Match Day Thread United vs Villa - We're gonna need a bigger boat

I sense in my loins an even bigger dismantling of Unai Emery's spoofers than the demolition of Boxing Day.

Martinez is injured but he didn't play that game either. AWB did, but Dalot's been the best RB in the galaxy since Tuesday so all's well.

Eriksen was tremendous so let's bandage him up like an ancient Egyptian mummy and wheel him out once again.

Btw that was the first game Ten Hag played Rashford on the left with Garnacho on the right. An inspired strategic change which no one in the world had ever thought of. Ever.

Let's go with...

-------------------Onana
Dalot---Varane---Maguire---Shaw
------------Mainoo-------Eriksen----------
Garnacho---Bruno---Rashford
-------------------Hojlund

Yeh yeh ok I know it'll be Casemiro instead of Eriksen. Fck the kasbah.

Prediction: 1-6 to United by HT

 

Thank the Gods you made this thread, it was getting so late i thought i might have to do it

Villa worry me, they are like two different teams sometimes **** somtimes pretty good (a bit like us i suppose).
If we play as we have the last few games we should win but if the lethargy sneaks back in at all we are toast.

 

If we win this we're six whole points behind premier league title contenders Ange ball FC.

With twelve games to go.

I know all too well 4th place is not a trophy, but if, we did get that, it would be a hell of an uplift from the first half of the season.

Will be watching later in Le Flying Pig.

 

Our superb goal difference will **** us anyway.

 

Well half time 0-1, so far so good but Villa have been cutting through us far too easily.
We need 2 more goals to win this i fear.

 

Resilient performance against a very good side, Hojlund looks really up for it, everyone played their part and an excellent result away from home. Not long ago we would have suffered a second half collapse and lost 2 - 1, so promising for the future, shame about Shaw though.

 

These threads don't write themselves.

 

Seriously should be aiming for 18 points from this lot (not including the Cup game obv)

 

You deserve player of the season for your threads performance.

Nostradamus!

 

I'm the only one that does them

We need to recruit some more reds to the forum ffs.

 

Oi, i did one

 

Your one every three months is not helping!

 

If we average 2 points per game between now and the end of the season we make top 4.

That's a win and a draw every two games.

 

Or 2 wins and a loss every 3 games, i could live with that.

 

The problem with losing one every three games is that it psychologically impacts the team beyond the lost game. Draws on the other hand apparently make you into the invincibles.
