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: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!

yes, wilson on the wing. genius

West Ham are again without Lucas Paqueta following his red card against Liverpool. His most obvious replacement is expected to be Tomas Soucek.Unfortunately the game is thought to come too soon for Crysencio Summerville to return to with a loose return date of Brighton given to us by club officials. Although even that looks quite ambitious with no one in the club actually able to give a definitive injury update.Youngsters Callum Marshall, Fin Herrick, George Earthy, Ezra Mayers, Airidas Golambeckis and Mo Kante have all travelled with the squad and are expected to form a youthful substitutes bench.It is thought that the manager wishes to have a look at some of these young players ahead of the January window and perhaps at the expense of some of the senior players that are expected to leave in the January transfer window (we will give you an update on this later).

Nope, just a realist.
You're the negative one with supporting Negative managers.

Can't see Nuno getting the players to fight.Just watched the game of our other contenders.
Leeds are fighting and getting their rewards. Burnley are fighting maybe they will their reward too.
Wolves trying but are woeful we don't look any difference.
Sunderland made Liverpool look poor again.Took the game to them and defended stoically.
Show's that Nuno has got in tactics wrong in virtually every game bar 2.
He's confused in what to do now.
Park the bus doesn't work.More youth has looked better but he clearly doesn't trust them. He trust's the so called Genius only to be let down game after game. He likes a KWP as winger, 
This game is far harder than against Liverpool but he'll do the reverse tactics.

Nuno should be showing videos of the other teams fight,drilling it in,attacking and yes having a shot on target,it does help.
Every team is beatable in this league.I want us to give it a try.
 

For me, the bench picked by Nuno against Liverpool said volumes about him as a manager, he picked proven slow shit players that offer nothing (bar Soucek) than take a chance on the likes of Earthy or Marshall. One things certain, we’re not going to get the required points to stay in this league with the likes of Rodriguez, Irving, Fullkrug, Kilman and Igor as subs, it’s ridiculous to even think we get anything with those. It’s cowardly choices.
I’m not Nuno out just yet but would like him to realise that we’ve given away a lot of points by going with his  ideas of our path to 40 points.
On one hand it’s good to see Sullivan and Brady’s chickens not only coming home to roost but fucking thriving, but it’s such a pity they’re proving their uselessness at our Club. 

Man Utd win either way but it’ll be same old us or maybe us with a little hope for the remainder of the season. COYFI 

Nuno's cowardly approach against Liverpool, coupled with results going against us last night has made this a must win game now.

Does anyone see anything other than a Man Utd win?

No chance any of  the youth will play now.Back to Soucek and Irving in midfield

Go for goal and try to Score early and give ourselves something to defend and build on.  We might well get beaten but if we sit back and try and defend deep all game then we WILL get beat. We essentially have no choice

Yes, thanks to Sullivan and previous managers we have a weak squad but this Portugeezer is not helping himself.  If he can’t start sending our lot out to scrap and fight for every ball from the start then they just might as well as not bother.

Freddie Potts will end up doing better than Harry Winks or Skipp, that's for certain.

Nuno will probably have another stroke handing over the team sheet and we’ll end up with the useless sweaty Irving and the hapless cսnt Potts in the centre of the park.

Potter managed to win there not so long ago ffs. Everton under Moyes who never wins there managed it with only 10 men for much of the game. We have a chance. 

Well at least we have pace to bother them! Seriously with such a lack of pace it's been shown we can't counter attack so only option would be to be brave and play higher up and try to keep the ball but can't see it so unless United have an absolute stinker can't  see anything other than a home win. 

 Are Earthy,Kante,Marshall,Landers,Myers and Cummins (all missing from U21's fixture against Bilbao tonight ) . off to Manchester too.?
Hopefully the deadwood have been replaced on the bench by new boys.
Earthy and Marshall to start.
