It's on BBC1.

De Gea
Rafael Smalling Rojo Shaw
Di Maria Herrera Rooney Januzaj
Mata
Wilson

We don't have anyone else to play in midfield ahead of Rooney do we? Fellaini I guess but he's not deeper lying player. Think this would be great to watch, potentially, if we play a quick counter attacking game.

Mali_Zeus · Feb 11, 2015

Falcao needs to be dropped. Dont know if Blind will play, if not put Fellaini in his position, start with Herrera and Mata behind Rooney and RVP.

BBC One (UK), Fox Sports 1 (US)

Raw · Feb 11, 2015

Give Mata and Herrera a start. Stop playing Falcao and Januzaj then play Rooney up front.

Something has to change.

You should PM him and give out about it.

This is gonna be fun.

Solius · Feb 11, 2015

Would love to see:

de Gea
Rafael - Smalling - Rojo - Shaw
Blind
Herrera --- Di Maria
Mata
Rooney - Wilson

What I expect to see:

de Gea
Valencia - Someone - Rojo - Shaw
Not Herrera
Not Herrera --- Not Herrera
Not Herrera
THE DEADLY DUO OF FALCAO AND RVP. OPPOSITION BEWARE.

Anderson's Cat · Feb 11, 2015

Monday night game?? Well that's a bit shit.

Boycott · Feb 11, 2015

Another David Moyes derby in the cup!

.Rossi · Feb 11, 2015

Smalling and Fellaini up front.
Tell Evans the game is at Old Trafford

We have had a lot of annoying kickoff times this season. Early on the weekends, Friday and Monday matches. Part of the price for no Europe I guess

pascell · Feb 11, 2015

We'll scrape it like a dog dragging it's arse across a carpet, 2-1.

Do you think he would listen to a ...er well ...a newbie

ChaddyP · Feb 11, 2015

Play with width and pace and we will win

Could be a blessing if Blind's head injury isn't too bad, gives him time to shake it off.

Yeah totally. He loves getting PMs. Let me know how it goes.

LvG just said he has a bit of a headache, but that he should be OK for this game. Jones doesn't sound good, could be his knee.

SMH.. made of glass

DWelbz19 · Feb 11, 2015

Hopefully Rafael, Mata and Herrera start this one.

Are Preston filled with big cloggers? Going to probably be enough scrappy match.

Walters_19_MuFc · Feb 11, 2015

I'd like to see us go with wingers like we did in second half against Burnley tonight, in order to stretch the opposition and be a counter attacking threat. Felt we looked a lot better.

Rooney up front please. Mata and Herrera to start.

One can dream

Good news. Even with lower league opposition on the cards, I wouldn't fancy us going into a game without him in the inevitable one man midfield role.

The Stain · Feb 11, 2015

Can see this line-up happening:

---------------- De Gea ------------------
----- McNair - Smalling -- Rojo--------
Valencia - Rooney - Herrera -- Young
--------------- Di Maria ---------------
----------- Wilson -- RvP ---------------

ugh. valencia and young on the wings... no thank you.

i'd be happy with the formation we used at the end today, minus evans and falcao.

The Stain · Feb 11, 2015

Didn't say i'd like to see it..

--------------De Gea----------
Rafael---Smalling--Rojo--Shaw
----------Fellaini--Herrera-----
---Mata------Rooney----Di Maria
---------------Wilson-------------

Or at least play Rooney as a striker, start with more than one central midfielder in midfield and give Rafael a start.

This game should at least be entertaining.

It would be great if we saw Rooney at his actual position up top and Herrera starting in midfield.

Wishful thinking though...

bucky · Feb 11, 2015

Hoping for:

De Gea

Rafael - Smalling - Rojo - Shaw

Blind

di Maria - Fellaini - Herrera - Januzaj/Wilson

Rooney

This team would

A) Demolish Perston.
B) Get us top 3.
C) Provide exciting football.
D) Never see the light of day in a Louis van Gaal side.
