    Utd to go one further than they cheated the other year. 10-0, with Baby Fernandes getting a goal or two.

    Mike Dean ****ing himself into a frenzy. With that other ****clug who’s name I’ve forgotten licking his balls for 90 minutes.

    And we will be back bottom, and then we will have completed the game with 11 players who can all **** off.

    I think we will do well here, we always turn up against the bigger sides.

    Macca;
    KWP, Bednerak, ABK, Perraud;
    Lavia, JWP;
    Walcott, Alcaraz, Sulemana;
    Adams.

    Bazunu, AMN, Salisu, Diallo, Moi, Stuey, Edozie, Mara, Onuachu.

    The first of three games in a week, and it's comfortably the most difficult of the three. I'd have absolutely no problem if Selles wanted to rest a handful of players.

    If McCarthy recovers from his latest injury, then I would have him starting ahead of Bazunu. His confidence levels yesterday looked so low, and I fear what a drubbing at OT might do to him. Yes he kept a clean sheet yesterday, but he didn't have to make a single save to get that.

    All the players should clip their toenails so VAR on our side.

    Utd look great at the moment but with their schedule being so busy they are bound to crack at some point, probably when they are least expecting it.

    Hopefully they rest some key players.

    For us, full strength, every game is winnable.

    Rather hoping this afternoon that VVD boots Casemiro into the stands, and Bruno gets sent off for being Bruno.

    Yes. In our favour - is that when we get points - we don't do deserved draws, it's very much improbable wins! :)

    I'm a half full kinda guy! Whatever the result, I think we are going to perform well.

    Hopefully we can get utd on an off day or they are too complacent.

    The Leicester result was a sight for sore eyes.

    Hopefully today's result will have dented Utd's confidence significantly and Ten Hag decides to go with the B team (or even under 11s). If they can repeat today's performance, then that would be nice.

    Fingers crossed it’s like when we followed up their drubbing against Newcastle in the 90s

    8-2 Saints

    As Saints fans, we'd immediately assume that if we ever lose 7-0, this would be the start of a long downhill period for us, ultimately ending in relegation. However, if the team that we're playing next loses 7-0, we immediately assume that they'll be fired up and will beat us easily. Still, at least being pessimistic means you're never disappointed.
