Ballsy Solskjaer with that lineup. If he pulls this off, everyone will praise him for another masterclass. If he doesnt everyone will be on his back and I will be right on the front row, because look at that bench ffs.Got to be joking..OGS thinks he is facing Newcastle again!!!!
His age doesn't have much to do with it, he's still in great shape. He's been training for the week and kept training before that.
I actually don't think hell start though. But I wouldn't be massively surprised if he did.Terrible lineup in my opinion too but hoping we'll be proven wrong...why is Tuanzebe not starting?Also 3 midfielders on bench with no Telles. Dumb.This is a joke.
Wheres telles??Last Tuesday Telles put in the best attacking display from a United left back I've seen in years. So naturally he doesn't even make the squad for the next game.Ffs, Mata and James... Crap selection.
Over shaw?Guessing Telles must be injured for us to have no fullbacks on the bench.Strange selection. Telles not even in the squad eitherNo bloody Telles. Don't tell me he is injured after one game?
Chelsea are just a glorified Newcastle
How? It's the complete opposite.The same people who argue that Sancho wasn’t needed will argue that the plan wasn’t to play James so much last season. He should be finished at the clubOle seems better suited to these underdog/workmanlike line ups, keeping it simple works better for him.I just don't get how James is playing ahead of Greenwood.
Oh well, trust in the manager and all that.Should’ve stuck with 3 at the back and destroyed them on the counterWho the feck is leaking the teams??That bench thoughI’d have played Bruno right and started one of Pogba/VDB ahead of Mata. You can’t say we don’t have options from the bench anymore though.
Shaw's better defensively which'll be important in a game like this against their attacking options. For him to not be on the bench, I feel he must be injured.Telles not even on the bench when he's better than Shaw
You cant play him so early. He hasn't played in nearly a year. His muscles will be fatigued. If you want him to avoid injury, you need to ease him in.
He did take a knock against PSG toward the end of game iirc.
He hasn't played a game in 10 months. It's probably smart to only have him play one game a week for a while now. I'm surprised we're not using a back 5 but Tuanzebe was always unlikely.
so the leak was right!!
taking the 'game management' route. great confidence boost for Fred and McTI can understand Axel being on the bench.Against Chelseas pace we are screaming out for 352. Hope Ole pulls it off though.
Mata and Bruno connection can be good. James is shite though no idea why he starts, even for a wing spot.
saving TZ for Leipzig?Chelsea have 8 defensive players on the pitchThis lineup is going to come back to bite Ole on the arse, that Chelsea attack will have fun with this team and it will be too late to the bring on the big players,
I mean at least put Greenwood on for James ffsChelski field the better team on paper. We have a lot of energy in that side though.I'm not understanding the celebrating the bench when the starting lineup is so strange.I don't like leaked line ups more than unexpected line ups.
I'm actually quite okay with it. The only worry is Telles, hope he didn't get injured.
Doesn't make sense that Brandon Williams played a U23 game last night if that's the case.
Nope, we will be doing most of the defending. If we were exepecting a lot of the ball you wouldn’t play Fred and McTominay tbh.- Status
