    It would be against Burnley. Probably the only team who look worse than us ATM.

    I don't think Mourinho would be sacked, but I think United would start sending out feelers if that happens and getting something lined up behind the scenes for December/January

    If we lose to Burnley, I don't see how Mourinho claws anything back for the season. Except maybe a league cup
     
    What if we lose this? Then what for Jose? Joke he’s still the manager going into this game to be honest.
     
    They are a phsycial team & are very strong at home. With our defensive frailties I can't see us keeping them out. Can not see us scoring more than 1 goal either given out restrictions going forward. Only chance I see us getting a win is if we aim all our shots to Joe Hart's left, although given we onlt average about 2 shots on target per game I can't see it.

    2-1 Burnley

    3 straight losses will surely that will spell the end for Jose.

    Don't count on it.

    LVG lost 3 on the bounce to teams like Norwich, Stoke & West Brom & kept his job til the end of the season.

    We just have to accept this season is a write-off. Jose will be gone at the end of the season.

    I want Mourinho gone as much as any other clued-in United fan does, but it's the 1st of September!
     
    In what world do people think 3 losses means an immediate sack? That's wishful thinking. Completely agree with those who say unless it's something ridiculous like 7 in a row we're stuck with him.
     
    Don't think the board will construe 3 losses as sackable this early in the season because top 4 will still be very salvagable. However LVG not getting the sack after those losses isn't a great example because it assumes the board don't realise what a mistake that was.

    I'll guess he just needs to stay within touching distance of top 4 till January window and he'll be safe
     
    I'm really not sure who will partner Smalling, part of me even wonders if Mourinho might play Herrera as a CB with him.

    I almost think he will start Fellaini. 3 games in, 2 defeats, the itch must be getting to him.

    Can't afford to give any silly free kicks just outside our box. They have some excellent dead ball specialists. So maybe give Fellaini the miss for this one.
     
    If we cannot beat a post-Europa League Burnley convincingly, then I give up!
     
    :lol:

    Teams tgat excel at set pieces, excel against Utd! There is no secret to how Burnley will line up and play, Utd have had a full week to prepare for their tactics. Lets see how long it takes to unravel tomorrow?

    Imagine, we're not actually on TV. They are not televising this match in the UK.

    How pathetic that we are playing football on a Sunday afternoon yet can't actually watch it in the country the match is being played. There are half a dozen sport channels between Sky & BT and none of them could squeeze in this match.

    Thanks PL, great deal you did there.
