It’s got to be this with no Martial. Wouldn’t have Ronny near the pitch. Although I have to say I would have McT in instead of DVB who has been poison so far.DDG

He has to play, what's our other options? Elanga or Rashford at '9' no effing way!The manager will start him and will be called weak, and “won’t last” on here.
No way he starts.My instant reaction is Martial isn’t really injured and Ronaldo is just that powerful.
I’ll be shocked if he doesn’t start.

No he won’t. Donny is a huge disappointment and should be no where near the first team because he isn’t good enough.He'll keep it and move it up the pitch better than Mctominay.
This is just an illusion you guys have. He's way worse than McTominay.He'll keep it and move it up the pitch better than Mctominay.
Nah better tackler, better on the ballThis is just an illusion you guys have. He's way worse than McTominay.
Donny's worse than hopeless in centre midfieldHe'll keep it and move it up the pitch better than Mctominay.
He actually did have a few good performances there in the latter part of 20/21 and beginning of 21/22. Indeed it's the only time since he's been here that he's shown something about him and made me think he might turn it around. Of course he's struggled again since then...Donny's worse than hopeless in centre midfield
What? He's our player on 500k/week and I hope he does start, we need him.No way he starts.
He wants to leave and TH will look a mug if he starts him.
Drop DVB for Elanga down the mid? He may not do much but press a lot, but maybe that's okay.DDG

He doesnt want to be here. We dont need players like that regardless of what he is being paid.What? He's our player on 500k/week and I hope he does start, we need him.
Makes the most sense to be honestDe Gea

As long as Malacia/Shaw overlap and provide the width on Eriksens side. I'd say it's our best bet, don't believe Bruno can be a false 9.Makes the most sense to be honest
Edit: swap the centre backs round though
What do I want to see?

Sancho looked very good on the right the last few weeks. I think it can work as you’ve laid it out in your initial post.As long as Malacia/Shaw overlap and provide the width on Eriksens side. I'd say it's our best bet, don't believe Bruno can be a false 9.
You could also switch Sancho for Eriksen and have Sancho come off his preferred left wing.
Yes we do need good players even if they want/wanted out unfortunately. We need points above all.He doesnt want to be here. We dont need players like that regardless of what he is being paid.
Anyway he did feck all preseason.
true but still - If I was ETH I wouldnt play him until after the deadline - assuming he is still hereYes we do need good players even if they want/wanted out unfortunately. We need points above all.
I still feel like too many names are there for the sake of their names and not what they are doing right now, I don't care how much they cost, Garnacho needs to be rewarded for being best on the pitch when he played, Zidane for me showed more in CM during pre season than any other deeper mid. I know it's only midfield so let's see how they get on here, I don't see that their level is so low that we will stand out against Brighton for it but I trust the manager at this stage, if he picks a different team and gets the right result, he made the right choice.Exciting AF, fearless, optimistic and definitely won't turn Trafford into library.
Clearly isn't about to completely change the same formation he has played every game so far?--------Rashford---------Sancho
-----------------------Bruno
---------------Fred----------Eriksen
----------------------Garner
Malacia-Martinez-Maguire-Dalot

If Ten Hag wants to destroy ego culture, this is exactly one of ways doing it. Rewarding hard work and simply the players who act professional.I still feel like too many names are there for the sake of their names and not what they are doing right now, I don't care how much they cost, Garnacho needs to be rewarded for being best on the pitch when he played, Zidane for me showed more in CM during pre season than any other deeper mid.

I think this one too. I’m not completely sure on Martinez because it might be too early for him. New team, league, english not his first language, depends on how settled he is. Also not sure how fit both Shaw and Sancho is after their illness(?). Might be an early sub with Malacia so we have someone to bomb down the left flank.De Gea

Garnacho had just one match chance and he immediately clicked with entire group on the pitch. During Ole era we gave some lads chances and they threw it away, match after match.
