A win at Old Trafford is on the cards.

I have no evidence of this, but it's coming.

I'm left frustrated and pissed off at today's result, but we need to look forward. COYRAWW!

A lot will depend on the toss. If it's a typical, overcast day and the pitch is set up for SJA, there is a lot to be said for putting them in. If not, Lyth, Malan, TKC et al will need to bat a lot better than last season to establish primacy.

 

[Oldun]

Nah

 

[Shoreham_Bhoys]

It's always possible.

Need our guys to step up and start executing plays to the quality we know they can produce.

 

[SUFC Handsworth]

Well we've not won there since 1973 (Bobby Charlton's last ever home game for Man U) so yes long overdue.

On the coach home the.message will have been to pass the ball to the the team wearing red shirt.....

Morning FP,
Hope you're feeling better soon mate.

This looked very tough anyway. Now we have lost our two regular CB’s plus of course Hendo I fear a major scale thrashing. Especially as we don’t remotely look like scoring either.

[DronnieBlade]

Never say never of course.

But we have come back, as a squad, flat as a pancake, lacking pace and intensity in our play so evident in us before lockdown. Most players looking shattered at the moment.

It will of course turn at some point !

2 centre backs and keeper out and our passing/ intensity is woefully lacking so it's a no from me.
This reminds me of the first season in the championship, we were going great guns and then coutes breaks his leg and then the season just fizzled out, I'm hoping its exactly the same because we regrouped in the close season and came back better than ever

 

[silver blade]

a win is the only way the players can make it up to us

 

[HighfieldBlade]

Yes we can win this!
COME ON YOU RED AND WHITE WIZARDS! ⚔

 

[Snowflake]

Damage limitation on Wednesday with concentration on beating a poor Arsenal side on Sunday

 

[Chabuddy G]

God I am not looking forward to that. They're a different proposition with Fernandes.

If Villa and Newcastle can carve us open at will I dread to think what Fernandes, Pogba, Rashford and Martial can do.

We've just blown our easiest two games of the restart.
Most of our fixtures are now "6-pointers" if we are serious about getting a European spot.
A morale boosting, hard fought draw at Man Utd could be just the tonic to put the last two fixtures behind us and restore a bit of belief and confidence.
Another pitiful display and a loss, and I fear we could tailspin into mid table. Also a concern that this might bleed into the cup games.

No, it was George Best's last home game for Man U. Charlton's last was Easter Monday (Kidd for them, Dearden and Eddy for us), Best's last was Boxing Day (Macari for them, TC and Woody for us). Both in 1973 and I was at both games.
