ihe might be a better defender, giving more freedom and security with elanga playing right wing.However I would not say he is a better player overall, and playing against a watford i would player the more attacking fullback.

Pogba will be playing higher up the pitch looking at the team thoughExcellent line up! Well done RalfLike the line up, Matic will offer a bit of stability till he gets tired in second half, Lindelof deserves to start over Maguire likewise Telles over Shaw.
shame for Dalot, thought he had done enough to get in over AWB unless Ralf just wants to try him again to see if he’s learnt anything in training and hopefully Sancho is just rested whilst wanting the extra midfielder in their.
Was that English language?
Rested.Good to see Elanga start, deserved based on performances and contributions.
Probably a 4222, Elanga alongside Ronaldo to help in the pressing plan if any.
Not an easy game, because we never make it easy for ourselves.
Wink wink, nudge nudge, say no more!Fred...
AWB? He is British right?Time to help a relegation team again I think.
Pogba and Matic together is always fun.
There a rumor that the player this article is about is Dalot, hence why he was dropped at Leeds. It's the Mirror though. It's supposedly about a player who ignored instructions after a 45 min individual training session. I'm not lending credence to it but Dalot's absence is so sudden after his run
https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/ralf-rangnick-man-utd-atletico-26298001No Maguire and Shaw so we will keep a clean sheet today.
We are very charitable and it is quite possible that we will be donating another 3 pts today.
This will not be a walk in the park like some are predicting.
I've seen some people think that we'll score 5 goals today, which is insanity.Cant be otherwise he would have played Donnie every match!
We don't know for sure, how Donnie performed in training.
I do find it strange that none of the coaches rated Donnie enough, to recommend that he be in the starting XI.People acting like Watford aren't going to be quaking in their heels when the famous Man United roll into town
4-4-2 diamond, perhaps.
Needless to say, this is a must-win - it is our final game before the brutal run of fixtures starts.People acting like Watford aren't going to be quaking in their heels when the famous Man United roll into town
"To tremble with fear. Often used sarcastically."
Thanks, learned something new. Never heard it before.4-1-3-2 would be interesting. I’m gutted this is 3pm kick off and we don’t get to watch it, gonna be a good match.
Sancho too
Could be this is it. Otherwise it just doesn't make sense for him to be dropped so suddenly and completely. I mean, Lindelof started in his place.
its more a case of freshening things up (rather than dropping players) after getting back very late mid week from Madrid. We are historically poor following midweek champions league games.
A good move imo and plenty on the bench if we need them.
I knowGutted no Sancho. Maguire, Shaw and Rashford glad to see benched though. AWB back doesn’t fill me with much confidence mind.
I expect another struggle but hopefully get the three points, which are a must.
I agree. He was one of the first played to warm up but didn't come on. Something is amiss for sure. Lindelof didn't cover himself in glory in that matchLindelöf and Varane together in defence.
I hope we destroy them.Hope we give them a good spanking and get revenge for that 4-1 defeat!Great team. Love Ralf!Could this be a 3-5-2 with Matic slotting between the CB's?Personel today seems tailor made for 4-4-2 diamondThis is on premier sports in ireland.So are we going to be first half fc or second half fc today ?Of all of our midfield prospects who didn't work out in the last decade, Cleverley was one of my favoritesWell done to RR for having the balls to bench Maguire, Respect.Come on United!Come on boys, we owe these feckers a hiding.- Status
