    We must have played these more than any other team in the last few years.
     
    Chance to make ground on Arsenal and Tottenham if results go our way, hopefully Chelsea's momentum will carry them through which would leave us level on points with Spurs and Arsenal going away to Bournemouth will be a really difficult game as they've been quite good at home this season, currently sitting in 10th. Every game from now until the end of the season is a must win but having on form Pogba, Martial, Mkhitaryan and Ibra I fancy our chances against anyone.
     
    The team I hope we pick:


    De Gea

    Valencia Jones Rojo Darmian

    Herrera Carrick Pogba

    Mkhitaryan Martial

    Ibra​
     
    We're missing Bailly but who do they have going to the ACON?

    Kouyate,Ogbonna...who else?

    Andre Ayew, Ghana
    Sofiane Feghouli, Algeria
    Cheikhou Kouyate, Senegal
    Diafra Sakho, Senegal

    Ogbonna is Italian I think

    Looking at the players going Leicester will struggle.... Mahrez, Slimani, Armatey, Schlupp
     
    Pull out the stopper, let's have a whopper...but get them to the match on time.

    May want to check but I don't think Feghouli was selected.

    Can see 10 of those playing, but not necessarily Darmian.

    In some ways I could see Fellaini being brought in, due to their aerial power. But hopefully Jones, Ibra, Pogba, Rojo and others mucking in will do
     
    Actually was reading a preview of the Leicester game and Mahrez/Slimani are playing tomorrow - Bailly has had to join up with Ivory Coast earlier not not sure about West Ham guys

    Not surprised about Sakho, he has had a poor attitude all season.

    As for the others, I think they'll miss Kouyate

    That's a bummer.

    There should be a rule for all the players not just certain teams

    Blind hasn't travel. I think it is between Darmian and Smalling (in which case Rojo will start in the left), but Rojo has been better than Smalling this season, and after Smalling cost us a goal yesterday, I wouldn't fancy his chances of starting tomorrow (and break our best partnership of the season).

    How did Smalling cost us the goal exactly? A number of our players switched off given the amount of possession we'd had up to then. Singling him out is churlish

    Already discussed to death on his thread, I have no desire to repeat things,

    5 straight wins, haven't lost in 10 games and still in 6th. The top 6 are incredibly consistent this year which means that any fixture outside the top group HAS to be a win. Anything else and top 4 will become too difficult. Making for a great season though.

    Yup, so frustrating. When we started this run we were 6th, and after 5 consecutive wins we still are. That's why the points dropped against West Ham, Stoke, Burnley etc really sting. And the points dropped against Arsenal had me seething for a week.

    Pogba said he felt tired during the game today so that could be a worry.
    We should be buzzing and could take that momentum for one last push. Give our overplayed stars a fortnight off until Liverpool and trust Rashford etc to take care of Reading and Hull.

    Agreed, The Hammers will be just as tired. Let's just get this game out the way then look at proper rotation for Reading and Hull. Need to be at as full strength as possible. If we can just get some early goals then get the subs on, that would be great.

    De Gea

    Valencia, Jones, Rojo, Blind

    Herrera, Carrick, Pogba

    Mhki, Ibra, Martial

    Subs: Romero, Rashers, Mata, Lingard, Smalling, Fellaini, Young
     
    If Blind is not playing, I expect Smalling to play CB and Rojo to play LB. The extra height will be useful to deal with players like Carroll and Antonio.

    I think this will happen too and is probably the right move, Smalling is our best equipped defender for the Carroll threat.

    Feel sorry for Rojo being back in a position that he's simply not all too good in and would fully expect him back at CB the following game.

    Fellaini dead cert to start this game in my opinion.

    Why?

    Started the last game, was average Carrick is fresh.....

    If he does it and is thinking about Carroll it will be a massive step back from Mourinho

    Play our football and we blow them away and their fricking bubbles
