    Utd still doing the line-up graphic in number order. Absolute cretins.

    Love the new graphics but for the love of god why do we persist on doing it by number rather than position
     
    Can't wait for us to enter this game with fire and optimism only to get dominated for long periods of the match and lose 0-1. :lol:

    "How come they can't keep the ball with all these players?"
    "Feck sake, Rashford, ran into a wall of defenders again"
    "FFS. Smith-Rowe. Knew it. 0-1. Long season"
    "They're all over us."
    "We're making them looking like Brazil '70"
    "0-1. Full time. Same crap, different season."
     
    Damn I messed up, I don't know how Rasmus ended up in my prediction and I thought I had Amad starting!!!

    Anyways, love the lineup, would have preferred Garnacho at LW, Rashford at CF and Amad at RW with Bruno behind them, but this is a strong 11, Mazraoui starting at RB most likely and Dalot at LB to deal with Adama.

    The biggest observation we should be making here is that about half our team begins with M

    Signing players whose names start with M is a factor in our transfers!! Confirmed!!

    So It's basically going to be the same side from last season starting our first game of the season, plus Mazraoui. ETH's tactics will be the biggest indicator here on rather we've actually learned any lessons from last season. Especially the start of last season vs Wolves.

    Seems like his tactics all together are going to change this season. We’re using Bruno as a false 9 and Mount in his best position. Obviously as the season goes on we’ll have Zirkzee in that role. Our interchange passes look a lot better aswell.

    Add to that "feck sake yet more injuries"
     
    When did Roy start going bald? Big patch at the back of his head
     
    Np at all with that starting 11 and the fact we have decent options off the bench is promising. Looking a lot better than last season!
     
    Don't really understand why Garno isn't starting.... I know he was at the Copa America but so was Licha. Would much prefer him to Rashford
     
    Strong bench for depth in every area, though very clear issue at fullback depth. Praying for dalot and mazraoui to stay fit. We really need more depth there.
     
    Sancho not being in the squad is the best part of that team sheet.

    I hope Mazraoui is up to speed.
     
    De ligt on the bench. Can’t wait for the media to run with the narrative “This guy is a waste of money, even Ten hag doesn’t think he’s better than Maguire.”

    Nah.

    ''What a run by Amad''
    ''Great ball by Bruno''
    ''Flipping hell! Casemiro rolling back the years''
    ''Loving this new look United team''
    ''We're going to win the league''
    ''3-0. Full time. Roll on Brighton!''
     
    I have been eagerly waiting for this game all week. There is an undeniable aura around the team right now. Exciting times are ahead. Mazraoui at RB, De Ligt and Martinez at CB and Dalot covering LB feels like a solid setup. Mainoo and Bruno pick themselves. Casemiro because we have no other option. Amad deserves to start. Garnacho should get the nod ahead of Rashford on the left. I would like to see Mount in a false 9 role.

    A 4-2-4 formation could work brilliantly today. I am predicting a 4-0 victory for United. Lets go.
     
    that Fulham side looks average as feck. easy 4-3 win in the last minute of the game.
     
    Sky sports showing a 4-2-2-2. Mount and Bruno up top. Surely not?
     
    Rashford ahead of Garnacho is not based on merit. Anyway hopefully Rashford had a great game.
     
    PL app has Mount & Bruno in defence, Martinez in midfield and Dalot and Casemiro up front :lol:

    For gods sake guys, read up. He’s had no preseason. He was never gonna start. Same as Zirkzee
     
    Mazraoui debut in the PL, first game for United, at LB against Adama traore:smirk:. Hope he’s fit enough because he will be tested.
