    This has all the traits of a game that underdelivers, I'm sure the atmosphere in the ground will be amazing which hopefully plays its part to make sure it's not a frustrating game but after all the hype and excitement it just feels like we're in for a low scoring game which we may even drop points in if we make it all about Ronaldo

    I have had a feeling all week that Ronaldo will score a hat-trick (I think he has had over 50?). Unlikely, but you never know

    Think it will be:-

    DDG
    Awb, Varane, Harry, Shaw
    Fred, Pogba
    Bruno
    Greenwood CR7 Sanchez


    What a line up! With Martial on the bench to come on and later in the year Rashford and Cavani!!! Buzzing for this now.

    Torn between finding a river or having a media blackout and watching it at 8pm on sky.
    does anyone know of any reliable rivers that’ll let me cast/airplay to my tv?

    Not forgetting Young and Smalling. Depay to come on and do a job. Shame Fellaini isn’t fit

    I'm glad that Ronaldo is back at United. But I'm honestly more excited about seeing United play at all.

    We're only 3 games deep into the season and already had pointless international break ruining the flow. I'd be happy with a team of Andreas Pereiras playing at this stage.

    Can't wait for this match. Cristiano is the cherry on top.
    Well, you can watch Flamengo. They are doing really well In Brazil.

    This has been my plan all week, to big of a game to be getting disturbed by constant buffering.

    To apply a “one size fits all” rotation policy to Ronaldo is nonsense. If he wants to start every game, he does, period - he is one of the GOATs, not just a regular top class footballer.
    To suggest that just because he's one of the GOATs he's either non-human (not susceptible to fatigue) or he can do whatever he likes to the detriment of the planning of the team, is pure nonsense. Away with that BS.

    Seeing more people with Ronaldo shirts outside OT than every other player combined.
