    Apart from hammering a league two side they haven't really shot the lights out at home.

    Whereas United have been spectacular away all season.
     
    League cup. Don't care. Hope to see the kids..

    Would be nice if we got through.. more chances of seeing the kids.
     
    League cup.

    Field an XI which need to gain experience, such as Garner. Protect in wool cloth those players we need fit and rested against Bournemouth on Saturday.

    Agreed. Europa League is more useful
     
    Will both be under-strength i should think, will make for an open game.

    That's all we have! The squad is shockingly thin. It *is* The LC, isn't it for playing kids? But it's not like we have many senior players to bring in anyway!
     
    This isn't what I particularly want, it's what I accept:

    -----------------------------DDG----------------------------------
    ---------------Jones-------Maguire---------Rojo-----------------
    AWB-------------------------------------------------------Williams
    ---------------McTominay---------------Fred----------------------
    ------------------------------Mata----------------------------------
    --------------James--------------------------Rashford------------

    SUBS - Martial (Mata), Pereira (James), Greenwood (Rashford)

    Chelsea 3 - 2 Man United
    Rashford and Martial for us.

    Cheers. So it wasn't just me.
     
    It’d be good to win this to keep up the momentum but I really think the likes of Rashford, Maguire, McTominay, James and to a degree Martial, need resting.

    Would really like to see Garner, Williams, Greenwood and possibly Gomes, if he’s fit, get starts.

    Laird Tuanzabe Jones Williams​

    Lingard Garner Fred​

    Now we're safe from relegation(phew) we should go as strong as possible @ Chelsea hopefully keeping the momentum going then worry about who is fit and available for Bournemouth @ 12:29 on the Saturday.

    That, or throw a load of kids in.

    Sir Alex won it 4 times, if it's good enough for him then we should take it seriously.

    Full strength team and get to the quarter finals. It's potentially our best chance of winning something.

    Players need to get back into the habit of lifting trophies
     
    Ole needs every victory he can get his hands upon

    We are not conceding three, it's not going to happen. Think we will win the game, or go home ruing what could have been a victory.

    No we ain’t. We haven’t reached 40 points yet. ;)
     
    So apparently this is a game that happened in the not too distant past.



    Why don't I remember a single thing about a game we lost 5-4?!

    I remember it quite well! We actually did okay and were winning up until we gave away a penalty in the last few minutes and our young squad just couldn't cope with the extra time. Think it was Keane who gave away the penalty. Pretty sure this game was very shortly after the one where we won 3-2 and Chelsea were down to 9 men.

    See this game I remember as if it was yesterday... both red cards, Hernandez's offside goal etc.

    This 5-4 though.... nothing. Not even that peach of a goal Nani scored.

    Did Lingard have an older brother playing for us? Or did we have him on the subs bench when he was 12 or something?

    Alas, that's our very own Lingard... his fashion empire just a twinkle his eye at that point.
     
    CHELSEA TEAM NEWS: OLE HINTS AT YOUTHFUL SIDE
    Ole Gunnar Solskjaer says a number of young players could get the nod in Manchester United’s Carabao Cup fourth-round tie against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday night.

    Brandon Williams and James Garner are among those in line to feature, as indicated by the manager, when previewing the game. The youngsters have forced their way into his plans of late and are in contention for another first-team appearance in the capital.

    “For just 10, 15 minutes tonight Jimmy played as well,” Ole told reporters after bringing Garner on during the 3-1 win over Norwich City.

    “I thought he was excellent, because he’s calmed us down when we wanted to see the game out.

    “So we’ve not made a decision on who is going to play [at Chelsea] but you’ll probably see the two of them [Garner and Williams].”
    Brandon Williams made his debut in the third-round win over Rochdale.
    Paul Pogba will definitely be missing as the midfielder is still recovering from an ankle injury and is unlikely to return to the llne-up until December.

    However, Ole has praised the performances of Fred and Andreas Pereira in his absence, suggesting the two Brazilians can fill the gap left by Pogba.

    “Fred will probably take Paul’s position for a while now and he’s been brilliant for us, but Andreas has grown the last few games,” Solskjaer added.

    “His energy and running, chasing – he's a different sort of no.10, he can play also in the central positions.

    “So I’m delighted for Andreas – great professional, great attitude. He does his job to the best of his abilities.”

    A number of other names from the Academy, such as Mason Greenwood, Tahith Chong and Angel Gomes have been given increased responsibility by Solskjaer this season.
    manchester-united-team-news-for-chelsea-in-the-carabao-cup

    Solskjaer was impressed with Andreas Pereira's performances against Liverpool and Norwich.
    And with the likes of Luke Shaw, Nemanja Matic and Axel Tuanzebe sidelined, the Norwegian may have to call upon them again when we go up against Frank Lampard’s side, who have also made headlines for their own youthfulness this season.

    “We know it’s been tough and we know that we’ve asked a lot of them because Paul, Luke, Anthony – there's loads of other players that have been injured,“ added the boss.

    “For us, the youngsters have stepped up in a difficult period. But in the end, they’ll be stronger for it.”

    Chelsea
    The Blues have issues at centre-back, with Antonio Rudiger still recovering from a groin injury he picked up in his only appearance so far this season, against Wolves. Andreas Christensen is also a doubt, having missed the Newcastle and Burnley matches with a hamstring problem.

    Ross Barkley sat out the trip to Turf Moor with an ankle injury and is unlikely to return, while fellow England midfielder Ruben Loftus-Cheek is still on the sidelines after rupturing his Achilles tendon in May. Olivier Giroud appears to be earmarked to lead the line and Lampard may shuffle his pack.

    I remember it. We'd of won if Nani just took the ball into the corner in the dying minute of the game :mad:
     
    Really don't care about this one. Play the kids until we reach the semi's or get dumped out. Our focus should be on the Europa League and Premier League only.
