    Fantastic line up! But I thought Mourinho hates Pogba and Martial now :rolleyes:
     
    WHY THE feck IS YOUNG STARTING OVER SHAW AGAIN?

    If Martial is on the right I'm going to actually cry. Or post a turd to Jose's hotel room.
     
    Fed up with Young at left back, especially with Shaw stuck on the bench again.

    Also hope Martial starts left, with Sanchez from the right.
     
    Seems like a decent lineup on paper, which means caf will initially love it, will be set up weirdly, play awfully and eventually loose.

    Smalling again? Is there really no one else? In all I think it's a good line up but seeing him starts always makes me less confident.

    Jones and Rojo are injured and it’s probably a bit too soon for Bailly.

    Biggest test yet if true.

    Make sense actually if we consider the little football games Bailly have played.

    We could even see 3 CBs at the back today.

    Biggest test was the 2nd half against Man City.

    Young in not Shaw. Disappointed with that.

    Was surprised Shaw would start. Young seems the big game player, don't think Shaw is trusted tactically yet, but I'd probably have gone with Shaw too. Young is definitely the more defensive option.
     
    Didnt Mourinho say the best way to play against a back three is with a back three. Surprised he went with a back 4

    Maybe, but it was written as if he was on the left for the Sevilla tweet.

    Everytime Sanchez and Martial have been starting together, the tweet reads as if Sanchez will be on the right and Tony on the left. I'm hoping we try it this time but won't be holding my breath..

    For the angst over Shaw, his defensive work is still not up to scratch and he can't yet be trusted in games like this. But his hard work is encouraging and he will get there soon.

    I'd assume if Jose wants to do a man-marking job on Hazard, Scotty's the boy.
     
    Would have gone with Shaw over Young tbh. Will be interesting to see how we line-up though.
     
    Other than Bailey in, I think this is iur strongest team we could field.

    There should be no defence or excuses if we lose this.
     
    Is it a 4-2-3-1?

    De Gea
    Valencia - Smalling - Lindelöf - Young
    McTominay - Matic
    Sanchez - Pogba - Martial

    Should be a good game, lads. I won't wish you good luck, but hopefully it's an entertaining game. Looks like Jose is showing some intent to attack anyway with that lineup. Here's to a good game!

    Person in charge of social media doesn't know where the players will play. Every other time Alexis and Martial have started, Martial has been 'written' as being on the left but he ends up being on the right. I expect it to be the same today.
     
    I like how the Twitter admin made sure to point out it was a 433.
