I confidently predict we will match City's result against Newcastle. Whatever it is, W, L or D, we will match it to stay four points off 4th. That's just how LVG rolls.

I feel these are prophetic words.

City don't win and the following night van Gaal doesn't have the balls to cut the team loose to go for a win. Again.

Draw written all over it. If not, we'll lose.
 
With 5 points difference and 5 games to go AND a game in hand, in theory we should have more chance of overhauling City than Spurs do of overhauling Leicester.

And yet Spurs look more likely than we do. That's how ridiculously **** the twat in charge is.
 
A win and we go within two points of City.

Had we beaten Norwich at OT, a win tonight would take us a point ahead of City.
 
Interesting to note that only Spurs have conceded fewer goals (25) than us (30) this season. Our problem is our meagre tally of only 40 goals to date. By that goals/points ratio, had we scored just 12 more goals we would be vying for 2nd spot.

LVG forgot to sign another striker. Imagine the force of the forehead slap he gave himself on 3rd September when it dawned on him.
 
I can't for the life of me, remember if I've already got Alan (the mockney spiv) Pardew on my list of mediocre managers who have got the better of Van Gaal. Sadly the search button doesn't seem to work and I can't be arsed trying to find it. I have to say that was a fcking glorious list. Inside 18 months some of the world's most useless cretins and substandard managers had put that complete moron in his place. Embarrassment.

It's a good list. Very good list, actually.

Mata up front?

I am genuinely a little perplexed by that front 4.

More than that he's brought Darmian back in..... at Left Back! Don't get me wrong, he can play at LB but it does make you wonder why? Or whether there's any rhyme or reason to him doing this. It has nothing to do with the cup game on Saturday.

I think he says 'first one to run to the middle plays in the middle'. Basically the slowest defender plays on the furthest side.

I can't think of anything else tbh.
