    Gray to start for me. He's found the target and may find more now.

    Also need to deal with their most in form player...Ashley Young! His crossing is back to its best so Kiko needs to be on his metal.

    Okaka should start, but I know he won't.

    Foul - Third picture is Falkner Street in Liverpool.

    Close to the University, used to cycle along it most days when I was there. Some of those three story town houses still exist -many great homes around that part of L8.

    Much nicer than the Trafford Borough.

    Mind you that's not the picture that I found most 'alerting'.

    Like he did after Swansea? Or like he did after his goal on Saturday?

    Talk about the logic of small numbers...

    People wanting Okaka in the team are like Everton fans who still think Silva or Simeone are joining them. Never gonna happen.

    Incredible. He literally kicked someone twice. This baffles me.

    However, I'd prefer him to play than Ibrahimovic, so maybe it's done us a favour.

    Cue a lukaku hattrick...

    Quelle surprise

    The EFL doesn't want to
    1/upset Portuguese managers
    2/ keep the title race alive

    Let's see if he can improve on his 1 goal in last 10 games which is actually worse than Andre G at 1 in last 7.

    Incredible!!!!! It is so clear and all on video for everyone to see.

    How anyone can see this panel as anything other than a farce after this will be a miracle.

    Total incompetence and there for all to see. Watch all the pundits come out and support the decision.

    Saying that, not overly fussed as would rather him play to be honest.

    Would prefer Lukaku to play if I'm honest. I think our defence could deal with him more than the pace and movement of Rashford. Ibrahimovic can't be fit to start.

    Fully expecting Lukaku to have our pants down now with his best performance of the season. Sorry.

    Looking forward to this as, let’s be honest, we generally a cut above most of this league for entertainment and United may just lift their game above Liverpool levels for it.

    Also looking forward to catching up later with the balanced BT coverage and their disbelief our manager hasn’t yet walked out of his job after a dozen games.

    I'm the second & likewise.

    Largely to avoid listening to Savage.

    Actually, largely to be at The Vic but missing Savage is a def bonus.

    Stating the obvious - but to win, we'll have to out score them!:D What I mean by that is our defence always gives the opposition chances.

    I guess a trade-off for nice-on-the-eye, attacking flair means that you're not as solid at the back. West Ham could have scored, Newcastle could have scored - so undoubtedly, Utd will have decent chances to score. Unlike the previous two teams, you'd imagine they'll take them. So can we take our chances when we make ours (cue debate about Gray)?

    Therefore, if we are to win I believe it'll be something like 2-1/3-2 etc. But the pessimist in me thinks Utd will be too strong - Maureen will set them up to keep it tight at the back, and so far this season we've struggled when faced with that problem.

    Heart says 2-1, head says 0-2.

    Delighted to be playing a top 4 side on a Tuesday night, it's perfect preparation for our Champions League campaign next season. 2-1 to Watford.

    Away win

    Wet spam and Newcastle both had chances, United won't waste them

    We will make a game of it though, 1-2 or something like that

    Interesting to see Mourinho effectively say "how the hell have Watford got a team like that?!" in his press interview. Pretty sure he knows he's in for a toughy. Being Watford though we got our big win against them last season so expect a narrow defeat with a very dubious decision going against us.
