Well after the disappointment of the Liverpool surrender-fest, next up it's the challenge of Man Utd away.

Amorim seems to have found a way to get them winning points, but their old challenges prevail, with unadventurous wing backs, a pedesitrian and hti and miss central midfield, and no consistent chance-creation plan.

Nuno has a reasonable record against Man Utd (I think I read somewhere) and despite the Bookies having made them huge favourites for this, this feels more likely to yield points than Liverpool.  

For us, Paqueta is out. Summerville is out.  Rest of the squad is available.  Will Nuno give Luis G another go in the Sumemrville berth with Paqeta out and few attacking options available, or will he match up Man Utd with a back 3, and keep the improving Magassa in the side?  Can Wilson manage another game in such quick succession?

Predicted Line Up:

Areola

Wan Bissaka  Mavropanos   Todibo   Diouf

Magassa Potts

Bowen     Fernandes    Guilherme

Wilson

Subs: Hermansen, Kilman, Igor, KWP, Irving, Rodriguez, Soucek, Fullkrug, Earthy.

Predicted Scoreline:   I reckon we get something from this, although maybe a win proves beyond us?

1-1 (Bowen, Mbuemo).


COYI!

[Massive Attack]

May and Oco2024. Lol

Yes, the last 2 fixtures against the same opposition with 1 of them at tonight's Stadium.

[Keep dreaming]

May and Oco2024. Lol

[ragingbull]

Soucek should be full of running because Moyes hasn't flogged him to death lately.

[Keep dreaming]

Starting Soucek indeed is the wrong call. We need to dominate midfield with Magassa, Potts and Fernandes. 

Had little to no hope but thus virtually guarantees a defeat.  Soucek is not equipped physically to play in the PL just like Irvine and Guido. These managers never learn from the past or present.  

Depressing times

Reminds me of Redknapp thinking Impey was good just because he had experience and ignoring the fact he was utter gash 

Bit harsh that, remember him having some good games for us.

When was that

[Massive Attack]

The same Soucek who scored our 1st and helped us keep a clean sheet at Old Trafford only a few months ago back in May, as well as back in October 24 in another win agaisnt them...

[Keep dreaming]

No left flank? What's up with Guilherme and Summerville?

Sad to see Soucek with another start, this will bake us very slow and vulnerable.

[El Scorchio]

I see they are banging on about set pieces again. Interesting watching Man warm up specifically with them

We still have conceded 10, but is it only 1 since Nuno took over? 2 at most I think. Really shored that up.

[El Scorchio]

A shame that Bilic was so inept, as he is very charismatic character.

Absolutely shit fishing attempt.

Soucek as a forward is his only use now imo



 

Dear god, yes he's only good up front and never in amd around our own box as well..

[Sweep]

Steidten, Sullivan and Lopetegui spent £150m or so on Kilman, Todibo, Guilherme, Summerville and Fulkrug 18 months ago - just one of them deemed good enough or fit enough to start tonight.... 

[Massive Attack]

We can get a result, they really aint all that. 

[Mad Ferret]

A shame that Bilic was so inept, as he is very charismatic character.

[El Scorchio]

Roy Keane looks terrified of Bilic. Acting like a little mouse.

[zico]

With that team i'd go 4132 but that's probably why I'm not managing anymore! Just hope he doesn't stick Fernandes on the left.

The Martin Allen irons cast is a good watch. Trying to work out if he is an intellectual nutter! 

[Sydney_Iron]

Well up early for this one, with yesterday's results we need the 3 points to stay in touch with the clubs above us and away from the dross below.

Just hope the right West Ham team turn up, both clubs seem very inconsistent, so fingers crossed ManU have one of their shockers.

He aint one and cant hold it up or anything but can perhaps cause a nuisance of himself.

Hope you are right ScottD and Magassa, Potts and Fernandes are the midfield

[scott_d]

Would love to see our Potts get one over Fernandes.

(Man Utd's Fernandes, not ours!)

Magassa, Potts and Fernandes are all also in the team?

It would be an odd call but I wonder if Soucek is playing as a bumbling forward / no.10 rather than a midfielder.

Otherwise we've got 4 central midfielders in the team.

Just watched the Martin Allen Iron cast on YouTube a very good watch.

Füllkrug missing, good. 

He's been missing since he got here. Kraut fraud.

[Alfs]

1 youth product in the team, 4 on the bench.  Nice one, Nuno.
