Depends on the importance placed upon the Europa League.
LVG's wet dream that, one right footer and one left footer and both great passers.
LVG said he'd like to win it, so...
I'm sure he'd like to be fourth in the league as well, and look at how that's turning out.
No update on Smalling? Hearing he's out for quite a while
They said it was a shoulder injury on commentary, any word on how long he'll be out?

Leicester hot shot Jamie Vardy has named Manchester United defender Chris Smalling as his toughest opponent so far this season.
Vardy is the Premier League’s top goalscorer this term with 19 goals – three more than his closest rivals Harry Kane and Romelu Lukaku.
Few defenders have been able to shackle the former non-league centre-forward but Vardy has named the defender who gave him the toughest time.
“On a personal level, Chris Smalling,” he told Betfair. “He’s always tight and always around you to stop you from doing your bit on the ball or getting turned.
“It makes it very difficult for you to bring your team-mates into the game as well.”
Even Smalling could not snuff out Vardy’s threat, with the England striker notching his record-breaking goal against United when he scored in his 11th consecutive Premier League game in November.

Official website posted today that he hopes to play tomorrow, so it surely can't be a serious one.

Also says he's an Arsenal fan. Didn't know that. Drop him.
Any word on his availability today?
West Brom 1:0 Man Utd
He gets little rest and he is a beast again, kind of expected.

Best player on the pitch. Only post here. Right you are.
agree but to be fair both Rondon and WBA are pretty shit.....
We've got to focus on the whingeing first.
But I'm so glad he's back in the line-up. He's been a rock.
Yeah but when you are one man defence...
Did really well against Rondon who isn't shit at all, he's not a silky forward but he's big and powerful and has an engine on him, those type of strikers present their own problems and Smalling did everything to keep him quiet, not his fault he's got no help.
Our only good player today. Still the best in the league. Hope a big club like Leicester or Spurs don't take him from us.
Back to his best again. Always keeps going, it's a shame he plays with a bunch of gutless cnuts.
Deserves a proper partner at CB.
Only positive today.
One of the only positives in the entire season. Him and Martial and De Gea are the only players who have regularly been of Utd standard.

Looked like this time out has done his form some good. The only positive to come out of todays game really as we will need him for the games coming up.
Thought he was a beast today. We'd have probably been beat 3 or 4 nil without him
He was very good up against Rondon today, can't fault his performance at all.
I don't think he was good today.. His tendency to be defending the man and not the space creates unnecessary problems for the defence.
If he is not charging into midfield, he getting dragged wide by the forward. Half the time Rondon was heading to the corner flag, wouldn't it have been better for the shape of the backline for him to just stay in his zone and let people just do their job.
United is the only team where the midfielders spend more time covering the CB area than CBs themselves. We wonder why our CM always look limited.

Liverpool 2:0 Man Utd
Would have been at fault for 2 goals if it wasn't for De Gae
Absolute donkey
He's been dog shit for 3 months now.
Our first choice defender and that says it all how poor our defence looks.
Why does he head the ball so awkwardly?
He's not top level. He's good but his recent form means you'd need to have some serious rose-tinted glasses to rate him more than that.
He is bound to today.. No one to wrestle with, these smaller types just keep dragging him out of position as usual.
Exactly and I've said it all along. He's a good athlete but a rubbish footballer.
Wtf was that piece of defending was when he tried to make a stupid header ? Why not just boot the ball ?
What he was doing trying to head that cross away anyway was fecking idiotic but to just completely miss it?
Shambles.
Shambles.
Lol. Just came in to post that after watching the replay. 
He is supposed to outwit and outsmart attackers, not batter them into submission. People have been praising him for doing all the wrong things and now he's been found out.
He feckin slipped, he didn't do it on purpose ffs.
Disappointing tonight.
He should be rested next match (FA Cup). Whole point of having a squad.
