Tuanzebe is a surprise. Hopefully he plays well, both for the benefit of this match and also to push for more regular matches. Otherwise it's the team I was expecting.

Its a strong team but we really could have rested Pogba and possibly Rashford as he came off injured last match. Need them fresh for Arsenal. Disappointed not to see DVB starting a deeper position as think this kind of game would have been ideal for him to get some confidence.A very strong XI but with so much work behind and ahead of us, and a rejuvenated Arsenal coming up this weekend, we could have rested Bruno again and brought him on, if need be, if we found ourselves in an unpleasantly tight match at 60 minutes.
We brought Bruno against Liverpool and it worked out pretty well. But maybe we can pack this one away by HT and get players who need the rest, the rest they need.
Yes indeedy, totally agree.
I don’t know.. I love that Tuanzebe starts but it seems like Lindelof has a long running back problem and Bailly is ... Bailly. Shambles we didn’t get a CB before the first title challenge in years. Hope Axel can fill the gap
Apart from tuanzebe I thought the line up to be expected.What was the point if buying Diallo?? Get rid!
We shouldn't ought to lose with that team, it's not far from the strongest we can put out.
I think we'll hammer these lot tonight.Too strong a line-up. Only 2 back up players in Tuanzebe and Telles
Love his attitude and history, great to hear for you all.
I can’t believe you guys are starting all of Jagielka, Baldock and Bryan honestly. Watch them both have the performance of their lives now
Also, 6 subs. Your injuries are unbelievable.Surprised with Tuanzebe’s inclusion but I think he’s a good prospect so should do well. Hopefully Marcus is 100% fit, although I would’ve preferred if he got rested for the weekend game.6 changes from last Sundays game.
In DeGea, Telles, Tuanzebe,Matic, Bruno, Martial,
Out Henderson, Shaw, Lindelof, McTominay, De Beek, CavaniSell Ole, sack Diallo!strong team. Front 3 all to score. 6-0 united
Matic hasn't started for quite a while and normally plays against the teams fighting relegation. And we likely wouldn't play both Matic and Fred against a team who has struggled as much as Sheff Utd have. Fred's a certainty to start against Arsenal in a few days.
Looks good! Surprised w/ Rashford and Tuanzebe picks but hope we score some goals!He better start Cavani for the sake of my FPL team
I think that's unlikely seeing as he started the last game.
Agreed. We have decent squad options in certain positions.Happy with that.
Get the job done early doors and sub off Pogba, Bruno & Rashford for Saturday against Arsenal.
Didn’t see Tuanzebe starting this. Hope he does well.Would have preferred to rest Rashford for this, but I guess the plan is to finish this as quick as possible.
Let's hope he does, I want to see a confident display with at least one goal from him. It would be huge if he kicked into gear for the second half of the season.
Unacceptable from Ole, considering your FPL team..He better start Cavani for the sake of my FPL team
Thought tonight was perfect chance to give vdb back to back action and see how he goes. Good line up in any caseHappy with that team. Get a good lead then rest rash, pogba and Bruno
I like Matic against these teams. He is calm in possession and he is useful on defensive corners/when the opponent hoofs it.
Yep.
Happy with this, expecting Lindelof, Shaw, McTominay, Fred, and Cavani to probably return to the starting XI against Arsenal.Anyone else get annoyed by the way the team is displayed in the tweets? I know it’s numerical order but it takes me way longer than it should to work out the formation.
Is asking us to start strong and not give any stupid goals away too much to ask for? Let’s get an early goal and hopefully the flood gates open!
His squad management has been top notch to be fair. He certainly isn't afraid to change it up.

We have had almost zero injuries this season which makes things so much easier.No Diallo? Shambles of a decision really. Can't even get some minutes versus bottom of the league team when we're at home.
Heh.....Really hope this an easy night for Man United and we as fans can relax, there have been too nervy games recently; in fact all season.
Sounds logic, agreed.Wheres Bailly?
Why Baldock? But yeah after years of having a great record with injuries, this season has smashed it to pieces.I can’t believe you guys are starting all of Jagielka, Baldock and Bryan honestly. Watch them both have the performance of their lives now
Also, 6 subs. Your injuries are unbelievable.
Matic is basically been a a backup as well. Only started one of the last seven matches. I don't think Greenwood has had too many starts recently either. Ole has actually been doing a brilliant job rotating most of our team with a few exceptions.Delighted that Shaw's getting his rest.I am worried for Sheffield - not enough substitutions on the bench. There should have been some youth players at least?
Yeah, the only thing that worries me about this lineup is it makes me paranoid about the health of Harry’s sidekicks.- Status
