    I think the missing players indicate a lot. Going to be a nightmare to guess the front six but the back five will probably be

    De Gea

    Valencia Jones Smalling Dalot​

    Hopefully Dalot starts over Young.
     
    Why not just let the players take an early vacation and ask them to start pre-season earlier? Try being better prepared for next season.

    Should be a fun front three anyway

    (waits for it to turn out to be Mata - Rashford - Martial...)
     
    Really hope some youngsters start rather than get 15 mins specially Greenwood.
     
    Genuinely the only game I can remember in recent years where it really does mean nothing to the club and the fans. Complete apathy.
     
    Would love to go 442.

    De Gea
    Valencia - Smalling - Jones - Young
    Dalot - McTominay - Pogba - Chong
    Greenwood - Rashford​

    Gomes, Garner and Mata off the bench.
     
    Remember when Mourinho started McTominay, Tuanzebe, TFM, Pereira (keeper), Harrop, and Mitchell for the last game of the season?

    We had an Europa league final waiting and the CL was done. Similar to now, only without the El final and a rebuild in the summer.

    Still would like to finish 5th instead of 6th and we can avoid a Europa Quali game in pre-season I believe.

    I do, i remember Giggs doing the same and LvG and everyone loving it. Apparently it would be wrong for Ole to do the same though, on this occasion it's right for him not to play the youth, unless of course he decides to play the youth then that's also the right decision.
     
    Predicted Starting XI
    ........................................David de Gea
    Antonio Valencia Phil Jones Chris Smalling Ashley Young
    Scott McTominay
    gomes.jpg
    Angel Gomes Paul Pogba
    Tahith Chong Mason Greenwood Marcus Rashford

    Predicted Substitutes
    Diogo Dalot
    James Garner
    Anthony Martial


    what do you think?
    too many kids?
    let the boys play, they will do much better anyway, at least they will not showboat or sulk, some of them might even run :drool:
     
    Expect some youngsters and some squad management. Fred and Lingard will probable start.

    De Gea
    Dalot Smalling Lindeløf Shaw
    McTominay Fred Pogba
    Lingard Greenwood Martial

    Chong, Garner and Rashford in as substitutes.

    Need to win the game to get 5th to avoid early season start if Watford wins the FA Cup and Arsenal lose tomorrow

    Why would we want to avoid an early start? These feckers didn't earn a vacation, they should get back to work asap and work on their fitness.

    They get less time to work on fitness if we start Europa earlier.
     
    I wanted Herrera to stay and disappointed he's leaving but I am not sure I would get sentimental about it and play him or even have him in the squad, just to give him a send off. Arguably we could do that for half the sqaud tomorrow...

    He's had a little send off video, which is more then most players get for 5 years at the club. Much rather his space in the sqaud goes to a young player.

    That said, Tony V deserves a farewell, he's one of the remaining players from SAF's era, been here for 10 years, and potentially could be retiring.

    MAN UTD SQUAD VS CARDIFF
    GOALKEEPERS: David De Gea, Sergio Romero, Lee Grant

    DEFENDERS: Antonio Valencia, Phil Jones, Chris Smalling, Ashley Young, Diogo Dalot

    MIDFIELDERS: Paul Pogba, Fred, Juan Mata, Scott McTominay, Andreas Pereira, James Garner

    ATTACKERS: Marcus Rashford, Jesse Lingard, Anthony Martial, Mason Greenwood, Tahith Chong, Angel Gomes

    I am glad Ole took the decision to leave him out of the squad.

    ................DDG......
    TonyV......Smalling....Jones....Dalot
    ................. Mctominay......
    .............Pereria.......Pogba...........
    Chong.........Greenwood.....Rashford

    Garner, Gomes and Mata to come on

    It's not about "vacation". It's about starting the season prematurely and interrupting our pre-season. Which, considering our fitness, is something we desperately need. We can't afford to have another shite pre-season.

    You’re being too optimistic. Players like Herrera, Valencia, Young, Matic and Jones will play. OGS has shown him giving youth a chance is give odd 10 mins sub appearance.

    :confused:
    How's that going to work when Herrera & Matic have been left out of the squad? I already have Jones & Valencia in my team
     
    Seeing the squad... Gonna go with:
    De Gea
    Valencia Smalling Jones Dalot
    Fred
    McTominay Pogba
    Chong Greenwood Rashford
    Mata, Garner, Gomes subbed on for Fred, Pogba, Chong
