Based on what? A few pre season matches? Did you also want vidic and evra out after their first few games where they looked awful?

I'm actually sort of happy to see him on Tuesday, not because of the Stoke match but I want him to be tested in some game where shit matters more than a pre-season.
Not based on performances but I still maintain as I did when we signed him that He was an utterly pointless signing near enough to €40 million for a player we don't even need.
We should've used that cash elsewhere at fullback or RW.

No based on that I have watched him at Benfica and dont think he is anything special.
Fair enough. Thought you were going off his performances for us.
In that case: Lindelof Out!
I want to see his abilities of building up the play and nice passes from the back in the CL game. We brought him for this reason so he should be doing it.
I'm optimistic. We certainly need to strengthen at the back. But we could have gotten bonucci for the same fee. And would have instantly improved us
Bonucci wanted to stay in Italy.
No, he deserves his chance as every new player does. And he will get it too sooner or later. But from what I have seen, I think he is a bit average myself. Not really too good defensively, bit passive, weak, not particularly fast or good in the air, decent on the ball. Might as well kept Johnny Evans.
Mourinho says Jones and Bailly should be worried about Lindelof. Let's just hope he gets over this adaptation period fast.
Awaiting his performnce tomorrow. Hope he has a good day, i will be watching closely and tearing him apart if he disappoints 
Man Utd 3:0 Basel
Very nervous and frankly dodgy performance.
Care to explain?
Nah he was pretty good, except that tackle that was almost penalty.
I didn't even think that was as close to a penalty as the commentators made it seem.
looked very nervous with the ball under very very little pressure the whole game, not aggressive enough when the ball went into the bo and then threw himself to the ground to give away a sure penalty if the striker didn't get up.
It wasn't. People like to overblow shit with Lindelof ever since that idiotic tackle against Madrid.
Very good game from him, good on the ball, don't think he put a foot wrong either.
It's weird how much commentators are led by narratives and how much they feed them too.
He was perfectly decent today, nothing particularly special, nothing particularly bad because he had virtually nothing to do.
Yet the commentators were banging on about him looking a bit dodgy and having loads to do to get up to standard and stuff which must have been based on the fact that he has been left out recently.

Owen Hargreaves wasn't impressed and he usually thinks every player in incredible.
Looks like a liability at the moment. Hopefully he improves.
Good game from him, though there were couple of dodgy moments. His distribution is good.
Some of his passing was very good.
He was fine. Don't understand why Hargreaves was so critical.

On the ball he looks good, defensively though jury is well and truly out
Only thing I didn't care for was the 1 cross in the 2nd half he didn't challenge for in the air with any conviction against van Wolfswinkel.
I think we'll see him show more on the ball as he gets comfortable.
Still needs time, would not be confident with him starting in the PL
Only seen the second half, could have given away a pen and got beaten very easoly by ElYounoussi after Matic' mistake, looked decent otherwise.
It was a good game for him. Will get better and better. Jose knows his defenders.
It's going to take Jose alot of work to make him into a half decent player.
Yup, if a player goes down ages after a player makes the tackle then the referee will most likely not blow the whistle as more often than not it's clear that it's the attacking player who manufactured the contact. He was fine, although I don't think we'll see him for a while.
I'd prefer to see Ax playing.
He wrapped some nice passes into the forwards and overall it was a decent first game for him, granted it's hard to judge against such opposition.
Yeah, Jose is easing him in so it's fine for me, probably see him against Burton.
Good performance I think. More of the same I hope. Him and Smalling played well.
Why don't we hire him as chief scout as you value his opinion highly?
good game from him, he still needs to improve more. only wish the best
I ain't in charge of recruitment at OT sadly.
I thought he did fine tonight. Very impressed with his passing again.
Agree here. There's definitely a narrative being built around him as was the case when De Gea first came over here where everything is scrutinized.
All in all Lindelof had a couple of dodgy moments but one good tackle.
For all the things to criticize him for...
He had a good game, that tackle was nowhere near a penalty.
