Yeah Ole is worse than Moyes and Mourinho and more defensive too.
You would he will change, but just gets more negative with hime.
Second positive, no lingard.
They will be quivering at that bench
Be good to get two on the pitch from the start some day.Not sure James and Martial work together as a front 2. We'll see. Guessing Greenwood to come in for James at some point and then Ighalo if we need a goal late on.
Bailly starting is interesting, but a positive. Never too happy with Lindelof, hes a bit shit so at least we have someone who wont be pushed around in Bailly. Stylistically hes most suited to partner Maguire anyway, just never fit.Can’t say I’m happy with this cowardly formation. I do trust Ole in that I think he will have us play well - but I’m a bit tired of this lining up with just one player who is capable of scoring a goal thing. We are leaving ourselves with way too much to do in order to actually win a game of football.
Looks like he has either picked up a knock in training or gone down with illness in the last couple of days. Be interesting to see what he says about Lingard in the pre-match interview too.Last edited:Im already afraid that Bailly will make a mistake and also get injured again... would have expected Jones to be picked over Bailly.
Not that Jones wont make a mistake and get injured. Where is Lindelof?
It's those types of performances I associate most with him these days. The PSG game still feels fresh in the memory despite being nearly a year ago.Most likely a total car crash of a performance probably
Bailly in a back 3... Getting flashbacks of PSG.
Possibly one of the worst individual performances of club history.
I agree. Their midfield might boss ours though.Bailly in the starting lineup is a surprise. He must have impressed in training to get the nod ahead of Lindelof, Jones and Tuanzebe.
The team looks good all things considered, certainly enough to give Chelsea a fair fight.
Exactly, i stand by the assumption that he sets us up to not lose rather than actually play football. This guy makes me cringe, perfecf opportunity to put Martial out wide and Ighalo in the middle.Bailly&Maguire seems like a perfect match ..I have been sick of so called "ball playing CenterBack" Lindelof
Because Greenwood doesn't play centre back.
Not yet, not yet.Bailly is an accident waiting to happen and I'm convinced that rat-faced little turd Pedro will score.Seen Chelsea look so bad at home often this season, if Ole's got a plan and we stick to it, get a bit of lucky, that team is beatable.Bailly either gets an injury first 20 minutes
Gives away a penalty
Gets sent off
Maybe even in that order..I'm hoping Bailly can reclaim his starting spot. He's a better CB than Lindelof in my opinion.Where is our youngster?Sick of 5 at the back, it's not the United way at all.
This could easily be a back 4 and Williams on the LW, Ole has done this many times whilst Rashford has been out.
It's a back 3 with the wing back attacking. It will shift to a back four when Williams go up anyway. It's not bad, it's the way we are playing until creativity comes back into the midfield.Bruno to score today, i can feel it.Why doesn't he have the balls to start Greenwood or Ighalo? He isn't a damn baby. Clubs are playing younger players all over the place & it's not like he doesn't understand that we are desperate.
James isn't a damn striker & Martial plays too deep.
Literally shoots himself in the foot.Just seems like we keep picking out of form players. James and Shaw in particular I can't understand, especially when Martial so badly needs a proper partner up front.
Let's hope it works but an odd choice.Are people suprised with the line up? Ole has so far shown to be a very defensive counter attacking coach. Also with this squad he cant do that much better. Attacking and dominating is a lot harder than sitting back and waiting for a counter.
Rashford his injury is a massive problem for Ole though. Rashford is a perfect player for Ole his counter tactics. Martial is more suited for a dominating team trying to play football.Lindelof is ill and did not travel.Writing on the wall for Jones if Bailly just cruises straight in ahead of him!
Good thing Jones signed a new contract last year isn't it.Just the usual negative crap being spouted before even a ball is kicked, ffs.Odds for a Baily feck up?
I'm guessing 1/2It's difficult not to see United winning this one 4-0 tonight, completing an epic double over Chelsea.
James to bang in all 4.
Williams? Greenwood on the bench.Should be a good challenge for Fred and Fernandes in midfield. A chance to show how good they are.
Overall looks like we're after a nil nil draw
I agree with you. However, he needs to stay fit, and he needs to keep a cool head. Then he can become a starter. Right now, he's very unpredictable.
Yep, otherwise he could do a Herrera.
Pretty sure Lindelof and Tuanzebe aren't fit enough to play.- Status
