    Mata should thrive in this game, too much space created by rashford and martial for him to find and exploit gaps.

    If Keane were here he would have forced her to bring the child to Old Trafford so Lindelof would play.

    Not trying to make a discussion about it, but she is seen as somewhat of an extreme feminist by some people in Sweden. She recently posted a blog post saying that she wants to shoot all fathers that miss out on their childs birth, no matter what reason he has. She is right in her context of the matter, subject but there is no need to go to the extreme.

    I can't stand her, proper wag who claims herself to be a influencer.

    Calamity Jones and Mata starting are surprises and not good ones, I hope we are using the diamond and not Mata on the right of an unbalanced front 3. I also had Lukaku down over Martial, figured this is the kind of team he'd bag against.

    Is that post tongue in cheek or do you not rate Jones? I thought you said that we shouldn't sign CBs for the sake of it, if they aren't better than what we have? Edit: Genuinely wondering.

    Solskjaer on his team selection
    Here’s what Solskjaer told MUTV:

    It’s a good team that we put out A couple we are still nurturing, Jesse and Rom they aren’t ready to start.

    Victor is injured he has had some issues.

    Luckhurst said he isn't injured:



    Which is weird as I'm assuming he's the same person who does those MEN updates.

    I hope to God this is the final season we have to see the likes of Smalling, Jones, Mata and Young start games for us. Sick of the sight tbh.

    Prepare to be disappointed. Two of the four you mentioned will feature prominently & someone fecking handed Jones a big contract a few months back.

    I've called him Calamity Jones for years, after the character Calamity Jane, as he often has a clanger in him. My point on CB's had nothing to do with Jones though as I thought we should have let him go when his contract ran out this summer but instead we gave him a new 5 year one, so he's not going anywhere, it will be Bailly that will be sold and most of the options mentioned don't impress me more than him if we could get him back to how he was in his first season here.

    Not rightly at all. The player in form should play. Rash has been dogshite for a long time now while Lukaku was in form. Lukaku should be playing now if you want to tell the players that starting is a reward for working hard and performing well.

    Not rightly based on recent performances maybe but it definitely is the right decision that if he chooses Rash as his main striker ahead of Lukaku, especially after he got the job full time it's more understandble as he should plan for the future.

    Anyway, looking to his pre-match interview, looks like the decision to drop Lukaku has to do with the Belgian's injury/fitness condition. So we'll see about who Ole sees as his number 9 in the coming weeks i suppose.
     
    Solskjaer explains his team selection
    Solskjaer speaking to MUTV:

    It’s a good team we put out, there’s a couple we are still nurturing, Jesse, Romelu, they are not ready to play a full game yet.

    Victor is not injured he has had some issues but the team is good, the training week has been really good with a good focus and a good intensity and it looks alright.

    Saw an interview she did with victor on some Swedish / Norwegian chat show. She was very annoying. Victor seems nice though.
     
    Lindelof doing the same as Martial I guess when he was away with his wife. Wasnt there lots of controversy about that?

    Lindelof put his d*ck in crazy. You never do that.

    But if Bailly is sold, we'll lose 2 centre-backs during the summer? How would Lindelof, Smalling, Jones and Tuanzebe be good enough for United going into next season? Especially with Jones as unreliable as he is in terms of injuries. Again not attacking you, just wondering. Maybe for another thread.

    Mrs Lindelof is at Old Trafford
    There’s a lot of discussion about Lindelof and whether or not he will be available.

    He wasn’t spotted with the team last night but his wife Maja has just posted on her Instagram page that she is at Old Trafford with their newborn baby.

    Damn. Thought he just didn't go to the hotel so he could be with wife and baby. There was no mention of his injury during the team update yesterday.

    He did confirm only 3 out but said a couple others they were monitoring.
     
    All a bit odd with Lindelöf. Ole said he wasn't injured but had some issues .

    hopefully all well with him and he's back for the next match

    She took her 5-day old baby to a football match at OT?

    How odd.
     
    Hope we're talking about the game today soon and not Lindelof's Mrs (that we've all decided is a femi-nazi apparently).
