Been getting intrigued by this. All data via wikipedia. So the target is 84,467..beat that against Monaco and we will have the highest ever home attendance for an English club. Which would be nice! At the moment this looks very possible.
Note: as "home" games for United at Maine Road, and arse at Wembley are allowed, I see no problem with counting our Monaco game as home
