Big Dan is going to introduce himself to the orange one. In the common look language of crunch!!!

We're not getting out of our half unless the WBs have a cracker. If they sit deep it's effectively 8 defending and the two strikers up top.

Counter attack or ball over the top please

Ronaldo has had it easy in his career....until today 

[lgfualol]

Whenever I express my joy at a Leicester team we end up losing, so...

 

Awful selection.

[RowlattsFox]

Odds on Evans not making half time? 

 

I think the line up as the making of something good but it relies on players playing well.

Its like some people think we are playing man u from the 90s or something... they are really not the force they once were. People used to say they were the biggest club in the world,  but are they even the biggest club in Manchester?  Soon they won't be the biggest United! 😄 

[SixtiesFox]

Evans back, Kels and Vards upfront, Ricardo and Castagne on the flanks, pace to burn off the bench and no Vestergaard, Bertrand or Perez. Let's give Brendan some credit. Now he needs to give them licence to have a real go at this bunch of overpaid and overhyped prima donnas!

[Dahnsouff]

If Youri is on it today, he could have field day with no McTominay or Fred.

[FoxyLeon]

So Man United have shown huge vulnerabilities to the counter attack all season, and we refuse to play either of Barnes/Lookman?

 

I really hope the Saudis are fooled by Brendan. 

[An Sionnach]

Watch out for set pieces with Maguire, Matic and Ronaldo in the air. Bruno will get very unsteady in the penalty area as well.

[TheFiveTime]

Good team considering the circumstances. Looking forward to it

We have concided 4 goals in the last 2 league games playing a 4 so you have to try something.

We've conceded 4 with Vestergaard at the back. It's the personal, not the formation.

[CloudFox]

Interesting line up! Good to see Evans back. Hope he's up to fitness now.

 

Anyone managed to find a decent stream for this yet? All the usual suspects are letting me down today.

[Guest Col city fan]

Not sure about 5 at the back. Brings them onto us too much Imo.

[reynard]

Really need to get in their faces but we won't. Game will be won and lost on midfield and theirs look a lot stronger than ours. Sancho and Ronaldo to score.

What was all that nonsense about them not having any available CBs? 

I'd take a draw right now but we will need to score at least 4 to win.

[StanSP]

It probably doesn't mean much but Youri and Vardy are training with Evans Ricardo and Castagne. 

 

So maybe that's the back 5 with Amartey and Soyuncu up front with Kelechi?

5-3-2/3-4-3 then?

[Keiriel]

Here you go, folks. Listen to this to prepare yourselves ahead of time, seeing as we'll be hearing it a lot with Bruno in and around our box:

 

 

[Dahnsouff]

Getting my Christmas wish in early.

 

Dear Santa

Please can I have a penalty for Leicester City, given to Jamie Vardy after almost zero contact by Bruno Fernandes 

Love

Dahnsouff

[ronnup]

Stream anyone? 

[majaco]

Manchester unlikely to park the plane

[drumbeat]

My first gut feel; thank christ Evans is back.

 

Maddison needs to repay the trust shown. Soumare to show us both what he can do and that he can play a role.  Midfield is going to be a battle area, to stifle rat face would be good.

Ref pawson and var Darren England …..

Barnes well off it. We've got Ricky P sho is class in the break and Maddison /Kel /Youri all able to hit Vardy with quality early. 

 

Use your loaf kid.
