Match Thread Manchester United v Leicester

That could only be at the Premier League for their scheduling.

Little else that the PL could have done to get the postponed game in before the last day of the season.

 

[Graz]

We need to be ahead in this game before they throw on the big boys.

On paper we should win this, but they've still got the likes of Telles, Matic, Mata, DDG etc in there - not exactly an awful lineup.

We just have to ****ing win.

Big statement to leave Maddison out, but it's the right call. No doubt Perez will stink the place out, and Maddison will come on and play a blinder for 20-30 mins. Then we switch them back next game and we will get the reverse from them again.

I totally agree. But any moaning at Solskjaer from any other manager would be ridiculous. I bet Klopp will mention it through if the big guns are back for Thursday.

I’m not confident, but my lad has got football training so I can’t watch it anyway. Maybe that’s for the best.

They could have played it at the weekend and brought Liverpool's weekend game forward to this week.

 

[homer]

i mean, ****ing hell, look at their team

If we don’t win this ****er against that pile of shit we really should give up the whole ****ing thing and go and play netball or something

Very weak Man U side, though they do have all their top boys on the bench. Expect Pogba, Cavani and Fernandes will come on if they are aren't winning by 60 mins or so..

I had talksport on in car a moment ago and it was hilarious.

So, we're missing Evans, Justin and Barnes. We also have Maddison and Ricardo effectively missing due to their inability to get match fit so both are benched. And we have a Jamie Vardy who is a shadow of his normal self due to playing with injury. In addition, one of our key players is fasting and cannot eat or drink anything until after the game.

He could if he was sly enough

 

[Mike - True Blue Tinter]

He could if he was sly enough

Vardy should slip a couple of Red Bulls into his water bottle!

He can’t drink anything during daylight hours

Look at their bench !

If we can’t beat that lone up then we don’t deserve top six, let alone top four

We do not deserve top 4 after losing to Saints and Newcastle, I was not expecting 10 changes that is for sure.

 

[fitz]

Get them bummed

Well I'm glad that's sorted.
**** sake.

 

[Miles Away]

Please win. Puuuhlllllease

 

[parafox]

I'm praying that Evans will actually be available for saturday...

What have West Brom done to deserve disruption to their schedule?

 

[mabrah]

I guess it was more or less to be anticipated under the circumstances but OGS has thrown us a bit of a lifeline - not that that was his intention of course. We have to take full advantage. Please tell me we can't mess this up.

 

[bocadillo]

I reckon this weakened side of United's actually puts more pressure on our lot. Everybody (other than Leicester fans) is expecting us to win. It's not as easy as that and certainly not for a team that is so low one confidence.
