Chris Hughton is as shrewd as Mourinho is.
He won't be phased by anything that is Man Utd, I can't see us winning, but it won't be a walk over.
The fat waiter didn't get any tips today.

What was the first game you looked up when the fixtures came out? OK then so what was the third game, Man Utd away was without doubt amongst the top fixtures that we are all looking forward to.
Do you think that during those celebrations at the end of last season the players also thought about playing at OT. They got the club there, give them the chance to do what all players want and play in these big games.

You watched a different game to me yes they were the better side but didnt cut Spurs to ribbons and had the benefit of some bad referring decisions going their way.,

That is music to my ears. Did you not see some of Arsenal's counter-attacking? Fast-flowing football at it's finest. This is the thing the Albion are lacking at times when it seems we are reluctant to push forward with pace. It will come though. This season is all about not risking too much

Which only produced 2 offside goals but I must say that if you dont attack you wont get the luck. What did impress me though was the way their CB cut out Spurs attacks so perhaps they dont need to chase Dunk in January.

Yes you are right, don't know what I was thinking about, my post was crap.
Also forgot that they play Madrid after us.

Have Watford renamed themselves Madrid.

I’ll be amazed if Ibrahimovic doesn’t start against us.
That does raise a question though.
Would we rather play in a subdued fashion & lose 2.0 or upset them by scoring first & losing heavily.Bearing in mind goal difference may play a big part this season.
I’m asking this as a fan who will be at Old Trafford on Saturday.

Looking forward to Ibrahimovic starting, a 4-0 win for us and a rousing chorus of "what a difference you have made"
Not that ive been holding a grudge or bitter for the last 30 odd years.

It will be the Duffy and Dunk show! Another game where our opponents have an off day and blame it on champions league fixtures, hangover from international friendlies, the referee, the tea lady, or thinking about Christmas and all the analysis is on why United played so poorly and not giving any credit to how well we played! I think we are capable of getting a result...but then again I'm an optimist!

Lets be realistic, were probably loose. I don't care what the tactics are, so long as we do the shirt proud and make them work for whatever they get.
It would also be nice to score to give those going a goal to celebrate.
