Why are United always away?
Been away every match so far this season haven't we
Home against both Brighton and LiverpoolFirst team for me. Build momentum and rest when you're winning. Don't try and be too smart.
De Gea
Dalot Varane Martinez Malacia
Casemiro Fred
Antony Eriksen Sancho
MartialLast edited:These are still a very talented side. They've been quite unlucky so far this season and I think they'll be bang at it on Thursday.
I'd be delighted with another narrow win.Comfortable 3 points for us.
When was the last time we won a competitive game comfortably..? Honestly can´t remember. Leeds at home last season?
We're better now and Leicester are rancid.Seems like we are playing them at a good time. If we put in effort and focus, we should win without too much fuss.
So good chance that we lose.Considering we play Arsenal on Sunday, I think we might make quite a few changes for this one.
DDG, Shaw, Martinez, Varane, AWB, Casemiro, Fred, Rashford, Fernandes, Ronaldo, SanchoIs there a press conference today?The idea if fames being played on deadline day is totally ridiculous. Especially given how long it takes these clowns to register players these days. So many teams will be left short, and will probably mean that the deadline day will be Wednesday in reality.
All it takes is one phone call and then the likes of Wan-Bissaka or Ronaldo have to be pulled out of the squad, leaving us short. There could be sudden developments with several players, and if that happens, they cannot play. Any replacements through the door, even as early as Wednesday probably can’t play either. It will disrupt many teams with many player’s futures still being uncertain.
Dont even start with bringing Maguire back.I hava a feeling we are going to change a lot
De Gea
Wan Bissaka Lindelof Maguire Shaw / Dalot Maguire Martinez Shaw

Tomorrow 1pmAnyone know any good places to park for the King Power ?---------------- ---- De Gea ----- -----------
Dalot--- Varane --- Martinez--- Malacia
---------- ------------Casemiro---- ------------
----------- Bruno ------- ----Eriksen-------------
Sancho ---‐------------------------ Rashford--------
-------------------Ronaldo-------------------
But I would rather see Sancho on the leftReally tough choices to be made with the starting 11 for this one with Arsenal just a a few days later.
If it were me I'd start:
--------------------------------------------------------------De Gea------------------------------------------------------
AWB---------------------------Varane-----------------------------------Martinez------------------------------Shaw
--------------------------------------------Casemiro------------------Fred----------------------------------------------
Sancho -----------------------------------------------Fernandes------------------------------------------Elanga
-------------------------------------------------------------Rashford------------------------------------------------
Dalot, Malacia, Anthony and Eriksen to start against Arsenal (Maybe Martial also depending on how Rashford performs).
We have some decent squad depth for once. Just lacking at right back and Striker really.Is Leicester much of an aerial threat? Would consider resting Varane and starting LindelöfHow serious is Martials injury?

Leicester are out of form I hope it continues that way, we can't overplay Varane, Maguire wasn't bad even against Brentford and Brighton. Elanga shouldn't be starting at United he tries but the quality is lacking. Hopefully Martial is OK to make the bench so we could utilize him in the second half, Casemiro full debut excites me.
Confidence. I'm not there yet. I've been burned too many times in the last decade by false dawns.
Come Thursday, Vardy will blast past Varane because the French twat won't look at his feet and end up tripping over a jumping Martinez, who has decided that he wants to be a kangaroo when he grows up. Then Malacia will overhear a United fan saying that he's only here because he's Dutch and his head will drop. 2-0 Leicester. Antony won't be there because it'll turn out he just came over for Van De Beek's wedding. Ten Hag will buy a wig and lose his magical bald powers, shift us into a 5-4-1 with Fernandes as a False 9, ten loses in a row coming up.
But they're not robots. We can't play with them 3 days later against a high intensity Arsenal if we play them on Thursday against Leicester.Surprised to see so many people including Fred in their lineups.
He was absolutely dreadful against Brighton and Brentford, was subbed at half time in both matches.
McTominay was very good against Liverpool and Soton, not sure in what world you pick the poorest performer this season for us for a tough away match where we lost last season.
Let Fred pick up some form in the Europa league.
Eriksen might get rested for the Arsenal match.People need to stop fixating on the Arsenal match. The team we pick on Thursday needs to be with the primary objective of beating Leicester.
Cool formation
Ahh yes the 2-2-1-1-2-1-1 formation with offset GK playing from LB. ETH truly is a revolutionary coach.
Haha judging by a couple of comments I presume this is showing differently on other people screens?
On mine it just shows as a 4-2-3-1
Exactly - we’re not good enough to rotate. Leicester also are going to have a reaction for sure and are always up for it against us. Forget Arsenal, focus on the game in hand and win that.Leicesters season starts here, pressing like maniacs with the crowd going absolutely mental. 6-0, they'll then roll over and lose to some shite at the weekend.
I see 2 RB’s, Shaw at defensive midfield, Fred at LB and De Gea as a Left goal keeper, interesting to say the least.Haha judging by a couple of comments I presume this is showing differently on other people screens?
On mine it just shows as a 4-2-3-1
No chance of Antony starting really, the game is only two days after today which is the day I am assuming it'll be officially announced.
Expecting this:
DDG
Dalot Varane Martinez Malacia
Casemiro
Eriksen Bruno
Sancho Ronaldo Rashford
Sounds like something van Gaal could be tempted to try outWe've got to keep this little run of results going into the Arsenal game and build some momentum up. I wouldn't make many changes if at all possible. Maybe bring in Casemiro from the start. Leicester raise their game against us, so we need to be wise to that and enforce ourselves on the game in the first 15 mins - really important we start well against these. 0-2.
The thought I guess there is ETH can use Fred how Fred should be used with Casemiro at DM instead of Fred as the DM when he is paired with McTominay and because Casemiro and Fred have history playing together for Brazil so there should be a rapport between the 2 which will help Casemiro only having had a handful of training sessions with the team
Pretty much.This will be a comfortable win. 3-0.Why do we have a match on Thursday and then on Sunday? That's some real nonsense.
Come on, we just don't too comfortable....- Status
