    Yep, they're using a new number and promoting it.

    Would be interesting to see how it works in practice.
    Only once should I have used it, when a complete douche behind was taunting a woman for the "sin" of not looking pleased when a guy fell on her celebrating a goal.
    Quite an awkward scenario if you have an asbo person who is clearly a season ticket holder near you. Confront them, and you have it for the rest of the game and season!
     
    It isn't language as such is it. More about racism etc. Which is fair enough.

    You're right - it's not aimed at preventing 'bad language' (i.e. swearing) as such, but more offensive racist/sexist/homophobic language. Or in the case of Swansea, perhaps sheepist? :nono:

    And dickhead behaviour of course.

    I have found it's worst when it's someone just behind you - hard to escape it. Agree - you're better off calling them on it straight away.
     
    DDG
    Valencia - Bailly - Jones - Shaw
    Pogba - Matic
    Mata - Lingard - Sanchez
    Lukaku​

    Most probably the lineup tomorrow.

    2-0.

    I moved season ticket location to get away from this guy. Makes it so much better!

    I'll never forget him screaming "Howard, you Tourette's c''t", with no sign of irony.
     
    Expect this

    --------------------de Gea
    Tony------Smalling-----Bailly------Young
    -----Fellaini-------Matic------Pogba
    Mata---------------------------Sanchez
    -------------------Rom

    Would like to see
    --------------------de Gea
    Tony---------Bailly-----Rojo-------Young
    -----Herrera------Matic------Pogba
    Lingard-------------------------------Martial
    -------------------Rom
     
    Lukaku
    Rashford Lingard Mata
    Pogba Matic

    Although I suspect Jose will pick Sanchez again. Doesn’t even matter who plays in defence, cant wait for replacements in the summer.
     
    (4-2-1-3)

    De Gea

    Bailly
    Lindelof
    Rojo
    Shaw

    Pogba
    Matic (Cpt.)

    Lingard

    Lukaku
    Rashford
    Martial

    HT: 1-1

    FT: 5-1 (Lindelof 18, Rashford 54, Lingard 55 and 61, Pogba 90+ pen.)

    * Shaw, pissed at getting substituted in the 41st minute walks up to Mourinho, takes a swing at him, but misses....
     
    I ll go with this:

    De Gea
    Valencia Bailly Smalling Young
    Matic Pogba
    Mata Lingard Martial
    Lukaku

    This hurts my eyes
     
    I'm hoping for a 3-0 job, one of those scores that flatters us, with goals coming late on.
     
    Being optimistic and saying 3-0.

    Out of interest, have we ever scored 5 under Jose yet? I don't recall us doing so. Even when we play well, we seem to hit a barrier at 4. Looking at our fixtures, it won't be this season when we do it either.
     
    Jesus, what's football again? It feels like so long since we last played.

    I've gone 3-0, as I'm hoping to see us banish the negativity of the past few weeks ready for the run-in.
     
    De Gea
    Valencia Bailly Smalling Young
    Matic McTominay
    Mata Lingard Sanchez
    Lukaku

    Subs: Pereira, Lindelof, Rojo, Pogba, Fellaini, Martial, Rashford

    Rojo for Young if he's injured.
     
    One day something will click and we will put pressure on opponents from the kick off and force the mistakes from them instaed of waiting for them to make a mistake. It may take some more pain and bad performances before we see it, the crowd should slow hand clap the slow play and try and get some reaction.
     
    Confirmed United squad members

    GK: David de Gea, Joel Pereira, Kieran O'Hara

    Def: Antonio Valencia, Matteo Darmian, Chris Smalling, Eric Bailly, Victor Lindelof, Luke Shaw, Ashley Young

    Mid: Nemanja Matic, Scott McTominay, Ander Herrera, Paul Pogba, Michael Carrick

    Fwd: Jesse Lingard, Anthony Martial, Alexis Sanchez, Juan Mata, Romelu Lukaku, Marcus Rashford

    https://www.manchestereveningnews.c...ootball-news/man-utd-team-news-squad-14477063

    Finally they put Jesse at Forwards. Fellaini, Rojo and Jones are not spotted. That midfield options.

    When will our first throw-in be, and who will take it?
     
    ---------------De Gea
    Valencia--Bailly--Smalling--Young
    ------------Pogba--Matic
    -----Lingard--Sanchez--Martial
    ---------------Lukaku
     
    De gea

    Mctominay matic pogba

    Pogba and Sanchez both starting, both feeling refreshed and get back to top form.
     
    I want to see Pogba give a shit and Sanchez to turn it on.
