Line ups still leaking
The leaked lineup against Liverpool wasn't accurate if I remember correctly.
He probably already knows the game plan
You don't put your 100m man on the bench
Is that what you want? McT and Cas in CM…?
I must say, for all the stick McT got over the last few years (even just to the extent that he shouldn’t be a starter for us); he seems to be in most poster’s line up.
As far as I can see, he is the same player. Willing, strong, good at carrying the ball, good shot on him; poor positioning, poor showing and receiving the ball, poor in possession.
He’s surely not what we want in there. Yet he had a couple of games where he didn’t shaft us and he seems to be first name on the team sheet.
And here we also have Eriksen who is probably the opposite. Not as strong and tends not to carry the ball but so much better on the possession and passing side. And we have Cas to do the bullying.
I like McT but as a squad option and rotation for Cas (not to play with him).
They’ve always leaked, it’s nothing new. At least we’re not hearing about players being devastated because they have to train in the darkLine ups still leaking
Unleash all the signings on these lot
To be fair the exact opposite happened last game. The defenders weren't remotely bothered by Rashford as they knew they could just out muscle him.
I wouldn't have started Rashford but I can see him getting some success on the break. Arsenal are quite weak on the counter so it'll be a question of if Rashford can hold up the balls he receives (probably not) and run the channel (you'd hope)./
Antony having spent one hour meeting his new teammates and getting a run in will be more effective than Elanga or Rashford being out there.
Yeah I noticed that also, but the only way to learn is to get back in there and try again so maybe he plays better today if they try and rough him up.
Like you said, arsenals defence is pretty poor, I expect Rashford and the other forwards to scare the shit out of them.
It’s probably more the fact he knows how ETH wants to play more than Elanga. Also, the difference in ability is huge.Arteta's first real testTen hag really likes Antony.What is the leaked lineup? Who else is starting apart from Antony?
That’s the only leak so farSo what's the leaked lineup then? Who's in or out?
And that elanga should be an impact sub, not a at starter. He doesn’t know what to do when it’s not working out for him.I think we are asking for trouble if we play McT and Ericksen in midfield. I would've though 4-2-2-2 will provide us with more security. Oh well - learning curve I guess. I don't think we'll beat them today. I hope we don't lose.I'd be so excited if Antony starts
He's played under ETH and his system for a few years, plus they're probably doing a lot of the same training drills he's used to as well. Makes sense really.
Although I'd have loved it if he was on the bench and came in the 60th to a rapturous ovation and set the PL alight (bit like Ronnie's debut all those years ago)Won't happen but for games like this id throw in Fred and Casemeiro with Erikson over Bruno. Just a tight solid midfield with enough attacking
We have a 100m player on the bench already.I will admit, it's been a while since I've wanted us to win so badly. Which is probably not good Should tame our expectations. I hope Casemiro had a chance to fit into the squad by now and will start. Alas, we still don't have an obvious striker–Ronaldo has his obvious issues, Rashford is a shitty striker. Meanwhile, they have Jesus.
Bad news. Odegaard imo is the one who makes them tick.
No, we don't.
Yeah, but that's Ole's 100m player, not ETH'sAntony starting is extremely surprising. He refused to train and play for a couple weeks. He must be ready if ETH is starting him, though. Looking forward to seeing him play.
Not sure there’s that much of a difference between them tbf.
Pogba’s witch doctor.Line ups still leaking
They're favourites and I just don't see us winning it, at least that's my feeling. I'd be okay with a draw tbh, even though it's at Old Trafford and everything.Unleashing Antony, nice one ETH.
Casemiro mate, Casemiro.
Yes we do.
Doesn't seem to be starting otherwise it'd have been leaked, like Antony. FYI leaked line-ups also assume that the arsenal trio are starting. Makes betting in this game tricky.
Who? maguire in euros?
Very true.So Antony was the leak?
If rumours are true, he should be able to do around 60 mins.
Even in euros it’s not 100m
Maguire.
I mean you can be pedantic and say it's not strictly speaking 100m euros, but then nor is Antony's.- Status
