Manchester United (H) Pre-Match

Man Utd seem to be a Jekyll & Hyde team much like us.  The difference is that we can look fantastic or hopeless from game to game whereas United seem to do it in spurts.  They can go for periods looking like Rotherham and then go on a run of games looking like Real.  The bad news is that they're on one of their good runs at the moment.

 

How do you know?

 

It may have ended with the last match.

Pessimism, I need to be reading more pessimism 

We rarely win on Boxing Day. We rarely beat Man Utd. We rarely win a 12.30pm k.o.

Man Utd usually win on Boxing Day and regularly get a result v us.

 

Mike Dean is the ref.

 

Only going one way.

 

Not sure how much more pessimism is required....

Got a strong feeling we'll lose today. Not by fault of BR or the players, just that they really are the better team despite being a hideous club.

 

With a bit of luck, someone can snap rat faces ankle.

 

It's really funny to say it, but, their weakness to exploit is that bulk of sh1t, Maguire.

In what way are they the 'better team'. Defensively weak, they have to play two defensive midfielders to cover up for Maguire's weakness. De Gea is a liability - vastly overrated. Rashford blows hot and cold. Pogba, a waste of money. Matic, a has been. Martial, an expensive flop

Yet they’re a point behind us with a game in hand, with all those flaws...

In what way are they the better team...

 

Defensively weak - we aren't exactly concrete with Evans & Fuchs. For all his potential and credits, Fofana is very prone to mistakes from over commitment. Not to mention we'd concede a set piece to a team of dwarfs.

 

De Gea Liability- prone to mistakes and moments of excellence.  Still overall better than Kasper who still can't kick a a ball.

 

Rashford- Okay he's not Rooney yet but he's devastating to teams.

 

As for all the others you mention, Maddison turns up for one game every couple of months, Barnes shows potential but has zero composure...

 

I could go on but the short answer is they are better than us in every position. The only two players I'd take from our 11 into theirs would be Vardy and Ndidi. Cag's if he was fit also.

 

If Fergie had this squad,  they would be as threatening as Liverpool.

Utd are a decent team when they at it. Lets hope they've been on the sauce for the last few days and turn up with a Hangover.

Right now I'd take a draw. But we're over due a win so lets hope we put in a good performance.

Lets be brave and go for a win.

Our team is building nicely into a really good team with another window or two.

A team that lost 6-1 to Spurs, went out of the Champions League in a weak group, lucky to beat Brighton, lost to Palace....

 

Are you a Man Utd fan in disguise?

I don't why they're all diving in on you anyway. It's not like you said we are miles ahead just that they are not better . Surely the table so far proves that.:dunno:
