Manchester United 1:1 West Ham United

Happy with that, I think. Our best football last season come with a midfield three of Carrick, Herrera and Fellaini, which had a blend of everything. Hoping it will be two pushed on, as opposed to two deep and one pushed forward.

Also hoping its Lingard on the right, Martial on the left and Rashford down the middle.

Big game for us. We need to go for this from the off.

YouOnlyLiveTwice · Mar 13, 2016

This is the team i wanted so no complaints.

I hope it's more of a 4-3-3 than a 4-2-3-1 though.

Adisa · Mar 13, 2016

That midfield wil go to pieces when pressed.

WPMUFC · Mar 13, 2016

why is schneiderlin benched? WHY?

I take it that Januzaj and Pereira playing in the reserves yesterday means they won't feature tomorrow. It's actually a joke that van Gaal continues to overlook both of them when our attacking options are already so scarce.

We haven't got one natural right winger in the entire squad. Januzaj is probably the closest we have to one, yet he doesn't even make the bench.

Mata's suspension makes this an opportune time to introduce Pereira at #10, though I'm sure he'll play a three man midfield featuring Fellaini and Carrick. It's getting tedious.

Knew it, he's too predictable

Fellaini to score winner.

I'm getting that nervousness that I used to get before big games.

I hope we go for it, and the players play with reckless abandon. Feck the philosophy.

This is a big game. Quarters of the FA Cup.

izec · Mar 13, 2016

Lanzini and Payet will toy with our DMs and defenders today.

OnlyTwoDaSilvas · Mar 13, 2016

Looking forward to seeing Januzaj come on at then 86th minute.

Was it Carrick/Fellaini with Herrera forward or was it Carrick/Herrera with Fellaini forward? M.E.N. is saying Carrick/Fellaini doesn't work. Not sure if true.

Iron Stove · Mar 13, 2016

Don't like that midfield at all

drdoityourself · Mar 13, 2016

Who is at right back for West Ham?

stu_1992 · Mar 13, 2016

Fellaini in midfield.

I definitely would have put Schneiderlain in there ahead of him. Rest of the team is pretty okay. Still not confident.

2 man midfield · Mar 13, 2016

Fellaini again. What's the f*cking point?

J-Stander · Mar 13, 2016

That's a rubbish team. Can't see us getting anything from this.

wiz4231 · Mar 13, 2016

LVG: Herrera and Schneiderlin in midfield, win 3 game in a row, not good enough, they are living in the past, I'll bring them back to reality, failure.

Rotation? He has started 5 games in the last 3 weeks.

Feckin hell, overslept and didn't get a lineup in, I was 23rd for March

Captain Slooooooooow this is going to be painful.

Fellani and Carrick. Payet will have so much fun against them. And no Perreira, ridiculous

Pereira has been really poor in his last few reserve games.

If Fellaini and Carrick actually play as a two we should at least be pretty solid. The trouble is they won't. Usually Fellaini and the other midfielder are always 20 yards apart.

Godfather · Mar 13, 2016

Fellaini and Carrick in CM...Jesus Christ.

Silverman · Mar 13, 2016

Carrick is past it, Fellaini simply isn't fit to play there. They should be out of the team unless we simply don't have anyone else. Schneiderlin is struggling but I'm a fan of hiss so I hope it's just his first season problems. I also think Schweinsteiger will be a massive boost to the team when he is fit to start.

I hope United are watching this.

This is our best opportuntiy to win the FA cup in a LONG time.

Potential semi final teams:

Manchester United
Everton
Crystal Palace
Watford.

Come on United... DON'T F*CK THIS UP

We just did...oh well, getting used to this now.

Our best football under Van Gaal come with Fellaini and Carrick as part of a midfield three last season. Just hoping its Carrick deep, with Herrera and Fellaini pushing on.

Why does he keep playing Fellaini in the 2 man CM when he's been shite there every time? fecking idiot.

Inexcusable selecting fellaini yet again, he is the worst player to have worn the shirt for united in the time I've been following the team. We're fecking doomed

MyOnlySolskjaer · Mar 13, 2016

Wishful thinking but;

De Gea
Varela Smalling Blind Rojo
Carrick
Herrera Fellaini
Lingard---------Martial
Rashford

Michael T · Mar 13, 2016

Arsenal just scored - three minutes to go...

MadDogg · Mar 13, 2016

I hope we're not overplaying Rashford. He's struggled quite a bit the last two games, and I'd prefer to take him out of the firing line for a game or two.

Dobba · Mar 13, 2016

Damn it, I forgot to pick a team. Looking at the line-up, so did Van Gaal.

Magnus · Mar 13, 2016

Fellaini should be forced out of this club. Carrick has done brilliantly since arriving but is past it. fecking idiot, dont he want us to win

Hopefully they can recreate that, but Carrick of last season is a different beast to Carrick of this season.

Aki_United · Mar 13, 2016

Blind need a rest and I'm angry to see Fellaini and Carrick again together.

Isn't Carrick/Fellaini/Herrera the midfield that actually worked last season?

2 of our 3 worst midifelders, Carrick and Fellaini have been undeniable terrible since returning no?

harms · Mar 13, 2016

Our midfield is awful - worst possible combination. The rest of the team is okay, even though I miss CBJ (where is he? he isn't even on the bench), he is better than Rojo

Billy Jim · Mar 13, 2016

Could be one of our best opportunities to win this competition if we actually manage to beat West Ham. Which means we invariably won't.

Perpetual lethargy.

Sassy Colin · Mar 13, 2016

How come a PL match is on at the same time as an FA Cup match?

It was niether. Carrick was holding, whilst Herrera and Fellaini pushed on. Having said that, if one was deeper out the two, it was probably Herrera. He was more of an 8, whilst Fellaini 8/10.
