Think Fred will be benched for this one. The fact that he was subbed before McTominay against Brighton who was on a yellow must’ve meant something.
Eriksen outperformed Fred significantly in the deeper role.

3-1 United

McT, Rashford, Dalot should be dropped based on the last performance.

Eriksen deep and Ronaldo starts (assuming Martial is injured still). Another option is Eriksen for Bruno and bring in VDB, or Garner. As long as McT is benched.

Garnacho for Rashford for me, but could see Elanga.

Would be AWB for Dalot but he's barely featured in preseason, not sure if Laird will still be around? Probably Dalot keeps his spot.

Would bite your hand off for a point if offered right now.

[amolbhatia50k]

They're going to press the shit out for us aren't they?

 

[amolbhatia50k]

I'd stick Erikson and Fred on either side of Martinez.

Garnacho, Ronaldo and Sancho up top.

Bruno benched.

Bruno benched.

Not sure a back three with Martinez, Eriksen and Fred will work. They won't expect it, though!

Finally.
Can you explain how do you imagine this working? 3 AMs, zero midfielders after a game we lost two goals and conceded xG of about 1,7?

 

[DickDastardly]

I hope we practiced other formations....

Something in the lines of 352 offer themselves at the moment, considering Erik has lost faith in Fred and Scott.

DDG
Varane - Maguire - Martinez
Dalot - Fred - Eriksen - Bruno - Malacia
Sancho - Rashford

We're short up top, but it looks solid defensively.
It just undermines the whole "score goals" thing.

It would be a rational thing to do for ETH, until he get's Frenkie.

 

[FireballXL5]

They're going to press the shit out for us aren't they?

Yep, and we'll stroll around clueless about how to deal with it...as per usual.

More like 3-1 to Brentford if we put this team out

feck Dalot, mcTom, Fred and Bruno

 

[GoldanoGraham]

Id move Martinez into the holding midfield position and bring in Varane or Bailey to partner Maguire.

Id play Donny alongside Erikson in the middle.

upfront it’s a toss up……maybe Rock Paper Scissors to pick who plays there…..

 

[Wilt]

Must win game, with Pool next Utd will be in deep shit if they drop points against Brentford

I like the idea of martinez in midfield and to drop mcfred. I wouldn't have ronaldo and martial in the team just yet, I would go for garnacho to start with martial at top.

 

[Cantonagotmehere]

I could see ETH benching Bruno and then one of McT and Fred.

 

[FiiiiveTenHaaags]

I think we will draw but could easily lose.

Might as well start things out. The way I see it we have nothing to lose as in no way, shape or form is this squad getting top 4 this season and provided that it doesn't really matter where we finish between 5th and 17th.

Maguire isn’t getting dropped. Think Martinez as DM has some merits though, until we get a proper one in.

 

[George The Best]

I could see ETH benching Bruno and then one of McT and Fred.

Hope McT doesn’t figure in this, they will batter us in midfield.

 

[r3idy]

Please keep Shaw away from that team, give Tyrell a go

 

[Hugh Jass]

A draw i would say.

 

[Shark]

Feels like last season on repeat after that first game. God help us.

 

[Art]

We are definitely conceding first.

 

[Cantonagotmehere]

Please keep Shaw away from that team, give Tyrell a go

Pretty pretty please. Wish he would just go away.

 

[Andy_Cole]

At best a draw. Need any points on the board.

Serious question, is there any inclination that ETH would use him that way? It sounds good to me.

 

[kopviolator]

We need to win to keep the title dream alive

Why do I see Martinez in CM in so many line ups? I don't think this will ever happen and ETH pretty much confirmed that already

Genuinely im all for getting behind the players and giving them backing. Shaw is such a coward of a footballer. Meek in Attack, Meek in Defence. Epitome of this shit team
