Utd will be up for this I don't think it will be an easy win. There are signs of things coming together there, Jose has dropped Chunk and the afro lampost and is putting the right players out there. The break is at a bad time for them though. If we're sharp and up for it then we win, no need to fear them we have too much for them, pin then back and take the chances.
Hope you right, love coming on here many of you are always so positive. I am from mfg school of thought oh and jaffa
Think we may struggle with some of their longer balls, esp with Karius/Migs in goal but think they will struggle with our pressing too
If we had any sort of consistency i would feel confident cause we have played well this season in parts, but all i have ever known is us stuffing up against United, 2014 since last league win, double against us twice
I fancy us to beat them this year though, we have a much better attacking line up than we have had last season. Hoping our pressing will be too much for them to handle.
I just think its a big game and first under lights at new anfield so we will probably play well. I am not inpressed by utd and i dont think they have clicked yet. I think matip v ibrahimovic will be very interesting.
Hey... Excuse me but van gaal is a utd legend. If you ignore fergsons record then van gaal stands up quite well to the record of the managers in the 70s and 80s. He won an fa cup just like big ron...... Its not van gaals fault utd fans have an unrealistic expectation based on history.
Early days, but I'm not seeing that much of an upgrade on Mig so far. Karius didn't instil confidence in me with his decision making or his command of the box and his distribution was iffy. I'm willing to give him time, but I think the belief that he's a distinct improvement is premature.
For me hes not caught one single cross i think and missed 3/4 since his debut v hull. Thats not good.
