Looks like we are losing this since Chelsea drew yesterday. Every time it looks like we can close the gap to top 4 we shit our pants. It has been happening since the moyes era iirc except for those two seasons under lvg and mourinho.

So true this. Been the story of every since Fergie leftRelease the Mason!!
hes not ready to statt games yet, much better off the bench. Expect James in the left and mata and pereira behind martialMust win game.Doubt we will blow this away. We have no Rashford, Scott & Pogba but we still have players that can hurt them and finish the job at Old Trafford. James looks exhausted recently, so I'll put him on the bench.

MartialAbsolute must win home game to close the gap to 3pts to 4th. If we can’t win this game, then we simply do not deserve to be anywhere near 4th place.Injuries or not, if we can't beat a shithouse Burnley team at home then we may as well throw in the towel.Hope to see :

AWB--Bailly--Harry--Williams

------Greenwood--Martial----Don’t see Greenwood and Martial both starting. I think Greenwood will come off the bench, as there is a decent chance Burnley’s defensive organisation could see us drawing 0-0 at half time.Would like to see Greenwood through the middle if he either does start or come off the bench. Doesn't look too effective in wide areas, and he's much more of a centre forward in his movement and overall play than Martial. I'd rather Martial play the Rashford role from the left and run at defenders.I'd love to give AWB, Maguire, Fred & James a rest, but given our horrific depth I don't think it's possible to rest all 4.

Rashford, Pogba, McTominay, Lindelof, Rojo & Tuanzebe are out. Bailly has just come back from 6 months out so is probably unavailable to start. Dalot probably isn't ready to start either.Last edited:This has to be a must win game, Chelsea dropped points yet again and we really do need to take advantage of those slip ups.
What’s with Axel? Is he our new sick note or somethingToday is my first ever Old Trafford visit, lets smash them!
He was a bit of a sick note at Villa, his injury issues have been well documented for a while now to be honest.
Enjoy the game!
It’s at home. They’re missing Barnes the dirty bastard. Jones should be ok
You’ll be a lucky charm. We’ll winIf we win this and beat Wolves and Chelsea lose away at Leicester, we'll go into the game at Stamford bridge level on points.
That being said. I'm going for 0-1 Burnley tonight.No Rashford Having him and McT & I'd be confident.They're going to kick feck out of us again and get away with it. Add another injury or two to our list and forget top 4.De Gea

Hope you have a great day. Enjoy.Swear we always draw to these lot at home.
Feeling confident for tonight though. Reckon the lack of depth/Liverpool result will be a motivating factor.Once again an opportunity to close the gap a little towards Chelsea, which just makes me extra nervous. Especially since we don't have Rashford to bail us out.
Will be extremely disapointed if we don't see Greenwood in the starting line-up. Hopefully we will also start Mata, as he has been in good form and can be quite effective against the more defensive sides.

MartialSince few fixtures have been going our way, I would not put it past us to co*ck this up. Hopefully, the team can rally put on a proper performance in front of home town. Let us take a chance for once.It's pretty much a guarantee we will throw points away now that all our closest rivals dropped points too.
We haven't won against Burnley at home in 5 years apparently.. surely that's time to changeIt's pretty much a guarantee we will throw points away now that all our closest rivals dropped points too.

Not this time. Tonight we bring home the bacon.
MmmmI really want us to batter them.
Let's hope so, i'd like to say I have faith in the lads to come through.. but....Not this time. Tonight we bring home the bacon.

Pretty much picks itself at this point.
Would be suicide against Woods and Barnes. He'd probably tear his acl trying a bicycle kick clearance anyway.We have a lot of draws against Burnley. We should bounce back after the last loss though.
Gone for this too, except Shaw at LB (though if I was manager (which would be a disaster), I'd pick Williams).
More in hope than anything that Perreira is dropped.https://www.manchestereveningnews.c...otball-news/man-utd-squad-vs-burnley-17612514
Effing great, another new and untested CB partnership.
Always a new injury looming when someone is back.
But hey, at least Gomes is in the squad
Bailly will be guaranteed entertainment if he plays, like Jones.....unfortunately, probably for the wrong reasons. I still say Jones plays. I would possibly go for Bailly, but he could be very rusty.- Status
