Would have liked to see Valencia dropped, Young at RB and Lukaku given the armband, but the good news is Sanchez dropped.

What a fecking sentence that is looking forward from January.

Is tonight the debut of the 'singing' section at OT?

@DomesticTadpole clearly made that up. She clearly hates Darmian's sideburns or whatever the feck they are. I don't blame her.

Need to keep track of Locadia - looked decent every time I’ve seen him.

Paul_Scholes18 · Mar 17, 2018

Come on lets win this and advance in the cup. Good team and hopefully Lingard can step up and Martial perform.

MAME DIOUF 32 · Mar 17, 2018

I want to see a reaction from the players here. I place much of the blame for midweek on Jose but the players owe the fans too.

Nikelesh Reddy · Mar 17, 2018

Sanchez and Pogba on the bench,can't argue with the manager though....both if them deserve to be on the bench.

YouOnlyLiveTwice · Mar 17, 2018

Good team.

Well done JM for dropping the 2 broken shinny expensive toys.

MEN website. DT posts everything from there. I think it is reprehensible after MEN used Astori's death for some clickbait on twitter

No Knockaert for Brighton, he always lookerd an exciting player when I swa him in the Championship last season.

Young, Pogba, Alexis benched.

Shaw and Martial. Juan Mata. MaTominic. This should be good. Come on United! Attacking line-up.

Romero
Valencia--Bailly--Smalling--Shaw
MaTominic
Mata---Lingard---Martial
Lukaku

Can't remember any comfortable win this year apart from Yeovil.

I think that about sums it up

Faetheshire86 · Mar 17, 2018

Like the line-up, hopefully we see a response

the question becomes if we win and play well will he have the balls to keep them out the team, he's shown he has with Pogba will be intresting to see what happens with Sanchez

You've nailed it. The turnaround of the form and popularity of Pogba/Sanchez and Lukaku is quite staggering.

I'd keep Sanchez. The man works and tries to drop deep to win back the ball. He will get there - Pogba can be benched from here on though.

Nah, not for me. Yes he works hard but there has to be some demands on these guys to deliver. It sets a bad example if he plays like he has and is still picked.

PieCrust · Mar 17, 2018

I guess I'll watch, but really not excited at all for this. Almost can't be bothered. It's not that we lost to Sevilla, it's the way the team played and Jose's tactics. It's sucked all the fun out for me.

Hopefully not as negative today. Still big games now in the Fa cup. Would be a nightmare if we get knocked out here too though.

Swift Football · Mar 17, 2018

I want to see us trail by a goal to see if Jose brings on either of Sanchez or Pogba or leave them at bench. But want us to win the tie eventually.

TimScoreboard · Mar 17, 2018

I hope Paul is taking all this in... He has the talent to become a very special player, but he is drifting though the 2nd half of the season and paying the price for that apathy.

simonhch · Mar 17, 2018

People saying Sanchez and Pogba dropped, but truth is Pogba has been injured, only making the bench on Tuesday (and clearly didn't look fully fit), and Sanchez has played 90 minutes of every game since he joined. Already two games this week. Perhaps this is just rotation.

I don’t think so.

Mourinho: "It's just the team that I think is the best team to try to win the match. We don't have a match in two days or a reason to think about another match. This is the only match to think about and I'm playing the players that I believe deserve to play." #mufc [MU]

DRM · Mar 17, 2018

Matic is being worked to the ground. Could Carrick not have started?

Web of Bissaka · Mar 17, 2018

Hopefully Lingard is playing as CAM today not one of the CM.

Yeah great, our best two outfield players (on paper) left on the subs bench, thick end of £1 million per week playing like they haven't got a clue, personally I'd be questioning how the shiny toys are currently broken.

Al-T · Mar 17, 2018

In the absence of Knockaert and Stephens, looks like Hughton has changed his usual set up and will go 4-3-3.

Stephens is the big miss as he shields Dunk and Duffy very effectively.

el3mel · Mar 17, 2018

Excellent. Pogba and Sanchez can sort themselves out on the bench with their trash form.

Jeffthered · Mar 17, 2018

No Rashford?

Interesting times at OT. I would expect Pogba to be gone in summer, which would be a travesty. I am surprised how some have turned on him in here. V fickle, and what does this say about the expectations of Man Utd now? Pogba doesn't have a problem with the club, so I hope Mourinho is pleased with himself. The Sanchez deal is quickly becoming a debacle.

What do you think Brighton think about our team? I would imagine that they are pleased that Pogba and Sanchez are on the bench.

I'm guessing there's some sort of injury issue there. Carrick didn't travel to the hotel.

Good. That's why he's here for. I would definitely start him in our most important game as of right now.

Agreed, he's looked absolutely shot for a while now and its reflecting on his perfirmances over 90 mins
