Does Nuno rest a couple for more winnable games (on paper)? Who knows but taking their recent form into account,a draw would be a decent result tonight but that will still take some doing.

[Leonard Hatred]

WE WILL DEFEAT MANCHESTER UNITED BY TWO GOALS TO ONE. 

NAILED ON I TELL THEE.

PUT YOUR HOUSE ON IT. 

STAND ON ME. 

[Manuel]

I'd have more legs in the middle I'd probably start Magassa ahead of Soucek just for some extra energy. He does break up the play well. Or if it is Pablo out just play Mugassa instead of him. 

Yea, thinking about it I take back my take on Traore starting, I was thinking put Traore wide right and Bowen to replace Pablo more central, but it's more likely to be Magassa or Potts for Pablo and pack the midfield out. The downside to that is no pace in the middle of the park, Fernandes isn't pacey either. Another option is to keep the same side that started against Burnley assuming it is only Pablo that is injured.

Literally zero chance we are resting players while in the bottom 3 with the next league game not being for another 11 days! We need to remember that if we're to stay up we need to win a game or two of the more difficult fixtures. As Nuno has said many times it's one day at a time.

I reckon it will be Pablo who is out and Traore will come in with a bit of re-shuffling. 

[Massive Attack]

Well apparently Lamadrid in the squad for tomorrow.  Seems to imply one of Bowen, Summerville, or even both out.

Looks like Adama will get the start.  Can't think he'd throw this kid...probably Diouf up to left wing and Scarles in at full back before that happens.

Summervilles fragile hammys gone twang again?

[nychammer]

this is one of those bonus games we need to win. If we play like we have been every chance of it. 

[F 129 Row66]

Not realy sure if I've mentioned this but I fucking detest Man Ure, especially their fans.

Basically there are two types. Those who sound like they have come from the set of Coronation Street, and those who come from outside a 50 mile radius of Old Trafford. They are all cunts especially the latter group.

Man Ure moving up the table is as welcome as Netenyahu at a mosque. 

Can I get a bet on a really dodgy reffing decision on a game changing issue, favouring them. Not all the exrtra possession they get from throw ins, corners ect. like Taylor at Chelsea

Bowen and Summerville trained today. Pablo is the rumoured injury concern. Lamadrid is probably just another attacking option for when Wilson is blowing out of his arse after ten minutes or we pick up another injury, I'd like to think Nuno would shore up the midfield without the work rate of Pablo. Potts or Magassa for Wilson I reckon. That midfield against Burnley gets bummed hard against better oppo.

It's not the Man u of old so we have a chance.

[95 North - Let Yourself Go]

Would love to get one over on this mob, especially the Nonce with the dopey Barnet! However, would take a draw…⚒

[Tomshardware]

Be happy with a draw but suspect they might have too much for us especially if we have one or 2 of our better players out.  

[onsideman]

I do expect some changes for tomorrows match

So do I... because the manager has told us that there are knocks that will keep some out of the starting line up 

[Westham67]

[Westham67]

The combination of Fernandes and Soucek compliment one another. A solid central midfield partnership sharing the workload between them well. Soucek doing the donkey work battling for everything whilst Fernandes gets on more with dictating the play. We've missed Souceks battling qualities and experience. 

No coincidence since they've both been paired together last 4 games we've had a significant upturn in results and performances.

True Fernandes being the playmaker  

[BoleynGone]

Massive.
disagree there.  Potts and Fernandes were better.  Having Potrs in allows Fernandes more freedom. Soucek looks a little fatigued. Better to have him in a 3. Pablo git a knock,keep him fir Bournemouth as I feel they will be onnthe up and more threatening. MU lucky against Spurs who went down to 10 men early. A good point or even scrape a 2-0. Last minute Wilson goal again to seel it,after an own goal by Dalot.
Orford and Myers on the bench. 
 

[Westham67]

Nuno cannot say we are resting players for a more winnable game against Bournemouth because that would be an insult and get their tails up

It would get my tail up!!!.. 

If you want to rest players use the cup game! 

 

Both we don't want any injuries to key players for the rest of the season

We wouldn't be resting players for a game which is a little under 2 weeks away. Not a chance

[Westham67]

I am going with claypole on this one Traore will get a start, The Bournemouth match is more winnable so I reckon quite a few will get rested for this match an FA cup
