    There's absolutely no chance we will win. This has frustrating draw written all over it.
     
    Been a while since have not looked forward to a game and with the results today even more so. We need to play with urgency from the off and it will be Leicester that does it even if we are desperate for 3 points like them

    Will take a lucky own goal or bad decision penalty right now - anything to get us on the winning track again.
     
    Draw written all over this, and another gift from our rivals is sadly going down the drain
     
    No matter how hard I try, i can't get excited about the game. Been let down too many times.
     
    Don't get your hopes up lads, certain we will fail to win here despite the obvious incentive of a victory :(
     
    Have to put out a team to win from the off. Would rather take an early lead and then go conservative later, than be conservative all game and then desperately chase it at the end:

    De Gea

    Valencia Jones Rojo Blind

    Pogba Herrera

    Mkhitaryan Mata Martial

    Ibrahimovich


    Subs: Romero, Smalling, Bailly, Carrick, Rooney, Rashford, Lingard​
     
    Liverpool lost, Arsenal lost, i'm absolutely sure that we're going to feck this up. We have done the same thing last couple of times when we had the chance to make up ground on the teams above us.
     
    What are the odds on us spurning another opportunity to really make a dent in the gap between us and the top 4. It's so frustrating looking back at where we'd be if we had taken those previous opportunities.

    And I know that all teams can look back at dropped points and wonder 'what if', but it doesn't make it any less frustrating.
     
    I would love to see a 4 man midfield with Ibra playing behind Rashford. Just once.
     
    Such a shame

    Had we beaten Hull a win tomorrow would have put us level with Arsenal and ahead of Liverpool

    I've no great belief going into the game and I think Leicester might raise their game like they did versus City

    Id go for it

    -----------------------DDG-------------------------
    Valencia---Bailly------Rojo--------Shaw
    ------------------Herrera--Pogba-------------
    Mhiki-----------------Mata------------Martial
    --------------------------Ibra----------------------

    I just hope if players aren't performing they are subbed regardless of reputation
     
    Again we have been given another golden oppurtunity to close the gap, and if the team cant find it in themselves to go for the throat right from the off then some serious questions need to be asked about their mentality and desire to win.

    Sadly based on our last 3 "must win" games i can only see a draw or a defeat with vardy suddenly remembering how to score, and Schmeichel Jr Channeling the ability of Buffon, Van der sar and his dad.

    1-0 or 1-1

    The sheer number of occasions it has happened coupled with the fact we have outplayed teams in 90% of those games makes it incredibly hard to take. Oh and it seems out players have to be physically pole axed in the box to get a penalty.

    Would take a 1-0 by virtue of our second penalty of the season, won't happen though..
     
    No way we win tomorrow. We never capitalize on any points dropped by top 5 above us. Stop getting your hopes up. I just hope we play well.
     
    So Liverpool coming down like the Christmas decorations and there's no doubt a good chance we won't take advantage... that's how much lack of faith I have in us winning tomorrow:(
     
    Too many results have gone our way, we're bound to drop points.
     
    There is no way in hell we won't turn up tomorrow. Some of you girls need to grow a pair!
    Massive performance, turn on the gas in every position and put these pathetic champions to bed.
    0-1 United.
     
    I'm sure we'll win this quite comfortably by a couple of goals. But maybe that's naive given our ridiculous finishing and multiple goalkeepers all assuming the god mode role.
     
    We will win this. If Martial doesn't start then Mourinho needs sacking. He doesn't have much of a leg to stand on if he leaves him out again.
     
    The legend that is Marco Silva has done us a huge favour.

    We must win tomorrow to go 1 point behind LFC.

    Martial BETTER START!!!

    Tough ask that now - Everton do of course have one guaranteed loss in their remaining games (the derby at Anfield), but even that won't give us much scope to cement 6th when we can't score a fecking goal. But 7th won't be so bad - we've been there before, it'll be like being reunited with an old friend :)
     
    Hull have improved massively since we beat them in the semi 1st leg, I knew it would be a tough ask to beat them at OT in the league, I thought we would scrap a 1-0 win though. They comfortably dispatched Liverpool, so they are a different prospect to Leicester, who look a little bit all over the place this season. I think they'll get relagated, there is no end to their rot that is setting in.

    I predicted 1-1 for the Leicester game but I do think actually that their defence is shambolic and we could get some golden chances.
     
    Just when we had wasted our latest opportunity to close into the top 4, so another opportunity knock. Our latest 'must win' match.

    At some point we have to capitalise and move up from 6th! Its so weird winning and drawing so many matches and not move up or down the table. Like we are stranded in some twilight zone.

    Utterly bizzarre season

    Couldn't agree more. I guarantee you Martial won't start. Fellaini will. We will huff and puff.

    The only reason we will win is it won't change our league position. We are the 6 th best team. That's that.

    We'll score early on after getting off to a flying start.

    Ibra (76')

    :lol:

    On a serious note it's about time we did something in the first half. We haven't scored in the first half of a league game this year. It fecking stinks and suggests we have a problem.
