    Good lineup. Should be plenty to put Fulham away but it most likely will not be a cake walk. Glad to see Dalot starting although I had Shaw and Young as both FB. Had McT over Mata.
     
    I am watching. I love Man United and more then ever the team needs our support. Fecked off with Mou but alao fecked off with the hordes of so called fans who only are behind the team when it wins.

    Dont want to watch...great streams may be less choppy today
     
    Looking at the team, I am so confident we will smash Fulham spending rest of the games losing to them, 0-1.
     
    No Pogba, yet Matic continues to get games. He's stealing a living.

    Do people expect Pogba to have the same role as Matic ? If so why are they in direct competition for the spot?

    Dalot's the one I'm most worried about. Sessengon is going to give him a tough match. I'm expecting Herrera to spend most of his time helping out at right-back.
     
    When you dig deep into the psyche of those that are "negative" usually what you'll find is that subconsciously they want United to do poorly enough in order to facilitate managerial change.

    Which is stupid, unrealistic and dare I say anti United. Yes, the Jose era is wearing thin, but just constantly moaning and actively looking for things to moan about isn’t going to change anything.

    Managerial change will happen when it happens. Moaning on the internet before a ball has even been kicked every week is rather tedious. “Why is player x being played when it should be...”.

    Would be nice for once to read the match day thread and it wasn’t just endless predictions of doom, and the regurgitation of tabloid headlines.

    Fellaini, Herrera, Scott as DM, they could replace Matic easily but no one of our players can replace Pogba.
     
    Think the back 4 makes all the sense in the world considering we have to use Young and Dalot - put in the most experienced and proven combination of Smalling and Jones with Ander in midfield.

    The problem is going forward. Hopefully Fulham's weak defense makes our attack look better
     
    It's either this or season 3 of Keeping up with the Kardashians. I choose football.

    Complaining is fine, but ideally you want people to try to help us out. Although I guess we need people knowing some people around the club then so we can send a more direct message.

    When you wake up and it's another day in the gulag...... :lol:

    Which would be fine if there was a coherent message to send. There isn’t. It’s mostly reactions to tabloid headlines. I’ve seen threads where a headline has been proved false on the first page, get endless replies to get rid of Jose because the now proven false headline is so awful.

    So we get rid of Jose, who replaces him? I believe the current pole includes over 20 names. Pogba is the best player we have vs pogba isn’t playing for the team. It goes on and on. There’s no consensus with fans.
     
    Who is this Neyla dude? Can he control a football?
     
    To be fair, he got man of the match at last game. Doesn’t excuse all the other games he was dire in, but last game he played well for the most part.

    He got man of the match because Steve McManaman gave it to him. He was crap. He’s too slow and cumbersome.
     
    Andreas on the bench cuz Shaw got injured in the warmup! Just 11 more injuries and he might get a game
     
    Never mind when Lingard does the same exact thing or Rashford misses goal opportunities because he’s gone to the ref to complain while the ball is still in play. Rooney, Ronaldo...none of them ever guilty of this right?

    Wrong!
    Rashford and Lingard (especially) are limited footballers whereas Pogba was a world record signing with virtually every skill in his locker but he spends too much time prancing about, dithering on the ball, getting caught in possession and then either falling over or flailing his arms about and looking indignant and usually all three.
    No value in him as a dependable player whatsoever......imho.
     
    Not sure how Matic is still in this team. Two defensive midfielders against Fulham. At home.
     

    Even more far fetched a comparison then. Because anyone with eyes can see that the glaring weaknesses in our defending this season have been nothing to do with De Gea. The blame lies almost entirely with the three stooges in the middle, whatever the personnel and combinations, the most constant of whom being Matic.
     
    He won't get high enough for that. He'll be tucked in next to Smalling with Lingard to his right as an auxiliary right-back. Haha
    Yea I get what you're saying. Hopefully it wouldn't be like that this time. Also I want Pogba and Mou to put any differences behind them for the sake of our top 4 hopes. Its bad enough that Martial is unavailable.
