    It's the bigger teams that we thrived against last season though, despite struggling against the lower half teams. At least we're grinding out wins. That away performance vs Villa was promising IMO.

    Yeah true but I don't want to take the risk and hope we'll do well again against them. Make sure we have enough power at least, but then again, I am just a natural worrier
     
    I gotta watch the F1 and the football at the same time :lol:
     
    WTF i am sure that i put Romero in my prediction lineup and was so happy that i scored 11/11 for the first time just to see that i put De Gea into prediction lineup... Could be that bug? If not i was probably not careful when i clicked on Romero, definetly i didn't put De Gea in on purpose.

    Same thing happened to me last week and the mods didn't do anything about it, put me off playing now.
     
    Whoop whoop 11 out of 11!!! Good start to the day.

    Really pleased to see Schweinsteiger start today. I don't want to be too critical of Carrick but he's not started the season brilliantly (he actually never does) and his partnership with Schneiderlin I'm not sure about.

    Today Schneiderlin can do what he does best and protect the back 4 whilst letting Schweinsteiger pull the strings.

    We finally have that Schmidfield.
     
    Got 11/11 but dropped 100 places. No idea how this works.
     
    I keep predicting Herrera to start in the hope he will soon. 10/11 today.
    I did, then thought better. Trouble is I had also dropped Januzaj. I just want Ander to get a start sometime, because if all of a sudden he needs him it will be the manager fault if he isn't match ready.
     
    I knew I'd get one wrong today. After the presser I had a good idea that BFS would start but I had already put an unchanged side in and decided not to change it.

    I think the BFS will probably get 60 mins today before being swap with Carrick.
     
    Could we not have a stickied megathread for predictions, complaints about bugs and all that stuff? Is it just me that doesn't want to read all "11/11" "10/11, put Carrick over BFS :(" posts that don't contain any comment about the match itself?
     
    Looking forward to seeing Bastian start and how it changes the game. We've seen him come on and change the tempo but will he do so from the start. I felt like Carrick and Schneiderlin were both a bit conservative early in the game and stayed further back to help recycle possession rather then add in the attack.
     
    Good to see Bastian start and Adnan keep his place, I had a sneaking feeling Hernandez might start with Rooney as the #10.

    Hope so I've got Carrick/Hererra/Chica for subs o_o
     
    Hoping LVG has the balls to sub Rooney 2 games running if it isn't happening

    Come on Chico :)
     
    I am delighted that Januzaj keeps getting starts at this stage. This could very well be the season he takes a step up from promising prospect and establishes himself as a top player, just like we had all hoped when he first broke through. The prospect of Memphis and Januzaj both realizing their full potential fills me with glee, and we must remember to enjoy watching them on the road to that!
     
    Full 11 correct, got done like a few by forgetting Fellaini was still banned
     
    Apparently Mbemba has only played right back once before in his career. Lets hope Memphis terrorises him on the left wing.
     
    :lol: What was that from Rooney? I know its only a pre match warm up but to hit over like that was a bit weird
