Match Thread Manchester United v Everton, KO 16:00 3rd April 2016

Can see the reasoning for both changes (Besic's Arsenal performance and Mori's slight dip in form) but equally wouldn't have minded them both staying in the side although Mori has done a lot of travel in the last week which might also factor into things.

Mccarthy was just as bad against arsenal

 

[Abraders]

We should have kept the badge lads

After our success I felt it was a bit silly changing it so quickly.. New badge is way better though haha

 

[Azza]

COYB!!

Rather beat them in the SFs of we have to face them.

The league situation is what it is. Keep our powder dry for the cup now.

Draw would be good today, but it's not crucial.

Stop trying to imply that's it's one or other Dave. It's not. Well it certainly shouldn't be anyway.

Didn't think of that. Is a big ask for Mori coming back from South America.

First time we've played our best side on paper this season in my eyes.

We need three points for what?

I'll be delighted to take them, but if say Lukaku is injured here and he's out of the cup match at the end of the month then will it have been worthwhile?

So it's down to the players to get the points then?

 

[Rook]

Is Gerry or Lennon on the right?

It's down to the manager to game manage during the game if we look weak in areas, and not make insane substitutions.

Disagree, not claiming he was great but Besic had a mare.

Like you, not a fan of Cleverley in the middle but can understand the change, might perhaps have gone with all three in a 433 lineup.

Of course the cup is most important but this game is completely irrelevant to what happens at Wembley.

...ahh right. I knew there was a catch.

It will be for you, as you'll live off that excuse for months. Just like you're playing this down now.
