Manchester City 1:1 Manchester United

Von Mistelroum · Aug 10, 2024

Honestly, what a terrible set of substitutions. Don't bother giving your new forward a run out, but make sure McTom is on the pitch.

Thank goodness we got Amad off too. Might have accidentally scored a goal!

We've taken off our best player????

how do you remove Amad and leave Rashford

Amad looks ready for the season and doesn't need any more preseason minutes and Rashford is the opposite.

cj_sparky · Aug 10, 2024

Would've been far less disruptive to bring Antony on to play at LB, but ten Hag knows from experience that he throws a strop about it.

Rashford staying on

I just need one shot on target from rashford and haaland, after they can get subbed.

Is it really though? Strange decision.

It’s a competitive game albeit the most irrelevant one. Still, why keep in Rashford who offers nothing and remove your best attacker along with Bruno.

rollingstoned1 · Aug 10, 2024

Time was when Rashford would have pressed that defender like a madman instead of aimlessly jogging about.

pseudo_canadian · Aug 10, 2024

Saving Amad for Friday I’m assuming? Only explanation

When's Xerxes coming on?

Is Zirkee unfit or something?

McT as a CF ?

Honestly don't know why he would care what Antony thinks. You can't be atrocious for 2 years in your natural position and then complain about any game time you are given.

Only a glorified friendly but jeez Rashford is still untouchable.

He's saving Amad. I can understand it. Rashford needs to be hooked off as well though.

If Rashford scores a goal it’s worth keeping him on. I’d agree if it was an important game but this is about getting players ready for next week, Rashford still looks off, taking him off doesn’t help.

Dazzmondo · Aug 10, 2024

Still not seen anything impressive from Mount in his time here. Feels like people are always reaching to praise him for the most ordinary things, saying he's a good link up player, or good presser. Reality is he hasn't done anything to merrit a starting place

SB16 · Aug 10, 2024

We'll lose once they bring on KDB and/or Bernardo Silva.

Rashford lucky that he's nominally still considered as someone who can play as striker. Should be replaced, too.

Sgreddevil · Aug 10, 2024

Weird substitution. Amad has been our greatest threat. Rashford did nothing of use and managed to stay on the field. Likely either he has ETH's private photos or ETH just can't be bothered with winning a glorified preseason friendly.

Reapersoul20 · Aug 10, 2024

Casemiro is BACK

mav_9me · Aug 10, 2024

Not sure why we are playing Pellistri at RB instead of Amass at LB..

Blood Mage · Aug 10, 2024

Wow those subs, we really don't give a feck about winning this do we.

Next weeks game is far more important than today. So squad management is key for today.

krazyrobus · Aug 10, 2024

Pellestri as wing back against Doku looks suicide

fallengt · Aug 10, 2024

terrible subs

Hoof the ball · Aug 10, 2024

Oh great. Savinho.

Betson · Aug 10, 2024

Disappointed with Mounts performance , typical of last years performances when he was available , mostly anonymous throughout the game.

amolbhatia50k · Aug 10, 2024

Is there any logical reason Amad is subbed off before Rashford? Is it purely an age / experience thing?

Dudu · Aug 10, 2024

Doku off. Savinho on for city.

amolbhatia50k · Aug 10, 2024

Where’s zirkzee?

always_hoping · Aug 10, 2024

Extra time or straight to penalties if it's a draw after 90 minutes today?

Amad is fully fit and will start vs Fulham. No need to play him more than that

He is 18 and we need to groom him and keep him for Fulham next week.

cj_sparky · Aug 10, 2024

The community shield allows 7 subs doesn't it?

Sassy Colin · Aug 10, 2024

This is starting to have the feel of a pre season friendly, which it is admittedly, with those subs.

The subs are clearly with an eye to Friday night's game rather than this one.

Do you expect Rashford not to?

Nep77 · Aug 10, 2024

Shocking decision to not have any defenders on the bench and having to play pellestri as RB. Amad taken off while playing well again.

SuperiorXI · Aug 10, 2024

Doku has been their best player

Dudu · Aug 10, 2024

Forgot Haaland was playing.

Shark · Aug 10, 2024

What the feck are those subs, I mean we do want to win this as it's a great of confidence boost coming into the season, especially after being tonked 3-0 by Liverpool. ETH obviously disagrees.

Amad is playing well, no need to risk him. Rashford not so much. If he could get a goal that could do wonders for his confidence.

“McTominay should play as striker”.
