    Maguire coming back in is the logical choice with Lindelof missing.

    I can't say I'm confident, but this really is a must win. We've looked a bit better at times lately.

    Big day today, you might say.

    It's a pity we haven't got a holding mid.We would be a decent team if that was the case.

    RR thinks the world of him, don't he?

    I wonder how many bad performances & stupid mistakes Maguire must have before managers see the light?
    Lindelof is out, so is Bailly, Jones is just coming back from a 2 year lay off, and given his history with injuries, is probably being managed extremely carefully. Who would you play?

    This game will probably go on to define the rest of our league season. Win it and there’s momentum, lose it and it’s probably game over for top 4.

    Have to play like we did in the second half at Brentford. Don’t think West Ham will give up on the chances we presented on Wednesday.

    Don’t think it has any bearing on top 4 tbh as this Utd side could win today and draw the next 2 games or lose today, and win the next two. That’s pretty much the same for all the teams chasing 4th position. Irrespective of todays game, gonna be more twist and turns yet…..

    So if we win today, we go 4th and above west ham. That means we will be slow of the blocks, be 2-0 down in no time, show no fight or spirit and after the game Maguire and bruno will put up inspiring 'we go again' posts, followed by dressing room feud news on the media.

    Bloody circus all over again

    Yeah, but it's West Ham.

    Look how well all the inferior teams have played against us recently, let alone a fluid, attacking side like West Ham!

    This is all set for a Bowen winner.

    According to Webby who’s been spot on lately, it’s the same side apart from Maguire for Lindelof

    who's the leak?! :rolleyes:

    So West Ham have 3 hours to prepare knowing what the Manchester United team news is going through tactical plans etc

    well done whoever leaked it to Webby of all people who then broadcast it on Twitter for the whole World to see the gobshite and calls himself a United fan.. you are hurting the club mate! Advantage West Ham

    these leaks need to stop on a serious note Feckin joke. It's not an excuse for United to lose but it does give the opposition an unfair advantage

    this club is more leaky than a Hedgehogs pillow! Leaks and water everywhere!

    not good. Need to find the leak and throw them out the club. Treacherous cnuts! :mad:

    Has to be Lingard. He has a suspiciously good relationship with the media.
    Him or Henderson I'm guessing. Maybe both or even more. I imagine it's disgruntled players not playing. I can't see Donny doing it so it narrows it down :nervous:

    the sooner these bad rotten apples both all feck off this month out of our club the better. If the leaks stop we know who to blame. Treacherous cnuts would be the types leaking battle strategy plans to the Germans during the war. Not the type of characters you want hanging around the dressing room bringing the morale/mood down of the group.

    Oh it's West Ham it's definitely Lingard the leak

    he probably wants to wear his West Ham shirt today to support them. Surprised he hasn't posted a picture of himself wearing it on Instagram again today.

    I highly doubt this changes West Ham’s game plan at all.

    Moyes would of had a good idea of what the side was going to be anyway.

    Absolute must win, like pretty much every game from here. It won’t be easy too. I’m not especially confident going into this one tbh.

    Hope I'm wrong but have a strong feeling we'll get beaten this afternoon - we are the 3pm commentary on 5Live, I see

    Feels exactly like what will be happening.

    West Ham will be desperate to get Jarrod Bowen 1-vs-1 against slabby Maguire to isolate him and expose his weaknesses

    and it's game over.

    hopefully Varane stays close to Maguire to use his pace to make up for Maguire's mistakes. Or could be 2-0 down by halftime.

    Massive match if we want to press on for top 4. Expecting a poor performance, let’s see if we can get a result.

    Whats people's problems with the leaks? I quite like them as I have an Idea of the lineup a lot earlier :lol:

    And our lineups are not that suprising most of the time anyway.

    Win this and top 4 is back on. a 90 minute performance rather than performing for half a match may help.

    The win at Brentford and the resurgence of Bruno are making me optimistic about this game. Bruno is our talisman, whenever he plays well, the team tends to follow and he's been getting back to form. I'm hoping for a comfortable win, but we don't do that here

    Ronaldo had some masterful players to learn from.

    Not sure about the result tonight. I think Utd could get a result if they don't let Westham bully them.

    Will be a close game. Really not much between the two line ups right now.

    So what's the leaked line up? I don't see anything on Paddy's twitter.

    RR thinks the world of him, don't he?

    I wonder how many bad performances & stupid mistakes Maguire must have before managers see the light?
    Maguire has mostly been shit under Ole when his confidence was on the floor and he needed dropping. He hasn't been as terrible under Ralf

    I can't stand the scapegoating of players. I don't rate him above our other CBs but he's still a decent player and much better than he has shown this season (he was much better last season and had a great Euros)

    Let's hope he has a good game and gets back to his normal self.

    This. The 433 allows Bruno to play in his best position and he is still our most important player.
