Potter already outclassed ten hag once this season

and the game prior to that he won 4-0 at home against United

more of the same please

really need Potter to come trough and do a tactical masterclass here

I was thinking about that too. Some managers do have better records against certain teams. For example, as we saw last night, Conte's record at Old Trafford is terrible. Potter has already beaten Ten hag once this season and that will hopefully give him some confidence.

and Ten Hag can only play one way 

so it's not like he has to guess what he's going to face 

We will have Silva, Chilwell, Sterling and Auba reasonably fresh (Mount aswell to an extent) while United will (i think) remain unchanged or at the most draft CR7 in for Rashford.

Absolutely must take advantage of that.

CR7 left Old Trafford before the game finished last night. Clearly he is not happy there right now, so I'll be surprised if he gets much playing time in the near future.

You'd think not beating them for 5 years will light a fire up their arse. 

 

And please for heavens sake no more individual cock ups ala Jorginho and Kante vs Arsenal. 

They are just that side for us these days. No matter how good we are, and how sh*t they are, best we manage it a point for the last 5 years.

We've had similar challenges versus most of the usual top 6 rivals in recent years, at least at the Bridge. 

First decent team we're about to play this season.

still got the big ones to play home and away.

True but for the most part Spurs not so much, and City and Pool have been far from Sh*t when we played them at home.

Arsenal fair enough.

I would like to see Sterling, Auba and Pulisic get a start together up top.

That is a combo we haven't really seen yet and Pulisic looks deserving of a start.

 

Pulisic starting is always the right thing for us to do. For us all in the Shed End. Because whatever happens @USATimand @HazardousChoicewill ensure his thread is worth a read.

CR not playing

I hope we don't move in for him

Would like to see the back 4 come back. Trev the DM ahead of Silva and Koulibaly. Mount the attacking midfielder. Front 3 wide players from Pulisic, Hutchinson, Carney and Sterling. Striker from Broja and Auba.

Leave Havertz and Ziyech out of the squad please.

Oh please let's have Jorginho at RWB. He hasn't played there yet, so it must be his turn. How much harm could it do?

Lmao. So true, so true. Hearing I might be traded to Newcastle in January. Hope I get a chance this weekend!

Anthonu]y is a good player. Thought so when I first saw him at the Olympics and I still think so. 

I feel we should try to open them up a bit by giving them the ball. The worst game I think we can play is to hold the ball 80% of the time. 

They should be at most vulnerable on counter.

Spurs' biggest mistake was allowing them the ball.

That's just Conte giving all the space, he done it with us too.

Conte in a nutshell. 

Since we last beat United

- I finished my undergrad

- I finished my MBA

- I had my second child

- I moved 3 times

😞

Maybe it is a problem for them. We have Kepa. 

My point is we need space to attack. What we have done well so far with Potter we have had tons of space to attack when we get the ball. This has rejuvenated our attack.
