I wonder if people remember we beat Manchester City 3 times last season with this setup.I'd rather see Bailly start instead of Lindelof but other than that it's a good team.
ET then pens
ET then pens if needed
i think it’s straight to pens.
Extra time and then pens. Don't quote me though
Hell be DM imo. You arent isolating 34 year old Fernandinho against our attack
surprised with this.VAR in use today, so we should get our penalty...We've kept clean sheets on the last three occasions of playing City. The centre back pairing for those games was Lindelof and Maguire. Of course, I've probably fecking jinxed it now but just thought I'd point it out for those going mad that Bailly isn't starting.
That said, based on his form, I too felt Bailly was certain to start but Lindelof and Maguire have also done well together and I'm hoping that can continue tonight.
Might be wrong, just guessingNot the first time Ole has dropped an in form Bailly in favour of returning Lindelof. Hope it pays off
I would have thought the Watford game made more sense to do that though, as this is a semi final against a very good team.
5 subs though so not all bad
perhaps he needs a rest. First time he’s played 3-4 games in a row for what 18 months?
I agree why not play him, it’s a semi and a derby, him in the team is the only time we haven’t looked weak at the back and we seen the need for pace on Sunday when Chelsea got stung after that Free kick.
I don't understand what those odds mean, so I'm none the wiser.
Exactly.
Bailly has been playing a LOT recently. Not resting him is inviting a injury.
We beat Manchester City 3 times in 2019/2020 with this setup. We're doing ourselves a disservice by pretending this isn't going to work because one CB isn't The Flash. We have evidence it does.
We could still lose, Manchester City isn't some pedestrian garbage team we should expect to always beat, but we sure as hell can very well win.
Just decimal rather than fractional I think - I
i.e.united 4/1 and City just shy of 2/1.
The state of you.
Did I say anything about accepting? Players have average games ALL the time, unless you think all of Fergie's games were perfection from every player.
I spoke against you saying he is woeful, which is just clear overexaggerating, nothing to do with accepting.
Hope you can improve your quality so we can have you promoted soon enough.
Last time was 3 years agoHappy to see McFred starting this game. It's going to be proper battle to control that midfield, and the two of them are perfect for that. Then later, if it turns out to be a stalemate, you bring Pogba on for a bit more creativity once legs are getting tired. United should be more fit for this game having had more rest, so it makes sense to prepare for dragging out a battle, and then kill them off in the latter stages of the game with a bit of quality from fresh legs.
Edit: Ffs, already forgot Pogba is starting on the left (which btw messed up my line-up prediction).Last edited: The state of you.

Calm down son you're getting hysterical
Exactly. Agianst Villa, Bailly started his 4th game in a row for the first time since 2017. Expecting a 5th is tempting fate.Good to see VAR back in. I am as calm as ever. You the one with the hyperbole.
Enjoy the match, son. I certain will try.
I'll keep my money in my wallet thanks.
Alright, change for changes sake then?
Agree that Bailly might need to rest, but also Lindelof recovering a back problem shouldn’t be stressed. This highlights that Ole doesn’t trust Tuanzebe, which is a problem.
Twitter but seems on?Happy to see Bailly rested. He needs to be handled carefully with his injury record. I'm sure hes being rested for the burnley and Liverpool games.
Good lineup overall. Hopefully greenwood and vdb can come in after halftime. I am as calm as ever. You the one with the hyperbole.
Enjoy the match, son. I certain will try.
hugs
Pogba is in the starting lineup.
Yeah, just remembered. My bad.
If that means Bailly having a rest, with him being injury prone, I'm down.Strong midfield from both teams. Could be key. I expect to Augero for them at some point.Did we get our penalty yet Mr Klopp ?!'Marathon bet' as a sponsor. Sophisticated.- Status
