Wonder if they’ll be awarded a penalty again, maybe this time they’ll be on the bus home when the players are called back?

Maybe... only speculation but I think he has some kind of issue that will be dealt with after the season, making him limited to sub appearances. It is strange that he would go from starting in the decent win over Watford and then barely appearing at all without some other reason than other midfielders doing well... Could of course be wrong.

I think the eleven today will be:

Sanchez

Veltman, Dunk, Webster, Cucurella

Lamptey, Macallister, Bissouma, Caicedo, Trossard

Welbeck

Give or take a Pascal Gross.

I'd be quite happy with either of those TBH. What we'll lose in pace with Gross we'll gain in crossing accuracy and chance creation. I think (hope) this is a United side whose heads will go down collectively if we open the scoring.

I'm confident that they are there for the taking. Unfortunately I've felt that way each time we've played them in the last three years and we have lost them all. With that in mind I imagine the same will happen and we'll probably end up giving them their biggest win of the season. Even though they really are there for the taking.

Quite strange actually thinking we should win v Man Utd,I think the wins in the past were perhaps a suprise to many but no eyebrows will be raised anywhere if we do manage to win. I think Maupay and Welbeck will start today perhaps Maupay will play a little bit closer to Welbeck,I get the 2 wide front men routine but clubs will have sussed that now and Maupay definitely needs someone to hold the ball up for him,close game but 1 nil to us probably a penalty :goal:

Central midfield they are weak. Swamp that area again like we've done last few games we should dominate possession. Keep Ronaldo quiet and I'm quietly confident. Good news that Maguires back for them. His confidence must be shot

Hopefully the north stand crowd into the south and south west corner, that would improve the atmosphere 100%.

What a goal. Duffy scored two minutes after, then Gross with a pen before half time. What a game.

That was just a few games after beating them at home the previous season too. Let's do it again.

Great goal. The finish is excellent but what really makes it classy is GMs movement to mind**** the defender.
