Yes and am sure City and Liverpool fans would complain about their results as well if they miss out by a narrow margin. As frustrating as yesterday's draw was, not sure why people are overreactin

Fucking shambolic result considering the way the game went. Who would have thought we would have conceded only our 2nd goal in open play against this shitty side. That being said, let's take a st

Yeahh I'm expecting a United win..would put them I think level with City if they did...just hope we can go go go. No faff..no surprises and keep it all going

And they’re the early kickoff tomorrow as well. So if City lose or drop points we will have extra motivation to win I hope. Then loads of pressure on Liverpool on Sunday if we win.

In the context of this weekends other fixtures and with the international break coming up this is a colossal game for us. And I’m very, very glad it’s at the Bridge and not at Burnley where they could spring a surprise on a big club or two every season.

I can 100% see United being abysmal for 80+ minutes, keeping the match 0-0, and then have Bruno or CR7 bail them out with a late winner out of nowhere. 

 

Would rather be playing at Turf Moor, it's been our easiest away game of the season for the past three years. Also would be very out of character for Fernandes to make a key contribution tomorow, he makes Lukaku look like the ultimate big game player.

Edit: Jase sort of beat me to it.

I don't know if that will be motivation or a hindrance, seeing as we're playing after. 

Hope we are focused and do the job against a Burnley side that have been problematic for us in recent seasons.

I would say so. It's also something Tuchel mentioned last week when asked about others' results.

This team hasn't challenged in the league for 4 years. A gap means more psychologically for us than City or Liverpool 

A gap is nice but it's still only 11 games in and nothing is decisive yet. Moreover, we haven't even gone through the November-December period yet, a period of where we have typically gone downhill in past seasons.

Too early to make any declarative statements when it comes to a gap between us and Liverpool & City. But if we were to put 10 points between ourselves and United I think we can safely rule them out as a threat to us. At the start of the season it would’ve sounded insane that we could stop worrying about them so early.

I just can’t picture us going on an extended dreadful run with the squad we have. Even with a handful of important players out injured now we still get on just fine.

At the risk of jinxing it, is anyone really concerned about United now? I guess, if anything, it's better to just pull away from 5th and the rest just so that we don't get pulled into another Top 4 scrap.

But one can't deny that the fixtures of late have also been kind. We play Malmo (twice), Southampton in the cup and Norwich, Newcastle and Burnley - three teams who have won only ONE league game between them this season.

Imagine if we had these injuries earlier this season or later this month/next month with tougher fixtures.
