Wound up? Okay dokes. You said he needs to take his chance. I disagree that this should be his only chance. Maybe read your original post again.
Yeah, a lot of fans seem to mix up the clubs not having a game during international week with that meaning the players getting a break.
In reality, it's an even busier period for them as they have two or three games in a short period with extra travelling than usual - some to eastern Europe, others to different continents, playing games in extreme heat or altitude, etc.
The only players that get a rest during international weeks are those not currently selected by, or available to, their international side. So hopefully Wan-Bissaka can benefit from a much needed break.I'm going for Greenwood having a blinder today. His ability to hit the back of the net has never been in question, but he is adding other elements to his game now, and it is only a matter of time before everything clicks for him.I had hoped we'd go with 1 DM so VDB would be deeper and Pogba would maraud forward.
Just doesn't feel like VDB is a 10 for us, and he probably never will be. But deeper and I think he'd be a great option.
The... rest of the season?
Don't you care about the long-term wellbeing of United's players, especially one who nearly lost his leg?Really happy with that team. I think VdB will play #10 with Pogba doing what he did against Milan, almost a free role coming off that left flank. I'm glad Ole had the balls to leave Bruno out as well as Rashford, the evidence of the Milan game was that neither is in shape to play at the moment.
The one thing I wouldn't have done is rest Shaw in the same game you've chosen or been forced to leave out Rashford and Bruno. Everyone else's job is harder when Shaw's not on the pitch, and I'm not sure Pogba or VdB or indeed Maguire will have been happy to see it.
It isn’t my comprehension that’s the issue.
He does need to take his chance. I did not say it was his only chance.
I’d give it a rest before you say anything else that is daft.
I'd imagine he'll be on the pitch if we're a goal behind/level after 45/60 mins.
Ole's done it before, brought Shaw on at HT. I think the ideal scenario is we win the game without him
Yeah, especially with Pogba, it will be a narrow tactic, which to be fair, suits us with no target-manI can’t be bothered with any pre-match moaning. I’m really looking forward to seeing us to destroy this Leicester City back line.Vardy has one goal in his last 15 games... wonder how quickly we'll give him oneThis is going to be a hard game. Amazing if we can get past Leicester and make it through. Should be a good game to watch, imo.
Martial and Greenwood are so important for us in today's game. I could see both scoring, with maybe Greenwood getting the winner.
Winning the FA Cup would be excellent obviously but stopping them equalling or improving on our Treble is imperative.....IMHOLooking at Leicester’s line up today, seems they want to go big on the counter.Career defining game for Donny.When are they doing the draw?Barring a complete disaster we should have enough to do them today..Iheanacho is in red hot form, we must keep an eye on him.Should be really interesting to see how we do against Leicester's defence. Finally we're able to see their deploy Soyuncu, Evans and Fofana together. In theory that should be a strong setup.
Martial is capable of causing problems to any team, perhaps not scoring but making openings for himself and teammates. So we'll see how he does
at htGood to see Shaw and Bruno rested.
Hoped to see Bailly start, I didn't see anything about him being injured.
DvB must bring something to the team in Bruno's absence, Martial must show more desire and fight to get back into goal scoring form.
I guess he's in trouble then, because, based on past form for United, I'm not expecting much from him. It will help him having Pogba next to him, though.
Same goes for Martial, tbf, it will help him having Pogba on the pitch too.Vardy has scored 1 in his last 15..
Age finally catching up?
He'll def score today, but that's quite the decline.Leicester have only won one of our last 25 meetings.
Thanks. Hope City get Chelsea. They won't though, it'll be us vs one of them...
Was that the Clattenberg 5-3 game?Can I hear drumming?Kick-offPerformance is more important for me. Let’s show progress in terms of it.Jermaine Jenus co- commentating, give me strength.FFS Jenas
I mean I'm looking, but there doesn't appear to be a button to turn Jermaine Jenas off.Jenas, again, fecking everywhere.Why the feck is Jenas on every bit of media? Fecking stupid cnut.
The Sun has Bailly is angry, upset and furious.

Yeah, I agree with that. That's a very good point.
Squad rotation should be about tweaking line ups without overly weakening them and effecting performances and results. Without Rashford and Fernandes going forward, it's another huge loss to take out Shaw as well. And taking out too many makes the job of those coming in even harder.
Shaw does need to be managed and rested at times, but it's not great doing it in a game were Rashford and Fernandes are already missing from the line up.Offside, but excellent defending from TellesTielemans trying to get Martial sent off.Time to mute Jenas.- Status
