Whether it’s three at the back or five at the back, the defensive midfielders shouldn’t even be in the argument.Very generous to say that five defenders and two defensive midfielders is three at the back. Very generous, indeed.
We have 12 subs compared to their 9 according to LiveScore.Do we really have 2 keepers on the bench??
We don’t need to win though do weWhat a pathetic negative lineup For a game we need to win.
7 defenders so Typical of Ole hoping Bruno and rashford are going to bail him out As usual.
I’m incredibly nervous. I really don’t care how we do it I just hope we bloody do it!I read this and thought I was reading what I had posted. Which means I totally agree. Not that that is a good thing. I want us to get through. I have to laugh, though. Our captain Harry Maguire said that we would not be playing for a draw, but playing to win. What message does five at the back and two defensive midfielders send, not just to Leipzig but to our own players. I don't think I can watch.
I suspect he was expected to move but a deal was never found.The bench is made up of every available player that was in the Champions League squad minus the injured. Mystery surrounds what has happened to Romero.

My gut feeling is he could get minutes against Watford in the FA Cup,unlikely to feature against Everton in Carabao unless we have wrapped up the game.wAS V
Watched him in the U23 match against Southampton and was impressed, even allowing for the opposition. Has good pace and very direct, hope we can see him soon in the first team, although tonight likely wouldn't be the right time.
Avoid defeat and we're through.What a pathetic negative lineup For a game we need to win.

Wasn't this public knowledge weeks ago?Rumours are that Romero has thrown his toys out the pram having fallen out with Ole. He was angry at being denied a summer loan move to Everton. His wife Eliana Guercio took to her personal Instagram account to claim his exit was blocked. Romero is apparently not part of United’s Premier League and Champions League squads.
H2H.Can we still finish top of the group if both PSG and us win our games today? Everywhere I check United are currently top of the group, but Paris have a better head2head thanks to Neymar's late goal last week. Which counts first: H2H or GD?
I'd have prefered if he went for the VDB option.You were spot on mate!
Watched Pellistri in the Under 23s a few times and he hasn't stood out for me. I know he scored the other day against Southampton but Anthony Elanga, for me, has looked much better.He's playing in the EFL Trophy tonight.
It's head to head. Irrelevant really, let's just focus on qualifying.Can we still finish top of the group if both PSG and us win our games today?

so what if RB score first? we will be completely Fecked. There’s no doubt Ole is relying on a lucky goal. But imagine Chasing a goal with 7 defenders Because you know Ole won’t change anything till 75 mins.We don’t need to win though do we
Even so I would have had VdB in instead of Matic to provide some kind of creative nous.I don't even rate Ole, but even I am not as shocked/disappointed by the selection as most seem to be?
This is what we do in big games. Counter attack.
ThanksIt's head to head. Irrelevant really, let's just focus on qualifying.
Apart from Pellestri but club has made right decision in using him for the EFL trophy game insteadThe bench is made up of every available player that was in the Champions League squad minus the injured. Mystery surrounds what has happened to Romero.
You spelled feck wrong.Free Pogba

too risky to play for a draw. It’s a risky gameplan starting with 7 defensive players.Avoid defeat and we're through.
Classic reverse psychology! @SirAnderson is that you? I always enjoy a double reverse jinx post!!Since then, everytime I've backed us to win we have gone on to either lose or draw....I think we'll lose 5-0 and Bruno and rashford injured for the rest of the season.
Yeah but it's really pathetic and negative though.Avoid defeat and we're through.
He can't say feck pogba.That was a bit of a train wreck of an interview.
While he hasn't stood out, he's looked very solid. Plays well on the right, comfortable with the ball at his feet and can put a cross in. Things we are sorely lacking from that side. He's got a future here, imo.Watched Pellistri in the Under 23s a few times and he hasn't stood out for me. I know he scored the other day against Southampton but Anthony Elanga, for me, has looked much better.
