It's crazy that a win today puts us 3 points behind Arsenal in 3rd with 6 to play.

And six behind second with a game in hand.

United don't deserve to be that close so I don't expect a win today.

Manutd_4life

Rashford ended City's title hopes, Arsenal's title hopes and fingers crossed that today he ends Tottenham's title hopes.

Lord TSC

Jaysus, know things are bad when no one bothers to post the line up after 10 minutes of it being release....

Manutd_4life

Kick off apparently delayed to 4:15pm.

Anyone know why???

ElChe32

Man U bus stuck in traffic.

J. Marston

We might have to give Leicester a guard of honour at Old Trafford.

Bizarre.

Parking the bus already....

The_Kew_Tour

If you had told me a team beginning with letter "L" was gonna win the league I have hibernated for season.

Rayne Wooney

Apparently our team bus is just probing cautiously around the outside of London looking for an opening

Don't understand why it's Darmian who makes way for Fosu-Mensah. He's been dropped for no reason an awful lot this season and Rojo doesn't really seem suited to the attacking LB role.

Yeah, I think it should be Rojo after his last performance.

Cookie_Dough

Kick off 4:30 now. Is there any kind of limit on time?

100% agree. Strange decision, bizarre even. No Hererra again also, annoying.

Rayne Wooney

Reports suggest Van Gaal wants a retreat to Manchester to devise and alternative route

adox

Team arriving what looks like 40 minutes before kick off after been stuck in traffic on a coach is not ideal preparation for a match.

On the team, Rojo getting selected again is extremely disappointing as is the exclusion of Darmian.

Schneiderlin and Carrick in MF is totally uninspiring.

I agree re team selection. Well at least Louis has a ready made excuse when we have a borefest. Hope we get something but I'm not hopeful. The players heads are probably wrecked arriving late like this.

GSPfan

I'm loving the criticism of the team selection. Normally backfires and the players in question play a blinder. Rojo with the winner so!

I'm expecting a Spurs win. A point or three for us would be a surprise.

Xenophile

Can we be fined for late arrival at the Stadium ?

StringerBell

Delayed till 4.30 now, I expect a battering now if I didn't before. No sort of preparation for a match.

Buzzarely I think interupted preperation could be good for us even though that makes little sense...

Totally agree that midfield does not inspire confidence

What the hell is van Gaal doing to Darmain? As soon as he settles back in van Gaal drops him. Should of played Fosu-Mensah at LB if he wanted to include him.

Kankan14

My theory is the bus driver is a red. So to stop LVG giving a team talk hes arrived as late as possible so the players just go out and do their own thing.

Genius

Actually more i think about it the delay is prob worse for spurs, another half hour stewing in the dressing room thinkiny over the lecister result

Rossi IRL

I'll get it out of the way now

****ing Mike Dean

ParkRunner

Crikey, if we get a draw out of this it will be very undeserved. Once again there's no real desire to get forward as a team and have a few shots

J. Marston

Useless shower of shíte.

20 Times 20 Times

Can we please announce Jose ! Woodward needs to get a spine !

Headshot

I just want LVG to **** off from the club

deaddonkey15

van Gaal out.

Lord TSC

The sad thing is, I actually laughed when the third goal went in. Not even surprised.

He's a disgrace. His substitutions are atrocious. Young as a striker? F##k off Van Gaal.

PhlegmyMoses

If ever you wanted a reason to sack LVG, it's what he has done with that team at half time. ****ing negligence leaving that right wing exposed with Mata out there and a young lad playing right back.

Then he brings on Young to play up front as though it's Rashford's fault that he can't ****ing function in this awful attacking line-up. Just get rid now.

Quandary

only 5 more games to go and this embarrassment will end.

Hopefully.

J. Marston

Van Gaal should be gone but these players are a fúcking disgrace.

First goal goes in and they down tools.

Five of the 11 players are out of position. And that's counting Rojo as a natural left back, so you could even say 6....

adox

On the bright side one step closer to this imposter of a manager being gone.

Stupid decisions again today.

The club should hold their head in shame for letting this continue.

jaykay74

Losing spectacularly is much more beneficial in the long run that a tight unlucky loss.

Absolutely. Woodward and the Board have given him too many chances. He should have been sacked months ago.

Rayne Wooney

What a waste of two years

The philosophy has been an utter disaster

Jose can't come quick enough

edgecutter

Christ, players that were crap last week start today in Carrick and Rojo and guess what they were crap again today, fecking LVG logic.

Young up front and only brings on Depay when the game is lost. Why is still here?

20 Times 20 Times

Love to smash that clip board in his face !!

If he wins the fa cup I can see them keeping him. Disgraceful as it seems but people have vested interests for him to succeed, united's best interests won't come into play I fear

Manutd_4life

Can LVG just **** off already!!!

I really wish someone would rip up his notepad and just give him a big ole boot out of the club. His philosophy is a joke

We won't beat West Ham, let alone the whole cup.

Quandary

How the powers that be have left it get to this state is nothing short of disgraceful. How he is still at the club is simply incredible. No other club in the world would have given him this much time.

He should have been bounced out the door after the Champions League embarrassment.

That won't be an issue, thankfully.

fish fingers

What the hell was he doing at half time, putting young up front. Twas hardly Rashfords fault he wasn't in the game.

Manutd_4life

Just wait until he says in the post match interview about how we were the better team, more dominant and all that ****e.

adox

Waits for the late arriving Bus excuses post match.


Says it all that I was more looking forward to the golf tonight than a Spurs v Utd match.

The club stinks.
