    Matic Fellaini
    Lingard Pogba Martial
    Lukaku

    I want to see Pogba behind Lukaku now that Fellaini is back.
     
    Smalling has been playing well of recent though he had his moments against Stoke. I feel that DeGea needs to step up and control his box a lot more like Peter did. If he does shout at the defenders then they would not make as man mistakes as they make now.
     
    As much as I enjoyed Mata's performance against Stoke I think he's the obvious choice to be dropped for an extra midfielder, probably Herrera but could be Fellaini.

    After his performance with Everton away, really hoping it's Herrera.
     
    Think the TV lot are missing out not showing this. Will be a good game.
     
    Romero
    Lindelof Smalling Rojo Young
    Herrera Fellaini
    Mata Lingard Rashford
    Lukaku

    2-0 United.
     
    I'd like to see an unchanged XI for this one.
     
    If we manage to bring Sanchez in before the start of the Burnley game, i think we should start like this..

    De Gea
    Valencia- Smalling- Jones- Shaw
    Matic
    Sanchez-Pogba
    Mata-Lukaku-Rashford

    We can rock at Burnley!!
     
    They play 5 in midfield right? We should match them with 3 CM's.
     
    Burnley are a tough side not sure why people are suggesting weak sides. Should be:

    -----------------De Gea------------

    Valencia - Jones - Smalling - Shaw

    -------------------Matic--------------

    ---------Herrera------Pogba----------

    -------------------Lingard--------------

    ---------Lukaku------Martial----------

    Probably won't sign him in time to register for the first game anyway.
     
    Lukaku

    Martial - Sanchez

    Pogba ------------- Matic

    Shaw -----------------------------Valencia

    Jones - Smalling - Lindelof

    It's incredible that he is still allowed to officiate games at this level.

    This guy will still make ridiculous decisions even with VAR.

    He is the sole best argument for the inclusion of VAR in the Premier League.
     
    Love that people are including a player that we haven't even signed in lineups for a game 2 1/2 days away!

    De Gea
    Valencia Smalling Jones Shaw
    Matic Pogba Fellaini
    Lingard Lukaku Martial

    Subs: Romero, Rojo, Lindelof, Herrera, Mata, Rashford, Sanchez

    Shaw or Young is a tough one to call, think I would start Shaw so as not to ruin his confidence. Only other questions are whether to go 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1, and whether Sanchez will start. Think if we'd wrapped the deal up earlier he would have started but coming on as a sub seems more likely if the deal's not done til tonight or even tomorrow. 4-3-3 would be my preference for the formation but Mata in for Fellaini in a 4-2-3-1 wouldn't be terrible.
     
    Hope we can go and get the win. Burnley are tricky to break down so we need to attack as a team and do this together.
     
    If he's signed and cleared in time, Alexis Sanchez should definitely start.

    Going for a 2-1 win to United

    I would agree with this line up. A toss up between Herrera and Fellaini. We need a 3 man midfield so that Pogba can be more constructive.

    I don't agree. As good as he is, he shouldn't enter any team and start a game without a proper training.
     
    Pog, Rom & Martial please.

    With those 3 United will win the modernity of matches they play with ease.

    Since Dubai and Jose banter with Conte the team's spirits seem higher than they have been the last few months, so i can only see 3 points form this game.
     
    Would be embarassing and shamefull to draw or lose this and end the good mood and run we are in at the moment.
     
    City will slip up again soon so I just don't understand why people are so resigned to the title race. Yes City are heavy, heavy favourites and it's beyond crazy to think they'll completely bottle it - but even if our motivation is to cut the gap down to the minimum for the rest of the league season, then so be it.

    Need a win tomorrow to half make up for the slip up against them last month. Keep the momentum train ticking.
