How are you today.Not looking forward to this game at all. Hoping for the best, but we are clearly not ready.
Wish we could play them once Ugarte could start, and most new signings were properly integrated. Having fecking Luke shaw available and Erik having figured out how to play his new squad would also be helpful.
I think you underestimate the agenda against ten Hag.Looking forward to a disciplined performance with a narrow but deserved win, as it’s been the case for United in big games.
Don't ask me because I am an optimistic person. But yes I am hoping we will win. As others have said, Mount will be missed because of his energy and pressing. But we are at home so, yes I am hopeful.Casemiro not listed by MEN amongst the players so far as having arrived at OT: Andre Onana, Diogo Dalot, Noussair Mazraoui, Harry Maguire, Lisandro Martinez, Christian Eriksen, Bruno Fernandes, Kobbie Mainoo, Antony, Amad, Joshua Zirkzee, Alejandro Garnacho and Ethan Wheatley.
Would be our luck, that on the huge game when we're already down to thin numbers in CM with no Ugarte, Mount or the sold McTominay, that we get a late injury to Casemiro and leave us even shorter there - even for starters!
Hopefully he'll be available and that short numbers at least only a factor off the bench.
You could be right my friend. I would really love to see him succeed because I am fed up with the rotating managers door. And this year, he has the benefit of a professional structure supporting him. So it is up to him now. No more excuses.
That would be perfect.We'll win. We've got to. The next two weeks will be far too grim to envision if we don't, so it's just not possible for us to lose.
3-2. Amad (left-foot curler), Casemiro (header), and Zirkzee (volley) the scorers after Salah (twat) gets his usual couple of goals against us.If we start with the right team we’ll have a chance. No Rashford please!Unfortunately I can see us getting trounced if we concede an early goal today.Let's fecking go
Hey now, give us some credit. We're just as capable of getting trounced even if we manage to hold out and look promising for the entire first half.2-2 draw all over it for meI
As if we score 2 goals
It hasn't even started to become a problem yet. Let's wait and see.
I'd rather have one Ugarte than two poor midfielders in Amrabat and Mctominay.
We might lack midfield depth off the bench vs Liverpool but it's matchday today so I refuse to be negative for the next 4 hours
Well two of our three first choice midfield are available so that's good. If Casemiro turns up (there's a rumour he's injured) then we might make a game of it until the 70th minute. But realistically I'm not sure I buy into his new slimfast pre-season rebirth as a snappy terrier. The old red card Casemiro will be back sooner rather than later. And once Mainoo gets gassed they'll do a Madrid and run riot in the last twenty minutes.
Exactly, @wolvored forgot about Amad's injury time winner to make it 3-2.I
As if we score 2 goals
Definitely has the potential to be a bit of a PR disaster for Ten Hag and could play into the media narrative against him.Unless we're scoring from the wings, I can't see us scoring at all. We need one or two of Amad and Garnacho to be on their game.30 mins to team, surely just Zirkzee for Mount and maybe De Ligt for Maguire?
Sounds like no Casemiro too. Not good.
He's injured?
Source??
Per the usual twitter rumours yes but we’ll see. Not confident we have anyone whatsoever to replace him
typical of the past 12 monthsL O L
No Casemiro and no Mount?
Okay, campers, rise and shine, and don't forget your booties 'cause it's cooooold out there today.
Unless Maguire's injured, I see no reason why ten Hag would change the back four that, on the whole, has looked relatively solid.
Zirkzee for Mount is the obvious change, although ten Hag could go with Rashford up top (hope he doesn't) with Amad and Garnacho on the wings.

Ugarte should have been wrapped up ages ago. It's so frustrating and piss poor planning once again from the club.Collyer to the rescue?left ourselves a little light this week with mctominay leaving, the timing is bad with mount out and ugarte not available. Can only hope the defence is a bit more solid with new signings and martinez.
Id play garnacho, zirkzee and rashford as the forwards (personally wouldnt play rashford but has a fair record v liverpool and ten hag will start him) There's no point doing this false 9 thing if the midfield option is collyer or eriksen
Yeah that agenda against him doing mad shit like playing without a midfield and making daft subs. If only the agenda stopped, we’d win every week.
Had to wait for McT to sign for Napoli first.
Will have to be, as he's the only option that will match the energy and grit of Casemiro. Alternatively, ten Hag could go with Eriksen, with Mainoo as the more reserved midfielder, but I think Eriksen would struggle physically.
It was confirmed by various journos before we signed him that we hadn’t registered him on time to play today. He had to be registered before noon on Friday. Here’s a report from this morning further confirming it:

I posted when The MEN listed who'd arrived that it was worrying Casemiro wasn't there yet - as we can't afford any more CM absences for this game.
I'm not on Twitter, but worrying to read on here that there's now suggestions on there that he will be missing.
It really sums up our luck if so - always specific positions getting a flood of absentees and leaving us short!Searched twitter for Casemiro and cannot see anything about him being out
Can't see anything either.Hearing Garnacho for Amad and also De Ligt starting.- Status
