    Schneiderlin's shite! I'm hoping he doesn't play as he will ruin the momentum we seem to be gaining. van Gaal can put him on the bench and bring him on when the game's won!
    No he's not! That's a silly thing to say!

    It's absolutely not a silly thing to say. He's clumsy and ineffective. He adds nothing to the team. Complete waste of £25m. We could've brought better and we should be buying better. I was completely underwhelmed when we signed him and I've seen nothing to change my mind. He looked half decent at Southampton because that's what he is...a mid-table player! I hope Evergrande or some other Chinese club slap £40m on the table for him.

    Why so few votes for a Chelsea win?

    I think they'll win comfortably! Obviously I hope I'm wrong though

    The same team that beat Stoke, hopefully. It just has to be. We're due a win there, but a draw is far more likely. We can't afford to settle for that though. 3 points are vital, given our situation. I have a feeling that Bournemouth will give Arsenal a good game tomorrow. A win for us and an Arenal draw could do wonders for our season.

    Martial isolating Ivanovíc will be the key to winning the game. If Carrick starts, we need him at optimum level. If those two play well, I think we can win.

    There's a lot of over confidence here after wins against Stoke and Derby. Chelsea beat Arsenal away just two games ago while we were terrible against Southampton at home. Chelsea clear favourites for this in my opinion.
    So you'd rather refer to the games played 2 weeks ago over the ones played just 4-5 days ago? How is expecting us expect to beat Chelsea (in current form) overconfidence and not simply confidence? Why must everything be superlatives on the caf these days?

    Just realised City play Tottenham next week. Win the next 2 and we will be very close with one of them

    Loss to chelsea and arsenal win basically ends top 4 hopes. three game cushion will be impossible to claw back in this league this season

    win against chelsea and arsenal stumble, we not only generate more belief but tighten the noose around a spooked arsenal.

    must win, i just hope LVG doesn't revert back.

    I fully expected him to do something stupid to prove that he hasn't given the team more freedom. I expect a 352 formation and a loss.

    Yeah my friend said the same thing. He much rather Giggsy took charge.


    My friend is a Liverpool fan.
    Not hoping for Giggs at all, there are better managers out there, including Mourinho.
    Getting Pocchettino or Simeone would be likeable and excellent choices.

    I see it like buying Costa. Hate that guy, so I don't want him at the team I'm rooting for. Even if he would help our forward situation.

    Just over a week ago around a third were predicting that we'd lose to Derby, now we have us as favourites away at Chelsea where we have a poor record. Chelsea had there own good result in the cup to Championship opposition like us. Their form is barely worse than ours if at all.

    Man Utd playing well, winning two games in a row? - Don't see it sadly. No consistency in performance with Van Gaal

    Some of the papers say there could be a red card today and also there might be some goals. These feckers get paid for this.

    Have gone for us to win 2 nil. Not because I'm confident but because I don't see the point for ruining my Sunday thinking we're going to lose before we've even started the game.

    We need these 3 points to stay in touch. A win would be massive especially with the top four playing each other next week (I think) - and dropping points one way or the other so we need to get our shit together today and win.

    Win this and we're 4 points behind City who look like they don't give a shit since Guardiola was announced.

    Haven't been this excited for a game in quite a while. We actually do quite well against the top 6.

    If Hiddink plays the Mikel-Matic double pivot to try and spoil this I just hope our attack doesn't fizzle out. We really could do with a win and going on a run.

    I think we'll get beaten.

    Very little action on this thread. Surprising really given it's such a big match. Going for a United one in this. Fellaini to score and Martial too. 2-1 to United.

    Wonder who Mourinho will be rooting for, IF the recent rumours about him is true.
    I reckon that if he is to become oure manager, he want CL football, but still, he's been manager for Chelsea for several years, and know the players personally.

    I voted a Chelski win. We are so hit and miss and the moment. Can't see us getting any sort of run together despite LVG saying we can win the league.

    They somehow managed to be even worse than us lately. We also seem to be doing better in big games than against small teams, I guess that's what makes people more confident.

    4-0 United with Mourinho smiling on from the stands. Martial, Fellaini, Depay, Depay.

    QUOTE ME LATER GUYZ.
    Depay to score 2 goals?
    He can't score 1 goal. :p

    I will surely quote you, sir.
    4-0 it is!!!
