No need to be rude, it means we don't see him as ready yet. Giving his contract situation that has implications
So we're going to be lining up with Rojo as CB next season and Rashford on the bench as well then?

Did you not see the last friendly, the one where Gomes was also on the bench and only made a few minutes appearance due to an injury. If you don't get enough minutes in pre season you wont be ready for the season. Its not rocket science.

No Gomes again... guess we know what that means
Put in a quality display and shift in 2 games and to get fecked over now.

He is quality and ready, one of the best players on the ball in the squad. Plays also with grit and determination. Deserved a start.

Can see him leaving at the end of the season if he gets overlooked for another few weeks/months, he is free to agree a new contract with someone from January onwards.

Still got 3 games left (including this one) and he may even come on at half time.

Take your face for a shite, its a forum full of opinions.
What's your opinion then?

Gomes is gone because he's on the bench against spurs in pre season?

You lot moan about anything and everything. Means absolute feck all.

We live in hope, from the players perspective though its not looking great.

Hope Angel gets a full half. I honestly think we need to be VERY careful or he’s gonna leave. Other than Greenwood, he’s the best talent to come through our academy in a very long time and I include Rashford in that.

Don't get me wrong, I'm worried about his minutes, but until we get closer to the end of the pre-season. If he's not started one game then, then I'll lose my shit .

So we're lining up like this?

De Gea
Wan-Bissaka - Smalling - Rojo - Young
McTominay - Pereira
Pogba
Greenwood - Martial - James

Or maybe Pereira in the hole?
Pereira Mctominay midfield makes me want to cry.

Looking at that team it looks like we will be more focused on the defensive side the second half!

We only have 2 games of pre season left, the next one is in Norway so hopefully we see him start then but I honestly don't think he'll start either as Ole will be starting the lads who play vs Chelsea.

McTominay in any midfield position is fine by me.
Absolutely - not sure why he's still underrated by our fans. Nowhere near his full potential and still very good.

Imagine getting even a tiny bit worked up about the line-up for a completely meaningless pre-season friendly.

Life's too short people.

Nope, just telling you what I'll do :D.

We'll have to see, like I said, he still may get 45 mins today.

Smalling & Rojo OMG haha that has mistakes written all over it.

Although I was told in no uncertain terms on here by someone that Kane lives in Smalling's pocket so I am sure he has this in the bag.

Midfield looks mobile, interesting to see what this Ndombele is like for them, if he is as good as the hype.
