And yet it's been ages since we beat United. And a poor United at that.

Everton 0-3 Manchester United (A. Martial 2, M. Oliver)

I think they're so bad currently Ipswich could go to OT in 10 days and get a draw. They've just done that at Villa with 10 men for over a game. Wolves gave a decent account of themselves at the swamp and already beaten Man. United so they aren't just going to be rolled over at Old Trafford in the run in, will be a tight game and Cunha could decide it with a strike like today as he's as good as anything in their front three.

I think they've also got Leicester away three days after 2nd leg of Europa so might pick up more injuries and while Leicester are poor Van Nistelrooy will at least better prepare them given he was coaching the Man. United players four months ago.

I could actually see them losing most of their away games left. Happened at the back end of last season. They have six homes left and three of them against Arsenal, Man. City and Villa so think they'll struggle to get to 40 points.

I think they’ll be close games, against Ipswich and Wolves and generally, it’ll be hard to pick out of their fixtures and say ‘yeah they’ll win that one’. That said, they’ll pork a couple of unconvincing wins like they did in their game against Fulham a couple of weeks ago. Even tonight against Spurs, while they were poor, they had chances to grab a point, so I still think it’s a stretch for them to have relegation worries like one or two of their fans are having

I've a horrible feeling they're going to be massively bailed out with help from the government on the stadium.

I don't get how they can't be in huge PSR trouble when you look at what they've done the past few years. Absolute mess.

I was listening to an interview recently from i think kieran maguire and apparently because they have sold so many young academy player in the last couple of years that they are actually not too bad in relation to psr. I don't see the government helping out with the new stadium, perhaps a bit with infrastructure around it, but not the stadium.
 
Please do these … please

Last time I was able to get to Goodison was 1980. Was in the Gwladys and Joe Jordan scored in a 0-1 win. He hung off the net and grinned at us. Never knew he had no front teeth until then

They are in PSR trouble, couldn't sign anyone in January even after loaning out Rashford. Signing loads of players under 21 currently so they'll be going down the Chelsea route of endlessly loaning them out before too long.

I also believe if they don't quality for CL in two successive seasons Adidas invoke a 10m penalty clause on the present kit deal.
