Man U v Forest - Match Thread

Well…we’re still in it, but unless we sign Mbappe and Navas from PSG, then I think we will fall short at both ends of the pitch. 




Last Game Overview:



We had our moments didn’t we. A 20-25 minute spell where you thought, if we could just get that goal, which we did, but then all those weird lines came out and they make it offside.

Saying it’s 2023 and this is the quality of VAR is shocking. We can see the birth of the Universe, but we use a ruler and a marker on the telly.



The Good: Fluid, some of our attacking play was brilliant.

The Bad: Defensively we are 1-2 CBs apart from a decent side.




The Ugly: Henderson palming the ball out straight to Wout, the 4 years it took to get down for there. 




Special Mention: Man United are on a terrific run. Rashford in the form of his life, Ten Haag inspiring them out of the doldrums. Cut out those mistakes and weren’t a million miles away from making it interesting.




Overall Record: 



Currently we stand at W33 D24 L50



One more L, but we’re improving. 




Injuries / Signings:





Danilo and Scarpa to both start. Wood is cup-tied (Henderson injured / not allowed to figure).

Angelo to make it 4 Brazilian’s in a starting XI?!?

Awoniyi, Kouyate, Niakhate and Richards remain injured. Possibly MGW. 






Your Opposition Story:




A barge to Old Trafford…full of United fans trying their best not to patronise me!! 






Form: (taken our EPL form) 





Forest Home Form - W3 D3 L0 GF8 GA4





Man U Away Form - W2 D2 L2 GF8 GA9 






Team:





Hennessey



Aurier Worrall Boly Lodi



Freuler Yates Danilo



Johnson Surridge Scarpa






Prediction:




2-1 Garnacho / Scarpa & Surridge

I know you will think I’m mental, but a couple of knocks v Reading (their FA Cup game) and believing it’s all over in the tie / focus on top four with Palace less than 72 hours away…could see them rest a few (possible), giving us a chance to draw / win the away leg (probable)…but not enough to win the tie.
