Well after the disappointment of the Liverpool surrender-fest, next up it's the challenge of Man Utd away.

Amorim seems to have found a way to get them winning points, but their old challenges prevail, with unadventurous wing backs, a pedesitrian and hti and miss central midfield, and no consistent chance-creation plan.

Nuno has a reasonable record against Man Utd (I think I read somewhere) and despite the Bookies having made them huge favourites for this, this feels more likely to yield points than Liverpool.  

For us, Paqueta is out. Summerville is out.  Rest of the squad is available.  Will Nuno give Luis G another go in the Sumemrville berth with Paqeta out and few attacking options available, or will he match up Man Utd with a back 3, and keep the improving Magassa in the side?  Can Wilson manage another game in such quick succession?

Predicted Line Up:

Areola

Wan Bissaka  Mavropanos   Todibo   Diouf

Magassa Potts

Bowen     Fernandes    Guilherme

Wilson

Subs: Hermansen, Kilman, Igor, KWP, Irving, Rodriguez, Soucek, Fullkrug, Earthy.

Predicted Scoreline:   I reckon we get something from this, although maybe a win proves beyond us?

1-1 (Bowen, Mbuemo).


COYI!

[El Scorchio]

Slav looks like a fucking mob boss on that sofa. 

[onsideman]

Thought Fernandes worked hard and was busy but needs a bit more strength as ge us too easily brushed aside at times. 

 

 

 

He's a strange one. I like him but he's been played out of position the last couple of games and it reduces his impact dramatically... but his ball striking is quite underwhelming. His shot in the first half with time and whilst in space was poor and 2 or 3 crosses had no shape and were very easily cleared

[chevy chase]

Anyone notice after the equaliser went in Wilson ran into the net to grab the ball.  He obviously believed we should have gone for the win.

[Massive Attack]

Fortunes favour the brave! Well deserved well earned important point at Old Trafford. That's the effort I want to see more of. 

Stand out performers were Magassa, Potts, Wan-Bissaka, Todibo for me. 

Well done all.  

[Maverick180180]

If you ever wanted proof that our game plan is to draw our way out the relegation zone, that Kilman for Wilson sub is all you need look at 

you’d of been well happy with 1-1 after 80 mins, but Christ we was gonna win that 

 

Fuck off dick head.

Explain why I’m wrong then

[goose]

Pretty low quality game but i think we deserved a draw through sheer effort.
We look more solid under Nuno but need some pace upfront.

Magassa was fantastic.

Hopefully we can stay in touch with the other teams and get some players in on 1st January.

[twoleftfeet]

I've said umpteen times we're a totally different team away from that god forsaken shit hole of a ground.

We were just a abject tonight as we have been at home.

Man Utd were just shit and we got a lucky set piece goal.

 

 

And there you have it, exactly as I said before the match. Win, lucky. Draw, should have won. Lose, Nuno out.

Time to fuck off Ferret

Potts comes off and we score.

Funny that.

Try harder.

[fraser]

It wasn’t perfect, but in the end a deserved point. Magassa and Wan-Bissaka were superb. 

Biggest irritation is they were on the ropes after we scored and he subbed a forward for a defender. I get it, but I’m not in favour. 

Bowen, even on his off nights, is class. There are two ways to captain. You can be shouty and aggressive, or you can lead by example. He’s the latter, but so was Bobby Moore. 

Last point - that Kante’s a big cսnt isn’t he! If he’s ready on ability, he’s certainly ready physically!

 

 

Agree with the Wilson sub   we were looking the more likely and that just screamed "were settling for the point don't risk it"

I feel like both Liverpool and Man Utd got lucky against us. They didn’t outplay us. Which makes me feel more confident in our future. We are getting there. 

I’m not too displeased that Paq wasn’t playing either. I think we didn’t make silly mistakes because of that. I’d be re-assessing his role in the team after this. Also, without Kilman we really do look better defensively. No one has had the guts to drop him until Nuno. Maybe not being 1st choice will improve his attention span. He has the attributes to be a great defender but the mental lapses.. nah 

Todibo on the other hand is looking more like someone who starts for Juventus! 
always said we as fans tend to dig out the players but the common denominator with our team has been some very poor coaches. 
 

[Ron Eff]

Quite apart from the goal, Magassa really has been excellent 

 

Yep been breaking up play the whole game, I also thought he was decent Sunday. 

 

Yeah great game for him and what a change in Todibo like a different player

 

 

Yeah, I fully wrote Todibo off. Vocally so too. Had him as our worst ever signing I think. He was absolutely shit before in fairness. Huge improvement. 

Mind you, he did nearly assist Fernandes at the death!

[El Scorchio]

Fernandes, Magassa, Potts, Kanye

That is our midfield picks for the rest of the season.

Kilman can sit on the bench, and so can Paqueta.

 

 

 

 

Kanye? Not sure how his teammates might react to his love for Hitler. 

[Sir Alf]

Agree with Scorch on the outstanding players but would add Areola:
AWB, Magassa, Todibo, Bowen, Areola all excellent tonight.  Everyone worked hard but we will continue to struggle goimg forward if we have to start Soucek and Wilson most games. Not that they were rubbish but both just hasnt got the pace needed at PL level although in dairness to Wilson thats not really his game being a target man.  

Thought Fernandes worked hard and was busy but needs a bit more strength as ge us too easily brushed aside at times. 

Still would have preferred Earthy to Irvine. Hopefully we see him soon

[gpike]

Bowen has been on fire

Thought he had a poor game tbh.

 

 

For once I agree with you Bowen tried hard but completely out of form

[only1billybonds]

Credit where its due, I've been hyper critical of us when we have been poor but we were good value for a point tonight, we were more than decent. And as always, well done to the travelling fans.

Yeah I don’t understand why he’s not had a bit more time TBH. He’s getting more and more comfortable each game. Potter would probably still be playing JWP for 90 mins each match and have Potts and Magassa riding the bench. 

[Percy Dalton]

[Monsieur merde de cheval]

Will be great for team confidence.

Let's hope so pal

[Mad Dog]

Mugassa awesome tonight.  Todibo also looking like the player we were promised 18 months ago.  Potts is a good player, but please dont let him take any more corners
