I'd prefer Pogba deeper and Pereira further forward for this one. Get Pogba on the ball as much as possibleFred is going to start this surely. Scott, Fred and Periera midfield with Pogba pushed up in number 10 position behind Lukaku and Alexis. Not the dream midfield but there's no other options.
Not dropping as such, but he's not long got over his injury. I'd really want to rest one of Shaw or Young too and put Dalot in but I feel Townsend and/or Zaha would give him a torrid time.Why would you drop Chris Smalling?
I hear you on that, especially regarding Young and Shaw.Not dropping as such, but he's not long got over his injury. I'd really want to rest one of Shaw or Young too and put Dalot in but I feel Townsend and/or Zaha would give him a torrid time.
Yeah I went with this too. I think it's either that or 3 in the back.Fred is going to start this surely. Scott, Fred and Periera midfield with Pogba pushed up in number 10 position behind Lukaku and Alexis. Not the dream midfield but there's no other options.
I hope so. He's been near perfect since taking over.He's clearly got the job, short of some unbelievable collapse. Don't think that's even up for debate now.
They cost us trouble last season when we had to rely on Matic wondergoal in the dying secondsI'm confident of a win, which is rare for me. Rarely do Palace cause us trouble.
They did, but I was always confident of getting a result. Even at 2-0 down. That's rare for me, but I just wasn't worried against them.They cost us trouble last season when we had to rely on Matic wondergoal in the dying seconds
They did but it was because of our tactics, we were very passive and we allowed them to play.They cost us trouble last season when we had to rely on Matic wondergoal in the dying seconds
That's as bad as Pep naming only 6 subs.Apparently we might be putting two keepers on the bench. That's how bad it is.
Nope. This is BTs package and they've understandably chosen Chelsea vs Spurs.Is this on Sky ?
The option is to play Fred himself behind the strikers, Pogba is better where he plays, and Fred is a much higher attacking threat compared to Pereira. Although it might be better to opt for Gomes instead of Fred in such a setupFred is going to start this surely.

Bah,I was hoping to go watch the match in the pub,oh well.. -ThanksNope. This is BTs package and they've understandably chosen Chelsea vs Spurs.
We get a raw deal in the UK!Bah,I was hoping to go watch the match in the pub,oh well.. -Thanks
Sakho is out and AWB is also out. So that's RB and CB. Tomkins is fit to play, I think he is their first choice CB.People are right to point to the impact of injuries for United, but we should also recognise that Palace are without their 1st choice CB pairing I believe, while whatever keeper they choose, it will be of Championship standard
A long as Lukaku isn't the like striker, we will control this game
Go with a Diamond, be disciplined with the DM, get the full backs to be very attacking and we should keep them pinned in their half
fred will start
That would be thoroughly pointless. We'd just have a youngster on the bench instead surely.Apparently we might be putting two keepers on the bench. That's how bad it is.
Thanks for clarifyingSakho is out and AWB is also out. So that's RB and CB. Tomkins is fit to play, I think he is their first choice CB.
Frustratingly it seems like he's still injured but there's not been much said about him. He's missing a lot of opportunities recently with injuries. Hopefully he'll be back for Southampton but I'm sure more first team players will be back from injury by then.Anyone know if Greenwood is in for a shout. Heard he was injured a few weeks back, seems like the perfect opportunity for him.
The only thing apart from the weather that I enjoy about living in SA these past 6 years is that United are on TV every match. Although we did lose the carabao cup games. So sad.We get a raw deal in the UK!
