    Grant
    Laird--Tuanzebe--Jones--Young
    Garner--Matic
    Lingard--Mata--Gomes
    Greenwood

    subs: Kovar; Shaw, Mengi; Levitt, Pereira; Chong, Ramazani

    If Matic isn't fit enough to start then start Levitt.​
     
    Team should be...

    ---------------Romero---------------
    Laird--Tuanzebe--Jones--Shaw
    -------Garner-------Levitt-------
    Chong------Mata-------Gomes
    ------------Greenwood------------

    Subs: Grant, Young, Matic, Andreas, Lingard, Feck, Knows,
    Matic will play and Gomes has to play 10, he's not a winger.
     
    Matic will play and Gomes has to play 10, he's not a winger.

    Matic can't play 2 games in a week and if he's back he's needed against Villa more than a dead rubber in Kazakhstan

    As for Gomes I don't have him lined up as a winger and he's played as a wide creative midfielder plenty of times
     
    Anyone know what the temperature will be in the stadium? -20 outside but the roof will be closed so assume it’ll be closer to 0.
     
    Hopefully Maguire will be rested. He s been playing 2 games a week for some time. Southgate complained about it but still played him in the last game even if England had already qualified
     
    Horrible game to have to deal with but Ole was pretty clear that clinching qualification last time out would free him up to play the reserves here. We can send a smattering of senior players for this, we clearly won't be picking Jones again any time soon in the PL and I would imagine Young and Mata fall in the same bracket. Matic and Shaw are more of a question mark just because with no first team action in a while they probably can only be counted on as subs at best. Looks like the U23s will be going on a road trip.
     
    We've got 3 games in 7 after this, two of those being against Spurs and City, respectively.

    We should rest as many players as we can for this game, because I'd be fuming if Ole was to go with a strong team and we lost more first team players.
     
    Must rest our players. After this match we got Aston Villa, Spurs & City in one week.
     
    Difficult game to manage. While it makes sense to play younger and fringe players it takes away momentum from the players that have been playing well. Plus, any player that is injury prone should be left at home. We all know any half hearted warmup or not at full fitness then trying to sprint in sub zero temperatures will twinge, strain or pull something.
     
    Looks like their season ended on 10th Nov and they won the title. Apart from 2 remaining Europa games, which are only academic from their point of view, they are already into 'off-season.' Maybe we will see Astana too fielding some youngsters in that case.

    So we'll scrape a 1-0 win.
     
    --------------Romero
    Laird-Tuanzebe-Jones-Young
    ---------Garner-Levitt
    --------------Gomes
    Greenwood------Chong
    -----------Ramazani

    No reason to not give a chance to the kids.
    I would love to see both Garner and Levvit play.It looks unrealistic at this point but i hope one of them will be a regular part of the squad by the end of the season. Both are very talented and much better footballers imo compared to some of the ones we've been linked with for huge money.

    -----------Romero
    Dalot-Tanzebe-Bailly-Shaw
    --------Garner---Matic
    ------------Lingard
    Chong-----------Gomes
    --------Greenwood

    Some of them have been injured for a while and back training and this might be the game to rebuild match fitness.
     
    Field the U12s. No one gives a shit!

    I'm working so thank feck I'll miss it
     
    As said above leave most of the nailed-on-to-start at villa lads at home or bench at worst. This games for the kids.
     
    Romero
    Laird, Tuanzebe, Jones, Young
    Garner, Matic
    Lingard, Gomes, Chong
    Greenwood

    Bench: Grant, Shaw, Mengi, Pereira, Levitt, Mata, Ramazani
     
    I'd like to see Ramazani, Mejbri (more just to see how he would fair at mens football - not sure he will come), Levitt, Laird and Gomes. Greenwood and Williams are proper first team now, so don't count them :D.
     
    Apparently Carrick and Mackena are staying with the first team squad whilst Butt will travel with the young squad to play Astana.
     
    -------------------------------------Romero--------------------------------------------
    Young-----------Tuanzebe----------------Maguire-------------------Williams
    ----------------------Pereira----------------------Fred-----------------------------------
    ------------------------------------Lingard------------------------------------------------
    Greenwood----------------Martial--------------------------------James

    SUBS - Garner (Pereira), Fosu-Mensah (Young), Chong (James)


    FC Astana 1 - 1 Man United
    Greenwood
    Think if we play this team, we should beat them.
     
    ---------------------------- Romero--------------

    Young----------- Jones-----Tuanzebe-------Shaw

    ------------------Matic--------------Garner------

    Greenwood------------Gomes----------------Lingard

    ------------------------------Martial------------------------

    Subs:- Dalot, Fred, Lindelof, Rashford, Chong
     
    The home leg was this.

    Romero
    Dalot Tuanzebe Jones Rojo
    Matic Fred
    Greenwood Gomes Chong
    Rashford

    1-0 Greenwood after Mata and Lingard came on to replace Chong and Gomes.
