Also a bit concerning that Ten Hag wants us to permanently sign Amrabat but he's not good enough to start ahead of a kid.

Amrabats fault for not being good enough to start ahead McT for the last 5 weeks.

 

[mu4c_20le]

Is Varane injured or something?

Maguire is just that much better

 

[BootsyCollins]

Antony not even on the bench?

He overestimated the quality of the player. We definitely won’t be signing Amrabat on a permanent.

 

[Manncunian]

Am I missing something, but what’s happened to Højlund?

 

[Alemar]

Interesting starting XI

 

[mitchmouse]

injured

 

[DJ_21]

Hopefully Martial plays like he’s got a point to prove

 

[RedPed]

Come on Tony! Your time to shine. I don't know how Dalot is ahead of Wan-Bissaka.

 

[Ayoba]

Is Varane injured or something?

Ten Hah fallen out with him.

 

[DomesticTadpole]

Antony not even on the bench?

Nope.

 

[hobbers]

£10m loan for Amrabat and doesnt start when most of the midfield is injured. Embarrassing for ETH.

Also where is Antony

 

[christinaa]

Yes we should win. Without doubt we should win this game.

Why?

 

[mitchmouse]

interesting team - shame Hojilund isn't fit: martial probably won't even have a shot on target

 

[Walters_19_MuFc]

I actually think ten Hag would have started with Mainoo come the start of the season had he not picked up an injury during pre-season.

 

[Manncunian]

injured

When did this happen? Urgh. How did I miss that, it’s fecked up my predictions

 

[AngliaRed]

Hundreds of millions spent and Martial and Rashford still leading the line.

Joke

 

[bosnian_red]

Also a bit concerning that Ten Hag wants us to permanently sign Amrabat but he's not good enough to start ahead of a kid.

Does he want us to sign him permanently if he's not starting him? It's a loan with option, not obligation.

 

[Damien]

Probably my first correct predicted XI this season, been an absolute disaster.

 

[BeforeKeanetherewasRobson]

Hopefully Martial plays like he’s got a point to prove

I hope so too.

But after nearly a decade, I’m not holding out much hope to be honest.

Though Everton is his ‘favourite’ opponent.

 

[Shiva87]

Confidence from Ten Hag there to give Mainoo a start straight away.

hopefully this works out. Rooting for the kid today!
(Could be a bad gamble but that’s for later)

 

[Walters_19_MuFc]

interesting team - shame Hojilund isn't fit: martial probably won't even have a shot on target

Fun fact: Martial has the same amount of EPL goals Hojlund has.

 

[Red Royal]

Come on Mainoo!!

 

[crossy1686]

Yeah, that's still slightly depressing though isn't it?

I think it shows how much faith people have in us and which direction they think we're going.

 

[BootsyCollins]

Nope.

Strange. I have not heard anything about him being out.

 

[RedRonaldo]

Great Mainoo finally starts!

 

[bosnian_red]

Be interesting to see how Garner does

 

[arnoldS]

Why?

What do you mean why? They are shite. Yes we are not in top form but we still have to win this without a doubt.

 

[RedRocket9908]

Not sure about that starting XI he has chosen, im glad Mainoo is getting a start though

 

[NotoriousISSY]

Interesting line up.

Not delighted to see McTominay and Lindelof but otherwise I get it.

 

[Unam333]

Ten Hah fallen out with him.

Maguire is just that much better

Fricking annoying if he has fallen out with the manager. I always thought he was a professional. He's also a better defender than Maguire and Lindelof imo.

 

[crossy1686]

Why?

Because we're a miles better side than perennial relegation threatened Everton, or at least we should be, even with some injuries. If we're not then you really have to ask what the hell the manager has managed to do to this team in the last 18 months.

 

[Shiva87]

Ten Hah fallen out with him.

nope - I don’t believe it. I think he will come back in the moment Martinez is fit again. It’s more of a combination issue than a fall out issue in my mind.

Varane hasn’t done well with a passive defender like Maguire or Lindelof playing with him (where they expect him to be the aggressor). He does well with an aggressive partner (always has)

 

[3KDré]

Does he want us to sign him permanently if he's not starting him? It's a loan with option, not obligation.

Maybe. I actually think he's not that bad. Him and Mainoo would be a good pairing.

 

[Martin(6)Buchan]

Martial will probably pull his hamstring tying his boot laces before they kick off

 

[MiracleInMadrid]

Scott has to take charge defensively in there today. We need his physicality. Especially with that back pairing ventrally who usually doesn’t step up into the midfield when defending

 

[Jev]

Fricking annoying if he has fallen out with the manager. I always thought he was a professional. He's also a better defender than Maguire and Lindelof imo.

How many players does the manager have to fall out with before you start questioning his responsibility?

 

[laughtersassassin]

Fun fact: Martial has the same amount of EPL goals Hojlund has.

Fun Fact Hojlund is the top goalscorer in the CL.

 

[Andycoleno9]

10 mil for one year's loan for Amrabat (who is now literally last option in midfield). Blimey

 

[crossy1686]

Scott has to take charge defensively in there today. We need his physicality. Especially with that back pairing ventrally who usually doesn’t step up into the midfield when defending

We get more joy out of Scotty when he's crashing the box. He's not a DM by any stretch of the imagination and it's dangerous to play him there.
