    Not sure what channel I'm watching but I've got Andy Cole as a pundit and he's looking a damn sight better these days! Wiki says his nephew gave him a kidney about 5 years ago, has he been doing alright since then as far as we know?
    Super sports or summat.
    Wtf are those goggles Ian Wright is wearing?
     
    Looking at the starting 11 makes me worry about tonight. Where the goals going to come from?
    Ronaldo ……can’t score
    Sancho……maybe our best chance?
    Elanga……nothing to suggest he’s prolific
    Fred…..meh
    Bruno…..best chance behind Sancho

    Put squad is so weak and fragile in front of goal it’s quite worrying.

    We will be played off the pitch tonight because these players have downed tools already.
     
    Brighton has only lost four times in twenty-three matches. Make no mistake about it, a United win is a huge result. This is nowhere near an easy fixture even though the pundits and many supporters think this should a guarantee of three points and a draw is a disaster.
     
    Had we picked up more points against teams in the bottom half a draw tonight might not be so bad with how Brighton play. I'm fearing a draw or loss but we're due a win as well and should start converting the chances.

    If we can overcome Brighton I'd be confident we can make top 4. If not then I don't think we have what it takes.
     
    Wrighty and Cole heavily criticising Maguire..

    Nice to see them pointing it out, and also comparing him to VVD, where they say VVD won't make the elementary mistake Maguire makes.
     
    it is getting it to be like an Enzo Bearzot quote. McFred, McFred, sempre McFred. :lol:
     
    If they play us off the park and win convincingly it would be quite a statement.

    There's no way they should come to Old Trafford and be competitive with that lineup.

    Outside of Bissouma, none of the bigger clubs are looking to buy their players which tells you a lot about the job the manager is doing.

    First time Brighton have played anything like a full team all season, exept for Mwepa injured in midfield. Webster, Dunk, Cucurella could get in the United first XI. Veltman is better than Dalot.
     
    McFred again? Easily drops Pogba the moment Fred was available. WhAt is it about McFred that only United managers see? Please don’t tell me they give balance to the team.

    Not one player would get near our squad. That’s what a good manager can do.

    No idea. But the manager did come and say that rotation was likely and we hardly have any depth there.
     
    Shame about Varane being ill. Not confident after our last few games, but it should be a win.
     
    Is Rangnick blackmailed by Maguire or what? He has balls to even bench Ronaldo sometimes, let alone Pogba and Rashford - but not a non-performing Harry
