2023/24 Season

[SB]

So negative, we'll smash and grind our way to the title!

Can't wait for Arsenal vs City - the best result is a draw, next a City win.

And a few injuries to key players for both sides

I'm all for that!

My wife surprised me after United match with a ticket to the Atalanta match So happy, apparently some sort of lounge or hospitality tickets too! Not been since 2002 against Ipswich!

Nice.

There is a lounge in the main stand which is mainly used for packages for people travelling from Northern Europe. You might be in that one.

Could be, hope there is still a good atmosphere there. Didn't know my wife had this in her

We need to win all our remaining games. Tough ask.

Nah, think both City and Arenal will drop points at least once apiece (well one of them at the very least has to drop points anyway as they play each other) if not twice.


Think the team we need to match is City. Match their results from here on it and we win the title by a point which would be very nice given the times they have pipped us by a point.

Hopefully we win the next 2 home games. Would be amazing (and not too far fetched) if Arsenal and city draw, then 3 days later city drop points to Villa, and 3 days after that Arsenal drop points to Brighton. And then a day later, we go a few goals up, and break out the renditions of “we’re gonna win the league” at Old trafford…

I’ll sign up to this

[RichC]

First off is winning that Brighton game, that'll put City & Arsenal under it a bit with them having to play each other after us.

The International break came one game too late for me - the team's minds were slower, legs heavier, and Man Utd were uncharacteristically resilient.

We have two weeks of training, rest, and preparation to reset the body, mind and belief, as well as get some injured players back up and running too!

If Jones is fit, who would you take out of the current midfield?

Don't need to take anyone out - just rotate effectively so players stay fresh

For the next game after the break, it may need to be Mac Allister as he's going to be a late return again.

If you mean who would Jones replace from the current line up as the go to starter and then that player becomes a rotation player for the rest of the season, then for me it would be Szobo.



Think for my money that our most balanced and most effective midfield trio at present would be MacAllister (RCM), Jones (LCM) and Endo (DM).


TAA (if being used as a midfielder), Szobo, Gravenberch, Elliot, Clark etc would then be the ones to rotate in on a regular basis.

[Buzzo]

I love that Endo is now viewed as un-droppable

One of the things I noticed on Sunday was that our midfield was not as relentless, and that was because Endo looked FKD. He and Macca had begun to have an almost telepathic understanding on where to be on the pitch.

I’ve thought that as well. Very balanced, they’ll keep the ball and win it back and Mac and Jones will score goals.
