Think we'll be lucky to scrape a draw here with Mike at the helm
2-1 HullPhelan's gonna do us over, lads.A late saturday kick-off
Let's play the big guns for this game. We need to show here that United are back and we won't let any team doing a second Leicester. Hull are doing well so far but we really need to put them in bed as City's and Chelsea are doing.
Just hope that all our game changers will be ok.
I would like to get a bit more balance in the midfield to be honest knowing Pogba is not really a 6, but Super Sayajin no Fellaini is doing so well that it's impossible to drop him, especially in these tough away games.
Having say that, I think that (and I hope) Martial get benched to Mkhitaryan.
I'm a big fan of Martial, but he's been poor so far, or average, and his attitude his not the one I would like to see from him.
Same team with Henrikh coming for Martial
Mata wont be dropped you foolsWe'll be unchanged.I only watched their game against Leicester match and they weren't half bad. Did they do well in their 2nd match? or did they fluke their 100% record?A Hull-win and they might be on top after 3 matches.....
Nah we should win but I am really impressed by Phelan's work so far
With your theory - Pogba shouldn't have played against SouthamptonJose please

** could be Pogba, with Mata or Mkhi at 10I confess that for the first time in a long long time Im looking forward to see United play.
Yay! Another game of slow counter attacking. That sounds fun.Can we please get Miki into the game this time because he deserves it with the 15 minutes he had.
See watching that only reinforces how much better he is playing centrally. He's definitely good enough to start for us providing he has quicker players on either side of him, trouble is when we're still shoehorning Rooney, Mata ends up being our sacrificial lamb.
He had a pretty good cameo alright, and I too would like to see him finally start. Mata will continue to do what he does, however Miki has pace. Thought that's why we bought him but here we are playing Mata on the right again.----------------------De Gea

Would love to see this, sadly won't with Rooney likely to start.
Pogba is very good in the more advanced role; however, playing in the deeper role, like we saw him against Southampton, allowed him more space to carry the ball, which is one of Pogba's biggest attributes. It's also something we've lacked in midfield for a while.Jose please

In the 10 role, it can sometimes get a bit congested, meaning it has to be a one/two touch game, as opposed to running with the ball.this is not going to be has easy as some are making out, Hull also have 2 wins, it will be a tough game, I dont agree with the "its only Hull" thing.
I still think we will win but it wont be a walkover.
No Mata ??? I see no reason to drop him.We should play the Rash and Mickey Tarragon.Hull play a 3-5-2 don't they? Using the width is going to be important for this one. I hope we use either Lingard/Mhki on the right.
the midfield battle is going to be key. Livermore+Huddlestone is a pretty powerful midfield, our own Poglani is going to have to get a good foothold on the game. If we can get the ball into Zlatan I can see him making mince meat out of their defence.
We haven't even scored a counterattack goal in the Mourinho era and we won all games with Mata being an important part of the wins. We weren't even bad in an attacking sense. So no reason to drop Mata
Would be great to see this or the variation you mentioned. Rooney will still be in there clogging up the system though.Jose please

Rested?!! Two weeks into a a season. Are you joking? Also considering that there is a week's break for Zlatan after Hull anyway.
Martial has just started to get some form. Resting him now would be ridiculous. Also Mourinho won't underestimate Hull.I can't believe we already have to wait 2 weeks after this match for the derby. Bloody internationals.
Think they did under Bruce but they didn't against Leicester. Livermore played at centre back with Davies that game. I assume they did the same on Saturday.
I agree with this mostly, I thought Martial looked tried in the last match.
What makes it worse is that we've just been dealt another average International tournament. Sick to death of them.
Rested after 2 games ? but in Martial I can see your point , I thought he looked tried in the last game..
No point in moaning about them, they will never go away we just have to deal with them.I really hope Mkhitaryan starts in the right wing over Mata who while a good player just hinders the whole team in attack by drifting in far too often. Mkhi's pace will give us an extra dimension and honestly if he doesn't play then I'll begin to wonder what Mourinhos plan is with him.
True, but moaning is part of our British culture.
Anyway, I'll look forward to Japan's and South Korea's games, so at least there's that for me.
I was just about to post the same sentiment
. I also hope to see Mhkitaryan integrated into our team and established himself as a regular in this game. If not Mhkitaryan, then Lingard out on the right. Not a fan of 3 of our front four being Mata, Rooney and Zlatan. Even though, we performed well against Southamptom.At the moment, I'm probably just about thinking we'll be unchanged, though part of me does think Mourinho might give Mkhitaryan his first start, prior to the international break.
Certainly don't see any more changes than that one if he does.Is Lingard fit enough to start for this one?have a feeling Jose will play an unchanged side. The changes I think will come in September.
EDIT: They have 5 injuries.
We have none.
fingers crossed.----------------------DDG-------------------

Rooney will play...like it or not.
No major problem with it. But I think JM will want to give a few others minutes.- Status
