The old Man Utd Thread

[Guest]

If we keep playing pretty well that last game of the season against Chelsea could be a biggie

[5R7]

next 4 league games - Brighton, Burnley, Leicester and Fulham...they are winnable! then liverpool

 

Ole could set a new league wins record as  a new manager here!

 

although the arsenal game is after brighton, but still, thats FA cup

Who do we play after he's won his 12th game in a row? 

[5R7]

after liverpool, is palce, southampton...then...psg! which should be good

 

and then..arsenal, city, watford

[Mr Do 71]

Martial close to agreeing new five year contract. 

[the_debaser]

Probably why he started playing well the last couple of months, contract negotiation time coming up!

[5R7]

OR, hes actually been playing week in week out, and being allowed to actually play!

 

and it seems we have a settled first team!

 

apparently shaw is out, pulled out during the warmup

 

[Mr Do 71]

POGBA! 

[5R7]

ill take that, means brighton will have to open a bit more, giving us a bit more space to get a few more! lets hope!

 

then, lets hope for a draw between chelsea and arsenal !

[Mr Do 71]

Rashford!! 

[5R7]

odds on this ending 3-1 must be high then lol

[5R7]

well, that was hard at the end there!

[Mr Do 71]

Squeaky bum time.

[ckny]

Pleased with the Arsenal result too, three points away from the top 4!

His form has been excellent for most of the season. If anything he's dipped a bit in the last few weeks from the heights he was hitting. There was a period a few months ago when he was scoring all our goals. 

 

I can't believe we've somehow got within sight of top four. Bizarre. 

[Loik V credern]

Another neat goal from Rashford. For all of the praise Mbappe gets, he doesn't score technically difficult or attractive goals. He's massively benefited from playing in teams at their very best among the most talented in-form players in the world. Rashford has had to prove himself more, has had to sieze the moment in games, or carve out an opportunity that barely presents itself. A true measure of quality for me, and..i just like to see goals that make me go wow i didn't expect him to score from there.

What's everyone's thoughts for tonight? We could do with challenging for the FA Cup, given how we are unlikely to defeat PSG in the UCL. 

 

I also hope that we can keep the momentum going in our quest to squeeze into the top 4. In Ole we trust! 

[5R7]

well...

[Seanfl9]

Be interesting to see if Rom and Alexis are up for this tonight. Both have a big point to prove.

[5R7]

arsenal have gone full blown first team in this!

 

so...could be interesting. but yeah, alexis and lukaku really need to show their worth!

[Mr Do 71]

ALEXIS!! 

[Mr Do 71]

And now LINGARD wants a goal.

To think I almost got up to make a cup of tea 4 minutes ago.

 

Glad I didn't.

I was just about to come in here and moan that our tactics of hitting them on the counter weren’t ever going to work with lethargic Lukaku up top and then this happens!

[Seanfl9]

Seeing how clinical we have become makes me smile. Although seeing Rom and Sanchez stepping up and being involved in the goals makes me happier. 

 

We should be able to grab a third in the 2nd half when they come bombing forward. 

[5R7]

arsenals goal, created by aaron ramsey...who has been brilliant for arsenal in the last few games...who arsenal are letting leave...for free...LOL!

See, I still think Arsenal have pretty much been all over us and other than the two goals we haven’t looked very convincing. Interesting setup for the second half and I’m looking forward to it.

[Seanfl9]

Yeah, that Arsenal goal is the least they deserve tbh. Hopefully we can take it up a gear in the second half because the space is there for the front 4 to cause mayhem.

Who's co-commentating with Guy Mowbray on BBC1.

 

Is it Jermaine Jenas?

[feltmonkey]

Martial is having a shocker since he came on.
