That's that for Ighalo then
He's already left.I don’t think people realise how deep the squad is compared to rivals like Leicester. We can absolutely afford to bring players like Matic, VDB, Telles, Martial. It doesn’t need to be 5 changes a game, but Ole definitely needs to be smart with rotation.
I’d save Rashford if there’s any doubt, while potentially giving Shaw a rest. Bruno and Fred will back in after resting against Liverpool.
Didn't know that, thought there might have been chance of 5 minutes tonight. I guess there's not much point with no fans in the ground.No Diallo
Diallo isn’t in the squad :/Have to start the game on front foot and try to get a goal or two in the first 30 minutes. We cannot allow the game to drag on with 0-0. Have to put this game to rest.I really hope we play a great game today. We need a game where we actually dominate the proceedings from the get go. A performance where we dominate possession for most part of the game and play those small quick passes and involve more players in attack. I really want to see a dominating performance from us for once because we've been excellent in bits in every game we've played up until now but we haven't truly dominated a team through and through. I hope this game is the one.What's Sheffield United team looking like injury/fitness wise? Have they not got a load of first team players out?
That’s terrible
How I long for that to happen. 3-0 by half time please!That’s terrible
Think he only gets in Premier League squad with an injury to one of our wide forward players which is a real shame
I don’t think so, it’ll be when he’s up to scratch, which is fair enough.Rashy will get a rest as well as maybe, Shaw.
Martial in, with Greenwood and possibly Donny subbed on but think Cavani and Bruno will play at least 60.
Think we’ll have to wait for the EL to see anything of Diallo
Be quite funny if he turns out against the ArseNo Diallo
Yeah McBurnie, Mousset, Egan, JO'C, Berge, Osborn and a couple of others are out. 3 starters and a couple more who'd be in with a shout of starting so a few important ones missing.
Yeah they have like 5 players in the covid protocol and 2-3 more injuries I think.
That's why I am staggered he couldn't make the squad tonight, makes me wonder if Ole realises they have all these players unavailable
hope that’s the case.
No chance Cavani is going start back to back three times unless it means he’s not going to start in arsenal game. I think we will see rashford, martial and Greenwood while Cavani will get rest for arsenal game.
I had thought Ole would definitely have him in the squad for this game and if we were comfortably winning, might even give him some minutes at the end.That’s terrible
If not today, I don’t see him making the bench until the West Brom game. Think he may need another couple weeks to train with the lads so he can understand the plays better.
I probably would rather they are be available because they are doing bad with them.That’s terrible
There's no rush
Didn't Ole say it wouldn't be long till he made his debut last week?
How long away is not long? No idea how long that means.
Not long means short term, no?
In the context of us being half way through the season I assume he meant weeks as opposed to months.
It has been weeks bro
Who knows when it will be, I trust Ole will throw him in when he’s ready.
I expected him to contribute 10 G+A till the end of season - he needs to play for that...It has been weeks bro
Who knows when it will be, I trust Ole will throw him in when he’s ready.
He said it last week though
He said he'd impressed in training blah blah and it wouldn't be long.
Yeah he's done a very good job in managing young players and giving them minutes at the right time so I'm not going be moaning if we don't see him for a while.Any word on Bailly? Not in the squad, right?
Bit weird given he's hardly played first team football in Italy.
35 mins according to whoscored! Let's be realistic in our expectations.
Is it only me who sees a buldge in Maguires pants and Rashford having a look.....I cant unsee it.......
Realistic if he starts to play often. Normal return from our attacker I would think
Fred and VdB in a two man midfield. Is all I ask.
Realistically he may not even become a regular starter next season.
He's completely unproven at this level and is only 18.
I would love to see this.
Couldn't find much on Bailly from today, so can't say it's 100% confirmed. If it's precaution before Arsenal then it's most likely valid decision.

That's unfortunate, but hopefully Lindelof can build on his performance against Liverpool today.
It's great having three competent CB's at our disposal. I can't remember the last time that was the case.
Bulge? Looks more like a nubbin to me.Is it only me who sees a buldge in Maguires pants and Rashford having a look.....I cant unsee it.......
