    Hoping this is the game where our forwards get some goals and some confidence and arrogance in their play. Needs to happen soon if we are to challenge or even stay 2nd.
     
    We need to really step up. We’ve looked tired and ineffective though. So actually not sure how this will end up
     
    Oh look, it's the only team that doesn't start their mid-week games at the top of the hour.

    A new signing, straight from Liverpool, who's been crap so far? Come on now, how long have you been following United? He'd have been nailed on to score a hat-trick.
     
    Prove everyone who thinks we're at the beginning of a shite run wrong.

    Please.

    Just feckin' win.

    (Preferably easily - but I'll take anything).

    Mata over Pogba? Interesting.

    Pogba needs a rest badly. He's played in 11 of our last 12 games in all competitions and played for 90mins in 10 of those.
    It's not Mata for Pogba.

    Mctominay for Pogba
    Mata for Martial

    I hope Mata starts tonight and think he could bring something new to the team to help us back to winning ways. Bruno always links well with him and Cavani would benefit also.
    Can't understand why he's getting overlooked so much when all our other attackers are really out of sorts. He's been pretty decent when used this season and will be fresh most importantly.

    Mata isn't even in the squad according to MEN.

    Yeah, what’s up with that? It’s bizzare

    I suspect it's due to there being 6 o clock games before hand. They need to get their wanky match build up and the opinions of long since retired players desperately clinging on to relevance.
    That and sponsors.

    Tony & Marcus need to look at that bench and see Diallo, maybe then it will make both of them think we better lift our performances or he will take our place. Like I said yesterday I am not saying he should be played but just to provide a kick up the arse that's all.

    I worry that we're talking this lad up too much without even seeing him play in a competitive game.

    God forbid the lad has a poor performance on his first-team debut.

    It’ll be like the Jones town massacre in here.

    There must have been a falling out. He's being totally frozen out.

    He's wanted out for a while I think, his dad shopped around that whole summer whilst our deal was on the table. Wouldn't be surprised if he's essentially entered Rojo territory (pre transfer) now with 6months left where he might as well be on holiday.

    Ole's squad is basically first team 11 and select subs he likes and then a graveyard of players he doesn't fancy.
     
    Fred
    Pogba
    VDB
    Bruno

    Rashford
    Greenwood

    I want this
     
    Thus far VDB hasn't shown anything in the PL to suggest I'd trust him in a midfield two with Fred. Depending on the level of opposition maybe, but certainly not against Southampton.
     
    Feeling of inevitability about this one - dropped points and at least one Danny Ings goal.
     
    Be interesting to see Saints lineup. They have loads of injuries and no too deep a squad anyway.
    Think they'll be reliant on Ward Prowse's dead ball Expertise to give them a chance
    3-1 United my guess.

    Hardly. He’s been pretty shit since his move to Liverpool last year.

    I rememeber vividly how angry the Caf was that Liverpool was able to make these kind of hidden gem signings while we were left holding onto our breeches.

    Yeah it'll be a skeleton team. It's a shame in a way because I think playing a fully fit So'ton would be a great way to judge us from the early season toil we made of this game but I expect tonight will be comfortable if a bit boring as can imagine them sitting in without half their team available.
     
    I saw their game against Villa and they played quite well and were unlucky to lose so I expect a tough game tonight

    Just how bad are their injuries? I'm not really aware of who they're missing to be fair.

    Ralph was on and said they had a real problem. JWP had to step in to RB last time.
    They still will play the same way regardless who they have out. He doesn’t care who the oppo is, he plays his style dogmatically
     
    Please, please, please no stupid free kicks around the box and minimal corners conceded. Almost cost us last time with WardProwse and I would be tempted to pit Henderson in.
