You mean the F.A cup right? C.L is beyond our reach with the squad we have right now unless if we add 2 - 3 players in Jan which I see not happening.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Imran (@Annihilate Now!) look forward to a new life under Ruben Amorim. What system will we be playing? What players will impress? and how will it all go? We also say goodbye to Ruud Van Nistelrooy and review United's 3-0 win at home against Leicester City.

Ibrahimovic and Shaw might start this game, Rojo will probably be in place of the injured Smalling. I think Lukaku needs a break but not sure this is the game to do it.
McTominay to appear early on in the second half instead of Matic if we make the game comfortable in the first - we need the Serbian to be fresh for the coming congested period.DDG
Tuanzebe Lindelof Rojo Shaw
Pogba Matic
Miki Mata Martial
Lukaku
I know it's unlikely but I think Tuanzebe is a seriously good player. Looks very composed every time I've seen him. CB/RB I think he can handle it. At home vs Burnley is a good game to put him in.DDG
Young Lindelof Jones Shaw
Pogba Matic
Mata Lingard Rashford
LukakuMaking one of my infrequent and irregular visits to OT for this game, if anyone fancies meeting up for a beer beforehand.
No moany twats allowed though, I don't get to go very often and I don't want any misery trousers spoiling my afternoon.Someone is in for a dicking. I see Pogba and Lukaku dominating a game soon. Too little, too late in terms of a League challenge but hopefully this leads to a bit more freedom and we can enjoy the football.DDGShould be more than Burnley can handle. Hopeful Jose isn't sticking someone at rightback other than Axel, as he's the best option available in that position, bar Young who probably needs a rest.

WilsonGoing to be a tough game similar to Brighton.
A knockout competition win is never out of reach, especially with a solid defensive track record.Absolutely no pressure (unfortunately). We'll hammer them.
Merry Christmas! For F sake, this place.....De Gea

LukakuHard to get excited by this game. But I do hope we trash them today. Would do wonders for our morale at the very least.
I like that team. No mercy up front but we would be more balanced with Mata in there. Rashford doesn't deserve to play ahead of Lingard on current form. Smalling is most likely injured so I guess Rojo comes in.Another game and one day nearer to death. feck everything.
Mourinho out. Sell all the players. white text.
I'm afraid that's too positive for the match day thread mate.
and we would probably thrash them like we did with Palace at the end of last season!
I KNEW IT. YOU ARE A NEUTRAL!!!!
Personally, I'll take a 1-0 win, even though I feel that this could be a 4 goal job.
Indeed.
That comment would be apt if we were in 1st place.
But for 2nd place, it needs to be more grim. Perhaps suggest replacing our manager with a manager who hasn't won anything and is currently below us in the league; that would be appropriate for a match day thread.

I call it a loser mentality. Giving up the fight before the fight is over.
This is is a good mentality. Never give up until the fight is over. And you can apply this to many things in life.
Generally people who are successful tend to never give up and keep trying, even if they appear to be failing. <<this applies to virtually everything in life.We have to win this game no matter what and stop giving away goals in the last minuteI just want to win today and Shaw to start Mourinho to stop being pigheaded and give Shaw a game.I got a weird feeling with this one. We might struggle. Burnley just came back from a loss and they could turn up too. Remember Heaton at Old Trafford last year? Yeah.
A bit worried.. Might win this 2-1.
I agree, Shaw not playing is the only thing that has stopped us being top of the league.This is Burnley without Tarkowski. If we manage to actually put our chances away this time, we will beat this lot 3/4-0.
Don't they also have one of the best away records in the league? Certainly won't be a push over, but we should have more than enough to beat them.
The thing is there is a clatter of games in a few days so there may be a mentality to leave this game as a write off. They are away to Huddersfield and home to Liverpool in their next two so their selection might reflect where they can get points.
Saying that Man United should be beating Burnley every time at Old TraffordI wonder what Fergie could've done with this squad.....Just realised this is on at 3 p.m. so no way to see the match
Be nice, but unlike Palace, Burnley aren't already on a Beach, and are serious contenders for a European place this season.
I'd settle for a jammy 1-0 win as long as they played the United way.
Why?Just realised this is on at 3 p.m. so no way to see the match
Not on tv - well not the normal Sky/Bt here in the UK..
Not even SAF could win with this squad, ffs, get with the program.
The internet is an amazing place...
Ahh, was thinking you had something interesting to do and the forum needed to know But that's right, and we rarely have 4pm kick off's.Burnley lost 0-3 at home against Spurs.
I know... it's my laptop that doesn't take too kindly to some aspects of the internetDRAW.- Status
