    Silly me for coming to this forum to get quality discourse and to detox from the social media platform sphere.

    I’m being reactionary myself - there’s some quality posters here to be fair.
     
    Good lineup. Would've rested Ronnie but Rashford needs a wakeup call, so I'm fine with this.

    Anyone who plays 4222 is rather clueless imho. It's 442 without the midfield control and defensive solidity.

    4222 works fine but not when you play a winger and a striker in the middle 2

    Surely we won't play as bad as we did against Newcastle. Missing the two games cost us any momentum we had built. The two week plus layoff hurt, we looked like a team that had not played or trained in over two weeks. I fully expect a response today and a comfortable win.

    I like your optimism, but I really think we will struggle again.
     
    What a great/awful lineup. I love/hate it.

    I'll edit this as appropriate as we approach the end of the game

    The excuses made for Maguire are fairly pathetic. “Oh well he stays healthy” or “he progresses the ball well.” The standards are so damn low now for a CB at this club. Maguire will go down as one of our worst signings in club history. Sell him to the Saudis to recoup something and go for Kounde or De Ligt. In the meantime start Varane with Lindeloff or Bailly and we might actually see an improvement with our back 4.

    100%. And sure enough he starts while Rashford, Varane and Fred get benched just like that. It's VDB I feel sorry for. Anyway, we should be smashing Burnley with that team.
     
    Surprised with McT keeping his place, would have preferred Fred & Matic and with no Bruno I really thought DVB would get a go.

    no matter the line up though please let’s just put in a good solid team performance.
     
    Feck me. Donny still sits while McTom starts? Someone find Scott's birth records. I'm betting his real birth name is Glazer. No other explanation. I'll be delighted if McTominay comes good but he's been utter shit for the most part. Nice kid. Great "pashun" but no where near good enough so far.

    Fred having an impressive first two games under Ralf is suddenly dropped?

    Some of these changes are because we've got 3 games in a week. I imagine Fred plays against Wolves, Dalot and Telles too.
     
    Surely the performance can’t be any worse than what we’ve endured against Norwich & Newcastle
     
    feeling a bit under the weather since getting my booster shot yesterday so hopefully the performance tonight will cheer me up.
     
    It was genuinely hilarious how people were so insistent Ralf would love Donny. You'd have to know nothing about either to think that.

    Gone in January. Good riddance.

    We'll don't worry it's Burnley mate.

    well that is why i worry, we haven't been able to control the midfield in a while, not even against the weakers teams in the PL. That's a real shame
     
    Proper 4-4-2 to match Burnley. We will see a solid performance from the boys today and our quality should be just enough to get us the win.
     
    Decent lineup. A fit Varane would've taken Maguire's place but right now it is probably the best defense we can put out, hope Shaw shows some form. Big job for Matic as the midfield will depend on him getting the ball to the front 4. Sancho and Greenwood should have enough technique to dribble with the ball and create space for the strikers.
