Travelling from Canada, going to Old Trafford for the first time tomorrow! I'm hoping to see Martial Zlatan Mikhi up front. So fucking excited for tomorrow

Have a good day mate. If we lose you're banned for the rest of the season though

Agreed. I won't go to Old Trafford for any other game this season if we lose.

I think we'll catch Arsenal before we go above Spurs.

Our final game of the year!

Last time out....

No points gained on anyone. The entire top 7 won.

Elsewhere...

Chelsea host Stoke

Liverpool host City at Anfield

Arsenal host Palace

Spurs go to Watford

3rd week in a row saying this, but we can technically go to 5th above Spurs, but now with a +11 GD swing needed.

We cannot drop down the table.

I can't imagine Carrick starts this, with West Ham just two days later (Monday). I reckon that he'd rather save him for West Ham, surely. Going to guess either Pogba-Fellaini-Herrera or Pogba-Herrera-Mata? Would be a good time to start Schneiderlin (or even Blind) in that Carrick role, but oh well I guess.

[–]Talezeusz 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (0子コメント)

There is so many choices, i don't think we will se schneiderlin in starting XI ever again in premier league match, Blind is good option, Fellaini can start, even Bailly can play as DM.

I hope that front 3 of mkhi ibra and martial start. Obv everyone saw the class of mkhi when he subbed in but martial did well in his cameo appearance as well. We need those three to be in form as boro's defence will be tough to break down

I would like to see Lingard go out against Boro and Martial out vs West Ham. Some of Boros best individual performances have come from their FBs and having someone who is willing to always work hard and track back would be vital in slowing that down. Plus Martial has a pretty good record against West Ham if my memory isn't failing me.

Also with two games in that many days rotation will be key. If Darmian is at LB for this game I think Lingard will be a better option.

Either way this is an important game because of the chance of two top two teams dropping points. Still holding onto the hope that both City and Liverpool can lose their match even though they are playing each other.

It'll be nice to see Valdes and Fabio again. I hear Valdes is doing pretty well nowadays.

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

Really hope Martial starts. Gets his confidence up and hopefully bangs in a goal or two. Good game to do so as well. If Martial can get into form, especially last season's form, that front 3 is lethal

Middlesbrough caused problems at the airline stadiums (emirates and etihad) so it wont be an easy game for us. As long we don't do something sloppy in the back I think we'll win though.

Ibra scores not a brace, but a hattrick tomorrow! You heard it here first!

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

I think Lingard will start over Martial

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

If Zlatan scores 2 goals he'll go above messi in the most goals in a calender year
