Unless we are comfortably ahead, I hope WW remains on the bench.
Hope we win, as if we lose, there's a risk ETH will persist with his Wout experiment

McTerminator up front? Imagine hahaExciting front 3, Sancho seems to be prefer the left so let’s hope he plays well. Concerned about being overrun in midfield though.
I get it, unfortunately we need a presence to sit and Fred/Sabitzer just wont work.McTominay
Christ
But yeah it's pretty grim.I am not optimistic... At least WW is not starting but it's a game where they're parking the bus, so not sure about Rashford up top.
How do you know? On my lineup app Bruno is playing through the middle and Sancho out left.
He made his quarterly appearance last match.McTominay should be starting for Motherwell, not Man United. Dismal.
But not the same attack. I like seing Rashford in the middle (suppose that's the case). This season, I think he has been better up front.Of course martial is injured again
McTominay ain't it chief.I get it, unfortunately we need a presence to sit and Fred/Sabitzer just wont work.
But yeah it's pretty grim.
Baffling. McTominay would struggle to get a game at any other club in the league.
He's not.McTominay and Sabitzer pairing is not good. Hopefully works. Glad Weghorst finally dropped. Will likely still need Martial to come in at some point, not sure why Fred has taken a back seat the past few games either but anyway.
He’s on the bench.
Cos he tends to, admittedly it's a guess but it's based on evidence. He trusts Bruno more than almost any player it seems which is fine but it always bugs me seeing him out wideMctominay ahead of Fred probably because of height, since Brentford is good on setpieces, right? Altough I am not sure why he didn't start Fred instead of Sabitzer then.Should be enough to do them at home.Can we stop playing that disgusting midfield? It doesn't work. Fred needs to be in the side.I'm not betting on a Mc-Sabitzer midfield no matter how fired up ETH has made the players. Brentford had our number early in the season too. Hard pass.McTomibitzer again
I don't disagree, but he's the only one we have outside big Cas who can handle himself physically and not get bullied.
Fred and Sabitzer are both small and both quite all over the place, probably too similar. Honestly all choices at this moment are bad.
Yeah my bad. Maybe I can pretend that my post is from the future!how many Brentford players can you name without looking
I don't think so ETH basically always play his best XI in the PL. And imo WW doesn't look like he'd really need one.
Good oneSancho gets another chance.
Probably their starting XIMcTominay is literally the anti-midfielder
We'll struggle this evening.Eriks sudden decision to ostracise Fred from the team in favour of Scott & Sabitzer is bizarre to say the least. The latter have shown two games in a row now that they simply can’t get hold of a game.
At least Weghorst is finally dropped. And Martisl was never going to start. Erik has said repeatedly that he’s been rushed back to quickly this season and this time he’ll be introduced slowly.No Weggers, thank feck! Martial to come on later too hopefully.I think ETH is putting himself under big pressure with this setup considering how it went last time. I like that he believes in his ideas but still, it has to work this time.
So injured he’s on the benchSancho was invisible and gave as little effort as possible in his Newcastle cameo, so should be an improvement today if he tries even the slightest.Dalot and MuckyT again... hmmm
Bench, we can't be rushing him back, as it'll be another 2 months out if we over stress his body. 60 minute substitution into the game, I'd guess.
Probably because he is the football equivalent to boiled cabbage.
He's not very tall.- Status
