Not only in 4-3-3, him and Pogba just dominated Anderlecht young starlets midfield three away!
Ok I'll reprashe my words if you want it exact
There's no reason why Martial should be played in such an important game. He has shown nothing this season to suggest that he can be depended on in crucial moments. Rashford on the other hand did the business against Chelsea and looked the real deal. He has to start. Like it or not, the Martial fanboys have to accept that their man is way down the pecking order. He isn't the ballon d'or winner many seem to think he is.

Nonsense.
I can see why you're still a new member. You jump to conclusions very quickly for a start. I am not a Martial fanboy, go and check my recent posts about him in his performance thread. I put him there because I think he will start given that Rashford has played two games already this week alone, and Mourinho rotates a lot because we have a lot of games coming up.
I agree, I think he'll be on from the start.
Definitely not. What will make Jose play him over Lingard , Rashford , Mikhi or Zlatan who are all performing at the moment ?
Ok, but is he fit or is Mourinho just not using him?Definitely not. What will make Jose play him over Lingard , Rashford , Mikhi or Zlatan who are all performing at the moment ?
I don't think he'll even be on the bench. I'm getting used to him not present actually
This is the question no one clearly knows the answer as Jose isn't making it clear when asked about him, he always says he " is not available " so don't what that means. I think it's a combination of both , he's not fit enough and Jose lost any trust he still had in him after the Bournemouth game. He tried too hard to include him at the team even as a sub but all in vain . I'm sure he's leaving in summer no doubt for me.
Darmian's had a turnaround so can see him staying. From Zlatan, Carrick, De Gea and Jones/Smalling, they could leave but doubt all of them will. From Shaw, Martial and Rooney I'd be very surprised if any of them will be here next season.
Not necessarily. Jose likes to play him against tougher opposition or in away games. I'm expecting a midfield 2 of Pogba and Herrera.
According to Sqawka in just PL games it is actually 74.9%. In the Europa League it is 68.6%.
That would be very risky. Anderlecht won't push too much until the last 10 or so minutes. If we just sit back, we might end up conceding a late goal.
Feel like I've gone back in time with people still holding this view.
I think we'll have use most of the players from the Chelsea game again. Romero, Zlatan and Mkhi to come in for De Gea, Young and Fellaini. We'll play a slightly weaker team against Burnley and then back to this team against City.
Nothing really bold in this prediction as 30% of Caf expect that result including me. If we score an early goal, we'll easily score a few more. We need to finish off the game in the first half itself.
It would be rather interesting to try Zlatan and Rashford as a strike pairing. One has aerial prowess and strength, the other has pace. But this kind of game is no time for experimentation. It's a must win game. We HAVE to win. I expect us to stick to what we know, and to use what has worked, and allow the sheer quality of our players to be the difference maker.
