Get big Fellaz and Pogz at the back post to try and expose Azplicueta just like Alli did at White Hart Lane.

Simon stone has tweeted that Rashford has flown into London for the game.

I'm sure now that everyone and his dog has been talking about this since that game, they would have been doing work on the training field to counter/fix the weakness by now

Janson · Mar 13, 2017

De Gea, Valencia, Bailly, Rojo, Darmian, Carrick, Herrera, Pogba, Fellaini, Young, Mikhi.

Edit: My prediction.

The thing is, you can work on it until the cows come home, stopping it; however, is a whole different thing.

I dont get this obsession from Treble of Chelsea fans thanking Mourinho for the past. I just dont understand it. Thats like saying Mourinho should go thank Abramovich etc for putting him firmly on the footballing map lol

shamans · Mar 13, 2017

Really hope Fellaini plays upfront as a Target man. He did for Everton with a lot of success.

pocco · Mar 13, 2017

If Rashford is in then hopefully there's a chance Martial is too.

No pressure Marcus.

Brightonian · Mar 13, 2017

To be fair, Rashford with a chest cold would move at about the speed of a normal human, right?

It'd be hilarious if Mourinho was bluffing and we started with a front three of Roo, Rashford and Martial. Less so when we lose 4-0 because Chelsea are better than us even without Rooney fecking everything up.

SqueakyWeasel · Mar 13, 2017

If Fellaini is starting tonight I'll seriously worry for the rest of our season.

We can make a fist of this with the faster, more creative "footballers" we have and if we lose … so fecking what? But start Fellaini and our whole game-plan has to change and will revolve around a guy that goes missing 60% of the time and spends the other 40% making fans eat their nails to the second knuckle – just because he can take a long ball on his chest extremely well!

caisenma · Mar 13, 2017

today is a fantastic day for pogba to give us a lift offensively. i predict big things for him today... perhaps two goals.

yup, two goals for pogba today.

Are you sure you want to start with 6 midfield players?

Is what the prediction said to me

If Rashford does play tonight, 100% Jose mindgames and nobody will have 11/11

Agreed. Put him back in then took him out again just before the cut-off.

Given that his shooting accuracy is really bad (and I mean, really really really bad), I struggle to understand what logic you used to arrive at the conclusion that Pogba can score 2 goals in 1 game?
Genuine question.

CONTRASTING SCHEDULES THIS TERM
Trivia: This is United's 46th match of the season in all competitions and that is 12 more than Chelsea, who are preparing to play their 34th fixture. The Blues are not in Europe, of course, and that has allowed them to concentrate solely on domestic matters.

No Idea For Nickname said:
But Mourinho has made it clear that securing Champions League football next season is a must - which means the Cup could prove too much of a distraction.

“For me it’s just a game that comes in the wrong moment for us,” said the United manager. “Because the Europa League is a competition that can give us a Champions League spot, and the FA Cup, it isn’t.

"So the Europa League is more important than the FA Cup for us."

At least the manager have sense unlike some purist on here who believe FA Cup has more value than Europa League.

Jacko21 · Mar 13, 2017

I don't get the whole mind-games theory.

Chelsea have no reason to be perturbed by whether a 19 year old starts up front for us or not. Or indeed whether we are striker-less. It's not going to effect their preparations or their approach in any way, shape or form.

Rashford was ill and therefore didn't travel with the team yesterday. He perked up today and made his way to London. Simple as.

We'll lose no doubt about it.

Another side plot - Will the classless and ungrateful Chelsea fans give Mourinho a more respectful reception this time around?

No. We are going to spit on him and throw pies at him.

Wing backs?
Suggestion is Valencia and Darmian as the wing backs.

Suggestion is #mufc will be playing wing backs with Rashford up front. Formation could see a defender pushed into midfield.

Whatever team plays let's just hope they play in the right spirit, fight for every ball, and approach the game with high intensity. We need to exploit the weakness of Alonso and Moses on the flanks. We need to press them like crazy and mark Hazard out of the game. Every single time he touches the ball he needs to be surrounded by a sea of red shirts. Foul them if we must. Blood and guts are what we need. Overwhelm them. It has to be a shock and awe approach, the likes of which they never expected. Pressure for 90 mins and beat them into submission.

Hopefully this time their fans will show a bit more respect for Mourinho who they ought to be grateful for. But if they insist on disrespecting him then maybe respect will need to be beaten into them. Goal after goal landing in their net. That will teach them to bloody appreciate what others have done for them.

I don't understand how this is suppose to be a mind game, the manager did not say a word about his squad.

Mourinho had won the Uefa Cup and the CL before he went to Chelsea. I would say he was already on the football map

If we are playing wing backs, our best pair is Valencia, Shaw.
