    Elanga again, what the feck does that say about Rashford or Sancho. Bloody hell those 2 are England internationals and they can't get a start v Brentford? Wtf has happened to them they must be showing feck all on the training pitch, that dosent boad well. Maguire must be not fit enough, this is a tough game, RR hasn't been afraid to drop the favs has he . Let's see long fecking night coming up my guess hope not . Comfy 2 nil for UTD.

    Calm down. Sancho might bei injured and Rashford missed the last game through Injury as well. Elanga performed well so it is the 100% correct thing to do for RR to let Elanga keep his place and not put Rashford straight back in. (as Ole did all the time with several players).

    You have to deserve your place through good performances when given the chance. I think the message should have reached the whole squad now and that can only be a good thing.
     
    No Sancho for “personal reasons” make of that what you will.
     
    Greenwood and Elanga cant be your secondary creators. We will just have to endure till subs are made I guess.

    Have you seen Rashford this year? He hasn’t shown anything in actual games, so his training pitch performance shouldn’t really worry you.

    Rangnick said Sancho is always among the best in training. Said his struggles are a mental issue.
     
    I was impressed with Elanga the other night, so it's great to see Elanga starting tonight. Mctominay being back is another plus as he and Fred have looked good under Rangnick.

    We'll win this one for sure, no doubt.
     
    Sticking my neck out here but we’ll
    Win this 1-4 (and Elanga will score)

    We all know Bruno won't be a number 8, even though he's meant to. He'll do what he always does and play almost as a 2nd striker, and consequently McFred won't have passing options and a press will dispossess us.

    can't argue with it likely playing out like this. Sad as it is the best midfield if they are setting up in a legit 4-3-3 with a DM and 2 box to box players is Matic Fred and McTominay.

    Im not sold on Matic. His lack of speed far outweighs his ability to hold/ control the ball. I see him as a liability unless we are the attacking side. Once we swtich to a defense mentality ... its over for us.
     
    Probably the best team we can field at the moment to be honest.

    Maguire and Rashford on the bench is doing wonders to my health already.
     
    Looking forward to this. Feel good

    Before we even knew who was taking over most were saying a continental type manager would drop maguire. Can't complain when a manager drops players who are playing shit

    Fred isn’t an 8 and never will be. Shit on the ball. But I suppose we have to make do (while Donny sits on the bench ffs).

    Fred most definitely is an 8. The problem is McTominay is too.
     
    Why is it so hard for some to believe that this IS 433? We still have the same squad, we won't be having prime Xavi and Iniesta suddenly appearing in red shirts just because Ralf decides to go 433.
     
    This is a huge statement to the likes of Rashford, Beek, Maguire and Shaw. All of them rightfully not picked.

    We can still play 433 if Bruno is instructed to stay close to Fred and both close to McT.

    No we can't, Bruno is no midfielder. It's sacrificing his best skills to get 0,5 of actual midfielder. Makes no sense, I thought we already learned that's not a solution both short and long term.

    De Bruyne was quite similar to Bruno once upon a time. Good players can adapt and change their role.

    probably because of Bruno.
