    Brentford to score within the first 5 minutes. Who knows after that

    Frank could manage Brentford for the first half and manage us for the second half.

    Like Chicharito did that time.

    I like it, until now we heard ETH has two games or one game to save his job. Let's turn it up a little, a first half to save his job. If we're not 3-0 before half time, we switch managers.
     
    If he's still here and has the same pool of players to pick from as against Villa, will he go with Evans, Maguire and co again? Either way, he has no idea who his best 11 is because he can't get any combination functioning as a team. Tragic. Hope he's not here to make that decision.
     
    So, to the big surprise of no one, we now only have Dalot as a fullback. What do we do, Licha playing LB? Far from ideal.
    Hopefully Maz recovers soon

    I highly doubt it but if you think it will happen then go and put a bet on it...you will get great odds on it.
     
    The only bald person in the dugout for this game should be RVN - if he decides to shave his head as tribute to ETH’s legacy
     
    Erik is too predictable. We didn't lose the last game when everyone thought we would, so he'll play the exact same team until we lose, and then he'll make changes based on who played the shittest.

    Need to find something else until May, INEOS don't seem to care about results so I won't be either
     
    Another defeat in the PL and the heat will intensify on a manager who has been living on borrowed time for about 12 months now. I have no idea what the bookies are saying but Brentford are licking their lips come to Old Trafford and hand out a whipping against us.
     
    I'm expecting another terrible performance. By the time this comes around We will have gone over a month without scoring a premier league goal. Im too depressed to research it but I'm guessing that has never happened before. How has ETH still got a job?

    How many times are we going to say this with ETH? I truly believe he will stay until new years, for some stupid reason that I and probably plenty other MU fans(and even rival fans) can't understand.

    But anyways, I think this will end 1-0 to us for some odd reason, just a feeling. Even considering bringing in De Ligt or Mazraoui on FPL.

    Brentford will score after 60 seconds anyway. That's a given.

    I've been to OT probably 50 odd times in 25 years. Last time was 9 years ago.
    I've never seen a defeat at OT. I'm very lucky in that sense. I'm taking my two boys to OT for this game and hoping we can get a result on the day.

    Great, guess ETH’s breaking another record.

    You live in Manchester?
     
    This time there's no-one to McTominate them if we're in trouble.

    Smart move to get rid of someone who's a goal threat and approaching their peak years.

    If we hired Thomas Frank, we would be a lot better, looking at what he has done with Brentfords budget. The story is, that everyone at Brentford loves playing for him. Guardiola holds him in high respect saying that Frank could coach any club.

    Guardiola also held Maguire and Fred in high regards. Just sayin.
     
    Licha DeLigt and Cas or Evans as CBs with Dalot as RWB and the someone else as LWB poss amass or even anthony..?

    My mates told me to stop going. I only go once or twice a season but let's just say my track record hasn't been good last 5 or 6 matches ha.
     
    Not looking forward to this. Maguire is a big miss, and unless Shaw makes a miraculous recovery we go into the game with just one fit full back. Allied to our lack of goals I can see us getting turned over here.
     
    First time going to a match at Old Trafford! Excited for that alone, even if I’m not expecting much of a result.

    Could be part of one of those 'guess the year' quizzes. I'm starting to find great comfort in how predictable we've become. There's pretty much 6 phrases or so that will get you through United conversations every season. Every fecking season.

    If touch wood no more injuries before this match. Dalot Right back, Centre backs Evans,DeLigt and left back Martinez?

    Dalot-de Ligt-Lindelöf-Martínez is the best defense we can send out on the pitch IMO.

    (I know Evans has been good, but I'd give Lindelöf a go at LCB)
