Burnley are going down.

Nah, they'll stay up.

[Igor Tripod Biscan]

Tyler be all like

[Macphisto80]

Aaaaand it's time to switch over...

[Lycan]

Not only are Utd winning. Teams like Burnley are giving them a helping hand with the GD as well FFS!!!

[sms1986]

Why are people so worried about United? They still have to play Man City, Arsenal and Spurs and have multiple injuries including Ibrahimovic.

[jillcwhomever]

Don't think we can rely on anyone

Is right we need to do the business ourselves, five wins.

[Macphisto80]

Why are people so worried about United? They still have to play Man City, Arsenal and Spurs and have multiple injuries including Ibrahimovic.

Because they bring good sides down to their level. It's what Jose does.

[pyroparty]

Teams just dont give a fuck when they have nothing to play for, hopefully Burnley's attitude backfires given they arent miles clear. We'll benefit from this too in the coming weeks (not today), even West Brom didnt really look bothered till 5 mins from the end.

[Lycan]

Is right we need to do the business ourselves, five wins.

Definitely. Do that and either Utd or City will miss out. Not us.

[sms1986]

Because they bring good sides down to their level. It's what Jose does.

I see them losing at least one and drawing at least one, they might get a draw against Arsenal. We're in a good position to finish third.

[killer-heels]

Still think Burnley have a chance here.

[Crosby Nick]

No need to panic. Burnley have been shite for months and United can still grind out the wins.

If they win away at City I'll maybe worry about them (and even that will do us a favour)  but no need to watch this or put yourselves through it.

We win later and we're a step nearer than we were at the start of the day.

[jillcwhomever]

Because they bring good sides down to their level. It's what Jose does.

Doesn't mean he can win every game, they will drop points, but they were not likely to do it today. Win our games is all we can do.

[Sir Psycho Sexy]

Why are people so worried about United? They still have to play Man City, Arsenal and Spurs and have multiple injuries including Ibrahimovic.

I think they'll drop points at Spurs and City, but Arsenal are shit right now. Ibra being out isn't as bad as it may seem. He's their best scorer but their play seems better when he's not on the field

[Upinsmoke]

Not seen one person worried in here,  most just suggesting Burnley are shit.

[stuartheal]

Calm down people. Utd and us win today. It's a game closer to the top four for us. It's entirely in our own hands.

[Carra-ton]

Hope Burnley go down now, Hull and Swansea are much more desperate and better overall.
United are playing the Jose way now. Until he cocks it up in a couple of seasons, they are going to be tough to beat.
Unfortunately for us, they keep on winning.

[Macphisto80]

I see them losing at least one and drawing at least one, they might get a draw against Arsenal. We're in a good position to finish third.

Hope you're right. Would fry my head if we fucked up.

[robertobaggio37]

Burnley are awful, they only bother to show up when we play them. Hoping they'll go down.

[Redman78]

Still think Burnley have a chance here.

As if you have a straight face 

[dangerpuss]

Why do the shit teams just roll over for United?

And don't say because they're shit.

[Igor Tripod Biscan]

Maureen has finally proven his master tictacs.  Conte left his 'best' players on the bench yesterday and battered the Hotspurs, Whore-se did the same last week by having Rashford play and not Zlatan, Rashford turned into the English Neymar, he dropped him and now the red brevilles are toasting Burnley

Its great to see a master at work

Fuckin have that haters!

Hope he points to his badge again at the end of the game, love that dedication and loyalty from a manager

[rushyman]

Huge blow for us zlate getting injured

Faster without him rashford and martial etc wouldve had his goals

I'm hoping they'll miss him in the big games 

[rushyman]

Barton idiocy and shit header 0-2

Were OK otherwise

[jillcwhomever]

Why do the shit teams just roll over for United?

And don't say because they're shit.

Maybe it goes back to the Ferguson years, and they convince themselves they've no chance. Truth is of course if they had a go, they'd have every chance. But it must be a psychological thing for them. They are getting sucked into relegation now, and frankly they need every point they can get now.

[Barneylfc∗]

Rooney having a go at the ref again- is there an unknown rule where he can say what he wants to the refs and get away with it?

It's not unknown. Everyone knows he's allowed to do it

[BER]

Good football team beating a far less good football team. Shocking.

[harleydanger]

Because they bring good sides down to their level. It's what Jose does.

They will miss him more in the big games, especially the one coming up.

[Redman78]

Good football team beating a far less good football team. Shocking.

Their home record is very good, I expected this to be much tougher for utd

[jillcwhomever]

They're home record is very good, I expected this to be much tougher for utd

They're in very poor form at the moment though, United are fortunate to meet them now.

[Zoomers]

Fuck them we just need to do our business and we'll be A okay.

[Butter Keks]

Fuck them we just need to do our business and we'll be A okay.

Yep, all in our own hands.

[kopite17]

as bad as they are, to be 20+ games unbeaten in the league is impressive, albeit half of them are draws

[tommy LFC]

They still have to go to Arsenal, City, Spurs and Southampton. Palace at home will be tough for them too.

[sms1986]

Huge blow for us zlate getting injured

They'll miss him for sure, he's their main source of goals.

[jillcwhomever]

A lot of them are draws and when you consider how much they've spent this season, it isn't really that impressive all in all.

[tommy LFC]

A lot of them are draws and when you consider how much they've spent this season, it isn't really that impressive all in all.

And a lot of those draws were at home. Their home form is woeful. They're 5th, that says it all.

[rushyman]

They'll miss him for sure, he's their main source of goals.

Only because that's how they've played to feed him

If they'd played this way from start of season his goals would've been dispersed about

The one they seriously get saved by is de gea

[xhaxhi]

United will probably beat City as well. Mourinho loves being the underdog and looks like he has instilled this mentality at United. There is no pressure on them to get results in the league. They will feel that they have nothing to lose in their remaining games as no one expects them to get top 4.
