Is Fred still a United player? Where the feck is he?

Think he is still trying to get out of the Fred the Red suit

Ole was proper pissed with losing Ander.

And worse still, Woodward not getting him a replacement.
Just look at our midfield.

I was proper pissed about losing Ander.

I think everyone should've been, honestly.

After all, he was far and away our 2nd best midfielder, and our midfield was already lacking as it was! Ideally we needed to keep him and bring in another one (ideally two) but did neither.

I've just seen that AWB, Pogba and Martial are all out for this.... I was admittedly confident prior, but now? It's safe to say that confidence is gone.

I’ll go for this. Without Pogba we need more creative midfielder to replace him & I’ll go with Gomes in XI.

Not too bad. Still not sure I would make us favourites with that team though, even at home.

bosnian_red · Sep 13, 2019

Here's hoping that one of Gomes or Greenwood start in the front 4 and it's not Pereira. Also hopefully Fred next to McTominay and not Matic and McTominay.

sincher · Sep 13, 2019

Judging from his turnouts for England U21s and his limited time on the pitch for us so far, I am not sure Greenwood is ready yet. Gomes or Chong would actually be more likely to have an impact I think.

Quite like the idea of Chong running at their defence actually, especially with Martial out.

During pre season Pereira was the GOAT in here

Gandalf · Sep 13, 2019

Easy win. United 2-0. Fully expect a man of the match performance from Matic after all his moaning about being left out of the team.

C'est Moi Cantona · Sep 13, 2019

So the consequences of how we have left the squad are biting early, was only a matter of time, but still it's unlucky for Ole at this stage of the season.

Christ, what a lineup. Tielemens and Maddison will make absolute mincemeat of that midfield. Have a feeling that Vardy is going to run riot, too. Could be a long day.

buckooo1978 · Sep 13, 2019

I take it Pogba and Martial are confirmed out?

DomesticTadpole · Sep 13, 2019

Confirmed United squad members

David de Gea, Sergio Romero, Lee Grant, Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Victor Lindelof, Harry Maguire, Axel Tuanzebe, Phil Jones, Ashley Young, Scott McTominay, Nemanja Matic, Andreas Pereira, Fred, Juan Mata, Angel Gomes, Tahith Chong, Mason Greenwood, Marcus Rashford, Daniel James

King7Eric · Sep 13, 2019

Seems like all of Gomes, Chong and Greenwood will be in the squad tomorrow. Can see Greenwood starting.

I guess the bright side is that we'll probably see Gomes on the bench. Not very confident of a win though.

This might honestly be the worst premier league squad we've ever put out

Holy shit

What's tragic is that we might even see Rojo or Tuanzebe rather than AWB if he isn't fully fit

Leicesters' game to lose this.

Interview might be a crock of shit though given the 'anonymity' of the apparent interviewee...

I don't know who the mastermind behind the Fred transfer was, but Mourinho was the manager at the time of purchase and has to take responsibility for it not working out.

Lee565 · Sep 13, 2019

Ole has to take quite a bit of the blame for our current squad, it was made known that the club didnt have to sell lukaku just like they made it known they didnt have to sell pogba, hence why we were able to hold out but if anything lukaku made him leaving the club inevitable by going AWOL but even then he said he would have stayed had he been told he was still wanted at the club which Solskjear obviously didnt and wanted him sold as he didn't fit his he wanted to play and remember we were also willing to buy Longstaff for around 20-25 million but got mugged off with his valuation, plus we were close to swapping lukaku for dybala, so we had more money to spend than we ended up doing so in the end.

There were players available for free and on loan to help the depth of our team but obviously Solskjear snubbed such ideas or spend the money wiser as Maguire is not worth 80 million and could have got a credible right back for half of the money spent on Bissaka who wasnt going anywhere as not many team with money would spend 40 million on a fullback unless they offer a lot going forward.

You're right that probably is slightly weaker

But we had a real leader in Carrick and Rashford played like Ronaldo

bond19821982 · Sep 13, 2019

Defend deep and hit them on counter especially their full backs play so high and there will be lot of space to run into. Don't try to control the game

And no Lingard. We can do it.

It worked now. Had to take Rojo of the starting lineup and replace him with AWB. (if Rojo starts, I'm owed some fecking points)

Stacks · Sep 13, 2019

Our team is so underwhelming and non favourites that we are going to win this and bring about the 100th false dawn of the post Fergie era

That line up gives me the horn. But not the good kind of horn like what I feel when Susanna Reid is on the telly and she says the word "moist" but more like a horn stabbed through my neck as I bleed out on the cold concrete slabs.

Eddy_JukeZ · Sep 13, 2019

Seeing some of the line-ups :lol:

Man we're in for a long season.

Shiva87 · Sep 13, 2019

Looking forward to this game. 2 weeks without football is suddenly a long time.

Performances have been decent so far, but time to get some points on the board. Tough game to try and do that

Pogba, Martial and AWB out. We'll get to see it Fred and Gomes/Greenwood come in to the starting XI. Hoping Ole goes with:

DDG
Axel. Lindelof, Maguire, Young
Mctominnay Fred
Greenwood Gomes James
Rashford

Expecting to see:
DDG
Young Lindelof Maguire Rojo
Matic Mctominnay
Mata Lingard James
Rashford

AFC NimbleThumb · Sep 13, 2019

For some reason I forgot about Dan James!

We’ll draw this thanks to the Welsh Wizard.

So chance that AWB might be available is very good news. The potential thought of Young at RB & Rojo at LB makes me shiver!

buckooo1978 · Sep 13, 2019

we are such a confidence side.....

if we get a goal and our tails are up we could make it comfortable for ourselves

we haven't been playing that badly and it's been individual mistakes that have cost us

a one goal lead is very dangerous given how fragile we look and Leicester could pick us off

hard to predict this one
