The Official Manchester United Thread (Vol 12)

I am fairly hopeful of a good result tonight, our forwards need to start scoring at some point. If we do win tonight then anything is possible,
None of the other teams left in the competition have looked unbeatable, and we have held our own when we have played the top premiership teams under Amorim. It’s the so called lesser teams which have caused us the most problems in the league.
I am going to be bold and go for a 3-1 win

Love this optimism - it's rubbed on to me immediately and I'm now feeling more optimistic for a win tonight.

I thought we played well in the first leg and should have won that quite comfortably-ii think we’ll edge it tonight

[brake fader]

The challenge tonight will be to stay awake while the games on it'll certainly be dire i bet.

Well we did until they scored , then we stopped playing .

They were missing their best player he will make a difffeence if he plays , but they were pretty crap overall and it will be very poor if we don’t beat them .

Don’t watch it then

A bit nervous about tonight, it really is a pretty big game as we all know. Hope to see more of the same from the second half against Arsenal and the game last week and we should be alright.

Heaven is starting, Ugarte on Bench. Garnacho, Hojlund and Zirkzee up front with Bruno in mid with Casemiro. Fingers crossed.

No Ugarte in team according to BBC line up? That bench better be full of talented youngsters I've never heard of else we're pretty thin.


Edit: My bad, Ugarte was off the bottom of my screen and I thought I'd scrolled to the bottom. Still a thin bench.

Actually looking forward to this now, The team picks itself apart from maybe Casemiro for Ugarte or Collyer. Anyway 3-1 united with Casemiro scoring the first.

[57Ford]

Penalty that. Shouldn’t have been allowed to cross it in.

[bstb3]

Was worried about this. They always get things against us - its for sure a pen but they just seem to have this hoodoo against us where we give them things like this.

fk sake

[simon800]

fks sake. Can’t help shooting ourselves in the foot.

[J6542]

Terrible start. Soft arse penalty

[simon800]

Dorgu playing like he’s pissed again. Wake the fk up.

[jgrewal]

Do we ever want to do anything in the simple way?

[57Ford]

Thought their lad got the ball there sadly.

Edit, glad to be wrong.

Come on Reds!

[bstb3]

Were back

[NowWatchThisDrive]

Glad the penalty came to something but Hojlund really ought to be putting that away...
