    The greatest team in history
    I disagree with your last statement. I can see us not winning either.

    We can score from open play. 3 goals more than the opposition? Can't see it. We will concede too.

    But we shall see. Still think we won't win at Huddersfield. Cardiff also come to us fighting for their lives.
    Cardiff will be relegated tomorrow.

    You must be in a really dark place if you believe all that. The teams we've lost to in the last 10 games are nowhere NEAR as low as Huddersfield. If you really think we won't win at Huddersfield... just... wow.

    We've lost at Huddersfield just last season. In a game we could have lost by even more.

    With a team that was playing much better than this one.

    I really don't get where all this arrogance from some of our fans is coming from. We've lost to teams like that quite often over the last few years. Them beating us wouldn't be that shocking.

    A draw at best. One thing for certain is, it will be one of Huddersfields easiest matches in a long time.

    That’s charming, that is. You just had to find a reason for your players to finally show a bit of effort, didn’t you?

    0-4.

    "Lads, it's Huddersfield."

    Should be the OGS teamtalk.

    Can honestly see Huddersfield repeating their heroics of last season with another win against us in their final home game in the PL

    2-1 Huddersfield

    Greenwood, Romero and Bailly are out injured.

    De Gea definitely will start, no way Ole picking Grant for this.

    :devil: Greenwood will play next game vs Cardiff, hopefully he'll start and play full 90 mins.

    Fourth is far from over, and to give the best chance of getting that spot then the final 2 games need to be played with the team and tactics to achieve the goal difference that could be crucial.

    In the reverse fixtures at the start of Solkjaers management, it ended with a +6 difference, improving on that against teams already relegated could see a very interesting final day.

    Playing kids against Cardiff may be an option if all goes against us this weekend but tomorrow should be all out assault.

    Is there a hope still to get top 4? Cant see Spurs lose theri last 2 or Chelsea!
    Chelsea don’t need to lose 2 ,lose 1 and Draw 1 will suffice . Leicester away will be a difficult game and watford at home could be difficult. Players are playing for a cup final position and Chelsea have Europe to be thinking about.

    The more this draws closer, the more I think we won’t win.

    Which means a scrappy 1-0 Utd win at best, with said goal being controversial. If it was shown on BT, they’d play every angle possible of said goal during the game and basically say we’re cheats/lucky/whatever and it overshadows any potential of whether we even played well or not.

    I always chuckle at the wide spread fans opinions, between those who are super optimistic we'll win every game, and then those who start worrying we'll lose at one of the all time worst 3 premier league teams in Huddersfield.

    We lost there before, but they weren't anywhere near as poor.

    We couldn't have asked for a better last 2 games, it's just a shame we didn't do our job last weekend.
    We're asking a hell of a lot for Arsenal or Chelsea to drop enough points to let us in now.

    Still won't let us in, unless they lose at home to Everton which surely doesn't happen.
    Dunno man, Everton are doing quite well at the moment, and spurs league form has taken a nosedive. No Son either assuming his ban doesn't get overturned. I think its very well possible that spurs slip out of the top 4.

    That scenario wont help us much i know but still quite funny given how high everyone holds Poch.

    Would be glorious.
    We would finish with two wins so the knee jerkers would then decide we went the right choice after all

    Defenders (6): Ashley Young, Diogo Dalot, Phil Jones, Chris Smalling, Victor Lindelof, Luke Shaw

    Ole made Rashford our first choice striker, Instead of grabbing that chance it seems his contract negotiations stuff gets in to his head as his performances are all downhill in last few weeks.

    It's going to be a really tough game.
    Huddersfield will be totally up for it, while our players will just want to get it over and done with.

    Huddersfield have scored only two goals in the last five matches while giving up seventeen. Cardiff have also only scored two while giving up seven.
    Those are exactly the kinds of teams we lose to.
    We have lost 7 out of our last 10 games, so our form is akin to a team in the relegation zone.
    Huddersfield should be a good fight between 2 sides who are in very poor form. I just feel that Huddersfield will raise their game and I'm not sure if we'll be good enough to contain them.

    Chong -- Rashford -- A.Pereira

    Subs: Gomes, Mata, Fred, Matic, Young, Jones, Grant
    Meh, no expectations, just trying to enjoy this game.
    Captain Herrera for once before he's leaving, I think we haven't seen him wear the armband even once.

    Lads, it's Huddersfield.

    I'm expecting 2 shots on target, how's that for optimism?
