Good!

State of some posters. the back 5 is pretty much what everybody anticipated and excited to see axel and bailly together. Matic, van de beek and Greenwood were guarantees.

So as far as I can tell, lingard is the only thing getting people worked up. With pellistri out, who are all these youngsters people expected not to mention the very valid point that the squads probably have to be fairly separate at the moment

no matic

seeing Bailly There....

please don't tell me it means Lindelof is back into first 11 for Burnley and LFC

Oh please god no. Bailly has certainly earned his place there.

MetoTTT · Jan 9, 2021

If Harry get a yellowvs Burnley wouldn't play vs Liverpool.

Sandikan · Jan 9, 2021

Had pencilled a line up out with a pal last week and basically had 10 of those 11.
Just wasn't sure who would play the McTom role.

Ideal selection with Ighalo to come on later if needs be.

DickDastardly · Jan 9, 2021

Should be good enough to score and win...

Happy to see Mason in the CF position.
Also happy to see VDB in a deeper position.

Andersonson · Jan 9, 2021

I got 10 correct. Didnt have Scott. Nice lineup that. Backup CB's and a chance for Greenwood and VdB to prove a point.

Different competition.

Holocene · Jan 9, 2021

Will this be Greenwood's first opportunity as a striker at senior level?

Lash · Jan 9, 2021

Interested to see zickernackel, had quite the season at Bodo. That whole team did.

Gordon S · Jan 9, 2021

Pretty much every starter gets some much needed rest and some people are still livid?

Renegade · Jan 9, 2021

Thought Ighalo was going to get a game haha

Mctominay then. One of them was sure to start.

I don't think I've ever seen such blatant lies about what was expected with a line up and there's been some whoppers through the years

MetoTTT · Jan 9, 2021

Happy with this line up.

lex talionis · Jan 9, 2021

Sensible by Ole, fascinating for us to see if there will be any cohesion. Pretty humbling for VdB to know that this is what he’s been reduced to.

If Bruno is starting it’s unforgivable

Wow, some of you guys really are dramatic!

RedDevil@84 · Jan 9, 2021

Decent line-up. Rotation was much needed. We are not Liverpool to be playing once every 10 days

GMoore23 · Jan 9, 2021

9/11
I thought Matic would start over Mctominay but in hindsight, Mctominay has been poor the last 2 games so has probably been dropped for Matic in our next league game.
I thought Ighalo would get the nod over lingard but Ole made it clear in his presser that Ighalo wouldn't be starting.

Happy overall as lots of the first team were running on empty. I still think this team can get the job done.

I've talked about the Burnley game.

pablo__p · Jan 9, 2021

A bit astounded by no youngsters, at least on the bench.
Also, would rather not see Bailly hurt himself in such game.

Other than that I count on Greenwood and Vdb to be the game changers tonight.
Vamos!

Who do you want to be given a chance?

Galbraith, Mejbri, Puigmal, Elanga...

Walters_19_MuFc · Jan 9, 2021

People on the Caf: Hope we rotate most of our players.

Also, people on the Caf when the team is announced: What is this PE teacher doing putting out such a crap side?

Some of you lot are lost!

FizzyWomack · Jan 9, 2021

Don’t see what’s wrong with the team, think it’s a sensible lineup by Ole.

Good to see some players get rested, this will only benefit us.

Would love to see Donny have a good game, hoping Tuanzebe can have a decent game too.

Let’s be having you!

My only issue is we now know for certain he won’t use the Maguire Bailly pairing in upcoming PL games, after they looked very good and made us a better, high line playing team.

Lucky SAF then. How often would he have been sacked from fabs these days?

He was pretty poor in the cups too overall. I often was angry with him too. Incredible league record though. If Ole wins the league then it changes things of course.

Expect a full strength squad with no rotation for this one. The PE teacher will be scared to get knocked out of cups in back to back matches, (especially this one since it's a Championship side, he's clearly desperate to get a trophy), him rotating against Instanbul and that ultimately being the reason why we are out of the CL put the fear into him about rotation/rest. So no rest going into the Liverpool game because we can't rest against Burnley. Meanwhile Liverpool will have 8 days off before that, while we'll have played in 2 more games between today and then and only have 4 days off before the match.

Awkward

Ah match day threads.... I forget how idiotic they can be.

Absolute nonsense, days from having the chance to go 3 clear at the top of the PL.

hobbers · Jan 9, 2021

Surely that's Williams at right back and Tuanzebe at CB?

It's good Ole is resting the big guns but frankly we could do without the pity appearance for Lingard. Martial has been so shite this season and with Cavani coming back it's probably safe to play him.
He clearly needs all the help he can get to salvage his confidence levels.

Borys · Jan 9, 2021

Good lineup. Premier League level striker, midfield duo, and half of the defence should be enough.

Are resident Ole outters hoping we lose today?

It's baffling seeing United calling a manager a PE teacher.. The times eh.

this is bollocks. VDB has yet to grab his opportunity - he didn’t do it yet. If he has a fabulous match today and manages to orchestrate the gameplay, then he will give Ole thoughts. But if he is invisible again ... so let’s see

bosnian_red · Jan 9, 2021

Full rotation but still a strong team, can't be mad at that lineup.
