Starting to feel a bit of optimism, at least with our striker options.
I went with this prediction originally. Third or fourth will be VERY good after the start we've made. Just need to get everyone fit...I agree with all of this. Third or fourth is where I predict we'll finish and that would qualify as a good season. Anything else is a bonus. That includes any trophies.
Not going well.Better football, less hammerings. Matching last season would be acceptable given the level of competition.
We’re pretty much where we were at the same stage last season in terms of points and performances.Not going well.
Well with the way we have started and the fact that we still have maguire and evans being called to help and martial still starting, I would take top 4 right nowWe will finish 4th because Celski is in a mess and Spurs are not that good despite flying start. Newcastle will pay the price with plsying in CL and tbh, they are not something special.
But finishing 4th should not be labelled as a good season.
I wouldn't. After all investment that we had and manager in place over a year now, just fighting for 4th spot is a bad season for me. Bar must be way higher this season. Trophy, good run in CL and being closer to City than to 4th spot.Well with the way we have started and the fact that we still have maguire and evans being called to help and martial still starting, I would take top 4 right now
One thing is what we want and one thing what we deserve. We are not competing with City, you can sack the manager and bring a new one and we will be in the same boat.I wouldn't.

If we repeat last season (ups and downs, trashing in away games and barelly catching 4th spot) then it is a wasted season
Will stick with my original prediction almost two months ago the teams quality hasn't moved significantly enough with the signings. Right side of the pitch was a non factor last season all the way from wingers to fullbacks United start the season with the same issue.6th place on the premise of this summers activity including the potential purchase of Hojlund. Mount, Hojland and Onana not enough improvement on last season considering the weakness was the attack. It's smug of the club because it's basically saying Rashford's form will need to carry the team again which I don't see happening.
It's not looking good, lads.What I hope for is a genuine title challenge even we don't up winning it and a good Champions League run. Maybe a domestic cup.
What I expect is a Top 5 finish (new CL quota?), and a definitive end to the abhorrent, passive transitional style of football. And don't get eliminated in the group stage of the Champions League.
The team that are considered dark horses Brighton and Villa both have European football, no realistic chance they're cracking the top 4 with a Thursday-Sunday schedule all season.We're basically in the same position as we were last season. Problem is last season's underperformers like Liverpool are doing better, with others like Brighton eyeing a spot in there as well.
