Premier League
White Hart Lane
Last weekend we had a disappointing trip to a new, largely disliked stadium.
This Sunday we say goodbye to an old and beloved one.
The last game at White Hart Lane.
The end of an era.
Our league campaign may be all but over, but it's vital that we do this the right way.
There's not a lot left to play for but pride, so that pride needs to be on full display.
The last North London Derby at this ground went perfectly.
Our performance in this game needs to match the occasion, too.
Our visitors came into this season with a lot of hope and expectation.
Van Gaal's FA Cup win wasn't enough to keep him in the job, so he was replaced by Jose Mourinho.
An already talented squad was bolstered by big signings.
Bailly, Ibrahimovic, Mkhitaryan and Pogba all had big reputations and added to the anticipation.
Has The Special One delivered? Yes and no.
The aims at the start of the campaign would've been a top four finish and some silverware.
The former looks impossible, while the latter's already been delivered.
Another piece could well be on it's way too, if tonight's game goes as expected.
Winning the Europa League would also secure Champions League football, so a top four finish wouldn't matter.
Things wouldn't have been perfect at Old Trafford, but that would makes things perfectly acceptable.
Utd's recent form will also have been something of a boost, barring last week's loss to the Goons.
A 25 match unbeaten run in the league is impressive by anyone's standards.
The football played during that run hasn't always been up to Ferguson's high standards, though.
That lack of flair was very costly to van Gaal, but it hasn't been an issue for his successor. Yet...
Our trip to Old Trafford earlier in the season was a frustrating one.
We had the majority of the possession, but failed to create chances and didn't take the few that came.
Henrikh Mkhitaryan scored the only goal, his first in the Premier League.
Wanyama missed a simple header and should also have had a penalty, but it wasn't to be.

The game at the Lane last season looked like it would similar, until a crazy six minutes changed it all.
Van Gaal set his team up to defend and they rarely looked interested in attacking.
They kept us out pretty well though, until Fosu-Mensah picked up an injury and was forced off.
Darmian's introduction didn't go quite as well as they would've hoped and this happened:

Marouane Fellaini will see out the last game of his suspension for this one, as the only banned player.
Winks, Lamela and Carter-Vickers all miss out again, but Rose is back in training, so we await news.
Utd have an extensive injury list, including Ibrahimovic, Rojo, Shaw, Young and Fosu-Mensah.

What changes, if any, are needed, following the loss to West Ham?
Should we switch to three at the back or should one of Dembele or Dier drop to the bench?
Does anyone need to be rested or dropped in other areas?
