    I worry how we might react if we concede first. While confidence is good right now, my only concern is we might still be a bad result away from losing momentum.

    That said, I think we’re winning this. I’m going for a 2 nil win. Bryan will score again.
    It's very hard to try to unlearn the fear of the old patterns of one step forward, two steps back. I find it very easy myself to find a thousand reasons why today will be even harder than the last three games. And that conceding early might just do us in completely.
    But realistically, we bounced back incredibly well vs. Liverpool, where we somehow seemed able to just "turn it on again" after conceding, which was very impressive to me. And vs. Brighton as well, where we went on to score a fourth after a very shaky period. So, I think our collective fears might be becoming somewhat obsolete as the team builds confidence and a more resilient mentality... Hopefully?
     
    Goona be a good game...let's enjoy it!

    I'm stuck at a wedding in London today, so I'll have to follow along in this thread...so I'm expecting lots of measured, calm, logical responses to every misplaced pass haha

    C'mon United :devil: Four in a row!
     
    Excited for this one - anyone got a good river they can DM me please x
     
    I've felt positive quite a few times over the years that we have turned a corner only for my dreams to be crushed over and over and over again, but this time it feels different also with it coinciding with Liverpool's freefall it sort of feels like the universe has corrected itself.

    I'm ashamed to say I was Ruben out a month or so ago but now I'm starting to believe he's the man to bring us back to the top.

    Our run carries on today, easy.
    Nothing wrong with wanting a manager out, it's all about opinions after all, but what is/was shameful is people who don't have any idea about running an elite club calling him clueless, a coward, a cnut etc.....THAT is shameful.
     
    Will be interesting to see how our midfield cope with Anderson.
     
    Surprised, thought Mount and Maguire were coming back in. Strong bench at least
     
    Good strong bench. If we can swap Zirkzee out for a proper striker, that’s very strong.
     
    Unchanged. I miss the good old days of the lineup being leaked 24 hrs in advance. Wonder why that stopped?

    some solid options on the bench.
     
    Forest's XI is really quite strong... whether it starts today or not (hopefully not but wouldn't necessarily be surprised), I can see Dyche getting them in the top half this year.
     
    I was feeling really confident but according to sky sports news Dalot is the team twice

    Now I’m scared:

    Man Utd: Lammens, Dalot, Yoro, De Ligt, Shaw, Amad, Fernandes, Casemiro, Dalot, Mbeumo, Cunha, Sesko.

    They must be conflating him with Djemba Djemba.

    That’s the type of game where Maguire is least needed. Harry may be needed only when we play a low block
     
    Very good line up that. Only questionable choice is Dalot
     
    Will be interesting to see how our midfield cope with Anderson.

    Think its the opposite. We'll have a better idea of whether Anderson can do his normal performance this season having the most touches and lots of progressive passes, against his main rival and the better player Bruno Fernandes. My expectation is that he will continue to be busy and involved, one of the better Forest players but Bruno and Casemiro will come out on top. Anderson has had his weak games against all the better teams City, Arsenal, Chelsea and Newcastle and I expect the same here.
     
    Obvious choice to keep it, it's our best team. Only change that eventually might happen is if we ever push Shaw to LWB, maybe when Licha is back
