    Norwich are awful, this season they have been dreadful and couldn't score a goal against their grannies, so I predict another tense, close game for us to scrape a point or two by a one goal margin. Maguire starts after breaking two legs and an arm earlier today and Martial has got out of bed and will be on the pitch, dressed in match-day strip - what happens from then on is a mystery - even to him.

    Where does this leave Mata playing exactly?

    Right side of attack?

    Anyway, if we don't win Ole deserves to lose his job to be perfectly honest.

    We also need to win well.

    This is how the BBC envisage that we will line up -

    He seems to like Pereira!

    I'd have Dan James in ahead of him every time personally.

    Even so, you look at that team and the excuses that Ole has a **** squad from top to bottom looks weak. That team is good enough to give all the league bar City and Liverpool a proper game.

    And that's without Pogba, McTominay and James being in it.

    Add some decent players to that squad in this window and get rid of **** like Jones, Shaw etc. and there is really no excuse to be failing to get top four.

    Good goal, good movement - but it counts for nothing unless the Chavs drop points, we can score ten and still be stuck in 5th

    Our enormous wage bill which is by far the largest in the league perfectly illustrates your point, Chief.

    The team has been underperforming all season and that is down to the management staff and tactics deployed. The players need to be kept in top mental state with every match. Sadly, I don't think Ole has that ability to continuously keep them motivated.

    We’ve got Lingard and Pereira.

    Namaste.
