    Their last 3 premier league results would say otherwise, this is a match we need to win and win well with a good performance, no more of this 1 step forward 2 steps back nonsense - time to press on.

    They were quite comfortable against spurs until they went a man down, I would go along with the statement that there an organised side.

    Ah young Rojo, the first footballer to win his way into my heart by spectacularly ejecting a limb from its socket for the team.

    A good comprehensive win tomorrow required - don't expect us to go and spank anyone but a good 2 or 3-0 win should be expected here.
    I think we are still some way short of a team that can go out and spank someone 5-0 - but we should be able to win this game comfortably tomorrow.

    Looking at the MUTV press conference and the show in general, the players look to be really enjoying the training.

    Great to have Rojo back, and of course we all want to see Falcao.

    Feeling very positive about this season. We have a lot of good options, just get back the injured defenders and we should be really flying.

    Reports that Valdes has now left United and headed to Spain to continue his rehabilitation, and won't be signing a contract....

    Kind of happy, could not see where he would fit in unless giving actual game time. And as good as he is De Gea is our man for the future hopefully.

    +1. And, to be fair, Lindegaard has looked competent when he has come into the team.

    RVP is just lacking confidence in my opinion, he isn't passed it, he will come good this season, he scored the goal of the World Cup for goodness sake, he isn't passed it, once he get's back to scoring ways he will come good again, of that I am sure.

    They tweeted about Blind's injury last week and they gave wrong info. LVG gave them a dig about it when asked about Shaw.

    Think he was puting them on the spot about Daley Blinds 6 month injury spell. Harmless fun really.

    Acknowledging he's been crap != saying he's finished.

    I think bow legged players appear to be less vibrant than their 'normal' counterparts, Rivaldo being another example.

    Legend of a man IMO - he left with nothing but praise for the United fans and never a bitter word about the club.. didn't work out at United but I hope he does something great in Spain.

    RVP is just going through a poor patch.

    But IMO he foes need to be dropped. Like see Mata come in and stick Rooney up top.

    Tricky one tomorrow.

    Why do united pay agents for a transfer? are they effectively just a legal representive? Why dosent the player pay them?

    Good point, although it does seem to be the only way to sign top players

    The agents represent the players , so should be paid by the players
