Cleverley and De Laet started games for us under SAF, think they are good enough for title challengers?Looking forward to the Martial + Mata link up.10/11 I had Mkhi in for Jesse.
A good team we should get a result.Anyone know what channel this is on?
Cleverley, Welbeck and Lingard are good enough to be squad players (which means they start games occasionally) in a title-challenging team.
Do you really not understand the benefit of having balance to the side and having the threat of either coming off the bench with fresh legs late in the game?
It’s been such a key tactic to us this season it’s just plain ignorant that people ignore it.Injuries hitting us hard but still a good XI.Good to see McTominay on the bench. Jose hates the youths.It'll be interesting to see if it's Mata or Lingard in the #10 role.
Except for Shaw, and that would mean three fullbacks on the bench, he really had no other option than take a youth player. No merit whatsoever there.11/11, never in doubt.
Sky Sports Ireland.
Based on last season, I'm expecting Lingard on the right, but would like to see him through the middle. Anyway, there will be lots of interchanging.
Blind is a midfielder
I'd like to see Rashford and Martial together as well but Rash just played during the week and went off with a knock. Just glad to see him in the squad.Blind is a midfielder
He was a midfielder, for Ajax 3.5 years ago?
OK you got me.
The irony. Calling people ignorant and acting all pretentious when you're the one displaying ignorance.
Checkmate
It is interesting that many of us feel that Blind should be tried out as a DM, even though LVG, who bought the guy refused to play him as a midfielder, because he felt that he wasn't good enough in midfield.
Explain
I don't understand this statement. Could you break it down for me.
Why would he put a youth player on the bench when a senior player in the position is available? Since when did we start doing that for competitive games?Good lineup. Very important game considering our fixtures to come.
Off topic, but 548 posts in less than 9 days?
I think you're on a good way to set some kind of record.cup final for Huddersfield
hope we keep our heads and attack with confidenceWhilst on one one hand I’m more interested in the performance today as much as the result, I’d bite at a 0-1 today.
Was in his first season at United too. Don’t get why it is unthinkable for him to play there now. Cracking player.Good lineup.My first 11/11 prediction! Shame I will be missing most of the match traveling.
Here's hoping for a Martial hat-trick14:52

No bald people allowed in.Cry me, cry me, cry me a river ...
In Ireland.Travesty to see Jesse Lingard in the starting-XI, but that’s how it is. Expect him to drift out of position all game, making the game much harder for Valencia who can’t risk running forward much when there is no-one to cover him or interchange with. Hopefully jinxing it now which means Lingard will score and assist.Come on UnitedThe crowd and Huddersfield will be well up for this, expect a hard fought victory.Mikhi is out of form, not arguing that, but today you will see how our attack is different with him or without him. I hope that i will eat my words and lingard will score a goal or have an assistHuddersfield haven't won in 6 games? Great, we know what that means.
The best thing would be to shut them up straight away. Not sure you can do that with the newly promoted sides to be fair, they are too happy to be in the PL.- Status
