    I know its expected playing mcfred, but if you can't play pogba in midfield at home against villa with a back 5, who can you play him against?

    Villa are no mugs and have a midfield that would outwork Pogba.
     
    11/11 I'm on fire

    Think it's my 4th 11/11 of the season
     
    Predicable line up, and likely our most balanced, but its not a line up that is winning the PL or anything else. It also shows the stupidity of prioritizing Sancho over a CM +RB.

    'Leaked' line up
    Remember these aren't always right, but this is the early suggestion of United's XI:
    De Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Varane, Maguire, Shaw, McTominay, Fred, Greenwood, Fernandes, Pogba, Ronaldo.

    These days, when are they ever wrong? The leak we've got gushes like a faucet!
     
    3 at the back for Villa? Feels very tasty for our attackers to exploit. Almost wish we could get Sancho on for this to have some direct running at their defence.

    This thought that Pogba can never play in a Midfield two is nonsense.

    He has been better in the two than Fred by far this season!

    Once Rashfords back he has to play in the two
     
    11 out of 11. I hate myself for at the last minute putting Fred ahead of Donny.

    It will be about 8.
     
    Makes me think when people say Pogba can play at the double pivot against lower sides what teams are these? Cardiff? Coventry? Norwich?
     
    Varane was meant to end Mcfred... but Mcfred will never be defeated!

    3 points an absolute must today.

    Every midfield will outwork pogba. If that's what we are worried about he will never play there.

    We will likely have 65 70 percent possession. These are the types of games you want him on the ball in midfield with 4 people in front of him to feed.

    I'm just not confident how often we will see it.

    Still think we will win right enough.
     
    Why dont we try VDB McTom. Fred has been useless all season so far.

    I think Villa are being underestimated here.

    Also why change a side that worked fine last week?
     
    Easy call for the starting XI. Ole loves Fred, but how is it possible that he doesn’t see that Fred’s in diabolical form?

    Who do you put on when we get one injury
     
    Probably our strongest team given form of greenwood and Sancho. If we had any other good double pivot option he would be in there ahead of Fred, but we don't have Scott and Fred have experience together and at a minimum will cover huge group against a good villa midfield
