    I want a back four with a highline - none of this 3-5-2 bollocks. Play Donny and Sancho. Dominate the ball. Sustain attacks by winning the ball back quickly. Don’t have gaps the size of a country between the defensive, midfield and attacking lines. Score from a set piece. Win comfortably.

    I suggest you email the club this information, it could be valuable.
     
    I can save you ninety minutes of your life.

    Man Utd will start quickly without creating much.

    Watford will come into the game and dominate Man Utd for the remainder of the half, probably going into halftime with a one goal lead.

    Solskjaer will not make any changes at halftime but Man Utd will come out the second half playing with some more urgency.

    United will equalise through a defensive mistake around the hour mark.

    United will take the lead in the final ten minutes through a Ronaldo goal from nothing.

    Watford will continue to have some chances but will lack the quality to take them.

    Man Utd win and everything is rosy in the managers eyes.
     
    I was so excited for this season, and I normally hate international breaks because I just want the season to carry on, but I just couldn't care less about this game. Even if we win I know it will be drivel for the majority of the match. I'll never root for United to lose, but I'm not sure I'd care that much if they did, doesn't feel like it will make a large difference to anything either way.
     
    I keep thinking of ways I would like Utd to play, I start typing then I imagine Watford sucker punching. He has to play to the team's strengths so that means all out attack.
     
    Honestly care so little about this. We should win, it would be a travesty not to, but what's the point? We're listing around without any direction just hoping for a top four challenge and maybe getting a nice draw in knock out comps, it's so unlike United.

    Mate, would you like some roast eagle meat to go with this fantasy?

    This is Ole we're talking about here
     
    What's gonna happen, just for a bit of fun

    -We start the game well but create no clear cut chances, with AWB on the ball the most.
    -After 8mins with Watford's first forray into our half and we concede a deflected shot from Tom Cleverly 1-0
    -20mins Carrick has reached Level 356 on Angry Birds
    -24 mins Maguire caught in possession by Josh King who forces a super save out of De Gea
    -25mins- From the resulting corner Craig Cathcart rises above Lindelof to power home a 2nd- 2-0
    -30mins- Greenwood and Donny warm up
    -36mins- Yellow card Shaw
    41mins- AWB beaten by King and his low cross just avoids Dennis at the back post
    44mins- Sancho links up with Bruno and Ronaldo finishes from close range - 2-1 back in it !
    HALF TIME

    47mins- Following a sterling team talk we start well with Ben Foster saving from Bruno and Ronaldo in short succession.
    54mins- Breakaway- King to Dennis and with Shaw nowhere to be seen - Sarr is free at the back post to make it 3-1
    55mins- On comes Greenwood for Fred, as Phelan disappears down the Tunnel.
    59minutes- De Gea makes great double save to deny Dennis and Sissoko after the former charges through our midfield at will
    67mins- Mckenna decides to get off his seat and signs a Phil Neville shirt
    79mins- On comes Lingard for sancho
    81mins- Foster finally beaten by Mason Greenwood with a low drive
    85mins- Mike Phelan appears from the changing rooms with a new pair of shorts
    88th minute- On comes Donny for Bruno
    94th minute- Ronaldooooooooooooo wonder header from the GOAT deep in added time from Lingard's cross 3-3
    FINAL SCORE- 3-3
    Ole high fives all around, great comeback, these lads never know when to give up, we go again next week
     
    This will be the best banker you could get, ever, for a United win. There’s no way we will drop points as we have way better player with motivation. We will win and it will give Ole breathing space (that he doesn’t deserve).

    Wow so fun.
     
    It looks like the players might have to stop playing for Ole to get him sacked.

    If the players hit the ground at 100mph against Watford then we’ll know that they still back Ole. If it’s the same lethargic shite then it will be the clearest sign yet that they are not on the Ole train.

    Hopefully that train is coming to the last stop.
     
    I am not looking forward to this game. I just have a sinking feeling because Ole and the YTS coaches are in still in charge. Utd should win but anything could happen.

    You forgot to include the match going fans applauding Ole for yet another game saving masterclass.
     
    I think we will win

    There’s been no coaching at the club due to international break so easy win

    waiting on the there’s never been coaching replies

    Good point. The less input the staff have the better.
     
    Watford to get a 1-0 win with the camera focusing on Ole looking cluelessly at his iPad screen that he seems so fond of during match days, probably as a way to hide from the embarrassment of taking this club right into the doldrums

    And then beaming like a cheshire cat at the final whistle & again in the post match interview & presser.
     
    We desperately need to win this if we want to stay competitive in the top 4 race (ugh, how far we've fallen), but if we do lose this I genuinely hope its drubbing, I'd take a 4-0 Watford spanking please, just so see how Ole justifies it by claiming we're not Watford's level. End this nightmare already.

    I'm not even sure a 4-0 defeat against Watford would get Ole the sack with these stupid owners & board.
     
    Ranieri will easily outfox Ole. If we're not at the races then this will be a tough game. Our last few meetings with these have been tough if I remember them correctly.
     
    All his favs are fit they start . Huff and puff for 90mins and maybe squeeze a win.
     
    It’s a human sign
    When things go wrong
    Van de Beek and J. Lingard
    Make the bench quite strong

    End to the quandary
    Of your management
    Hope Erik comes calling
    And negativity ends

    Slow, slow start
    Hard done by you
    Joshua King looks sharper, Bailly
    Just passing through

    And it’s no sacrifice
    Just a simple loss
    It’s Solskjaer leaving
    Then it’s a new boss
    But, it's no sacrifice
    No sacrifice
    It's no sacrifice, at all

    Mutual misunderstanding
    At centre-back
    Serendipity builds a person
    Who is just a hack

    We lose direction
    No way to turn
    Keano will damn you
    With a novel burn

    Slow, slow start
    Hard done by you
    Joshua King looks sharper, Bailly
