    On a serious note, having lost two games in a row, maybe you want to mix it up a bit at this point and cut that out?
    We're winning this, because we have to.

    Do we always have to start a match thread with one of the members saying "We will Lose" ? Is it some kind of a tradition?

    Smalling has said that a 3rd consecutive loss would be unacceptable, Herrera saying there are no excuses allowed for this one. Both are absolutely correct and it's crazy that we find ourselves in a must win situation so early on, yet that's the reality...

    I'd be fine starting Rashford over Martial. Otherwise I expect to see us go back to a 4-2-3-1. Only change I could see is maybe Herrera taking Fellaini's spot due to his performances over the past 2 games, and possibly both Rashford and Martial starting with one of them taking the RW spot from Mata.

    There are reports that claim he has travelled with the team. If that's really the case, he may feature after all. If he's not 100%, obviously would much rather they keep him out. Don't need a repeat of the Miki mistake...

    Hopefully Smalling Blind will be enough. It's not like Watford are anything special.

    Watford are a decent side under Mazzarri. I'm concerned about Ighalo and Pereyra.

    And Capoue as well who started the season on fire for the and will be a physical presence that will have to be dealt with.

    They certainly can not be underestimated but with their suspect defense, United should be able to handle them. This team should get it done and get them back on track.

    Herrera and Smalling have done enough to get the start. I suspect the Rooney facade will continue a while longer. I imagine that Mata shouldn't get the start on the right, but we are short a winger so we will see.

    This team struggles against dynamic teams, how many losses in a row for Mou to get the sack? This team won't win anything with Mourinhos outdated tactics, he'll be fighting for 4th place.
