8-2 to us.

Young with a brace, and Rooney with a hattrick.

Welbeck to score for them. Van Persie to score for us.

Good chance to see a few of the youngsters get some minutes here (Wilson, Pereira and Januzaj specifically, McNair gets plenty anyways), as it's a pretty meaningless game apart from pride. If not here then definitely the last game vs Hull I think.

It's our last home game. Play the big guns and get a result for the fans. Then let the kids play at Hull.

Gatti33 · May 10, 2015

I'd like to see Di Maria get a full 90mins, now top for is pretty much guaranteed and the pressure is off I would like to see how he does. Good performances in the last two games will do him a world of good for next season (if he stays).

Haha just kidding there. On a serious note though, i see a pretty comfortable win for us.

If Arsenal don't win against Swansea tomorrow then we have maybe a 10% chance for direct CL qualification (Maybe 20% because Arsenal are bunch of bottlers) then we'll play our best team.

I gotta agree with you. Play as close as we can get to our A game against Arsenal and then let the kids play Hull. Heck, if we're doing very well or if we're losing desperately, we can even consider letting the kids come in as subs against Arsenal.

Archie Leach · May 11, 2015

We have three points on City so a draw would be tolerable. We can't afford to fall even with them because they're goal difference is too good. I'm going 2-1 to us again, Giroud and Sanchez. Fellaini for you.

Cooksen · May 11, 2015

Knowing us we will play well this game and win 3-0.

Which will make the last 3 games so frustrating.

I think by last 3, he means the 3 consecutive losses.

Will we get presented with our 4th place trophy at this game?

Will Arsenal form a guard of honour? I imagine their pretty cheesed off at losing out on it this time.

I'm not sure why people think that this game is meaningless.
Its all to play for. I'd like 3rd place and as such we should always try and win.
The worst thing a sports man or team can do is "switch off". We need a winning mentality and should not cultivate a "its okay to lose" attitude.

With this in mind, we need to field our best team.
Personally I think that the Hull game is more difficult (and will be similar to the CP match) than the Arsenal game.

We need at least 1 point from this game, but must attempt to go for all 3.

Flying_Heckfish · May 11, 2015

I'd usually predict a nice 2-1 or 2-0 here but we're just not at the races, while Arsenal need to take good form into the cup final.

Still, LvG has a great record against the big teams this season so it's possible we will snap out of it for this.

Is there any reason why we shouldnt play our best player (De Gea)?

chicha14 · May 11, 2015

Van Gaal will definitely play his strongest available 11, i have no doubt about it. Dead rubber or not, he does not want to lose, especially not at home to Arsenal. i do hope Januzaj and Wilson get some minutes though..

De Gea

Valencia, Smalling, Jones , Shaw

Herrera, Blind, Fellaini

Di Maria Rooney Young.

heart says draw, head says we nick it 2-1.

pseudo_canadian · May 11, 2015

It's nice going into this game knowing that a win isn't a certainty to keep our fourth spot. The players should be more comfortable mentally.

Though I'd still love to see us thrash them, and hope the players are up for it. But Arsenal are playing some great football at the moment so it should be a good game.

ottosec · May 11, 2015

LVG said that he has the chance to experiment with the squad now that we secured CL. Hopefully we will see some young players given a chance these last 2 games.

They won't be bothered at all. With all the remaining 4th place trophies they will have enough steel to duplicate the eiffel tower.

MyOnlySolskjaer · May 11, 2015

Any idea where Van Persie was?

You really think putting out youth is a good idea ? Against Arsenal ?

They'll slaughter us and will play their best 11.

Will Januzaj or Pereira be that much worse than Young or Fellaini? Will Wilson be that much worse than Rooney? I don't think so, considering the way we were performing in the last 4 games.

Like seriously? You want LvG to remove our most dangerous attacker for ages on the basis of him not being good enough for United for some people.

Gimme a break.

Then "would" instead of "will".

I'm such an arse.

The Brown Bull · May 11, 2015

We need to win this.If the attitude is right we should.A bit of payback for the FA Cup would erase some of the bad memories of this season.
2- 1 to the good guys.

Parry Gallister · May 11, 2015

Hope we go into this gunning to go above them. Want to see the ball moved quickly and the players fully committed. By now, we know how to beat l'Arse at home, even with less quality than them, hope to see the same again.

Adisa · May 11, 2015

Last few performances from Blind and Herrera worry me. Would like to see Jones in the middle to roughen them up.

Paul the Wolf · May 11, 2015

Smash them and give them a chance to retain their 4th place

Young is like our best player...he's one of the few players in the squad with character. Basically, the English contingent and De Gea. They form our spine. Without them, we're like a leaf in the wind. Do you think Januzaj would've done anything against Palace?
