    Same :( it's such an anti climax, I hate that Mou rates him, this place would go in to meltdown if he was handed a new 4 year contract, it actually makes me nauseated at the thought
    He did bench him for quite a while when we started playing Pogba/Carrick/Herrera. I don't think he will ever consider him as a starter if he stays. I'm confident we will be looking to improve the midfield.
     
    Nerves are getting to me. A bad result here and no CL next season.
    Recent performances will give a cause for concern but I expect us to, at the very least do enough to get over the line over both legs, given their possible suspensions. It won't be pretty but it should be enough but that's only on paper as we all know too well.
     
    For those bashing Fellaini's inclusion; who would you play instead?

    Our options are so limited after selling Sneiderlin and letting Bastien go that he's the only option we have. Carrick is finished imo.
     
    Like that starting XI except for Shaw not playing .

    Good pace and I would like to see Carrick and Pogba in the midfield.
     
    I expect Shaw to be sold in the summer but if he starts tonight and against Chelsea with Valencia back in the starting lineup its a decent turnaround for him. Especially with Mourinho's full-back "philosophy" this season it would be a big sign of trust. Don't expect him to go forward as much as he did the last couple of games though.

    I hope he turns it around. A potent threat on the left and Valencia on the right would make so much difference to us.
     
    Welp, the leak got it wrong.

    Wonder if Mourinho is purposely spreading false information to weed them out.

    Apparently not.:) Great timing.
     
    Knee-jerking aside , it seems Jose will never play with 2 attacking full backs at the same time . He played Shaw the previous game probably because Valencia without present . Now the opposite .
     
    Sorry who the feck are you? If you were someone who I'd actually noticed on this forum I might care what you think


    I'm me, glad to meet you. Sorry you haven't noticed me before. I'll try harder as you sound very important. Thanks for taking the time to reply, bit confused as you replied, but don't care what I think. I was more musing of an observation on your match day posts, they're usually very depressing.
    In future, I'll let them slip into the usual sheep posts, the ones where they all harp on about a select group of players and have nothing positive to say.
    Have a great day, hopefully not on the Caf...
     
    Surprised at no Herrera (unless he had some suspension). Good attack though. Carrick and Pog are good enough though. Good to see Valencia back too.

    Leaked United side
    No suggestion this is the confirmed line-up for tonight:

    Starters

    Romero

    Valencia

    Bailly

    Rojo

    Shaw

    Fellaini

    Herrera

    Pogba

    Mkhitaryan

    Lingard

    Ibrahimovic

    Substitutes

    De Gea

    Darmian

    Fosu-Mensah

    Blind

    Carrick

    Rashford

    Martial

    Some decent options off the bench if United need an away goal (provided Martial and Rashford aren’t starting).


    The source of this 'leak' is rather pants!
     
    Weird line-up. I figured Fellaini today and then Carrick as part of a back 3 on Sunday. Lingard and Rashford in ahead of Martial is disappointing but expected at this point. Darmian at LB over Blind makes no sense, Blind is a much better LB so I guess Darmian will be operating as practically an extra CB instead so Valencia can push right up.
