Pre Match Manchester United v Leicester

[dpjfox]

Back to the serious stuff, obviously a few players will return,imo only Okizaki and Musa did enough last night to push for recalls, certainly both should be on the bench. Hopefully Mendy will be on the bench to give us an opportunity to rest Drinkwater at some stage as he appeared exhausted last night.
Man U are sure to improve at some stage but i they dont we can win this. I would be happy with a 1-1 draw Slimani

We are in line for an absolute battering here, which is shit seeing as I'm going.

Probably what Watford thought as well before they played them!

Possibly the best time to play them before Jose sorts out the mess and the dead wood!

I'm not hugely optimistic myself. It all lines up for a potentially long day.

Still, we will see ay?

I thought Gray had a very good game and would prefer him on the bench to Musa for the Manure match (prefer Musa to Ulloa though). I'd be happy with Zieler starting who also had a good game but pretty sure Kasper will start. If Mahrez has a good game I can see us winning; I think Slimani will bag another double.

Slimani has changed my outlook on corners and long throws. Before I had to hope that Huth connected well, now slimani is a danger and because he is Wes and Huth are even more of a danger and Vardy becomes available for the loose ball.

I think Okazaki may work well alongside Slimani too - perhaps he could get a chance over Vardy at sometime.

Be even worse when you see the starting line up - big Jeff playing up front as a lone striker

Have a nice day

Sorry Homey but the words 'Jeff' and 'striker' should never be used in the same sentence!

 

[Graz]

This was 2 years ago today... Omen for this Saturday?

 

[Mike - True Blue Tinter]

Yes. That was a 5-3 win for the HOME team!

We have won only twice at Old Trafford in the last 40 years!

Unless you're talking about West Brom legends.

So it is not not an easy place to go and get a win, which is why I think with their team in 'turmoil', now is probably as good a chance as we will get this season.

I think this came up today on many people's Facebook, I know mine came up with a copy of the scoreboard photo and also 2 other links from that day about the game.

It's the only chance we will get this season.

 

[Mike - True Blue Tinter]

Which is why it is the best chance!

What a lucky goal by that shit Cambiasso waste-of-space. Just swung a leg at it.

 

[pork pie fox]

Still great watching that.

Jeff Schluup scores too.

Whilst I'm not a huge Stringer fan, I did enjoy listening to his commentary again.
