Levitt likely to be on the bench? How is the squad?
James and Rashford are both the kind of wingers who are weak in the box (esp. James). Rashford has played as a CF, but he's pretty bad at it, especially if he's playing alone in that position. How can we ever score with this setup? James had troubles serving Martial, against Villa, who is he going to cross to in the box, with this setup?Wouldn't mind this:
DDG
AWB - Maguire - Tuanzebe
Laird - McTominay - Fred - Shaw
Lingard
James - Rashford
But will obviously be Lindelof+Pereira for Laird+McT/Lingard.
This makes most sense considering who we have available and the setup Ole has played, but he won't do this because he still doesn't trust youth for 90 minutes. He will use Lingard and Mata or some such shit, instead.Anyways:
De Gea
AWB Axel Maguire Shaw
Pereira Fred Garner
James Greenwood "Rashy"
This is a fairly poor side but that's not my fault!
We have to have James in the side. Basically we play a counter attacking system and without his speed, we're fecked. Rashford also provides speed on the other wing but ideally we have two options. Our central play is laughable at best with people like Pereira and Fred "passing."James and Rashford are both the kind of wingers who are weak in the box (esp. James).

If we are playing two CFs upfront, at least it should be Rashford - Greenwood.
Jesus shamoly that team. Hundreds of millions to get you that. At what bastid point do the Glazers look at this team and decide Woodward might not be the man for the job? Not a criticism of your team @USREDEVIL, I'd go for that as well, but hell's bells it's dire.Anyways:

Right, which is why I like your system more, with Rashy and James on the wings and Greenwood instead of Martial in the center, but Ole refuses to play like that. Very annoying. We fecking lose all the time anyway, could at least give real chance to Greenwood and Garner, for a change and see what happens. Worst case - we will lose... but we do anyway, so WTFWe have to have James in the side. Basically we play a counter attacking system and without his speed, we're fecked.

Glazers cannot tell how many players you need on the field, without googling it. They don't know crap. All they look at is revenue and profit numbers.Jesus shamoly that team.

no McT?No Pogba, Martial or Mctominay.
This game is officially Ole's first real test.
1 error? The kid had a horrible game. He dives inn a lot, leaving his teammates exposed when he misses a tackleWatching Sundays games in Old Trafford I found it a little odd that Martial was taken with 10 minutes to go.
Very important player but he's so injury prone. I foressee a back five played v Spurs which Jose will be delighted with, Williams maybe dropped for that one error Sunday while Ashley Error Young restored to the starting line up.
Spurs have been as bad if not worse than us recently. Yes they have a bit of a new manager bounce. But they have shipped 4 goals in their last two games against Bournemouth and Hammers. They are still fragile at the back but their attack is really starting to click. Alli looks back to his old self and with Kane and Son up top will always be a threat.0-4
They got the new managers bounce and we will back to struggling for 1 goal. Ole will be gone by next week.
Yes the one error that led to a goal. Anyone that has watched Williams at youth level knows it's his eagerness to win tackles rather than rushing in. Young and learning instead past it like Ashley Young.1 error? The kid had a horrible game. He dives inn a lot, leaving his teammates exposed when he misses a tackle
Shaw is available. Why will Young start?Yes the one error that led to a goal. Anyone that has watched Williams at youth level knows it's his eagerness to win tackles rather than rushing in. Young and learning instead past it like Ashley Young.
Hammers shipped 2 goals against us too.....Spurs have been as bad if not worse than us recently. Yes they have a bit of a new manager bounce.

Dier has looked Dire, Rose has looked like he doesnt give a toss and with Davies injured he is first choice LB. And the CB's have been average to poor. If Hammers can score two against them surely we can grab a couple at home.
I’m sure I see this sentence in every single match day threadNo Pogba, Martial or Mctominay.

Shaw after his injury lay off looked well rusty v Astana. I don't want Young near the starting team but I fear he'll be given the nod to start this game.Shaw is available. Why will Young start?
Place him in a room where he has to listen to Michael Owen for 24 hours a day for a year.I genuinely think 'fans' that post shit like this should receive some sort of punishment. At the moment I'm stuck on execution + blasting their remains into orbit but am open to suggestions.
To be fair he's just lost his striker again and has a thread bare midfield. Being forced into a back 3 rather than wanting to play it.Oh great, 3 at the back tonight and probably in the derby. Defensive, disjointed football whilst hoping to nick a goal. Yet Ole claims that the fans he speaks to are happy with the work being done.
Just wait till they play Chelsea. Doubt the crowd will be as respectfulFair play Jose in the interview shown on Amazon there. He was very respectful about us. He seems chirpier. As we know, it always starts that way, but it's nice to see him like that again.
McTom is supposed to be back?No Pogba, Martial or Mctominay.
