We would prefer you to do the Redknapp vs Blackburn.Let's not play reserves, but do the Gerrard pass to Drogba.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) was joined by comedian Ali Woods to look back at the best and worst moments of a rollercoaster season with the annual United Hour Awards.
Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?
We have a good chance to finish 4th. We are ahead of Arsenal in terms of ability and consistency now with Ole steering the ship. Chelsea are a strange one. If they get Hilguain and he hits the ground running could be a close one. However I am confident we will finish 4th.
I'd give them a guard of honour before the game.Let's not play reserves, but do the Gerrard pass to Drogba.
Leave the scousers in no doubt what will happen next.
Credit to Spurs for getting through that one, but now it looks like Alli could be missing for a few weeks as well!
Big 3 points for Spurs. 3 favourable home fixtures now which should see them safe in 3rd.
There are two teams fighting for the title. There is one team secure in 3rd and there are 3 teams fighting for 4th.
Lovely catch 22 for Man Utd coming up. Do you try and beat City and go for fourth, or sacrifice that and bend over to try and stop us from winning the title?
I dont see why Spurs are home and dry for third. Good win but it was Fulham. They can and will drop points. Definitely in a good position but its football. Weird sht happens.
If Alli is out as well then those games will be a real test. They're basically down to Eriksen to win them games
We're going to beat you on February 24th first
Gutted Spurs didn't drop points. With Dier and Sissoko coming back they should find it a bit easier. Son should be back in a few weeks as well.
We play Liverpool long before we play City. Lots can happen between now and then.
Also I don't think a United team would ever 'bend over' for anyone, unlike yous who happily bent over for Chelsea in 2010 to stop us winning another title.
We will beat you first. I think we'll be in top 4 by the time City game arrives
Honestly, it's not a catch 22.
I think most (all) United fans would come fifth if it meant Liverpool not winning the title.... I'd take fifteenth/lose to Arsenal in the F A Cup/lose to PSG, if it stopped Liverpool winning the title
Hopefully well beat both poo and city.
I certainly wouldn't, that's absolutely pathetic. CL is massively important, financially and for signing players. How can any Manchester United supporter not want what is best for Manchester United? Liverpool have started progressing because they got CL football and become attractive to players like Van Dijk and Alisson. Yes their fans, media will be annoying but next September hearing the Europa League music at Old Trafford while all other big clubs played CL in the days before would be more annoying.
15 games left, 9 of them at home with a 7 (basically 8 with GD) point advantage.
*strokes chin*
You really should speak for yourself. United winning and coming in fourth would be an incredible achievement after the position Jose left us in.
A lot of fans don't give a damn what happens to Liverpool. It's all about united and what's best
I don't agree, maybe fans who don't get it, but the ones who do, want nothing more than Liverpool to fail once again.
They don't have a great home record
They have a very bad habit of managing to win football matches when it looks unlikely.
Their passing accuracy and fitness levels are extremely high.
And of course they have a number of very good players.
I'd happily finish in 8th if it meant Pool didn't win the league.
Not convinced by Chelsea at all. Now the manager's questioning the player's effort as well, so implosion might be on the cards.
Spurs scraped it today and now Dele is injured their squad will be pushed to the limit.
Arsenal are inconsistent.
I'm confident we'll get Top 4.
While i dislike them as much as every other fan i think you've gone a bit far, it will hurt if they win the league of course, but they will still be 1 behind us and it would give us so much motivation to go on and win it next season. They'll be unbearable to listen to but understandable cause they've suffered for so long.
That's the spirit. Don't give a feck about Liverpool. They will not come anywhere near United's achievements in the PL era in my lifetime and I'm 45. Neither will City, Chelsea, Arsenal, and certainly not Spurs. If finishing 4th somehow helps Liverpool win the league, then so be it. We need CL football next season at all cost. We're not going to get their throwing league matches away. Look at the bright side. If Liverpool do win the league, RM will be hard for Klopp. Maybe they hire Jose next season to replace Klopp. I'd actually prefer they won the league over City if the later were a sure thing.
Spurs escaped today but they're going to lose lots of points with this rate. I think we may catch them. 3rd is very possible.
Can someone post next 5 PL fixtures for each top 4 team?it would be interesting the order of fixtures and where points could be dropped etc
Yeah feck that. I put our success first and will take comfort if we did lose to City in the fact it screwed Pool, first and foremost though I'd want to win.
What is this shit?
What about 10th? Or 11th?
They've lost to us, Liverpool, City and Wolves and won the rest. The hardest home game they've got left is Arsenal.
They're fecking dreadful. One dimensional, shades of big Phil Scolari about them again. I've seen nothing outside of Hazard in them that would enhance our team. Now the manager has gone full Mourinho also and starting selling decent backup options and bringing no one in.
Fulham need to be relegated twice for that.
Ole was confident about catching Spurs and I agree.
Think we will get 3rd.
Ole was confident about catching Spurs and I agree.
Think we will get 3rd.
They're eighth in the home league table. Even if they have had tough games it means those games are even harder for them away from home next time round.
Its really not a positive in any way.
What difference is there between 8th and 10th ? or even 17th ?
Hm, not so sure. We’ll drop at least 8 points between now and the end of the season, probably more, which means Spurs need to drop 15 or so points before we catch them. With 15 games to go, 9 of which are at home, that doesn’t seem likely tbh.
From fewer games though.
