Easy win, with Werghorst hat trick.
We need Eriksen for Palace away, while Fred will be needed vs Arsenal away. Otherwise we may struggle physically with Partey and Xhaka.I think ETH has to rotate with so many games in so short time.
................De Gea..........
AWB...Maguire.Martinez...Shaw
........McT.............Fred...............
................Bruno.....................
Antony............................Garnacho

Do you? Good for you!I do prefer the league games.
Those mickey mouse cup games are a PITA.
I expect 3 points, here.
Ah the good old first real test quip that has never been used here twenty thousand timesETH 1st real test?
Other than that it should be similar starting 11 to the game
Casemiro and Fred are 1 yellow from a 1 match suspension, their 4 yellows drop after this. They either miss this game or you risk the chance of them being suspended for Arsenal.Strongest here.
Their form since the restartPalace lost against Chelsea, how hard can this be?
Only the ‘remember Nanis red card v Madrid‘ comes anywhere close but still a distant second!Ah the good old first real test quip that has never been used here twenty thousand times
I’m never a fan of the ‘rest all our best players’ brigade that dominates in every match thread but I do think Casemiro needs to be protected here. We can’t at any cost afford him to get booked and miss Emirates.We absolutely do not rest Rashford, Varane and Casemiro.
Rest them for 2 weeks after the Arsenal game when we play Cup games but definitely not now. Unbelievable to see the McFred suggestions.
I think the concern is Fred and Casemiro are at risk of being booked and missing the Arsenal game. On the balance of things we need them more for that game than this one.We absolutely do not rest Rashford, Varane and Casemiro.

Why Maguire? He’s 4th choiceMaguire, Martial and Antony all need to step up if we’re going to be contenders.
Yeah Casemiro can’t be risked. He needs a rest anyways and with the yellow situation this is the best chance.I think the concern is Fred and Casemiro are at risk of being booked and missing the Arsenal game. On the balance of things we need them more for that game than this one.
No. He's Varane's double. He never plays where Shaw, Martinez and Lindelof play for Ten Hag.Why Maguire? He’s 4th choice
How the feck has Fred got so many yellows, feels like he has hardly played this seasonI’m never a fan of the ‘rest all our best players’ brigade that dominates in every match thread but I do think Casemiro needs to be protected here. We can’t at any cost afford him to get booked and miss Emirates.
He’s always playing on the edge and flirting with yellow cards.
I’d go McT - Eriksen for old times’ sake. They were decent for a while until the City game happened. This protects Fred too who is also a card away from the ban.
Lindelof has definitely played on the right side before, but yes ETH has actively avoided using Maguire on the left so he replaces Varane more often. I just don't see him as "needing to step up" when he won't play most important games we have, while the other two players you mentioned are in our first choice starting XINo. He's Varane's double. He never plays where Shaw, Martinez and Lindelof play for Ten Hag.
