Match facts

Manchester United are unbeaten in seven home league games against Leicester, whose only win in their 18 most recent trips to Old Trafford came in January 1998 courtesy of a Tony Cottee winner.

Three of Leicester's six victories away to Manchester United came before the Second World War

Jose Mourinho could suffer three consecutive league defeats for only the second time in his career, having previously done so at Chelsea last year.

Mourinho has lost 12 of his last 23 league games as a manager. His previous 12 league defeats came over a period of 110 games.

Manchester United have not lost two of their opening three home matches in a league season since 1986-87.

They have covered 526.6km, less ground than any other team in the Premier League so far this season.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic has scored in six successive home league appearances, amassing 12 goals.

City go to Swansea

Everton go to Bournemouth

Spurs go to Boro

Arsenal host Chelsea

Liverpool host Hull

We could jump to 3rd with incredibly favourable results.

Could fall as low as 12th.

A week or so ago i'd have said we'd win this comfortably, now i'm nervous. They haven't been playing that well but neither have we.

[–]tocitusMemphis 4ポイント5ポイント  (1子コメント)

I think the team will be:

               De Gea    
   Valencia Bailly Smalling Shaw   
              Fellaini   
         Herrera    Pogba   
      Mata             Rashford   
             Ibrahimovic

I think Smalling and Bailly offer more protection against the pure pace of Vardy and Musa (if he plays) anyway and I think Fellaini can counteract the threat of Okazaki when he loves to drop into the space between the defence and midfield to try to flick a long-ball onto Vardy.

I think Mata will start because of his complete lack of involvement last night and Rashford because you can't really leave him out, especially with Martial playing badly and being concussed. Pogba will play because he has to to get through this initial tough period and Herrera should be alongside him because he brings so much to midfield that we lack otherwise (energy and passion and a genuine will to win).

I think Carrick playing 90 minutes has ruled him out of this one and I don't think Blind will be in that defence (I don't think Mourinho sees him as a midfielder) after another mistake in a second consecutive match that gave away a goal. I also without either Carrick or Blind playing in the centre of that team we will see the same lack of control that we saw in the Feyenoord and Watford matches.

I'm not sure Shaw is fit, if not I hope we use Blind at left full instead of Rojo.

I expect Mata to play too, but I would not be surprised if Carrick started, I know he played 90 mins against Northampton but he's pretty fit and he hasn't been over used this season.

Going to miss the match because my GF wants to go to the museum.

Edit: I mentioned the other night that every match I have missed we have lost. Hopefully this doesn't continue tomorrow.

[–]aBil11Martial 13ポイント14ポイント  (0子コメント)

It would have been nice of you to go with her.

[–]SeasickSykesThe King 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

I'd be going to the museum at 9 when it opens or 3 afterwards, compromise is key!!

Give her an IOU.

[–]matt768Ibrahimovic 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

this is how it starts my friend, first its museum, than yo go to ballet during cup final. Stay strong!

[–]itstimmehcMartial 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Nothing wrong with a good ballet if it's not United in the final.

[–]OTownTrillaFoRilla 2ポイント3ポイント  (1子コメント)

I think theres a chance we'll see Memphis starting on the left. I really hope he was hauled off at Northampton for this reason and not for his play, which was better.

[–]EverybodyLies91 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

I'm not a big fan of his, and he's done nothing to convince me that he can come in and improve us. Maybe he just needs more opportunities?

[–]ScientificShrimpRvN 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

Going to the game tomorrow. Getting up at 5am then travelling 5 hours to watch so if I don't witness a Pogba screamer I'm gonna be very displeased.

[–]undertrip 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

i dont think we will lose, but if we do Mourinho would be in a lot of pressure

[–]cptainvimesDe Gea 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

You better be fucking butchering them like 5-0!

[–]imnoterror 1ポイント2ポイント  (1子コメント)

Is there a reason why we keep getting the games at lunch time?

I really hope Memphis gets more play time, and maybe a goal by him or Pogba. Latter one could help his mentality.

[–]EverybodyLies91 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

We get the biggest viewership, so there is always an effort to broadcast our games. And broadcasted games are often moved around, I'm not sure why we are getting early kick offs instead of late ones but I'm fine with it as long as we are on TV and there are English streams available.

[–]TheFormidableGiantRooney 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

The pogba fellaini rooney triangle is our main problem in the team and needs to be sorted asap

[–]kristianj99De Gea 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Hoping Carrick and Memphis start. I'm guessing it'll be Bailly/Smalling to counter the Vardy/Musa pace.

Please be fit Shaw. I will cry if there's gonna be a Rojo/Mahrez duel

[–]Ole_Gunner_ScholesRooney 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Neil Ashton reports that rooney would be dropped, Mourinho is ready to try Pogba, Mkhitaryan & even Mata in the no. 10 role.

[–]matt768Ibrahimovic 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

We are gonna win. With style.

[–]Dan16l 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

If Herrera doesn't start I'll be very disappointed, but I think Mou will have to drop Rooney for that to happen.. So I guess Herrera won't be starting..

[–]Danda_NakkaMartial & Giggs 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Would prefer rashford and mata on the wings than martial in his current form even without concussion.
