Shrewsbury tomorrow, Midtjylland Thursday. Two very winnable games, but they won't be easily won.

Too much Giggs talk around the place. The man has no management experience, so handing him the United job would be a disaster.

I agree.

I personally see no good reason for LVG to still be in the job after that run in december.

But I don't run United and my explanation is what I believe is the case, rather than how I wish it to be.

but even the alleged Jose/Giggs split could lead to the above scenario being the case.

weve gotten it wrong apparently re fabregas, Ramos, Muller etc etc in terms of people tied to other clubs being interested in joining us - there is no reason to suggest Poch or Simeone would join us.

Jose in a gentlemans agreement? Ha Jose is no gentleman

He has probably kidnapped Bobby Charlton and is extorting Woodward into giving him the job or else Bobby gets it, has anyone seen Charlton in the last couple of days?

What sort of team are we expecting tomorrow? Strongest possible? Kids thrown in? Given we've got the defeat to overturn on Thursday, and then Arsenal next in line, you'd think this would be the chance to rest some players, but LVG finds himself in a bad place right now. The kids should be able to take Shrewsbury, and might even have a bit more motivation to prove themselves right now. But does he take the risk?

Same line up as Thursday night to play against Shrewsbury, and again on Sunday, when will De Gea be back??

It won't just crash
It'll be like that y2k thing
The internet will implode on itself
The stock markets will slump
World War 3 will break out
Oil prices will rise
And we'll realize its a funny old game innit

we dont have any players to rest really do we?

there will have to be changes before Sunday either way as it would be 4 games in 10 days for the same small bunch of players, which isnt really ideal considering how laboured we look.

i would assume Fellaini, Adnan,Varela, CBJ and maybe Jones could all figure tomorrow night and/or thursday night, which would help. Will Keane could start up tomorrow night too.

Lads, any change in manager won't be announced until we're out of Europa League and fourth in the league is mathematically gone. With City imploding we can make a late push for four, but we don't look like winning matches so it'll be a difficult push!

Nope, City have already been to Old Trafford earlier in the season, was a dull 0-0, the return game is at the Etihad March 20th, 16:00 kick off, will probably be a part of the Super Sunday that weekend.

We're out Monday, Thursday and Sunday ya? Injuries are gonna hurt us this week

yep. at this stage, i think we are better off getting knocked out thursday, as the injury situation will only get worse.

we dont have the quality to win the Europa league so may as well just end that now, try win as many league games as possible and see where that gets us, and theres an FA cup to be won also.

we simply do not have enough quality players to fight on three fronts, the FA cup final is only 2 games away after tomorrow.

Jesus Christ I can't remember off top of my head the last time we won the FA cup

If we don't win today then Van Gaal should just resign.

Shrewsbury are 21st in League 1 scoring just 37 goals and conceding 51 goals in 31 games.

In the last 6 Home games they lost 4 and won 1 drawing the other game.

If we consider only league games then in the last 6 home games they lost 5 and drew 2 game.

If we can't even beat that is in such a worst form then Van Gaal should be left behind the team bus.

With you there. Bore draw to compound the fixture mess were in.

I know some of ye are joking, but are their people who genuinely think we won't win tonight?

We will win by at least 2 clear goals, I'm going for a 3-1 minimum.

I think we will win but I don't think it will be easy or comfortable. 1-0 or 2-1 at best

Lord TSC

I'd have said the same about the EL game, Homer. Or the Sunderland game. Or a string of other "We'll surely win" games this season. The thing is, whenever we face anyone with a bit of passion or confidence, we struggle. If Shrewsbury come out tonight with any desire, they'll probably overturn us

Irishcrx

I don't think we'll win tonight , I'm not trying to be pessimistic , just honest...

he should be he wont, why would he? he would be missing out on around £10m

Crikey when Homer is the most positive guy amongst us you know there's serious problems at the club.
If we can't win tonight LVG should be walking.
Thursday night could get absolutely toxic if there's an adverse result.

I'll have a charity bet with you, €10. You can name the charity.

United's best result tonight will be a 1 goal win margin.

If we don't have a title challenge he should be walking
If we don't get out of CL group stage he should be walking
If he can't get into top four he should be walking
If he can't get the team to improve he should be walking
If he can't beat Norwich or Sunderland he should be walking
If he can't beat FC Midtjylland he should be walking
If he can't beat Shrewsbury he should be walking
If he can't get top half of the table he should be walking

Basically I think he should be walking.
