3-1 home win..

DDG

Darmian, Lindelof, Bailly, Shaw

Perreria, Fred, Pogba

Mata, Rashford, Sanchez

with Lukaku, Lingard and Martial on the bench if needed

Shall be watching in Sannat Lions bar in Gozo so 9pm local time. Very very disconcerting to go in the first time and see LFC TV on but established the bar owner is a red so am looking forward to a handsome 4-0 with a Sanchez hatrick and a late bullying cameo of poor Johnny Evans by big Rom.

United 4. Lukaku (2), Goblin, Evans (og) Leicester 2. Vardy, Maguire

We'll win. No doubt.

Not looked forward to a season opener like this for a long time

Now the disappointment of the summer window has passed, I'm actually relatively chirpy about tonight.

Are we likely to win the league? No
Will the football be great? No

But Blind has gone and it's like a cloud has been lifted.
