You're acting as if we've given up on top 4. We need that just as much as they need the title and its not as if we're going into this game high on confidence.
Both teams desperately need a win and it'll probably be decided by a deflection or a piece of brilliance.


Judging by the players reactions and interviews, yes it does feel like we kinda expect not to make the top 4. Even van Gaal seems to echo those thoughts. We can't string a run together to make top 4 plus who in the current top 4 would drop out so we could replace them? None. All the teams above us are far better.

Better teams don't always reap the rewards. Especially in games.

But over a full league season they do. Simply put, we've left ourselves too much to do even if the gap is 6 points. All the teams above us are far more consistent and deservedly occupy the top 4 places. Leicester aren't going away, Arsenal always make top 4, Spurs look ridiculously good this season and finally have a backbone and City have far too much quality to not get them over the line for a top 4 finish.

Its not over until Van Gaal sings.

Memphis made me properly smile today. As a United fan, it's been a while.

If De Gea is out, then it'll be a hammering. Arsenal will want to bounce back from the Barca defeat and reaffirm their title challenge. They'll make a statement against us at OT, I really fear an embarrassing smashing.

Ok but we'll be brimming with confidence after thrashing the mighty Midtjylland and we'll also have Memtiano Depaldo tearing through their defence as if it's not even there. Romero will take on de Gea's spirit just like he did in the away leg vs Midtjylland, batting away shots left, right and centre. Sanchez will be left feeling confused by Blind.

We'll get through this game easily.

Scenes when Memphis doesn't start


Memphis will end Bellerin's career. Hope Rashford doesn't start though, Koscielny will have him in his pocket. Rather go 4-2-2-2 again with Memphis and Lingard as inside forwards.

Is Martial definitely out?

I want to believe we'll make it past the next round but all the other sides left are better than us currently bar Liverpool and Sparta Prague.

Some of the memes of Memphis's performance tonight is a madness, especially that step over and nutmeg he did on that midgetland defender.

Against a nobody team that 95% of fans had never heard of.

Well done...

Dunno man. This season has made me pessimistic.

Haha xD. We'll need an incredible performance to beat Arsenal at the weekend. Its possible but I don't expect our team to show up. Plus 3 games inside 7 days, it'll show when we face Arsenal.

Hope we draw Liverpool in the next round. Weakest team we could draw so would be the best tie for us. Smash em 3-0 at OT and win 1-0 at Juanfield.

No, but probably.

I wouldn't play Memphis up front based off tonight's performance, he was much better when he was given the ball to feet rather than trying to get in behind.

Hopefully Smalling's back...
