If we beat Leicester, I agree. If we lose to Leicester we are right in the shit.

Yeah if we don't beat Leicester then we can't take any league games for granted so everything becomes a complete mess where we can't even prioritise the cups.
Win this weekend and we can prioritise the cups and bin off the league to some extent.
Like two drunk tramps brawling over a 10 pence piece
Are you concerned about relegation, or just assuming we will get a hiding at Anfield? Or are you on opioids?
It will be a huge negative if we were to lose to Leicester and would set off a few alarm bells.A couple of positive results before the cup games would be a real bonus and while I don't really expect to go through against Liverpool ,we might be in a better frame of mind going in against them if our league position was healthier and then you never know a minor miracle might happen .
We have to go strong as possible Sunday, strong against Elfsborg - but try and rest 1 or 2.
Win both of those and I would sack off Brentford away to give us the best possible chance in the 2 cup games. Then back to strongest side possible for United at home.
Lose to Leicester and we can’t afford to just bin that Brentford game

With Bissouma still out and Djed now out we can't rest anybody. 12 guys, 13 if you include Reguilon.
I think we will have a few back by thurs tho so perhaps rest Porro and Son, Kulu? If say Soence, Bissouma and Romero are fit
Starting XI will be exactly the same I guess, bar Kinksy.
Only possible rotation is Moore starting and playing RW with one of Kulu or Maddison rested.

Give a couple of the kids a chance. Lankshear, Dorrington, Moore
Lankshear is unready and Dorrington is at Aberdeen.
I agree on Moore, he's shown nothing to indicate he doesn't deserve Gray/Bergvall status.
That'd be great... Cos as we all know; expensive players don't get injured.
We need to WIN
Make it a round 5 and add:
4) The word "Spursy"
5) The phrase "Dr Tottenham"
.........99 times out of 100; the "only Spurs suffer 'x'...." sentiment is bollocks. We don't need our own terminology that afford oppo and the media a bespoke stick to lazily beat us with.
Presumably you said that in the first leg too tho?
Cups > League.
10th v 12th... Who the fuck cares.
Leicester at home at this moment is an easy game no matter what you all think. If we start with Thursday’s team we will destroy. I’ll bet anyone that we win this.
We can rest a couple for Europa next week and Brentford and make sure we have a semblance of freshness against the scousers. League is fucked anyway so Liverpool is where our season dies or turns.
