Brentford vs Manchester United

Red Dreams · Dec 12, 2021

Cavani is starting training only tomorrow if I heard Ralf correctly.
Same with Varane.

Nicoseth · Dec 12, 2021

Another win, 2-1. We'll need to make some changes though - I can see hime starting Matic or Donny in the middle. Greenwood should start over Rashford too. Shaw back in for Telles. Maybe a start for Cavani?

YouknowNani · Dec 12, 2021

If Rashford isn't dropped and he makes illogical subs again, Rangnick needs to go. #RangnickOUT

Harry190 · Dec 12, 2021

I am scared of Brentford. When they turn up, they really turn up.

Hearing a few whispers of a Covid outbreak at Utd and the game in doubt. On a few other forums.

First thing I thought when Lindelof went off.

I think they started light training last week. Maybe they’ll be okay by weekend but not midweek.

Mata and Matic apparently. Sounds like only two.

RUCK4444 · Dec 12, 2021

I’d bring Matic and Shaw back in, Greenwood to start ahead of Rashford.
Brentford will look at the Norwich game and be well up for this. Need to be play with some purpose and energy as a bare minimum in this game.

Hester_manc · Dec 12, 2021

I would love it, if Brentford`s Christian Nørgaard played for us. He would be a better alternative as a no. 6 than any of our current players.

lex talionis · Dec 12, 2021

Banana skin, to be sure.

Marcus and Bruno should be dropped for Brentford. Shaw to return for sure. You wonder if Ronaldo can go back after only two days rest. Sounds like Matic may be out so we press on, so to speak, with McFred.

We can’t go on beating lesser clubs by the skin of our teeth. A bit too Ole.

Brentford are a decent side, we'll need to be much better than we were today, I'd like to see a couple of changes with Mason and VDB coming in.

Good lineup, think the game requires more control and I think VDB and Greenwood should add that.

Not good. Can see Toney bullying Maguire.

Maguire has never been bullied by anyone, he’s a tank. He’s more prone to getting done by trickery or pace. You are right though that Toney is a significantly bigger challenge to handle overall.

SonyaCross493 · Dec 12, 2021

Same team as against Norwich but dropping Bruno and Rashford for Donny and Greenwood

darko · Dec 12, 2021

Bruno and Marcus should start on the bench - Donny and Greenwood to start in their place. I can also see RR changing both FBs.

SadlerMUFC · Dec 12, 2021

I am not convinced by this 4-2-2-2 formation. Perhaps it can work, but not with the same players in midfield/attack. I want to see some change. I'd also rather see a 4-3-3 but played with proper midfielders. I don't know why we insist on playing Bruno in a #10. He's not a midfielder. Play him on the left wing

Not sure if Cavani or Varane are ready but I'd like Varane to get 30 minutes as well as VDB.

Unless the match is out of hand or their is an injury, he would sub CBS.

UTD_Since_1978 · Dec 12, 2021

Maybe being postponed due to Covid outbreak according to SKY Sports.

Why don't pro footballers have the jabs?

Plenty with two jabs and a booster jab test positive for COVID.

Cheers. Where are you getting the info?

If that's right, we should be able to manage.

Think that info is now probably outdated. Just a few of the lads who write for Red Issue / UWS seemed to get the whisper first but it was all hearsay at the time.

Some fresh legs against a very good opposition at a tough ground. Bruno and Rashford off the bench as required. Need to start using and trusting the squad a bit more with games packed into a tight schedule incoming.

minoo-utd · Dec 12, 2021

Start Shaw and Greenwood. A tough game and could be first real test for Ralf.

And bench Bruno.

Offside · Dec 12, 2021

Ronaldo is gunna bang a load in over Christmas.

Greenwood / Shaw should start for Ronaldo / Telles. Would love to see Cavani on the bench.

Also I think it will be better for the team if Bruno and Sancho switch positions. Game gets stretched to the left a lot so it will allow Bruno to come inside and play through the middle.

For Rashford and Telles, I'd say. (I also think Telles has been great, but I bet Shaw plays well with this new pressure)

So true. He is going to eat up tired teams.

Meaning it’s more than a couple players?

Yeah, I'd be tempted to bet on them, they know what they're doing and we definitely don't yet.

Easy loss this

They are nowhere near the same team they were a couple of months ago when they played really well
2 wins in 8 - and those were against Everton and Watford at home. I didn't see the Watford-game but they were lucky to beat Everton.

ColvaleGoa · Dec 13, 2021

The Bees will be absolutely buzzing for this one!

At home they are very good team. They were very unlucky to lose vs Chelsea, they played well against big clubs at home.

Results with xG
Vs Arsenal - 2-0 (1.42 vs 1.19)
Vs Liverpool - 3-3 (3.13 vs 2.67)
Vs Chelsea - 0-1 (2.16 vs 0.31)
vs Leicester - 1-2 (1.39 vs 1.01)

If you don’t feel optimistic then I will remind you one thing that Norwich beat Brentford this season.

You can file Brentford along with any one of Norwich, Burnley, Sheff Utd, etc who all see this game as their nadir, and the players raise their game, and the fans get behind them (along with epic shit "We support our local team" chants, booing ronaldo then videoing him doing his celebration after he's scored against you).

We've got form for fecking these type of games up in the past.

Leftback99 · Dec 13, 2021

Toney back for Brentford.

minoo-utd · Dec 13, 2021

Did the squad train today? any news?

RuudTom83 · Dec 13, 2021

An early goal would help.

Its not been that impressive on the eye recently but credit to the players for grabbing 2 wins. An early goal would change everything and it would be nice to see the RR system played under those circumstances. Its all looking like hard work at the moment.

BlueHaze · Dec 13, 2021

If we play like we did against Norwich I think it will be a draw or a loss. They have to step it up if they want to win against Brentford.

DickDastardly · Dec 13, 2021

What's Brentfords status? Any injuires? Covid's?

They're a good team. This could be our first loss of the new coach era.

We need fresh players, raring to go.
Getting Greenwood, Donny, Shaw, Bailly, from the start would help.

Plant0x84 · Dec 13, 2021

This match could prove to be this seasons Sheffield United game. We have to turn up and put in a performance unlike Norwich game or we will be embarrassed again.
