    The negativity on here is more unbearable than the negativity on the pitch. Really gets me down coming on here nowadays.
     
    This is gonna be a repeat of the Arsenal game all over again, no chance can you play three thirty year olds against a team as energetic and nippy as Leicester.

    I'm really, really worried about this.
     
    I'd have rather have seen Carrick and Schneiderlin to be honest. Guessing it's McNair right back and Darmian left back but it could easily be 352.
     
    Carrick and Basti together against another high pressing, high tempo team.

    Worked so well against Arsenal :wenger::wenger::wenger::wenger:

    In fairness - Leicesters midfield aren't quite the same as Özil, Sanchez, Coquelin etc
     
    But why are you assuming McNair at Rb? Surely the most logical defence wil be Darmain-Smalling-McNair-Blind.

    I assumed that keeping CB pair constant but yeah it can be changed the way you mentioned. There are multiple combinations possible. Let's see how we actually lineup.
     
    This is the exact kind of game Morgan should have been brought in for. Then again, we said that against Arsenal, and that went all so well.
     
    Don't know which side will show up. Will it be Everton away or Crystal Palace away?
     
    300 million pounds spent and we have to line up like this. We are shite at transfers it has to be said.
     
    Think people would have complained regardless of the line up he put out.
    he could of done anything he wanted apart from drop schnedierlin. Not for an away game. Im defending him 90% of the time but he is making it hard.
     
    Its 4-2-3-1.

    DDG
    McNair Smalling Blind Darmian
    Carrick Bastian
    Mata Rooney Young
    Martial​

    Glad to have Carrick back. Badly missed his controlling of the game in midweek
     
    Darmian at LB, Smalling and Blind at CB, McNair at RB. How is that a 3-5-2?

    Or McNair at CB and Darmian at RB.

    Agree with your face.
    Might aswell be like this

    -------------DDG
    McNair-Mike-Blind-Darmian
    ----------BFS-Carrick
    Mata-------Roo--------Young
    ------------Martial

    4231, or 433 as LvG calls it.

    They play in the same vein as Arsenal though. Quick, high tempo.

    We wont be able to cope with it.
     
    They're going to run absolute rings around us.

    They're team is full of pace, and we're playing a load of players who can barely even run.
    United generally this season puts out really good performances when everyone is expecting them to play like shit, but then have shit 0-0 draws or a loss when everyone expects us to do well and are in good form. Or so it feels like. Hopefully it's the same here.
     
    Get your money on Vardy and Co to win. Might as well get something out of this game.
     
    Think people would have complained regardless of the line up he put out.

    Yep. They'll complain whether we win or not, whether we go top or not, whether we score 1 or 5. People will concentrate on what matters.

    Chances created.

    That's all that matters in football, apparently. Oh no 352, even though its probably not 352.

    Carry on melting everyone. Its the normal thing to do...

    McNair - - - - Smalling
    Blind
    Darmian - Carrick - BFS - Young
    Mata - Rooney - Martial​
     
    Looking at the reaction here you would think we're playing Barca or Bayern. Leicester deserve respect but we have a very good chance of beating them.
     
    I'm predicting 3-0 Leicester.

    I doubt it.

    De Gea

    McNair Smalling Blind Darmian

    Carrick Schweinsteiger

    Mata Rooney Young

    Martial


    That's what I'd expect it to be.

    I don't think it's 3-5-2. Blind should play at left-back and Young LW. This combination was very good when we had our run of positive results last season, so it's a good decision IMO. Memphis deserves to be back on the bench for his performance on Wednesday.

    Carrick - Schweiny as a midfield pair is quite risky, but Schneiderlin was embarrassing in the second half vs PSV, so I can see where Van Gaal is coming from. On the other hand, Leicester will most likely press, so a slow midfield is not ideal.
