    Was just watching Sancho videos on YouTube. Imagine Bruno, Pogba and Sancho playing at their best - those one touch passes and flicks would be amazing. Love that we have some players with flair.

    Same as last week except Varane and Sancho for James and Lindelof.

    Holy feck, that team is stacked! :eek:


    No way should we ending this season empty handed. Don't envy Solskjaer one bit.

    Money Mase looking sharp. Think he bags another goal tomorrow. Going for a 2-0 united win. Greenwood and Bruno

    The reason other clubs get good money while we fail to clear deadwood like Andreas, Lingard and Jones is because other clubs pro-actively sell players when they realise the player wont make it, while their stock is still relatively high. They dont wait for them to magically get better while it further tanks their value and makes them unsellable. And they certainly dont give them a bumper contract.

    We have Greenwood, Sancho, Pogba, Mata, Amad and Elanga for the wing. Rashford will come in 3 months. Sell Lingard, Andreas and James while you still can. Selling James should be a priority since we can still get a decent fee for him.
    True. We should be able to spot their potential months and even years ahead of other clubs because our people see them train and play on daily basis. Thats one aspect i can never understand. We only actively trying to push them out when the whole world already accepts they are very very average. By then they be on inflated contract and it becomes even more difficult to sell.

    Ward prowes will probably score a hat trick of free kicks, Their only three shots of the match. We’ll have 27 shots and no goals

    He had a go at us for celebrating after a last minute winner and I think he had a few cheeky words after they had their last minute equaliser the year before. Definitely something in it
    This coming from a man who cried when his team beat Liverpool.

    Same team as last weekend apart from Sancho coming in for James. Immediate upgrade.

    1-3 win
    Greenwood, Bruno, Maguire
    Ward Prowse with a goal of the decade contender

    Can't imagine Ole will make many changes to the lineup that faced Leeds. Although, Sancho for James seems like a no-brainer.

    I don't quite get the concept of opening the season in such a spectacular fashion, and then immediately assume the most negative outcome the next match.

    Is it a sexual gratification thing?

    I feel really confident about this game. Southampton have lost maybe their two best players and looked soft defensively against Everton. I think we'll tear them apart.

    I just hope Southampton come out and press us. If that happens, I think we will cut through them!

    If I'd have said 47 shots, then maybe.

    This is more of a shoplifting type cheap buzz

    Arsenal will get a little jolt if we mess this up tomorrow. When Liverpool ballsed it up, it was like they'd won the league.

    What have Arsenal got to do with us? Am I missing something?


    Hope Sancho starts, but I'm prepared that he won't. Really doesn't see how he can't though.

    I’m not that confident. Hopefully I’m very wrong and we storm to victory but feel like the Leeds victory has everyone from pundits to fans thinking we are the next big thing.

    Leeds were a team that played right in to our hands, so be good to see how we do against a team that I assume is going to shut up shop and look to not give any space.

    Sancho in for James is the single most sound decision since sound decisions became a thing. But Ole likes players to play themselves into the team rather than being thrown in based on reputation. It's similar to the Varane vs Lindelof situation, I guess.

    I'm not a fan of Ole's logic here, for what that's worth.
