Can't see anything else than a 1-1 as usually at Old Trafford.

WBA will park the bus and we don't have any players able to score and unlock defenses.

Don't forget that we also play Thursday at Anderlecht, Sunday against Chelsea and the next Thursday against Anderlecht again, so very important that we do our best on Saturday.

I'd try to play as much as fresh player on Saturday against WBA

Without Smalling and Jones, actually we won't play 6 at the back, so that's maybe a good news, so I'd play a very attacking team. And if Fellaini can't play this Saturday, we'll be in big trouble against them.

-----------------------------------De Gea------------------------------------
Valencia-----------------Bailly------------Rojo------------------------Shaw
-----------------------------------Carrick------------------------------------
Mata-----------------Mkhitaryan---------Lingard--------------------Martial
-----------------------------------Rashford----------------------------------

I think we might see Blind in midfield if Felli is indeed out. Although Netherlands have a match tomorrow, so Blind still has time to get a toe injury.

The Brown Bull · Mar 27, 2017

We need to win this game. A scabby 1-0 will do for me.

Adisa · Mar 27, 2017

I not confident. Never seen a big club with a more inconsistent attack.

top1whoisman · Mar 27, 2017

Mike Dean will officiate this.

Maybe even Rooney in midfield.

DDG
Bailly Blind Rojo
Valencia Carrick Pogba Darmian
Mkhitaryan Rashford Martial

I don't want to get Pulis'd again.

Alabaster Codify7 · Mar 27, 2017

Jesus, we're really thin on numbers. This could be grim.

Terminator · Mar 27, 2017

Red Dreams · Mar 27, 2017

thinking of the players we have available really makes you think how much squad improvements we need this summer.

Second string for some positions is simply not acceptable.

Nickosaur · Mar 27, 2017

Midfield 2 of Carrick and TFM, passing and athleticism

Ronaldo's Mum Eh? · Mar 27, 2017

why the pessimistic fans in here?

We will win this.

buckooo1978 · Mar 27, 2017

potentially this game could involve 10-12 defenders..... I'm excited

WhoDaGOAT · Mar 27, 2017

Rojo and Valencia will be tired. But now that Smalling is likely to be ruled out, Rojo will have to start.

I would rest Valencia for the Everton game.

Mata, Carrick, Martial and Young should be well rested and raring to go.

sammsky1 · Mar 28, 2017

Is Rooney fit yet?

who is definitely out?

Pavl3n · Mar 28, 2017

I read that Fellaini, Smalling, Jones, Herrera, Zlatan are out and Pogba and Rooney are doubtful.
That would leave a very interesting line up. Carrick will definitely play, but not sure who will partner him now that our midfielders are injured or suspended. Even if we play 3 CB at the back I don't know who will be the 3rd CB as Smalling and Jones are both out.
I guess will line up with
.........................DDG......................
Valencia......Bailly.....Rojo.........Young
.............Carrick.............Blind...........
Lingard..............Mikhi............Martial
......................Rashford....................

Lingard and Young could be replaced by Mata and Darmian, respectively.
I would take a 1:0 before the game.

I'd go with this but Mata on the right. Lingard never gets up to much on the right. Blind and Carrick deep could help cut off West Brom counter attacks and give us 5 men sitting deep even when one fullback is caught upfield. The Double pivot worked for us with Scholes-Carrick for years and while Blind is no Scholes, you could see one of them managing a ball over the top for Rashford's pace, or opening up a lane for Rojo or Bailly to carry the ball deep into West Brom's half. Might do enough for a 2-1 win, and we get more height to defend set pieces.

Gonna be tough alright!

----------DDG-----------
TV -- Bailly--Rojo--Blind
--------Carrick-----------
--Mata--Mkhi--Young---
-----Rashford----------
------------Matial------

Lingard, Shaw & Rooney are all options of course but I'd like to see there lads give it a go ... maybe not exactly as I've got 'em lined up?
I can see three at the back maybe?

rocks13 · Mar 28, 2017

At least these injuries and suspensions will give Jose and his fanboys plenty of excuses if we don't win.

CS@SG · Mar 28, 2017

all the players above 190cm are absent, right? which WBA likes aerial attack a lot.

Excuses or legitimate reasons? West Brom are a decent side at the moment. I'm still confident we'll win though.

Trizy · Mar 28, 2017

What's the update on Pogba? First match this season and really want to see him live!

Out injured for the next few games.

Source? There’s a few reports that say he might be back for Everton next Tuesday.

mitchmouse · Mar 28, 2017

with all these injuries and suspension, maybe Paul Scholes should come out of retirement again!

Sereques · Mar 28, 2017

The pessimism in here, you do think we are up against Barca.

I'm super happy with the injuries and suspensions, just so that I have an excuse ready if we lose. :houllier:
