Good result this for us too with Wolves losing! Takes a bit of pressure off
If anything it takes the pressure off Leicester, although they’ve got Arsenal next up. United have to keep winning no matter what happens to the teams around them at the moment. We can only do what we can do and keep winning our own games! Come on Watford

Oh definitely but I just meant from the point of view that they were level pegging us all the way so we’ve got a little breathing space now.

Absolutely. I think this is going to the last day with those bizarre fixtures. I think Arsenal will take something off Leicester next time out, but that potentially brings them right into it if they win. We can only do what we can do and keep winning our own games! Come on Watford

So if we buy Sancho who misses out at the front?
Greenwood, he's in an amazing run but he's still only youngImagine being able to pull Sancho off every 60 mins though (stop it CIE) and replace him with someone equally as potent, or Rash on the left, or Martial
Greenwood essentially becomes the new Ole, we need a different dimension at RW/LW/CF
So do we now think Solksjaer deserves to be known as a good manager? Not a top manager, great manager or a legend, just someone that’s capable of leading us forward? That he’s no longer the old favourite that’s helping steady the ship? LvG and Mourinho both won us trophies, do we need a trophy before we put full faith in him? I, for one, am right behind him and wouldn’t pick anyone else to do the job, I don’t think Pochettinho would have turned things around so quickly from how last season ended. It’s like night and day.

For me at the moment he is a good manager. Came in and understood the issues the club had and instantly worked to clear out the deadwood. Put faith in youth, and identified targets that would improve the team. Bruno was a great buy, and certainly helped knit the team together and get players playing well. He deserves more time and hopefully will see how he can push on in Europe. I’m happy with Ole and the right man for the job.

Harry Kane responds to speculation linking him with a move to Man Utd:

Not surprising, we're about 15th in the form table!
We will finish 5th, unless we beat you last game on the season.
Would you be Happy with fifth? bit of a kick in the nads considering the start, but still a great season over all.We will finish 5th, unless we beat you last game on the season.
Could be even harder next year with Newcastle no doubt being takeover and 300mill to spend? and Everton looking strong etc
Thoughts for tonight chaps? Same lineup or will Ole change it up a little? Don't see why he should as the players have had a fair rest since the last match.
Not going to be an easy game imo and more of a test than we got against Brighton and Bournemouth with Villa fighting for their lives!
I'm going with a 2-0 win but a harder fought one

3-2 .. Greenwood brace and Rashford and Grealish screamer and DDG howler Not going to be an easy game imo and more of a test than we got against Brighton and Bournemouth with Villa fighting for their lives!

If we can win by 3 goals or more that will be the first time any team in the premiership has ever won by a 3 goal margin in 4 consecutive games
