Can Man Utd please play like this at the weekend?

At the moment do Man U even have much of a day in this. This is their level right now.
If they have to play Evans and Casemiro as a pair of CB we should tear them apart.

They're a weird bunch. Generally shite but occasionally raise it against the good teams.

4-0.

I don’t usually care what other clubs do, but I have to say that Westham is a club who I just can’t understand. The push to get rid of Moyes is strange. This is a bloke who has got them into Europe, they weren’t in the relegation zone and he actually won them a trophy. Let’s see where they are this time next year. I just hope they send him off with a really big performance.

It’s big ambitions from US owners and the perceived ceiling to where Moyes can take them with his playing style from what I’ve heard.

Could all backfire for sure.

Yeah that’s probably fair, I think the journo who authored the story you linked is a spurs fan is he not? I think there are quite a few spurs fans in journalistic places. The Chelsea thing was ridiculous but it possibly was the novelty of it all. It took a few weeks to answer that b%*&s%*^ question.

And now they’ll be all fired up due to the embarrassing nature of the loss.

Only hope I have is they won’t want City to win it but that’s probably more a fan perspective.

For all his positives I think Moyes has a habit of badly misreading games and tactics sometimes. One minute they’ll be performing really well and next they’re getting ripped apart. Obviously limited by their personnel and think he has done well overall to get them where they are but just not enough to take them any further.

We also nicked their World Class midfielder which didn’t help them this year.

Some rumours starting about Isak. Yes or No?. A no for me cos he seems to be more effective when playing in behind the line and that doesn’t suit how teams play against us.

Pundits, neutrals and even many man Utd fans are expecting them to lose this weekend.

A draw is well within our capabilities. But we need a win and that's the problem. On form for both sides, we win.
We've only had maybe 2 league wins there in close to 20 years. To be on balance we haven't been as good as we are now for the most part. And they were a decent side for much of that time, Moyes era, etc notwithstanding.

Very different circumstances this time around. There are a few games this season that made me think we have arrived. Beating City and not losing to them. Beating Spurs away which was difficult even with our great sides. 2 things left. Winning at both Old Trafford and Anfield.

Being able to win at OT ushered in the Wenger era.

If we can't win there in their sorry state and our skill and form, we may not able to at all on the near future

Will Man Utd go low block or attacking?

My guess is low block. The form they are in and the embarrassed humiliating loss with our current form, I can see that. They might be fearing a home humiliation. For them they want a win but will take a draw.

For us we need a win, no substitute for that..

If low block I think we will unlock them. Eventually.

Surely this is the moment to exact some revenge on united. That back 4 they had last night was hysterical

2 ropey full backs, a 36 year centre half who should be on talksport by now, a fat Brazilian just there for a paycheck and a liability keeper who gets done on his near post every game.

Come on lads do the right thing eh.

He’s something different to what we have, pace but with finishing ability. I’d say he’s probably the most likely candidate based on what we need. I acknowledge the point about not being able to get in behind but I think he seems adaptable.

However as I’ve said previously I seriously doubt we will go big for a striker. We will get rid of Eddie and sign a profile of a young player 20-24 with great potential but not the finished article to provide another option. I will be very shocked if they go big.

I haven’t seen tons of Isaak but I think he’d be great in this team. However, with the development of Havertz this season, not to mention Jesus with a summer to get fit and healthy, I think any marque signing will be in midfield. Jorghinio and Partey when fit are excellent, but imagine having a fitter, younger, faster and more creative option than them. Suddenly our opponents would have to be very careful doubling up on our wide players. I’ve heard people talk of Guimares which I was against at first but he would probably excel in this team.

Maybe just idle rumor mongering but I can see Atletico interested in Jesus.

Isaak was teammates with Ødegaard at Real Sociedad when Ødegaard was there on loan while on Real Madrid's books. This may have some bearing on Isaak coming.

This true?

Football Heritage
FLASHBACK photo of the Day. It’s October 10, 1959. The Press Association reports: “What more could Tottenham Hotspur fans want? And this is the pose that brought wolf whistles from the near-capacity crowd when Hollywood star Jayne Mansfield sat on the edge of the director’s box at halftime. Jayne was at the match to speak on Tottenham’s relay service to local hospitals. She was able to tell them that Spurs beat Wolves 5-1.

Why should Michael Owens' opinion about anything related to Arsenal be relevant. He hates us. Which surprises me. Not Man Utd, not Everton. Maybe its a north/south thing. Maybe because we were the team standing between them and trophies and a title, Man Utd notwithstanding.

Fair bit of Declan Rice plaudits coming from all angles. Moyes puts losing him as the primary reason for West Ham’s problems. I think one thing that has been slightly overlooked by pundits is I think in their eyes it was inevitable that Rice would be great because he was great for West Ham - we all know that’s not how it works, but for me what’s been overlooked is he’s got ridiculously better this year. Rice himself has said that Arteta has opened his eyes to so much detail in football and improved his all round game well beyond where it was. If it is mentioned I see a lot of credit to Rice but not much for Arteta in unlocking this in Rice. People talk about the money Arteta has spent but £650m in 4.5 seasons doesn’t get you where we are from where we were unless you are improving those players. You only have to look at the value of those players now to see how much Arteta improves players

Well done Dortmund. I hope they win it.
