    I don't know about Shaw but Martial will make an impact, he pretty much always does no matter how much people want try and exaggerate about him being poor.

    Exactly this. I'm sick of hearing about him being poor v Liverpool for example, when he was a good outlet on the left and often faced 2/3 players.

    Early team news
    This is unconfirmed, but this is the United team that is doing the rounds before kick-off:
    Romero
    Fosu-Mensah
    Smalling
    Rojo
    Shaw
    Schweinsteiger
    Fellaini
    Rooney
    Mata
    Mkhitaryan
    Martial

    Just to reiterate, the team will be confirmed an hour before kick-off, as usual, but that could be close to, if not the exact United side that starts today’s game.
    It would mark Fosu-Mensah’s first start since September and Schweinsteiger would be lining up since that demoralising day against Sheffield United. The records showed United won but the feeling that day was victory felt like a defeat.

    10/11 if true. Had Tuanzebe intead of Rojo. Interesting to see Shaw, Fosu-Mensah, Schweinsteiger and Martial.

    9/11 for me then, I didn't have Schweinsteiger & Fellaini as midfield pairing mainly because I just didn't want it to happen :nervous:
     
    I went for

    ---------Romero
    Mensah Jones Rojo Shaw
    -----------BFS
    ----Fellaini ---- Pogba
    Mata --- Rooney --- Martial
     
    Herrera and Tuanzebe in the traveling squad.

    REDS ARRIVE AT OLD TRAFFORD
    The United squad is here...

    Why do some arrive with next to nothing and some look like they are leaving home?
     
    I haven't done too good if that is the 11. I had hoped for Tofu and Basti but didn't bother as I didn't think they'd be picked.

    Can Rooney even still play as lone striker? He will just play deep and get in Mata's way.

    Not if Wigan park the bus, instead of Reading. In which case Rashford could be less useful than Rooney.
     
    Confirmed United team
    United: Romero, Fosu-Mensah, Smalling, Rojo, Shaw, Schweinsteiger, Fellaini, Rooney, Mata, Mkhitaryan, Martial.

    As reported by the MEN earlier.
     
    9/11, failed miserably on the center-backs.

    They are going to a footballmatch, not a meeting at work or a dinner in a posh restaurant. Never understood why they wore a bloody suit going to a game

    It's a sense of unity and class. They're representing a massive club who have high expectations and a lot of fans, and they should represent us well. Even kids in younger years have to do that for football.

    I am guessing they don't wear it as often now because Adidas have offered us a load of money and want us to be wearing their stuff ALL the time.
     
    Really like that team tbh. Gives a lot of our players a rest, those that needed it. It uses players who need minutes and theres a balance to it with most playing in their preferred positions.
     
    That midfield is going to be slow!
