We should all expect a win from this game.

Man Utd have been busying themselves on the beaches of Dubai, photographing with Maradona this week. (Watford tried this tactic before the P/O Final.) Their season is frankly over. Champions League is unobtainable and their PL status guarenteed.

We have a newfound respect from the football world for our style of play and tenacity. We will be afforded greater respect from our opponents for now. If we can get a result against Utd then we will have gone a long way to securing our safety.

I'm afraid I don't.
It's a massive ask for us and I can see Man Utd taking all three points.

I think it will still be tough. Yes Man U don't have a title winning team, however, they are still up there with the top half of teams in this division and have some quality players. Don't forget RVP, Shrek and Mata can cause a lot of damage. Me personally, I think we have a chance, but we shouldn't expect to win. I would take a point.

Would love a win and believe it is possible - probably the best time to be playing them in the last decade. I will, however, go for a 1-1 draw.

If we're offered a draw, I would rip their hand off. We should 'expect' to get beaten - anything else is a massive result. They are much better than we are.

If the Everton game wasn't called off and we'd have put in a decent shift there, which would have served as another 90mins for our new signings to gel, then we'd have been in a much better position to get a draw or, gasp, possible win, but I think the momentum we should have got after WBA has petered out now.

Watford went to Malaga so a tad different. Man Utd might not be able to get the title but you have to remember that Moyes will probably lose his job and not be able to attract truly world class in the summer if they don't qualify for the CL so they're still fighting for that.

I'd love us to get a point or 3 but I think the guys are going to have to put in a mammoth shift on the pitch if they are to succeed and have a lot of Utd players off key for the day.

I really cannot see Moyes being axed - he will be given time even if as expected they fail to qualify for the 'Champions League'.

Man United have had a 'if it can go wrong it will' season. For us its gone from zero optimism at one point to hope. We have to stay realistic though. A win isn't impossible, but this is going to be a very tough game to take three points from.

No way should we expect to win this match. They are not as good as previous years but Rooney, Mata and RVP are as good a forward line as there is. A point would be great,3 amazing and a massive boost.
