Very odd. Vitinho was crap last week and we only took complete charge of the game when he was replaced by JBG.

It’s not an important game so good time to move players around a bit and experiment for next season 🤷‍♂️

This is my biggest problem with VK. He just can’t leave things alone. Why mess with a winning team?

I don’t get why he would drop Taylor? I would expect him to deal with Antony fairly comfortably. I suppose you could say that this is an attacking approach though as Vitinho will get forward so perhaps this is a ploy to take advantage of some of Man Utd’s more passive players (Rashford’s absence may throw a spanner into the works).

What has become clear over recent weeks is that VK has finally realised we can’t have players on the wing who are passengers out of possession. The obvious choice would be to play Foster in the 10 role but I think he’s lost trust in Odobert as a wide player. This is also why we don’t see Benson.

VK has already tried Fofana and Foster in the same line up and found out it doesn't work. So why try it again, especially in such a massive game?? If Foster gets stuck out on the wing when we've genuine wingers (Benson?) who can't get a kick it's absolutely criminal.

I see the Tinkerman is at it again, an open game and I fear they will do damage with that, but we have a chance.

Come on Burnley.

Another save from Onana. Foster gets better of Maguire for pace, but saved by Onana. (Quoting Phil Bird).

Foster misses 1on1 but on replay he caught Maguires foot as he drew his shooting foot back. No pen for me.

Been listening to commentary on 5 live in car and now home looked on here. Listening in it sounds like we've been good and had chances, not taken them though, on here it's doom and gloom. Sounds like we should be ahead.

United have had a few chances themselves. On the whole, it's been relatively even.
