That bench, so weak.

 

[DJ_21]

Should have started Amad since Hojlund is out. Antony ain't it.

Amad has just come back from a long term injury. He’ll be eased in.

 

[pseudo_canadian]

Hopefully Amad gets involved and replaces Antony at some point

 

[SirAF]

Need Brailsford to teach them how to wash their hands properly.

 

[SB16]

That bench

 

[DJ_21]

That bench, so weak.

We best hope the starting 11 can do the job.

 

[C'est Moi Cantona]

Antony is a lucky, lucky boy

Bad decision by Ten Hag.

 

[Mike Smalling]

Decent line-up. No striking options from the bench is a worry. Would be fun to see Diallo at some point.

 

[always_hoping]

Doesn’t Ten Hag just say illness as a catch all term for unavailable though? Even if they’ve got a dead leg it’s an “illness”

No says ill when ill and injured when injured. Martial illness for the last couple of games he said so hopefully Hojlund hasn't got the same illness that keeps him out for more than one game.

 

[Ollie Derbyshire]

Antony best not stink the place up, he needs to be as direct as Garnacho and Rashford we’re against Villa.

 

[always_hoping]

Bad decision by Ten Hag.

What was the other options?

 

[Walters_19_MuFc]

That bench, so weak.

We have like 10 players out.

 

[prateik]

Is Martial injured again???

 

[Dannn411]

Must win today please. Don't care about any new manager bounce. We need to be beating relegation candidates.

 

[Theo88]

What was the other options?

Just eff it and play 9 outfield players.

Our fanbase likes talking shite about the squad but rarely do they offer a sensible alternative.

 

[Forest Red]

Looks like 4312 for us

Turner
Montial - Niakhate- Murillo - Aina
Yates - Dominguez - Danilo
MGW
Elanga - Wood

could be wrong - Nuno seems to have thrown Curveball?

 

[TheGame]

What was the other options?

There aren’t any but people want to keep slagging ETH off regardless.

 

[BarryWinks]

Wasn't Martial also out to 'illness' around the same time as Rashford?

One wonders the nature of his illness if he's not been passed fit 3 weeks after.

 

[DavelinaJolie]

My god, positive result and chance to build momentum, and side has more injuries and illness. Just can't catch a break this season.

 

[RedDevilRoshi]

Antony best not stink the place up, he needs to be as direct as Garnacho and Rashford we’re against Villa.

I bloody hope he proves us all wrong but his term of being direct is non-stop cutting onto his left foot and blazing his shot wide off the target. The opposition can read his game a mile off.

One of the most one footed players I’ve ever seen.

 

[IncyWincySpider]

Extremely disappointed about Rasmus. Still think this will be a win for us though.

 

[Sassy Colin]

That bench, so weak.

That's all we have available!

 

[Mickeza]

Mctominay up front don't make me laugh.

For a club of the stature we are to only have 1 recognised central forward is absolutely pathetic.

Martial rashford are wingers.

I guess Anthony with zero goals and zero assists in 16 games will have to play.

Martial has been a striker for about 6 years. The guy can’t sprint - of course he isn’t a bloody winger!

 

[Ollie Derbyshire]

I bloody hope he proves us all wrong but his term of being direct is non-stop cutting onto his left foot and blazing his shot wide off the target. The opposition can read his game a mile off.

One of the most one footed players I’ve ever seen.

i’d try him as a false 9, he has good feet and can play a through ball if he collects a bit deeper and slides it through for Garnacho and Rashford

 

[ColvaleGoa]

Well we can count the right side out to do anything.

Just Hope Garnacho has got enough in his tank to last 90 minutes.

Hope we can see Amad today

 

[DWelbz19]

Amad!! Hope he gets on and gets some decent minutes

 

[Giggsy13]

Mainoo and Eriksen is the right balance in midfield. Will be a massive boost once Casemiro returns.

 

[pacifictheme]

I am sure this has been asked a thousand times but when is hojlund?

 

[Manncunian]

I am sure this has been asked a thousand times but when is hojlund?

Out due to illness. And it caused me to only get 10 out of 11 starting correct urgh.

 

[FrankDrebin]

Anthony's last good game was here last year. Hopefully he produces a similar performance.

 

[laughtersassassin]

If Antony stinks it up first half ETH should just say feck it and give Amad the entire second half.

Obviously not much options for ETH today.

Sickening we finally had a decent front 3 and it couldn't even play two games in a row. And what's worse is because we have no striker backup available we have to move Rashford up top and Garnacho back to the left.

If Amad does come in we could possibly throw him false nine. He's done it before to good effect

 

[48 hours]

I am sure this has been asked a thousand times but when is hojlund?

I’ll do you one better, why is Hojlund?

 

[neon_badger]

Taken directly from the clubs official website here's a word from one of our sponsors Ecolab....."In the Carrington training ground, we are helping the Red Devils stay healthy so that they can clean the floor with our rivals."

 

[C'est Moi Cantona]

What was the other options?

Scott playing, Antony not.

 

[pacifictheme]

I’ll do you one better, why is Hojlund?

Ah ffs

 

[Maagge]

Almost as if we’re still in a pandemic.

I think Denmark has been hit harder than during the pandemic in all honesty, just by less serious illnesses. Something like a third of the population was hit at one point apparently.

 

[Withnail]

The illness/injury list grows ever longer.

At least he's sticking with Mainoo/Eriksen. I was beginning to wonder if there'd ever been an end to the McT nonsense.

 

[yamo123x]

Martial has been a striker for about 6 years. The guy can’t sprint - of course he isn’t a bloody winger!

No way is he a natural central striker though is he? He is never in the flipping box. He joined us a number 10 from a counter attacking monaco side... he came in and has always produced his best displays from a wide area.Mediocre at very best we need so much much better

 

[RedUnited86]

I’ll do you one better, why is Hojlund?

Who's Højlund ?

 

[croadyman]

All excitement gone for the game seeing Hojlund out. feck sake.

We needed to keep playing that front 3 from last week. It's the only one that showed any promise.

Yeah when will we catch a break,gutted for him he can't build on that goal against Villa. Only positive is he's now got over a week to get right for the Wigan game. Damn it though he can't do anything in league now until Spurs two weeks tomorrow
