Chances of equal and fair arbitration?

A big, fat zero.

They no longer can be put on a same level as us but they will celebrate as if they won the league if they destroy our league ambitions and as much as useless they are, if we do not play to our best, they can put one over us in an one off game. Destroy these bastards.

United team news by WhoScored:

  • Raphael Varane is more likely to return against Arsenal at the weekend than away to Liverpool.
  • Fred and Scott McTominay both look set to miss out leaving Ralf Rangnick with little choice but to start Nemanja Matic, Paul Pogba and Bruno Fernandes in midfield.
  • Marcus Rashford was benched against Norwich once more and it’s hard to make a case that he starts here after Anthony Elanga’s positive display on Saturday.

I knew I shouldn’t have started the bloody thread!

I think at some point, you have to start someone ahead of Mo. He is clearly out of form and needs a fire lit from under him. It seems obvious (to me anyway) the only reason he continues to start is the club is afraid he gets upset and decides not to sign a new contract. My concern is that by continuing to start him it sends a terrible message to the rest of the squad. I would be livid if I were any of the other front five and not starting over him at the moment. He hardly ever gets taken off during a match…always Mane or someone else. I don’t get it. He needs a rest and to clear his head. This is not Mo bashing because how can you bash someone who has given so much. But you have to call a spade a spade and relegate him to the bench when out of form. That said, maybe the best chance to snap out of it is against abysmal United!

Again, if my opinion bothers you that much put me on ignor.

Just the usual Goldbridge combustion please. United 0 would be lovely too.

He put you on ignore so quickly that you didn’t even have time to add the “e”.

If we had a 6th forward (I guess it could be argued that’s Takumi) it might be different, but apart from Salah being a significant threat even out of sorts (he still drew two defenders. Against City), he is also the fittest forward we have ever had. He could comfortably go through a 60 game season playing every game.

We have gone through the season with 5 forwards for 3 positions playing every 3 days for the most part. Klopp very rarely rotates all 3 players for a line so we would always carry over 1 forward from the previous game. Most of the time that is Salah. Because he’s reliably fit.

I am not certain there is a worse waste of salary around than Rashford…unless it is Pogba

Sensitive much?

I was referring to the absolute shite that is the refereeing team, so actually agreeing with you for once…

Apologies, my mistake

Exact same team imo. I would drop Mo in all honesty just for a rest. I’ll give United benefit of the doubt that they will step it up against us. Would love a smashing. 7-0??

Pretty sure Matip plays the next two.

Utterly battered like a fish in a Blackpool chip shop on Good Friday. They’ll be lucky to escape conceding just the 6.

This clearly corrupt manc cunt is probably going to cost us the title. He will be stood on the touchline for 90+ minutes on Tuesday night.
If you are within shouting distance of this utter fucking disgrace and don’t give him dog’s abuse for the entire game then you should hang your head in shame.
