Yes we do, Eriksen, Rashford has played that role, so has Fred, Garnacho would probably do OK, heck I bet Licha would do a good job there as well!

Ten hag isn't the first manager who has come to the premier league and tried to never rotate. They all eventually learn to rotate in these types of games. It's not a coincidence. It's not arrogance. I love Ten Hag as manager, but he isn't some magician who can find out how to compete in the league, 2 domestic cups and Europa League, playing pretty much your strongest 11 every 3 days and it not come back to bite you in the ass.
I hope I'm wrong. But I worry for the Newcastle cup final if he doesn't rotate before it. And any shit performance will most likely be down to tired legs up against fresh legs.channel for this?I can't believe we've gone so strong here.
I didn't expect a complete second string but at least expected a bit of rotation. Certainly Garnacho and one or both of McTominay and Fred. Disappointed to not see Sancho on the bench either.
ITV 4 I believe
Nah, I'm just Ish.
Ish in the potholes.
Ish on TV.
Ish in the failing municipalities.
Ish wherever I go.
Hey! I am British!
National motto - Will that do?
ITV4Wout weghorst first game at old Trafford!! Hope it’s a good one. I’ve gone 4-0 to us. Will take more though..: we’re due to leather someone soon.
legend thanks
Not even that worried about Bruno. But Rashford, Casemiro and Eriksen... Really? Rashford got a spinal stress fracture from this sort of overpaying in the past, Eriksen and Casemiro are both 30.
It'll come back to bite us in the ass without a doubt, and ten hag will learn from it. As Pep did, as Klopp did.
If we can steal it and sell it, then it'll doFirst team are being run into the ground because our backups can’t pull their weight8/11 but I changed my team with 5 mins to spare and took 3 out, the 3 that are starting !!
Based on what? Garnacho and Pellistri have been good most times they've come onI also worry about the rotation of players. Lot of games left at the business end of the season.ETH is a bit like Ole in terms of playing the same players over and over again
It doesn't matter. Those shit back-ups still have to be used in this situation.
Players will be broken down by mid-March.Let's hammer them by half time and sub out the big boysI can't believe we've gone so strong here. I didn't expect a complete second string but at least expected a bit of rotation. Certainly Garnacho and one or both of McTominay and Fred. Disappointed to not see Sancho on the bench either.
Have you seen our back line? We can't take too many out with Lindelof, Maguire and AWB on the pitch.
Garnacho's been relatively poor the last couple of times as a sub, I think he'll start midweek, though Pellestri would start this one
Stopped reading at "again"
You are not wrong.His fullbacks are injured/sick so has had to play the backups. He is resting his first choice CB's. We have seen what we are like when we mess with the midfield, that is one of our big problem areas. Still think Garnacho is better when he comes on. Pellistri looks good, but also naive at times, another one to come on. Sancho still being out is another problem and one less player he can choose.
ThisAny way to minimise that godawful sidebar on the ITV web player?Just tuned in now, not slabhead! Please.
Ah that must be it
Nah. The backups aren't being given a chance to show what they can do bar 20-30 minute sub appearances. Garnacho has started games previously due to injury and done fine. Fred can start (and have a great game) vs Man City but not vs Reading? It's a nonsense excuse. Ten Hag simply doesn't like to rotate, and it is something that will inevitably change when this bites us in the ass, as happens with every manager.
Correct. Our midfield has no alternatives that are good enough. Fred maybe, but apart from that nothing.
You are also not wrong.Glad to see a strong team but would have liked to see Pellestri & Garnacho start.
Not arguing with the boss though
Is McT injurerd/sick or just not chosen?
The guy learns very quickly but he does make mistakes.
I also wonder if he's underestimating a 38-game season while his experience is purely of 34-game countries where they don't have a second cup. And we've also got the EL to worry about.
I hope it doesn't damage our top 4 chances and everything beyond that is a bonusThought Bruno was singing along to The Stone Roses thereStrangely disappointed in that line up, unnecessarily strong team and a wasted opportunity to rest tired players.Blimey, didn’t know Andy Carroll was still playing competitively.What's Darwin Nunez doing playing for Reading?Oh I just sort of assumed Andy Carroll retired like 5 years ago.- Status
