You know these fuckers will find some way to win. Still hopefully I’m wrong come on Villa.

3-5-2 with Traore, Archer and Buendia on the bench. Why not.

I hope SJM has his shooting boots on. Fancy him to score a couple today.

You'd think our midfield 3 would be able to get on top of McTominay and Fred

Ramsey will get off the mark today. Come on Villa, for once let’s get one over these fuckers.

3-5-2 is a myth. They're playing with one centre forward and we have five defenders, just as we did when it failed against Lukaku.

Because it's bollocks is the answer to "why not".

We're certainly overdue a result from the red filth but a lot depends on the time in the match when they get their penalty.

Impressive  as Ramsey is keeping out £40M man. I would have liked Traore to start but it is a tough call now days.

Decent team and formation. Still can't see us countering Man U's Dean formation effectively and of course the use of VAR in attacking positions.

O ye of little faith.
I'm praying the real Matt Targett turns up today. He really needs to find his form from last season.

I think he's been fine apart from Watford when they were nearly all shite.

Archer on the bench. The stage is set.

And Bogarde. Is that his first time in a matchday senior squad?

Early observation from being amongst the home fans: before Ronaldo rejoined who or what did they sing about? Because right now he's the only one getting a look in.

That United front 4 is pretty terrifying. We’re going to have to be right on it.
