    Expecting a loss or an extremely difficult draw. A win would be a very pleasant surprise. It pains to say but the Saints look to be a much better drilled and energetic side than we are.
     
    Maguire with his "starting no mather what" freecard. Rashford should also not be starting imo.
    So to be clear “Its a fecking disgrase. A fecking disgrace. This club is beyond joke.” because Maguire who has been out of form and Rashford are starting a game?

    Maybe a little hyperbolic, don’t you think?
     
    "Games like this we should be winning at home, " says MUTV. And therein lies the problem. We have no right to win any game if we think we only have to turn up to win. I hope that if we are able to have 20 something attempts in this game we win. But a normal Southampton performance wont give us any time on the ball.
     
    There was a time not too long ago when we would expect to hit Southampton by a couple of goals at least. We now go into most games as underdogs or perennial underachievers. It’s depressing how far we’ve fallen.
     
    Every game is a bloody struggle, I expect this to be no different. Hope for a win, probably get a draw.
     
    I'm pretty calm about this game, not really sure why though. I've probably gotten sick or something

    Yeah. We can only hope that something will click and we go in a winning run. There have been signs that Ralf's methods are filtering thro. I hope it shows today. But Southampton are better drilled at Ralf's methods than we are.
     
    With Rashford, Ronaldo and Pogba there's no fecking chance we work as hard as them. It'll be sitting at the back stuff trying to counter with Bruno attempting hollywood passes regularly.
     
    Shaw and Sancho I think have linked up well so far

    He is not going to drop Maguire. Not sure why any of you are so shocked about this

    This has been very good in the last few games.

    Rashford and Shaw also have good chemistry down that left, too. Think it was those two who linked up well for Pogba's goal against Burnley, if I remember correctly.
     
    Just a glance at the bench tells us how far we have fallen. not a single person there who could come on and change a game

    No its not. He’s been abysmal for a very long time now. Its not just form.
     
    Was Rashford any better? Not saying he should, but it was asked and he is an option.
    I think Elanga suffered from the pen miss.. He is for the future. Id have started Lingard to send a message to Rashford. But we won't because we have unbelievably not taken advantage of his form on loan at West Ham. You just know if he was at West Ham he would be burning it up. Such a criminal waste.
     
    I’m not going to lie, that Southampton midfield looks pretty strong and we look defensively weak in there, could be where the match is won and lost.
     
    We desperately need some striking depth.

    The rage over Maguire is predictable, what is also hilarious is the idea Lindelof is much of an improvement. Whoever of those two starts right now we're at a disadvantage.

    Can't pretend to be confident, hopefully we actually take more of our chances today.
     
    Why you would love it, I just don't know. Dalot's playing well and rightfully keeping his place in the team, but AWB will get plenty of game time between now and the end of the season.
    It’s sort of a figure of speech. Doesn’t really mean he loves it. I know this because I say things like this a lot
