If Danny Ings keeps banging them in for the under 23's them he'll have to be given a chance for the first team. Neither Sturridge nor Origi have done enough thus far this season.

[Ne Moe Imya]

If Clyne is injured then bring in Alexander-Arnold from the U23s.

 

You may laugh but this lad is the absolute business and he's been in stunning form for the reserves.  Only 17 but he's been on our bench before for the first team and if Clyne can't go I wouldn't mind giving him a run out.

 

Can't embed as it's not youtube but watch this for some of his highlights from this season so far.

[Nelly-Szoboszlai]

I'm confident, but not to the extent of making egg on ones face style proclamations of drubbing etc.

 

I think it'll be a typical Mourinho effort. Stifle, dive, waste time, generally be cunts and then try to nick a goal and shut up shop.

 

But, if not, if they go their up until now usual 4-2-3-1, I think we could have a field day in the spaces between their midfield 2 and back 4. They've conceded a shit loads of attempts on target and a few goals because Pogba and A.N. Other have lacked discipline in tracking back.

 

Firmino up top, doing the dragging out of position stuff and Coutinho, Mane and Lallana/Wijnaldum flooding into the gaps in the box.

 

Easy, this footie lark.

[Pidge]

Very little which I suppose is the point 

 

He did plenty yesterday.

Ha, I used to have that T shirt. In the mid 90's, I got it from HMV I think.

 

I'd love another one.

[Unrighteous]

I hate these cunts.  Hope we do them.

I was at the 23's game last week v Sunderland and Alexander Arnold was brilliant going forward, fast as fuck and scored a cracker, gave their left back a right chasing.

 

Didn't have to do any actual defending tho, so can't comment on his prowess there.

[Jairzinho]

What's he done now?

 

Not a great deal. We need to press the fuck out of United, and Sturridge either can't or won't.

[Pidge]

With the movement we want to use up front a player with his touch is great as he can hold it while the others get around him. I think that's the main reason firmino is usually starting up there, but with our lack of depth out wide he goes to the wing and sturridge is easily our next best there.

[Curly]

2 weeks. 2 fucking weeks. I fucking hate international football.

 

Edit: that is why there is a 2 week gap isn't it?

Isn't this the lad Gerrard bigged up? Haven't heard much about his since then but I don't really keep up to date with the youngsters. I always thought he was a midfielder too.

Not sure about Gerrard in particular but he's definitely seen as one of the bright ones in the youth setup.

 

He has played all over the place, started as a DM I think, then played further forward and on the wing before nailing down the right back spot as his own.  As someone mentioned up the thread, he doesn't get asked to do a lot of defending but he's competent when he is (up against Sunderland's Honeyman last week, meant to be one of the best in the entire U23 league, and shut him down) and he's ace going forward.

 

I really think he'll be one to come through and get 50 games for the first team, maybe a lot more before all is said and done.  He is clearly a class above the reserve league already at 17 (same can be said for Ben Woodburn, and Danny Ings who's been in there this past month as well).

[chris71]

Can't wait for this, hopefully tear straight into them from the off, like the uefa cup game, and have the ground rocking.

[aikido]

United usually had our number at Anfield when LVG was in charge, with Fellaini usually causing us all sorts of problems.

It won't be as easy as people think. United are more than capable of beating us if they click and we're off form.

I'd bite someone's hand off for a 1-0 Milner penno right now.

It will be a cracking game. They will be well up for it so we will have to start quickly, and I think we will. I fully expect plenty of snide stuff from them, and they are more than capable of scoring, from a variety of positions, against our leaky defence.

 

Going the other way if we play anything like we can we can score a couple or more. I would love to dish out a real hammering to them, as it could have wider repercussions than the three points. With that said, I'd settle for any kind of win, as getting the three points is all important.

[Pureblood]

Set pieces are the big concern here.  We know we're better than them in open play, but they could beat us purely with corners.

[cloggypop]

None of our defence are on international duty apparently which is pretty handy for set piece practice.

[Pureblood]

We need it.

[stringvest]

That hair bear sharp elbowed Belgian fop will be in the team.  I still fancy us to win 5-4 though.  

 

Confident.

[joe_fishfish]

I hope they do play Fellaini to be honest. He's fucking shite.

[3 Stacks]

There should be no excuses if we don't win this one. We play the better football, are in better form and are at home. Hopefully Mourinho will set his team up to try to stop us instead of being proactive. 

[Dr Nowt]

Couldn't care less what happens on the pitch so long as Maca decks 30 or 40 thousand people. Even better if one or two of them are United fans.
