No Kane?

 

[Keanes Magic Hat]

The best we could of hoped for, need big games from Amrabat and Hojlund

No Kane?

He's giving Musiala a piggy back.

Had to replace Schweinsteiger somehow.

 

[United Hobbit]

Also has completely frozen out Mainoo just like he did Hannibal it seems. Lovely. Brilliant man manager that Erik

Yet continually plays Rashford, Mctominay, Bruno et al

 

[RedSky]

It's ok guys, Alphonso Davies is starting and he's not a great defender. Games in the bag.

[Donut]

This guy never learns from his mistakes, again with the 1 man midfield.

 

[GreatDane]

Remember when we had control of the midfield? Yeah, me neither.

 

[TheGame]

Yet continually plays Rashford, Mctominay, Bruno et al

Yeah because he's been playing last couple of games, hasn't he?

 

[Shiva87]

Decent line up that. Only complaint is MCT over Mainoo but that is understandable because of the goal scoring form.

hopefully we scrape a win here. Don’t care about the other result, if we get through because of them it’s a massive bonus and very undeserved.

hopefully we get a few weeks with a manager coaching the team (if we drop out of Europe entirety). Worst outcome would be to drop into the Europa

 

[Ludens the Red]

Ahh the No midfield system. Can’t wait to see Mctominay and Bruno lose ground duels and then Amrabat having to chase three midfielders running towards our goal. Wouldn’t be a United game without that.

 

[RedUnited86]

Also has completely frozen out Mainoo just like he did Hannibal it seems. Lovely. Brilliant man manager that Erik

He's the worst manager we've had in the last 10 years.

 

[Yagami]

I don't know what's worse. Dalot continuing to start over AWB, starting the same midfield or our lack of game changers on the bench.

Comfortable 1-0 win, then.

Kimmich, Goretzka absolutely bombing into that open space and Musiala and Kane hovering around the isolated DM. Fantastic.

And then they have pace all through the wings to pin us back or exploit any open space we leave.

You could have Rijkaard sitting there and not be able to push back the tide by himself. Instead, we have Amrabat...

If we're going to die, let's go out like drunks stumbling out of Witherspoon's on a Friday night.

 

[luke511]

Musiala, Goretzka, Kimmich vs Bruno, McTominay, Amrabat

Yawn

 

[cj_sparky]

Wide open in midfield again, at some point ten Hag needs to go stronger in there.

McTominay might have offered goals in his current run, but the rest of his game is well below standard.

really hoping that Bayern play this like a training exercise and we get a win because they are sloppy. Don’t see another way we get through this one

 

[ShinjiNinja26]

Very disappointed not to see Mainoo start. I know he’s a young kid but it’s clear to see he’s one of our best midfielders already and possesses the composure and passing ability in the middle of the park that McTominay sorely lacks. Prepare to be sliced open at will yet again.

 

[RedUnited86]

He must want the sack. It's the only reason for persisting with this single pivot bullshit. The guy is an absolute tool.

 

[cj_sparky]

TNT with some ominous sounding music akin to the SAW franchise.

 

[The Firestarter]

I dont understand why is Mainoo not playing ? It would be a great game to experience for him, chances of us going through are semi existent , better try something different which we could use in the PL as well.

 

[acnumber9]

9 of the 11 chinned by Bournemouth start again. And we’re supposed to believe this manager just needs more time.

 

[Chicharo]

No Mainoo again... feck this

 

[RedUnited86]

As if. That would involve some forward thinking from the manager.

It is not McTominay. I would say that Fernandes need to calm down little with his running all over place. He is warrior but need to be more central. I don't know if it is tenHag who said to him to run freely or not. But he needs to be a link between McTominay and Amrabat. Fernandes need to trust our wide players to do their job so he can concentrate at his own job.

 

[always_hoping]

So Varane can now play along side Maguire? Bayern have gone with their strongest available starting 11 with top place already secured hmm..

 

[Leftback99]

The difference in the two lineups

 

[Delano]

This guy never learns from his mistakes, again with the 1 man midfield.

Refuses to change.

Aside from Mainoo, who else would you start?

They just got heavily beaten on the weekend. This will be a serious game for them. A statement game.

Musiala should be tipped for a game of the season as he'll have all the space in the world to play in.

We would struggle against Kane and Musiala in that pocket with 2 proper midfielders and a proper CB pairing, let alone a slow and immobile player in Amrabat and a backline that knows not to push up. There's going to be so much space to play in and around.

Would love to be proven wrong. Don't want to watch a massacre.

 

[Lay]

Why are Bayern taking this so seriously

 

[Judas]

I can’t say I’m very hopeful.

 

[KiD MoYeS]

We have 5% chance of going through I think.
Maybe 15% chance of going into Europa.
And 80% chance of going out of Europe completely, doing Ratcliffe proud.

 

[RedUnited86]

What's that saying about doing the same thing again and again and expecting a different result?

He's insane.

 

[Sparky Rhiwabon]

Also has completely frozen out Mainoo just like he did Hannibal it seems. Lovely. Brilliant man manager that Erik

Mainoo is not going to be starting every game at his age

 

[Sandikan]

The whinging in here as if we've left out a peak Keane Vieira midfield combo or something.

 

[RedSky]

Why are Bayern taking this so seriously

Well, it's their winter break in 3 games time. They just got beaten 5-1 and won't want to lose two in a row. Also the below...

Spoiler

 

[acnumber9]

Aside from Mainoo, who else would you start?

Wan Bissaka at the very least.

 

[FerociousCorgis]

The whinging in here as if we've left out a peak Keane Vieira midfield combo or something.

think it is more the fact that we have seen the midfield look like absolute shit and yet things dont seem to be changing much in there.
