Why. He has been rubbish whenever he has played. Even Mata has been better.. and that isnt a high bar anymore.

10/11 i EXPECTED Pereira to start,.
I did expect Maquire to start but was hoping he would be rested, hope Ole has not rushed him back and regrets it !Nothing much to complain about. If that team isn't good enough to beat Norwich then we are really really bad.Mata was decent against Wolves so can see why he's inHopefully Shaw is done, hes had so many chances and just ends up ruining things.That bench
James, Gomes and Greenwood as the non defensive options.. 2 kids from the reserves.. and James.. first season in the premier league.
fecking hell woodward.. do your fecking job.Diamond?Ole is so stupid risking Maguire here in the easiest game of the season.
Desperate actions from a desperate man.LINGARD IS ILL !!
please stop asking where is Lingard...Would rather have seen Gomes or Greenwood over Mata but at least they’re in the squad.
If we can bring them on and give them 30 mins I’ll be happy.Where is Lingard?Mata came off the bench twice and played a couple great balls in good goalscoring positions. He's played ahead of Lingard who is comfortably worse and some posters still moan.
Just feck off.
This is what happens when you don't follow the manager's press conference as bad as they are.If Fred takes our set pieces today...
James needs a rest, but I would have given Gomes the start, we know what Mata can do. And risking Maguire here is nuts.
Peirera is startingMata whilst declined massively, is well suited to this game and you can bet he will be directly involved in Martial or Rashford bagging a goal today.
Apart from Pogba, when was the last time we had a peak world class creative midfielder in our team? Scholes in 2008? #BrunoGreenwood on the bench, Mata and Pereira playing, yikes.Is that maybe a 4-4-2 diamond instead of a 4-2-3-1?
--------------------------------De Gea-------------------------------
AWB----------Lindeloff---------------Maguire----Williams
-------------------------------Matic-----------------------------
---------Perierra------------------------Fred----------------
------------------------------Mata------------------------
------------Martial----------------Rashford-------------I dont expect our coaching, if any is given, to have improved this week such to see a cohesive structure to our play. Norwich will probably play the better football and we will just rely on individual brilliance or penalties to score.Comfortable 3-1 win today.
Rash and martial with the goals
Yep, they can at least follow you MEN posts in "presser" thread, mr Luckhurst. Hihihihihihi
Think Pereira or Mata will go on the wingRisking Maguire and playing Matic, Pereira and Mata together? Oh, jeez.Where is Lingard?
I know, i know..
It'll end up that way no matter how they start as Mata always cuts in.
See nothing wrong in starting Mata. This squad needs serious rotation and Mata is one of the few that can break open defenses with his passing.
He's intelligent, probably too intelligent for some of his teammates.Young gone?
I fear it is a howler and got little trust in our medical team.Expected Greenwood, not Mata.
Shocked to see he's started Williams over Shaw
No matter Williams' performance today, it's the right thing to do. Shaw needs to step up.14:18Richard Fay
Solskjaer explains team
This is what Ole Gunnar Solskjaer told MUTV before the game:
Yeah this has got "injured for the Liverpool game " written all over it.
Yap.Mata-Pereira-Matic through the middle......feck.
Greenwood has been a first teamer all season?That bench
James, Gomes and Greenwood as the non defensive options.. 2 kids from the reserves.. and James.. first season in the premier league.
fecking hell woodward.. do your fecking job.
Yeah I dont think he can afford a loss today the pressure would be immense from all angles. That would possibly be the last straw for woodwardLingard dropped or in Raiola's care?- Status
