    I’m really excited for this.

    I know it is not the same for others. But I enjoy watching this United team. Apart from some idiots, I want this team to do well and can see them trying. I think we are close to clicking.

    We will struggle tomorrow. It’ll be hard. But they’ll fight. I want rashford/pogba/Martial and James playing together. I want AWB and Shaw back.

    I like this post , good on him! We need more fans like this! This place has become awful with the negativity

    I can't see us beating Liverpool so we need this. Win or fail.

    I would like to see an attacking 451
    De Gea
    Tuanzabe Lindelof Maguire Williams
    Andreas (rm) Mctominay (Cdm) Fred (lm)
    Rashford (rf) James (lf)
    Greenwood (St)
    Andreas and Fred are runners and can cover when we lose the ball but can burst forward when we have the ball. Mctominay should be sitting back but bursting forward as a box to box defensively minded player. Rashford needs to be playing in the Mane role. I think James pace would suit it too. Greenwood needs to play central striker. He is wasted on the wing.

    Prediction:

    We had one or five chances but all fell into Rashford's way.

    He fluffed the chances, and we scored just one from Greenwood in 88th minute.

    We won.

    I like this. I do start-ups for a living so I know how much oscillations or bi-polarity a build under-goes which is how I see this re-build under Ole. So life is never a straight line for me.

    The key is to look for the little nuggets to keep the faith going.

    That is the worst United squad in 20 years.
    Yup, we let decent players go, and didn’t replace them. There are 6-7 teams in the PL right now that have a way better midfield and attack than us.

    I know people joke about this, but we have genuinely become a mid table team, with the squad to back it up.

    If there’s an away match we can win, and end this streak, this has got to be it.

    Wouldn’t be surprised if it ends 0-0 though. Rashford has zero confidence at the moment and the rest of the attack (except maybe James) is utter dross.

    Maybe we finally score from a corner?

    The amount of sick and injured players is insane. Has Germany invaded England again??
    Wan-Bassaka
    Jones
    Lingard
    Pogba
    Martial
    Bailly
    Shaw

    And some are ALWAYS or almost always injured: Bailly Jones Shaw and Martial

    I don’t get how Bailly and Jones keep injuring themselves given they have minimal game times. Two of them either get injured or put on some of the worst performances. And we just gave Jones a five year contract.

    Post ferguson i think we score almost the same amount of own goals as from corner or freekick.

    I'm the same. It's a long process and realistically we are not going to improve until we can get our best players back fit and make another few signings. We knew this season would be tough if we had injuries. I'd hoped we would get to January without too many. By then we'd sign another couple of players and the kids would have had another few months development. But knowing our luck the injuries have started to pile up from day one with unsurprising consequences.

    It's a difficult time but there's no point in throwing hissy fits. We need to be patient and supportive and relish the battle. There's a certain excitement in having to scrap for points sometimes. I'd be more than happy with a scrappy 1-0 win.

    Hopefully by the Liverpool game we have all of the big guns back and we can look more like the team that started the season playing well against Chelsea and Wolves.

    Without pogba, martial, shaw and awb we have an absolutely hopeless squad.

    I'm sure we suffer more injury crisis over the years than most teams. I mean, what's up with that.

    I'm looking forward to the international break more than this game.

    Worst part is we have had giants for the last 3-4 years, and still we suck at them.

    Even the worst teams usually are semi decent in set pieces.

    Get lost.

    Life is tough for most of us - football was always that one part that was enjoyable no matter what. A few years ago, I couldn't wait for the weekends. Nowadays it's no better than the boring parts of life. Football should be fun not fecking shit.

    Ah, easy 1 - 3 win for us today as we fly past Spurs, all guns blazing, with Ole at the wheel. Brexit, a General election, Christmas and the January transfer window just around the corner. What could go wrong. Bring it on...

    Greenwood and James to shine, our defence holds firm, and the bookies to stop taking bets on a United treble.

    Can't wait to get back to work on Monday morning...

    Going for an away win.

    Hopefully Steve Bruce will not get his first win against us in 22 league games if the stats are correct.
