Man Utd, a match thread

[Jaspa]

Maddison out wide, otherwise very good. Still doubt we'll win and would be happy with a point at OT.

 

Just have a go and no injuries please

Strong line up. A bit risky playing Evans, Fofana and Castagne together when short on fitness. Big job for Mendy on Fernandes but KDH will probably have a bit more defensive responsibility in a midfield 3. 

Think Rodgers is going to get at them which is what we need to do… can’t hide away especially when Man U aren’t the best anymore

Stream?

That back 4 has early sub written all over it 

 

Great on paper too see those names on the team sheet, but people will be moaning they've been brought back too quickly if they get injured again.

The most injured back four  but probably our best players you could argue too

And no Ronaldo for them. We'll piss it 

I'd be more confident if he was playing.

Full backs are good but could easily be the opposite sides.Nearly a proper first team ( bar Vardy ,Ric,Wilf and uncle tom cobley)

Soumaré injured still or not good enough for the squad. 
 

Bit worrying either way ahead of Thursday. Choudhury to come in for Mendy? 

I'd sooner have Amartey in Wilf's place

Like this!

I like this a lot. I have been wanting fofana to start this all week. For me this is the best team for today. Fingers crossed for no injuries but I have a good feeling about this. COYB 🦊🦊🙏🏻

How about Amartey, Soumare and Mendy in midfield? 

 

[ozleicester]

Where do i find the b match thread?

[adejo92]

Nice line up that, hopefully Evans makes it past the warm up!

 

Think this can go either way.

 

Hopefully Maguire has another stinker.

Amartey is a good defender but can’t play wilfs role at all… Mendy is the better option

I think he meant because mendy isn’t available for Europe

Will probably end up as a diamond in possession and a 4-1-4-1 when we’re not on the ball.

 

So if we can control the game, Maddison shouldn’t be out wide too much and will hopefully be able to find pockets of space in between the lines.

Finally, a bench that doesn't make me cry!

FOFANA AND EVANS START

 

 

Hard to pick fault with this lineup, maybe the back four haven’t been fully fit but he sees them in training and thinks they are ready. That is for me the best lineup he could pick. No back 5 so I’m happy 

[The Guvnor]

We've won our last three against these, let's make it four.

[weller54]

Fancy Maguire to be our man of the match today!

[OntarioFox]

Hot damn, that back line actually fills me with confidence for once!

4-4 draw nailed on.

Nah, it's a shame... he was nowhere at ours.

Still think Justin and Castagne should be on opposite sides.
