull off our most impressive CL win in years. And our reward will be the Europa League

    Knowing our team, this could just happen. We get a narrow win with lots of heartburn moments towards the end, only for the other game to go the wrong way.
     
    We must not be reduced to playing in the Europa League, a competition unworthy of our greatness and honour.

    If this is intended as sarcasm then it's better to try and go for top 4 without too many games accumulating every week. Helps with the injuries too. There's still time to pull our shit together and go for 4th.
