[Wing Attack Plan R]

0-10. Hat tricks from Garnacho, Højlund, and Rashford, with Onana running the length of the pitch with the ball to drill home for the 10th goal.

 

[RuudTom83]

Second half of the season begins. United should be in a good place mentally after the comeback win.

Need to get some consistency now and start climbing the table.

 

[OrcaFat]

Chance of Amad making bench maybe?

Yeah but must be a pretty low chance of him getting any minutes.

 

[croadyman]

Yeah but must be a pretty low chance of him getting any minutes.

Feel IF he could at least make the squad then has a chance of featuring against Wigan

 

[OrcaFat]

Feel IF he could at least make the squad then has a chance of featuring against Wigan

Yeah maybe. Think I read he might be loaned again in Jan…

 

[TwoSheds]

No - lowish block then look to break through the front 4. If Nes follows the Newcastle model, Elanga will play on which ever side is your slowest fullback.

I've a feeling we'll play Wan-Bissaka and Dalot again with Shaw at CB, so Wan-Bissaka would be the slower of the two but I'm not sure he'd give Elanga much change, it would only be balls over the top that would be the risk really.

 

[USREDEVIL]

Will probably be a slogfest since we were good the last half at OT against the villians.
Garnachos to score in the 72nd minute from a bruno pass. 1-0 red diablos.

 

[Gordon S]

Tough game. Forest will sit in and can counter with so much pace. Gibbs-White was outstanding today vs Newcastle.

Team picks itself.

Onana
AWB - Varane - Evans - Dalot
Mainoo - Eriksen
Garnacho - Bruno - Rashford
Hojlund​

I have watched Forest a handful of times this season and he stands out everytime for me. Talented player with a drive and dedication that i rarely see. He reminds me of a young Wazza the way he is fighting and pushing his teammates. Surprised there is no gossip about his future.

 

[Valencia Shin Crosses]

Yeah maybe. Think I read he might be loaned again in Jan…

That would be so stupid considering how toothless the attackers have been

I've learnt from months/years gone by: just because we get a good win, does not mean we have turned a corner.
I now expect, more than ever, for us to lose this game.

 

[Samid]

Looks like we’ll have Mount, Maguire, Martinez and Casemiro available after the international break. Will be a massive boost to the squad and I could see it propelling us back into the top 4 race and a shot at the fa cup.

The next international break is at the end of March.

 

[mav_9me]

Hopefully no McT again. 2nd half against Villa showed the template for pressing, energy, intensity and work rate.

 

[Doracle]

First time I’ve really looked forward to a match this season. Hopefully the same team as Villa but with Shaw returning if fit. Would be good to see Amad and Mount on the bench.

 

[OrcaFat]

That would be so stupid considering how toothless the attackers have been

As far as I know, he will be toothless also!

I would like us to have a look at him but I’m not expecting him to solve any problems really. Is he ahead of Rashford, Garnacho, Anthony, Pellistri? Some will say yes without even seeing Amad play but I doubt it, for the present, anyway.

 

[Giggsy13]

The next international break is at the end of March.

Why do we have only two games in January then? Thought it was break from January 14th to February 1st.

 

[USREDEVIL]

I don't think it can be clearer that McTominay is our new Fellani. We need ball controllers and winners in midfield of which he is neither.

Oh no Nana
AWB Varane Evans Shaw
Mainoo Eriksen
Bruno
Rashford Hojlund Garnachos

 

[didz]

Winter break

 

[Pughnichi]

Good point.

Put shaw in at cb with Varane and keep same fullbacks from villa win

 

[Samid]

Why do we have only two games in January then? Thought it was break from January 14th to February 1st.

2 week PL winter break (half the teams play one weekend, the other half the next). Plus one of the weekends is FAC 4th round so we'll have another game in January if we beat Wigan. And there are midweeks for 3rd round replays and Carabao semis.

 

[Red00012]

Onana
AWB Varane Shaw/Willy Reguilon
Mainoo Amrabat
Garnacho Bruno Rashford
Hojlund


Evans doesn't have the legs to play twice in a week...let Shaw slide to CB and give Sergio a run against Gibbs-White b/c i think Dalot would get caught out defensively against him OR Willy at CB to help deal with the size and strength of Woods and Shaw to LB on Gibbs-White

Eriksen doesn't have the legs to play twice in a week either....

No legs FC

 

[DJ_21]

Same line up as Villa. Let’s have a game where we start off brightly and score a couple of early goals to set the tempo. Can’t remember when we last had a game like that. The Everton away game was decent but we still got outplayed.

 

[DJ_21]

Needs sorting in the summer. We’ve got a lot of OAPs who can’t play multiple games together. Need some young fresh players with energy

 

[Oldyella]

Agreed. Shaw is only one who could come back in, but stick with the same team after a good performance!

 

[OrcaFat]

0-10. Hat tricks from Garnacho, Højlund, and Rashford, with Onana running the length of the pitch with the ball to drill home for the 10th goal.

I fancy a thunderbolt from Shaw. He hits a few rockets, one has to go in one day.

 

[Ayoba]

I've been let down too many times this season, too many false downs.

Fully expect us to lose here.

 

[bosskeano]

No legs FC

haha...oh hell we've been saying that for what feels like the past two years

 

[DJ_21]

Agreed. Shaw is only one who could come back in, but stick with the same team after a good performance!

Ye forgot about Shaw. Is he back for this game then?

 

[pacifictheme]

I’d go 11-0. Think ETH will volley the last one into the back of the net from his dugout

 

[Jeffthered]

We win again, a proper ding-dong battle. They score three, we score five. Rasmus and Garnacho score again. Neither team looks secure, but hey, who cares anymore! It's Christmas!

 

[DJ Jeff]

0-10. Hat tricks from Garnacho, Højlund, and Rashford, with Onana running the length of the pitch with the ball to drill home for the 10th goal.

Surely heading home his own cross?

The talk will definitely intensify IF Forest really get dragged into a relegation battle

 

[Dannn411]

4-2-3-1 with two deep lying midfielders, no Mctominay or Antony and we have a chance.

 

[Spark]

feck sake excited to watch us again so we’ll probably lose.

 

[Valencia Shin Crosses]

As far as I know, he will be toothless also!

I would like us to have a look at him but I’m not expecting him to solve any problems really. Is he ahead of Rashford, Garnacho, Anthony, Pellistri? Some will say yes without even seeing Amad play but I doubt it, for the present, anyway.

I mean he’s clearly better than Pellistri and Antony already on the fact that he’s a better finisher in front of goal. Doesn’t take much. If he did nothing else within the course of a game but put quality shots on target he’d be better.

International break?

Its where domestic and European football pauses while international games are played.

If there’s on thing we have an abundance of is quick energetic players - Yates and Dominguez as DM’s are relentless. MGW is all energy too.
