    Surely it' time for:

    DDG
    Valencia Bailly Rojo Young
    Matic Pogba
    Rashford Ibra Martial
    Lukaku

    ... it's Newcastle and that's goals galore..

    I know but I can dream, Ibra often drops deep anyway, sometimes infuriatingly So and Martial has worked on his defensive side somewhat but I agree..

    On a different note, would you like to see that line up? Didn' know if people thought it would be too imbalanced

    Should be done at some point, but with Rojo, Ibra, Pogba all back from long-term injuries (the two former at least) I doubt all of them will start. That's probably United's best team though IMO so I'd like to see what that side is capable of at some point.
     
    I think Pogba was ready before the break and he'll start. Ibra and Rojo aren't ready for 90 mins, maybe make the bench. I'd like to Ibra get on in the 2nd half some time. Should be a typical Jose line up.

    DeGea
    Valencia Jones Bailly Young
    Matic
    Fellaini Pogba
    Mata Mhiki Rashford
    Lukaku
     
    The craic (attention seeking) and hypercool handshakes in the dressing room will be unmerciful.

    I'm sure the ref won't mind.
     
    De Gea
    Valencia Bailly Smalling/Jones Young
    Matic Pogba
    Mata Mkhi Rashford
    Lukaku

    Subs: Romero, Rojo, Jones/Smalling, Herrera, Lingard, Martial, Ibra

    Really should be Martial instead of Mkhi but I'm not hopeful... Pogba will probably get an hour or so with Rojo and Ibra maybe getting the last half an hour if we're winning comfortably.

    Can't play with 12 unfortunately.
     
    Team should be: De Gea Valencia Smalling Bailly Blind Matic Pogba Rashford Mata Martial Lukaku
     
    Isn't it martial's turn to start? Why is everyone putting rashford in their prediction lineup?
     
    Think both Pogba and Zlatan will be on the bench only tomorrow.

    We'll line up as this :

    DDG
    Valencia - Bailly - Smalling - Young
    Matic - Fellaini
    Mata - Mikhi - Rashford
    Lukaku​

    You couldn’t blame one for one having one of the wrist for that line up, what, what.

    Yep. It'd be madness for Ibra to start straight away after his lay off.
    Even Pogba might need to be eased in, we don't really know how fit he is
     
    Matic & Fellaini should be enough. Pogba, Ibra and maybe Martial off the bench.

    I swear a lot of internet fans haven't actually noticed that this Rafa led version are quite solid.

    11 games played, 10 goals conceded. Only 10 goals scored too, so not sure where goalfest talk is coming from
     
    Unusually for an international break I've not actually thought much about the football and time's flown by. Must be because I've been so busy, but I almost forgot that we're playing tomorrow.

    As I said when this thread first opened, beating Rafa would be a nice remedy after the hurt of losing to Chelsea. Hopefully Pogba will be featuring in some capacity, although I wouldn't expect him to play the full 90 mins.
     
    Rojo directly into the starting line-up? I find that weird considering he must be beyond rusty after nearly a year on the sidelines.
     
    DeGea
    Valencia Bailly Smalling Young
    Matic Fellaini Pogba
    Lingard Rashford
    Lukaku

    Subs: Ibrahimovic, Martial, Rojo

    Manchester United 3 Newcastle 0
     
    Finally. Footy is back... and so is our saviour.
    Bring it on.
     
    Lingard instead of Martial or Rashford? That complete non-entity of the player should not be anywhere near the starting line up, let alone getting the look in the team in place of those two.
