For the remaining 14 games United should start playing players that C W feels will still be here next season and play a system that would get results in the championship.
Persevere with the younger players Brewster, McBurnie, Bogle, Lowe, Burke, Berge, bring RND back and give Hackford some game time etc. (Ballsup Phil will know more about any up and coming youngsters)
Call me defeatist etc, etc, but we are going down so we should prepare for it now, treat it as an extended pre season.

Not McBurnie!!
 
I'd like to say "Can we deliberately play a weakened team against all Liverpool's rivals" and cost them a Champions League place, like they did to us when they played Fulham in 2007.

But I'm not sure what our weakest of the weak is
 
Just when Fulham have picked up the baton for survival. We just about rubber stamp our pending relegation. Well done lads.
 
Don’t worry lads with Billy starting every week we will be fine. I’ll happily sell both of our young forwards who have proven they can score goals in the championship and just play Billy every week.
 
Completely agree. Brewster and McBurnie start every game up top from now on.

Blood some of the youngsters in midfield.

Get scouting two or three centre midfielders, that’s what we need in the summer and we’ll be geared up for a promotion tilt.

What happens though if both do fck all between now and then? We risk further demoralisation.
 



I haven't written off Brewster - there clearly is a player there (99% of evidence prior to joining). But I'm conservative in estimating the damage this season may have done. I don't see us barebacking next season by the scruff of the pony tail.
 
Blank slate, no pressure, no crowd on their back. It’s ideal.
Im with you in hoping. But 'ideal' is the word. It's hard to relate to a footballer, but most can relate to a profession - 12 months of dog shit performance, constant slating etc can take a while to shift. Often needs a change in scenery.

Exactly what Micky Adams did and look how that turned out for Harry Maguire.

Isn’t he playing that team and system now? If not, what’s he picking the team for? It’s surely not PL survival
 
There's no point in trying to get promoted next season if we don't have a change in ownership or some outside investment. This season has shown what happens when you can't compete on wages and have to make do with 2nd, 3rd, 4th choice transfers.

I don’t disagree. Wage rise we’re paying buttons, but we will have the parachute payments which should give us a lot of leverage in a league within which clubs are in financial disarray.
 
We need a completely brand new “engine room”

Fleck I would keep. Norwood and Lundstram are done for me. Berge will likely be sold. We need a number 10 who can create, dribble and pass, an RCM and a bit of depth.

Got plenty up top at that level

In defence Norrington-Davies comes in an LWB and we don’t need much else.

It’s quite apparent, that unlike Fulham, Brighton, and even the fucking awful West Brom. We don’t have any “game changers” in our team.

as much as i dont rate mcburnie i would play him and brewster up top every game now with mcgoldrick at number 10 and put bogle in lundstrams spot baldock and osborn wing backs
 



Getting destroyed week in week out in the Prem isn't the best career development program for young players in my opinion.
We are getting nowhere with the current lot so let the youngsters have a free reign when they are picked for games. Play them and rest them ...... can’t be any worse than what we are watching now.
