Wilson should have been there instead of hernandez. We know hernandez is on the market and we need to build for the future. It may be a goodbye appearance for hernandez? I dont get the point playing him, if we want to sell him.

Evans is always fecking injured. I like him, but he's a liability in that regard.
Always gets niggling injuries. Its frustrating we havent signed ny defenders considering we only have 3 centre halves and we play three centre halves in our formation.
It may also be that LVG is giving these three a final chance to impress to see what will be his starting team on saturday.

The MUTV coverage is a lot better than it ever has been lately.

Nice to se Lingard on the bench. Think he deserves it.
Don't know why Amos is there instead of Lindegaard though.

Fellaini... the only name I didn't want to see.

Why Hernandez???I reckon they are hoping that he performs well and get noticed by other clubs,so we can offload him quickly.

No Wilson on the bench, bit of a shame really. Wonder if he might be going on loan?

Just a quick one on the 'Wilson should have been on the bench' theme. I think Van Gaal might intend to play Januzai as a striker off the bench as he is not defensive enough to play wing-back. He played as a striker fairly regularly in the reserves. Presumably he wants to give him a run out and some added fitness. Wilson will get his chance and I reckon he wouldn't mind the pea scoring a few today to put some extra value on his transfer out of here.

A good team, but I have to say, I'm very disappointed for young Wilson, he deserved some game time for his recent performances imo. Not saying he should have started, but should have been on bench for certain, particularly with Welbeck and Robin out.

I don't think it's hate, it's just that the general consensus is that he's leaving and we'd rather see a player that is staying at the club get a chance.
Maybe he isn't leaving and needs the match time to prepare for the season.

I was hoping Kagawa would start. I mean Mata is already nailed on as the starting CAM, I wonder if he's even looking over his shoulders at the competition. Kagawa hasn't been given a proper chance in the role alongside other starters in preseason, as his apps have been as a sub with fringe players and as a CM.

Maybe, but he's fallen out of favour for his country and he seems to want game time. No way he's going to get it here I'm afraid. Maybe he will play on Saturday if Welbeck still isn't fit though.

Birthday yesterday, shiny new replica shirt from the missus. Can't wear it for game cause Iv'e just had a tattoo on me shoulder and its oozing ink all over. So if we win tonight, does that mean I cant wear it during games in the future. It's all about the lucky rituals!! I'm so confused.
