    Jose doesn't seem Keen on playing Martial and Rashford's.together.

    Anyway seems a good team. The new back 4 is bit of a doubt though.
     
    We shouldn't underestimate these teams in our group. A couple of bad results and it can go downhill quickly. I wouldn't dare to leave any of Pogba, Matic or Lukaku out.
     
    Wasn't expecting the fullback choices, Young at RB in a CL game shows how weak we are in that position. Happy with the formation, midfield and front 4, bench is a bit bleak bar Rashford.
     
    I like the team. :drool:

    Bit sceptical of Young, but I have some faith.
     
    Young threw a curveball to my plan of getting an 11/11 prediction.

    Probably because that leaves us with no strikers on the bench, assuming Lukaku plays, which he should.

    Yep, focus everything on winning the home games and we stand a good chance of advancing.

    Because we would have no attacker on the bench to bring on when the opposition have tired legs. I'm sure Jose would want to do it but it would just not make sense unfortunately. Hopefully once Zlatan gets back we will see it (I'm pretty sure of it).
     
    Decent team. Happy to see the return of the 4231.

    Interested to see how Lindelof and Smalling get on.

    Also be keeping a close eye on how Young gets on. More than capable of being back up for Valencia.
     
    Excellent formation. Just as I hoped play Martial to rest Rashford a bit. Young is somewhat a surprise but hope he's fit.
     
    IMO our best front four, let's hope for a good win. Good run out for our defence too, nice chance to see if Lindelof can perform to a good standard, c'mon United!
     
    Good team considering we need to rotate a bit. Didnt think Valencia would play every game but wasnt sure who the back up was. Young makes sense in an attacking sense but defensively hopefully we cover well.

    Front 6 is perfect.
     
    We get Basel at home on a tuesday whereas Everton play a much tougher match in Italy on thursday.

    Hard to find excuses if we don't win on sunday

    Early team news
    It’s understood Ashley Young will start for United tonight but not necessarily at left-back. Mourinho is believed to want to rest Antonio Valencia, so Young could come in at right-back and Matteo Darmian or Daley Blind will line up on the other flank. If Blind comes in, it will be an entirely new back four.

    Well that might just beggar all your lineups.

    Wish I'd seen this. I got 10/11 missing out on him.
     
    Gahhh, I had a hunch Valencia wouldn't start, but I didn't dare leaving him out of the line-up prediction anyway… definitely not for Young. Another one down the drain, as Mourinho shuffled again.
     
    Herrera injured or suspended? Surprised not to see Carrick start tonight
