I’m just looking forward to the next bad injury we get. Hopefully it’s Woodward. Would love him to break his leg.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I prefer the neck tbh
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Harsh, but fair.
Mm our precise well drilled and coached passing game could really suffer on a sub standard pitch, I do worry
I’m now watching two women hosting match of the day and a female commentator just one guy involved yet I think it’s wonderful and true reflection of the diversity in men’s football
Should win tomorrow although by no means a walkover

There is the Robb kiss of death.

I get the "fear" with games like this?
Should win, and probs will but until we score I watch with a knot in my gut? A few changes with a few first choices should be more than enough?
Didn't Watford make a whack of changes?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Completely different issue, but nobody really wants an extra fixture. I completely agree with Pep on the replay situation. I want to see more upsets, I want to see that element of romance remain in the FA Cup. But we're in a situation now where an underdog is drawing at home, and rather than try to win, they want to play for a draw. For purely financial reasons. I don't find a "big pay day" to be overly romantic. I want to see the underdog win. And a replay at the bigger club's ground is very unlikely to bring that. Bookmark this before the Tranmere game tomorrow
This has disaster written all over it....looking forward to it already
Could be a classic FA cup tie, crap pitch in the rain, frenzied hostile home fans, dodgy under pressure prem team, that’s a lot of ingredients.

Mike Dean will be there, keeping a low profile no doubt too

Yep with no VAR
Oh it'll be great if there's some controversy and United don't get a goal... Or Tranmere do
I wouldn't play any of our first teamers who are carrying knocks.
For me
Romero
Dalot
Bailly
Lindelof
Shaw
Pereira
Matic
Lingard
Mata
James
Greenwood
Should be enough to get the job done if Ole wants some experience in there as well
Watfords team is better than that. look what happened to them at Tranmere

They did change their whole XI though to be fair. That should be enough IMO. Tranmere should be pretty knackered as well after Thursday night.

Yeah I think that team's more than strong enough. And against League One opposition, Jesse may find his level and absolutely smash it today
Lingard and Pereira in the same team. Is that legal?

Could be entertaining
I still say that the main problem Lingard and Pereira are having this season is the formation - they’re often played as the 10, where you want your most technical and creative player. No wonder their limitations are being shown up, Lingard in particular.

Maybe with Lingard. Pereira, to be fair to him, is actually pretty good technically. His problem is that he's got the vision of Stevie Wonder and he thinks he's a far better player than he is, hence him constantly taking 6 touches when one would suffice and constantly shooting from distance when there are better options around him. If and when we do get rid of Pereira, I doubt he'll be short of suitors in his own mind

He is pretty sound technically but it’s his first proper season in a PL side, a stuttering side at that, and I think he’d be better in a proper midfield three.
Robb was wrong, a complete walkover. In fact it was a history making walkover.
