No league win at Old Trafford in 10 years.
No league win over Mourinho ever.
0-3 Ozil hattrick?
I literally hold out no hope for us to get anything out of this game, United away with Maureen in charge of them means nil points. We'll lose 2-0.
Definitely. 0-3 Ozil hattrick.Quote:

Bout time we beat them and him. Come on lads.
3-0 loss for sure
Double for Ibra and one for Pogshit
I don't think Alexis has started the games following the 2 previous international breaks so far this season. Given this is an early kick off I doubt he will be risked, even if he comes through unscathed with Chile.Quote:

He was in the eleven against Swansea but a sub for Southampton. He was in the eleven after the one back in March too. It would've been nice to at least have the option to pick up but its likely he'll be borderline injured by the time he's back and might not even make the subs bench. Alexis has to take responsibility for taking this risk too. Midfield we can absorb losing Santi as we have recently and right back I don't think is massive given how average Utd's wide players are. Alexis is the biggest miss for me, it really affects our movement up top.Quote:

This is especially true with how Mourinho is going to set up shop.
Hoping for the best, fearing the worst.
Bit like a Trump presidency
Have absolutely no confidence that we will get anything from this game, so barring an absolute hammering i don't think i am preparing myself for anything but a small pang of disappointment.
And anything from a draw to a win will be a very welcome surprise.
I don't doubt for a second we have the players avaliable to us to get a positive result, i just don't think we have the guile....Mourinho will expect nothing else but a win.
2-0 Win for United Ibrahimovic and Pogba
Well, that's cheered me right up. Thank you!Quote:

Plus ultimately i don't give Arsenal anything currently by way of finances, and i give them far less of my time than at any time in the last 15-20 years....therefore i don't expect much in return, if we win and give a good performance especially against a team of equal or even greater resources/ability than i'm happy if we lose or fail to win it won't profoundly impact on my mood the way it used to.
If we beat a Mourinho team i'll air punch like the best of them, if we lose i might feel a pang of disappointment and feel negatively about the rest of the season but i'll get on with my day.
This match is EXACTLY the reason I want Wenger gone from the club. A supposed top club shouldnt be feeling like they cant get a result against a team barely functioning, but here we are.. no enthusiasm and confidence in the team. Everyone knows our weaknesses and we will most likely succumb to those weaknesses too. Kind of like a slow moving car crash.
0-4.
United could be missing quite a few players. Fellaini, Shaw and Rooney are all struggling, while it's already confirmed that Bailly, Smalling and Valencia are out. Zlatan suspended too.
Though after what happened last season with the patched up team we faced, our minds will probably still turn to mush regardless of who plays for them.
Jesus, this should be rape. However, it'll be more like a wink followed by a massive slap round the face.Quote:

I dunno, that sounds like their team has just become stronger with that lot out of the starting line-up.Quote:

Bellerin out for a month. Confirmed.
:ilt:
Fellaini tends to always have a good game against us, Rooney even if he's had a stinker of a season manages a goal against us and Bailly is a decent defenderQuote:

Gibbs is ok, he links up the attacks well and has been better at dealing with attacks on the right hand side than Monreal but arguably he isn't a first choice full back.
Bellerin is fantastic but we need a competent understudy for him.
Nope, not convinced.Quote:

Not so sure we'll lose.
Wenger might go for a Monreal-Gabriel-Kos-Mustafi mix at the back, instead of Jenks.
Where is Debuchy?
Weird how he's been completely frozen out.
Ibra is suspended for this game. United appear to have more injury probs than we do. Draw is probably the best we can hope for considering our previous records against both United and Mourhino. Desperately hoping for a win though
The official line is he now has a calf injury he is coming back from.Quote:

Last time Jenks played at OT we lost 8-2...
Jose Mourinho: "I think Mr. Wenger has respect from others. I don’t think I have. My last league title was 18 months ago, not 18 years ago.”
He's crying again.
God I hope we win this.
:pray: I can't bear it if that plonk gets the better of us again. Time to give him a beating.Quote:
