If we sign anyone it probably won't affect the result against Liverpool. What are your predictions as to the result?
My head tells me that they have a settled team and squad with a better attack and are likely to win by two or three goals. My heart want to be lover that Utds players put a real shift in and defend properly and we win.

I fear the worst but hope for the best.

I fear it will probably be a routine win for Liverpool. Not much from the first two games has convinced me otherwise. Leaving United with two loses in the three opening games and likely to be 6 points off the top 4.
ETH will be under pressure already, just wait for the headlines. It’s an international break, so the press won’t have much else to write about.
But with Mount now out, he will be forced to change his team. So you never know.
I’m hoping they find a way to turn it on for a big game and finally get some luck.

i think we win or at worst a draw not taking our chances. Can't see a pool win. Watched them both games they played. Need to manage Salah.

It's always going to be a tough game, but it's also one of those games where form and ability won't necessarily be the deciding factors in the result.
We started the season poorly last year and beat Liverpool in our 3rd game of the season. Despite them being a better side, in better form and us having injury issues.
So who knows. All I know is that I'm likely to spend 2 hours on Sunday in a state of tension and anxiety ?.

I don't think it will be a rout. A narrow win, either way. The Mount injury forces a rethink and maybe a more positive formation with Zirkzee coming in.

Salah seems rejuvenated and I think we still need a left back as Dalot is not at his best there. He will be targeted. Big match to put our new players in and will be interesting to see how they fare and how ETH sets up the team. First goal will be so important.

An EtH surprise on the horizon.

Is he going to try and get us to attack and score goals as a surprise. Novel idea let's hope so.
30 Aug 2024 13:24:20
We will play on the counter attack as we always do against the better teams. If they have an off day then it is ours for the taking.
30 Aug 2024 14:13:44
We will win ?♂️.

Out of misguided loyalty I took Salah out of my FF team this week.
He will now score a hat-trick.
Sorry.

I think that was the year before last Shappy, last year was the 2-2 draw where we hadn’t touched the ball for 45 minutes then Bruno scored from about 50 yards.

You're right GDS, I guess for some reason I've blanked last season out of my mind?.

Totally understandable!
