I suffer delusions of grandeur
Come on United!
Something has to give. The "main" starting 11 cannot play every single game in call competitions.Very weird selection. I get that many players need a rest but many of the players in today have not played much let alone with each other.
The best thing about this lineup is seeing Greenwood in his rightful position. He made a name for himself in the academy as a striker, but he's had few opportunities to shine there since he broke into the first team.Greenwood must be chuffed. Finally gets a shot up front and had James and Lingard to either side of him.
You can't just throw 11 players together that have not been playing competitive football and expect them to be levels above even a championship side. Their timing will be off, they are not going to be in tune with their teammates and hardly going to be match fit. Expect a very disjointed ugly performance, not because they are not good enough.If they can’t be good enough to beat Watford at home then why are they even here ?
His loan expires at the end of this month.He might come on from the bench, later in the match.
When does his contract expire btw, anybody know?
Agreed.Bags of ability in the lineup and managed to practically rest everyone. Excellent squad management.
We’re playing against a Championship team who have also rotated... Nothing weird about this selection
Match thread being match thread within 60 secondsJames being James
we do, the FA banned himWasn’t a bad ball if we had a right winger.

League 1Lingard needs to show something here or he will be playing in the Championship next season.
