    Maguire and Ronaldo with another 90 min, of course! Makes sense. I am not surprised in the slightest and still somehow massively disappointed.

    Ronaldo brace today. You can quote me at the end of the game.
     
    So Graham Potter’s job audition in front of the board and Rangnick?

    If they play us off the park and win convincingly it would be quite a statement.

    There's no way they should come to Old Trafford and be competitive with that lineup.

    Outside of Bissouma, none of the bigger clubs are looking to buy their players which tells you a lot about the job the manager is doing.
     
    Only positive change is Rangnick think about long term benefit by starting Elanga over Lingard.

    It's baffling that to protect our undroppable captain, we sacrifice our creativity in midfield by dropping Pogba. Maguire, McTominay should be the one who need a rest if politic is not involved.

    One more reason to watch RM-PSG instead of going through the hassle finding a river for this game.
     
    Maguire & Shaw should have been benched, let's see if they deserve RR faith in them, dropping Pogba is ok as he played 3 games in 10 days since returning from injury, he suffered a muscle injury so it's understandable if he is being rested, happy to see Elanga given the nod ahead of Rashford.

    Ronaldo is the only available striker so no choice but to start.
     
    Ronaldo needed dropping as he hasn't contributed in God knows how long. it's time to try Bruno at false 9.

    People won't like McFred making an appearance, but it's necessary. No Varane in the backline is just scary, though.

    Lindelof shouldn't be starting ahead of Jones, IMO, but hey, trust in the manager.
     
    You probably have, I’m only messing lad I get a bit giddy before matches, quote me if I’m wrong sure ;)

    Ha fair enough, I really hope I'm wrong I just think they're going to cause us lot's of problems.
     
    i honestly think our best 3 man midfield in a 4-3-3 is Matic, McTominay, Fred. It's pathetic but its the one that gives us an actual defensive midfielder and two box to box midfielders to help Matic with the leg work. Now it offers very little going forward and requires even more individual brilliance with how disconnected of a team we are but it's the one that I feel would help us control games the best.
    Maybe. That looks a bit Jose-esque to me. Very safety first, especially at home to Brighton. Maybe this lineup strikes the right balance, having Pogba and Fernandes deep wasn't great but having Fred back in place of the former adds some industry.
     
    I predicted a 5-0 last game so lowering my expectations this time and going for 4-0
     
    There’s a vomiting and diarrhoea bug going about I believe he’s sick..
     
    BHA play some decent football so thank fvck Pogba isn't on the pitch as they would play around him just like that shit did over the weekend

    Rashford needs to get his head out of his arse and Cavani needs to get fit and healthy b/c Ronaldo has been pathetic to say it nicely same with Bruno. Hell i would have dropped him for Lingard.
     
    Not sure what channel I'm watching but I've got Andy Cole as a pundit and he's looking a damn sight better these days! Wiki says his nephew gave him a kidney about 5 years ago, has he been doing alright since then as far as we know?
     
    People wanted Lindelof playing I suppose. Game just got a lot harder, I think Brighton will nick it.
     
    How could Varane get ill in half an hour? It smells like sheeeet, to be frank
     
    Jeez Varane was in line up, now lidelof is in, we must win this for any chance of top 4
     
    Rangnick is losing a dressing room with his non-merit Maguire picks, from the looks of it.
