Regardless of where Man Utd are in the table, I always look forward to games v them. They have been, are and will always be cunts in my eyes. The fact that this is a night game adds flavour to this tie.
Hopefully we haven’t lost anyone from Sat as there could be doubts for Gabriel and Cala. I’m sure the former is fine but not so confident on the latter and even if fit we are managing his mins so not sure he can even play 3 games in a week.
Utd have looked good under Almiron and they haven’t lost a game since late October. Last time he was at the Emirates he tactically outwitted Arteta, I hope Artera has a bee in his bonnet for that this Wed.
Luckily for us, Manioo and Martinez are out suspended but Rashford has shown he is still their most dangerous player when he can be bothered.
Anyway, for context of title race this is a game we must simply win.
Liverpool play Newcastle away at 1930 whereas our game KO 45 mins later. Imagine the scenes at the Emirates if we go into our game knowing Liverpool are behind…
