    "What separates the top players is that they have that picture in their head before it happens. Pogba doesn't have that for me."

    He'll say a variation of that at some stage.
     
    A draw here under normal circumstances wouldn’t be the worst result. The fact that we’ve drawn three games on the trot that should all have been wins means that this is now a must win. The scousers have got too close for comfort.
     
    I love this lineup. Possibly my favourite lineup all season so far - everyone here is pretty good with the ball, can control it well and pass it pretty well. Expecting to see some fluid play.

    Liverpool made 7 changes and played a weak team v Burnley. There is no excuses. The players we put out have enough to beat Everton so they need to man up and get it done.

    Not saying it should be an excuse, I'm just not confident we can win.
     
    It's going to be a horrible game, not sure why I'm going to watch it. I guess I'm addicted.

    This line up tonight with pogba as 10 martial as 9 and Shaw in the team is what a lot of fans have asked for, be interesting to see if they are right or if we will struggle playing this way too

    I don’t really think it matters what the fans want if the players aren’t applying themselves. I have seen arguments on CAF that Lukaku isn’t needed and that Rashford/Martial are better than Lukaku.

    Lo & behold....Rashford has had his chances in few games now and he looks completely useless in the role. The mentality of the players need to change.

    How many positive contributions in attack does he have per game? Rarely puts in a decent cross or scores. Not good enough in today's game. Even Valencia contributes more going forward.

    Who on earth are you on about?
     
    I'm so desperate I'm wishing this would turn into a 3-5-2 with Lingard as rightwingback.
     
    If Pogba plays number 10, i might actually lose it. Oh and Mata/Lingard, they wont be around those positions twice during the game, specially Lingard, you can put him as CB, somehow he would find him self in ST position.
     
    Seems we'll set up in a 433, which is a start.

    Can't expect it to just click like that, though, and that Pogba will be a world beater because he's presumably playing as a left sided centre midfielder.

    We need the right movement, the right personnel, etc.

    Hoping we have a good game, though.
     
    Why do I get the feeling Rooney is going to have a blinder and score the winner...

    Most of the critical posters seem to be FM junkies who basically think Utd should have this player and that

    Another example of someone reading something and jumping to an assumptive conclusion. Would love it if Shaw became more efficient going forward as he is a good fullback. Hope it changes for sure.

    Anyway JP what’s the situation with Malcom over in Bordeaux?

    :D

    I have no idea about Malcom, lately in terms of football I haven't followed anything outside of United.
     
    If anyone's got a non-choppy river, please pm me
     
    Come on Utd!! Need to win this to get over the awful December. And, we are off!
