    Thats exactly the team I would have put if I havent missed putting a lineup prediction.
     
    I'd be vomiting with nerves if I saw Zlatan on the team sheet. He batters this side every time he plays them.
     
    Thank goodness they didn't get an away goal. Should be a good game. Can't wait.
     
    If he had put BFS and Lingard there would be cries too. Its a tough away game despite our result.
     
    My mighty God, who is a fecking possibility that The Tree is getting a starting spot once again? How come Fellaini is still a United player?

    I would rather have Zaha, Bellion or even Cleverley back in the team instead of Fellaini. Dreadful player and horrible technique.
     
    Third game in a row DDG is being rested. Jose quietly putting a statement there that Man Utd are not as reliant on him anymore.
     
    Let's hope Fellaini does better in this game than last time. He couldn't handle their pass + move football before.
     
    Surprisingly strong team, hope we can get that one crucial away goal and start resting poggers, zlat and mkhi.

    Well the first match was a difficult one, despite the result showing the opposite.

    They made it difficult in the sense that they ran around a lot and pressed us well, but they lacked any real quality on the ball.

    I'd be pretty shocked if they managed to win by 3 goals... regardless of what lineup we put out.

    We also need to maintain momentum. We're on a great run of form and it would be counter productive to jeopardise that by not taking a game seriously enough.

    That too. And we have more than enough time to prepare and rest for the final.
     
    Good strong lineup. Hopefully we score early and then take Pogba and Ibra off at HT. Playing with 10 men won't be easy as we saw in the first leg though :)
     
    3-0 up surely could've rested zlatan here.
     
    Fellaini starting is shit. His last performance was so bad, he should be made to earn his place back in the side.

    Not sure about risking Pogba & Zlatan - would've preferred them on the bench & only playing if necessary. Was hoping TFM would've got a chance to play.
     
    St. Etienne have a free hit to come and attack us, they are going to go all out attack, for that reason we have left decent players in the forward positions to try and expose them at the other end and also played a very defensive midfield, with strong options at the back. If it goes to plan we will be strolling around the park passing like the last ten minutes against Blackburn but for a longer period of time. Unless we start terribly this is going to be an awful game.

    Feck... Carrick, Pogba, Mkhi, Mata and Zlatan all starting? Seems a bit much!

    Jose doesn't feck about in the knock-out stages of cup competitions. Interesting the way he seems to be prioritising this higher than the FA Cup. I guess that's the reality re how far the latter has fallen in estimation. Just don't tell the beeb. It will break their little hearts...

    On a side note, the comments re the line-up are hilariously predictable.

    "OMG, why is he picking x? He's fecking useless!"

    "WTF?! Why has he picked such a strong team? Doesn't he know we've a cup final at the weekend?"

    Does. Not. Compute...

    No. We have a keeper for the league and a keeper for the cups. We have had three cup games in a row, that's the only statement.
     
    My line up predictions for cup games have been horrendous this season.
