Play exactly how we played mentality wise in all the home games so far under Moyes, we put one past the rs, 3 past spurs and 4 past Leicester. United look completely without legs in midfield and defence and can be overran.

Win this and we'll be sat only 4 points behind Villa (who play the rs the day before). Big incentive to keep momentum going and you never know how high we can finish this season but top half should be the target to push for now.

We can certainly beat these, they are all over the place.

 

[brieverton]

Actually looking forward to this game. It's such a nice contrast to wanting to forget about it before it's even started.

 

[allen]

No reason why we can’t soundly beat them.

They are worse than most of the teams we’ve beaten since Moyes came back. If we can beat Spurs, Brighton and Palace, we can beat United.

I know a fair few Utd fans, and it always amazes me how, even after 12 years of being bang average at best, they still feel like they have a divine right to win games. One of my mates even put £20 on them winning the league, he was that confident (deluded). He's also convinced it will be an easy 3 points for Utd this weekend... It will not.

They do still have good players, even if they are not performing as a team, but I fully expect Moyes to set us up to give them hell for 90 mins. We will have a go at them and they will face a totally different Everton than they faced earlier in the season.

2-0

3-0

Their bench yesterday was full of kids, and it was very late when they made a sub. It made our bench on Saturday look full of experience.
The way to beat them is to have a go at them. Let them come forward and they can get goals, but on yesterday`s display even that seems difficult to them.

 

[jazzy]

A weeks rest, momentum and Moyes tactical masterclass should see us gather another 3 points in our inexorable March up the table.

Honestly I can't imagine any team wants to play us right now.

This game is one where I'm really sad Ndiaye can't play. He would absolutely terrify them.

 

[Eggs]

….i think they’re in a bigger mess than us, signing ordinary players for extraordinary money means they could struggle to shift their waste for a very long time. Already talking about redundancies of backroom staff, they could be in for some hard times.

As for this game, they still carry quality in the top third so we’ll need to defend better than we did at Palace and against Bournemouth but it’s certainly a game we can win given our recent form.

I like to remind them that without SAF, they are basically just the same as Villa.

I'm glad he knocked the rs off their perch of course, but still - they are just Aston villa in red

we put two past the RS who actually play Villa on Wednesday, not Friday.

We won’t get top 10, that’s 7pts ahead of us and those teams in the top half have actual squads that can rotate and keep pushing. We’re on our last legs and that will catch up with us soon. I hope I’m wrong but I reckon anywhere between 11th and 15th is where we’ll end up, and miles from relegation.

I worry about our inferiority complex against these.

The 4-0 loss earlier this season was a huge low point.

I hope Moyes has them up for this as it’s clearly a winnable game.
