Southampton next - team?

[Catt]

Might as well

Ok

 

[DRM]

Ok

Glad you agree

It's a crazy idea but how about a balanced side that that plays to our best strengths of what we have.

------------------ de gea
----bissaka--maguire-tuanzebe or smalling
dalot--mctominay---pogba--shaw
---------------------gomes
---------------martial---rashford

You could even consider James replacing either dalot or shaw as a wingback because along with his pace he has shown the work rate to track back. I'm not sold on Maguire and lindelof in the same central defence with both lacking pace and ain't world class defensively to make up for it either.

This works. Doubt ole changes system never mind personnel at the back though.

James in for shaw (who’s likely injured anyway)

 

[Sylar]

Imagine we see young smalling matic and Mata all starting

 

[r3idy]

Cant see Lindelof being dropped because of one mistake in one game. Does anyone remember when Bruce and Pally first started playing together? A partnership with Maguire will take time. Moreover I HOPE he doesn't get dropped because that's exactly the kind of sh*t that Jose would do.

Midfield is the real conundrum area. I think next weeks midfield will depend on Martials fitness. If he is fit then I expect Matic to get a start with McTominay holding allowing Pogba to work further up the pitch. If Martial is injured then I expect that Lingard will remain in the side.

If only they had a special matchday Forum on here where everyone could post their suggestions for lineups.

 

[::sonny::]

Smalling and Rojo are better than Linedolf, in the air and marking

 

[Kentish]

DDG
AWB Lindelof Maguire Dalot
Fred McTominay

[DRM]

I don't.

Ok

 

[ToToMarshall]

have we heard anything about Martial and Shaw's fitness?

 

[Bilbo]

For the next one I'd just replace Lingard with Mata.

Pogba should be our number 10 for now but I completely agree with putting him alongside McTominay because Matic looks finished

 

[Lentwood]

GK - Romero
LB - Shaw
RB - AWB
CB - Lindelof
CB - Maguire
CM - McTominay
CM - Pogba
AMC - James
AML - Greenwood
AMR - Rashford
ST - Martial

Smalling is certainly better in the air... and that's it. Keep Lindelof in.

I agree with whoever said only change should be Gomes for Lingard. Only other change I might make is Greenwood for James, but James played very well as a starter this weekend.

That said, I'm not sure Shaw will be ready. I thought Young played decently in his place, for once. *ducking and running from the stones headed my way*
