    If rashford is fit, I hope he does not Start. Based on the last 6 weeks, he has been rubbish (or we could say, since his injury). I would start the same team with Garnacho coming on a bit earlier and rashford replacing martial.

    Another must win. Do not want to go into 2 games where opponent will be focused on us fully for different reasons. Hope that Leicester get a win tomorrow and this game can be our clinch game

    I hold real hope that we should be winning this. Aside from Saints you couldn’t hand pick a better away game I think. They are safe but not very good. Even Chelsea won there.

    If we fail to win here then our away form is starting to look relegation level. Have to be winning.

    In the last 6 weeks, he’s played 6 matches with 4 GA, including a winner against Brentford and a brilliant display against Spurs. Would you like to re-assess the period during which he has been “rubbish”?

    What possible reason would there be to start Sancho ahead of Rashford? One of them is one of the best players in the world and the other has yet to show sufficient evidence that he’s even up to playing in the premier league.

    This makes no sense at all

    In the spirit of us making shit unecceserily difficult for ourselves, we probably will draw this or something.

    Can't we just be 3-0 up at half time for once this season? This would be a great game for that.

    Bournemouth got 3 home wins this year - nothing for them to play for now as they are safe so I see a 3.1 or 3.0 victory for us here.

    Even fat Frank picked up his only win in about 20 games here

    Should be comfortable after a weeks rest.

    Assuming Rashford isn't fit to start.

    De Gea
    AWB - Varane - Lindelof - Shaw
    Casemiro - Eriksen
    Antony - Bruno - Garnacho
    Martial​

    For the record, I love Rashford and is one of my favourite players at United, when many were gunning him down, I always backed him. I dont think he is as world class as some make out, but I see him with a important future here.

    To my comment, 6 games in the league so just after Brentford. I agree he was decent against Spurs, goal and an assist but this is the only goal contributions he has made in the last 6 games. I find him incredibly wasteful, thinks he can take on everyone but often runs into the first man he see. I have found his passing unintelligent, the space and position he gets into and it often has seemed, he thinks he can blast a goal in from 40 yards. There have been several occasions through out dirty patch of form, where we have needed a goal, he's got a couple of men in better positions, but he strikes for goal. I get he was on fire before his injury, confidence gives you a yard of luck, but his decision making, for me, has not been good. I also get that Antony is a culprit of this but over the last 4 or 5 games, I've seen him look for the pass or cross more, cut the ball back and take a pass when it's obvious the defender will block a take on. Sancho too has been rubbish, im not a fan of him. However, you get more teamwork from him. He will look for a player in a better position rather than try to take some one on or shoot from anywhere.

    Don't get me wrong, this is Rashford not good patch, he has a future and will return, but since that first injury, he has lost some swag. Its understandable, it will come back.

    I'm about the team not a individual. We won very comfortably against Wolves, Rashford off the bench gives us a dynamic and pacey option in the final 30 mins if we need it. I also believe he looks jaded and is in need of a serious rest. A couple games out,l (which he had) and a few cameos from the bench ( next three league games), will help keep him fresh. He and Bruno have played almost every minute of a gruelling season. Bruno stamina is miles ahead of Rashford, hence he will benefit from a step back. Also, why does he deserve to start every game?

    Just my opinion in whole, you dont gace to agree. I love Rashford but when something is not working, I believe make a change. When something works, don't fix it until you need too.

    i dont think we will lose but unfortunately a draw isnt much better than a loss. So really it is the same if we draw vs lose in the grand scheme of things. Must win game and think we do.

    Leicester will beat Liverpool and we will beat Bournemouth and that will be that.
    I have that feeling , the Leicester players are going to show up in the event they went down. They will be desperate to give one last good showing to get a move.

    Our away form continues to be dreadful with a capital D.
    To even get a point away, is a monumental task for us.
    I can't see us getting 3 points, here unless something crazy happens during the match.
    On the plus side (for us), Bournemouth concede a lot of goals. Only 1 other team has conceded more goals than Bournemouth.

    I definitely don't see us losing...but winning away is near impossible for us.
    Looking at the probabilities, I'd go with a draw.

    They don't really have much to play for right? We'll beat them handedly.

    think id start garnacho. Really have our wings attacking and putting them under pressure. High intensity start, get an early goal and put them away. Even if rash is back id put him up top. Team will be amped after liverpool drop points today.

    Liverpool winning at Leicester, makes this a very very important game. Lose or Draw this and suddenly Chelsea and Fulham are going to be difficult to win.
