Ok, we're probably not going to win the league but we have a chance at 4th. At the very least, we are fun to watch again and that's just so very nice.

If we could snag 4th that would be amazing

If we get into Champions League for next year, do we think they keep the Baby-Faced Assassin as full-time manager? I'd be onboard.

OGS could not be more polar opposite of Mourinho if he tried.

This is the after match presser today.

I knows, it's killing me. I just assumed we had NBC sports and planned to watch the game all day.

Ridiculous

It's on basic cable here in the Netherlands.

Newcastle have looked threatening on the break. De Gea has made 2 reasonable saves and Jones had to make a perfect last man tackle to stop a 1v1 that he himself created.

I cracked and bought the plan so I could watch all the Liverpool games. Didn't seem too expensive and I got pissed when I couldn't get one of the games.

Newcastle had another decent chance on a Rondon header. United playing about the same as recent games but their intricate play is missing by fractions of an inch inside the box. That said they haven't really tested the Dubrovka.

And uh...now we're getting outplayed by Newcastle.

Rashford with a free kick that bounces right at Dubrovka's feet. He can't handle it and Lukaku scores with his first touch.

We still don't look great mind you.

Still look better than any outing under Jose this year

#2 comes on a counter with Newcastle pressing for an equalizer. Alexis with a nice pass to a wide open Rashford who beats Dubravka 1v1.

Truth. Worst game of the 4 under Ole but they are still attacking and look miles better than a month ago.

If this holds we are 3 back of Arsenal and 6 back of Chelsea who drew at home against Southampton.

Our next 5 are @Tot, BHA, Burnley, @Lei, @FFC.

In that same span, Chelsea and Arsenal play each other and both play City away.

I don't think Woodward really wants to keep OGS full time. But ending in 4th will make it tough not to.

After Reading in the FA Cup on Saturday, we head to London to face Spurs in the league. First real test of exactly how far this club has turned things around.

But won't that just make it harder for you guys to catch City?

That and a deep run in the CL would make it extremely difficult not to keep him on. That said, if he was signed permanently, I could see it going the way of Di Matteo at Chelsea. Get a permanent contract after succeeding beyond all expectations and then getting axed a few months into his contract.

One other point about the schedule. We only have 2 remaining away games against the other teams in the top 6. Tottenham next week and Arsenal in March. We may not make top 4 but we have about as favorable of a schedule as you could hope for to make a run at it.

Is this the beginning of a series of bad results for you, my poor scouse friend

In previous years, you'd probably be right. Our defense only conceding 10 goals (including the two today) gives me hope that we'll shake it off and continue to play at a high level to finish the year. I also take comfort knowing every victory from here on out will be a personal affront to you.

2-0 at HT over Reading. Stats don't look great but it's a full on B team so we'll cut them some slack I suppose.

Well we won but it wasn't pretty. Big game next weekend.

Away to Arsenal in the 4th round of the FA Cup.

Rooting for y'all tomorrow. Don't suck.

All we have to do is keep a clean sheet for the first 12 seconds to suck less than we did last year. It's not going to be hard.

Lineups are in. OGS has pretty clearly settled in on his front 6.

DDG; Young, lindelof, Jones, Shaw; Matic; Ander Herrera, Pogba; Lingard, Rashford, Martial
