    Have you not gone through this over and over and he’s since played Amad and Shola? We don’t have any youth registered and there are complications with different bubbles and stuff due to covid.

    There are no complications. He can do it if he wants to. He could've chosen to have Galbraith, which he had the last game. But he doesn't want to.

    I did, in the post you replied to calling Ole a coward for picking a (young) goalkeeper ahead of a young player.

    Ignoring the fact he's picked Amad and Shoretire on that same bench of course.
     
    I know we have a few injury concerns ourselves but with AC's issues, it would be pretty odd if they came out with an attacking display. Could be a tactical game.

    I guess they will try and strangle the game and take us back to Milan with the tie in balance.

    You mean Amad who he bought for £37M and yet refuses to play? Ah ok. The youth!

    Nope, I wouldn't.

    Interesting, cheers.

    On loan players against their parent clubs is always a strange one to me. It's against the rules in the Prem but fine in Europe.

    Yeah I find this weird. You get so used to the PL way of doing it.

    In this instance it doesn't feel too much like a conflict. He's got no real chance of being a United player again. Not reliable enough to unseat AWB, who will only get better, but definitely too good to sit on the bench. If Milan don't take him someone will.
     
    Easy 11 out of 11, hopefully Amad gets on. At this point Axel has to be concerned with his lack of chances.
     
    Our injuries have come at the worst time possible. Hopefully we get a few back before the break.
     
    Excited to see Tomori play and Dalot starting should be interesting. Surprised Tonali cant get into the Milan team he was rated very highly last season whilst at Brescia.

    He doesn't have the balls for it. He rather has a second goalie than a youth player.

    Whereas you're not smart enough to realise that would mean disrupting the covid bubbles to put a player there that will never play.

    I do.

    I mean 18 year old Amad who arrived a month ago having played less than a handful of games all season.

    I also mean 17 year old Shoretire, 21 year old Bishop, 19 year old Greenwood and 20 year old Brandon Williams.

    You utter plum.
     
    Bring Amad on and have him target Dalot. If Dalot successfully defends him, get him back next year. If he can't, sell him. After all Amad is a 19 year old kid.
     
    With the players they are missing, there are no excuses.

    I am with you. Wish they would do it in order of positions instead of squad numbers.

    It's worse than that. We always put the goalkeeper at the top so it's not even properly in order of squad numbers.
     
    Lucky I checked in early, didn't realise it was 5.55 ko

    I feel goals are coming tonight - 5-1 to United, tie over

    The diminutive foreign 18 year old with almost no senior football under his belt who we bought two months ago and are sensibly giving time to settle into the country, club and squad before throwing him into an intense and high-stakes season?
     
    I'd take a 0-0 here. We really aren't in a position to put out a strong team for this.

    EDIT - Just seen a post saying Milan are even weaker, so disregard.

    Tbf the alternative is what, ask Ole for his formation and post it up an hour before the game? Perhaps he'd give us some little diagrams of his strategy for the game too? Shirt number order with keeper at the start is very standard.

    I'm both smarter than you and know more about football than you will ever know. He could "disrupt" the bubble in the last game. He could "disrupt" the bubble with Amad several times. Anything else you want to be wrong about?

    Yeah, he is a real hero for playing Greenwood who has almost 100 games for United and debuted over two years ago :D :D or having a 22-year-old goalkeeper (who by the way never has played for United) on the bench. A HERO :D you know so little, little, little about football and facts. Just come at me. You have no chance.

    He's not disrupted the bubble with Amad, he's always been in a separate bubble. Galbraith for example would be on his own unable to join the team. Further more they will be playing tomorrow, so why would they be on our bench tonight?

    Keep up.
