Hopefully Greenwood would have had a word about his lack of passing last time out. Was really poor from him.
Pogba's usually hopeless in there, but I'm totally expecting his defenders to blame it on McTominay if that happens.Pogba has to play in the middle. We have too many good attacking options to be playing him on the wing.
All our Midfielders are up and down in the middle. He is still the best of them as he can play football.
WBS on a ban shaw and Maguire injured. Who do you expect him to play.Telles is awful, Dalot not much better, and Lindelof is in there as well. Villarreal to score at least twice.
One thing that McTominay never does is to hide.Exactly, McTominay will just hide while Pogba is a liability defensively, they’ll cut us through with ease.
I yelled too when I saw the lineup!Yelled, Lindelof, Dalot, this should be a laugh, Varane must be absolutely trashed
6-5 to us.
Ah okay!Those are the CL squad rules, you can have 11 on the bench, but 2 of them have to be keepers.
(5 subs can be made).
Been our best player in the pivot this season in the few he has played.Pogba's usually hopeless in there, but I'm totally expecting his defenders to blame it on McTominay if that happens.
It’s actually one thing he does best as evident by his performances. He’s consistently the lowest ranked player in terms of passes / touches among our midfield players.One thing that McTominay never does is to hide.
That's the one thing he does doOne thing that McTominay never does is to hide.
nice to see. Lets see how the boys do. Come on United!Let’s goooo
Well he certainly has the balls
I wont.. think the line ups have been fine all season, had a few unlucky defeats and all hell breaks loose on the Cafe. Come on United!!Wonder how many posters will say the line up was shit IF we lose (but obviously wait til then as don't want to look foolish).
Hopefully a win and enough posts in here for another @Wumminator thread
Can we do small shots? I want to make it through the 2nd half.One round of shots for every time a Villareal player falls dramatically
Ah yes, Richard Dunne...City legend eh?Richard Dunne on Virgin saying we don't need two DMs today and shouldn't be playing Pogba there.
We are playing 4231 but we don't have any DMs on the pitch.
Oh god, I forgot about that skid stain. I hope to see him in tears by the end of the match, ideally.Alberto Moreno?
Well, we're playing against Moreno, Foyth, and old man Albiol.Lindelof, Dalot and Telles all at the back? what could possibly go wrong?
He's a good player. Certainly better than Fred and Matic. And whatever about his weaknesses, he certainly doesn't shirk responsibility.That's the one thing he does do
The amount of touches he has in midfield for us is criminal. He touches the ball far less than any of our midfielders.
That's surely what Sancho is here for?Never understand why Mata doesn’t play games like this. Pace isn’t going to do much against their low block so why not have a player with a reliable first touch and control? I suppose Fernandes has made himself undroppable which is a testament to his output.
Who else can we play in defense?Lindelof, Dalot and Telles all at the back? what could possibly go wrong?
I think that’s 3 good back ups we’ve got.Lindelof, Dalot and Telles all at the back? what could possibly go wrong?
You have a point there. It's not the PL and it's less physical than the PL.Never understand why Mata doesn’t play games like this. Pace isn’t going to do much against their low block so why not have a player with a reliable first touch and control? I suppose Fernandes has made himself undroppable which is a testament to his output.
McTominay's job is to sit behind Fred, whilst Fred presses aggressively in front of him. Given that Fred gets beaten more often than other DM in the league, United need that steady eddy insurance policy to collect the spillovers in front of defence. If McTominay went hunting for the ball like Pogba or Fred, there'd be nobody left in midfield.That's the one thing he does do
The amount of touches he has in midfield for us is criminal. He touches the ball far less than any of our midfielders.
