Manchester United Mondays.

Watch United on Monday
Have a moan on Tuesday
We were Ralfy out on Wednesday and on Thursday, Friday and Saturday
We go again on Sunday

Ixion · Dec 31, 2021

Assume Varane in for Baily, Dalot for AWB, Fred from Matic and possibly Bruno for Greenwood.

Frank Grimes · Dec 31, 2021

I think Ronaldo gets a rest here and Rashford starts. He didn't bring Rashford on last night for this reason.

It’s a week until our next game, I think we took it easy in the second half just for this scenario. Rotate for the cup game and it’s 2 weeks off for Ronaldo

If we play like we did against Burnley we will need to score more than once. Any team that can counter will create chances against us, just look at Newcastle. Against Burnley there were times where they literally had an entire half of space to run into unopposed. If we do that against Wolves we will be in trouble. 424 with your defence not high up is suicidal. They have to move up to prevent the space. But for that you need fast center backs to cover the runs in behind. Not Maguire.

We'll need to be miles better than last night to get anything in this. I can see a draw.

You are correct.

Ayoba · Jan 1, 2022

I would like to see a variation of the 4-2-2-2 by dropping one of the strikers for Bruno.

wolvored · Jan 1, 2022

Why put Fred back in he's been useless. Matic can play the cdm role if he can't play 2 games in 4 days then there really is something wrong with him. McTom looks a better player without him as well. I would chsnge WB for dalot and leave the rest of the team how it is

So a 4-2-3-1

SAFMUTD · Jan 1, 2022

Wolves is going to definitely park the bus, going to be a frustrating game hopefully we can break them on the first half.

Another alternative is that he didn’t bring him on because his performances have been utter wank

You have to go back near a decade for those.

Matic cannot play obviously and i reckon McT will start since he was big for us last game (a one off but ok). I cannot decide if we should go with Dalot or AWB. Need more offensive against these lot but both Jimenez and Traore are a damn handful. Keep Ronaldo in, he's going to score for sure based on all the misses last game. Got to.
De Gea
AWB Varane Maguire Shaw
Fred McT
Sancho Bruno
Cavani Ronaldo

Would take a last minute deflection like last season.

It could well be. Still think he starts Monday night. Time will tell.

They'll probably score 2 against us.
We have a habit of making ordinary teams look great and helping them break season records.
Watford is the best example. I doubt they'll score 4 goals against any team this season.

Red Royal · Jan 1, 2022

Any news on which players from Wolves tested positive for Covid and if they are back. Heard it was 6 first teamers but no idea if they are back, if not it will really hurt them.

NewYorkRed · Jan 1, 2022

Absolute must win. Gutted that Spurs got that goal at the end today. We must respond with a good performance to start building some monentum. We should beat these guys quite comfortably.

RuudTom83 · Jan 1, 2022

The squad is so low on confidence every match is going to be a grind for a while.

If we can just accept performances might not be what we all want for the next month or two, then the matches become a little more enjoyable.

Any opposition will be a challenge, but Ralf is undefeated in 4 league games, if that can get closer to double figures I believe the team will start to play more freely.

Yeah and West Ham winning as well despite a late rally from Palace to try and snatch something

Yeah, it's frustrating that the only 'good' score was City getting an injury time winner v 10 men. Shitty day when that's the only positive to take out of the PL games.

The Tottenham injury time goal was gutting, and the West Ham 1st half was infuriating how they somehow ended it 3-0 up. The late goals gave a tiny bit of hope but the damage had been done.

Bertie Wooster · Jan 2, 2022

It's tough to guess with 3 games in 8 days, possible after effects of covid on some, can Cavani cope with Thursday / Monday, etc.

I imagine we'll see a few more tweaks, and maybe Greenwood - who's started the other two - may be on the bench. And that Cavani won't be risked two starts in 3 days...

De Gea

Dalot / AWB
Maguire
Varane
Telles

Fred
McTominay

Bruno
Sancho

Ronaldo
Rashford

70% of the time your post is wrong.

I.e. 70% of the time they score so 'once' would not be enough, 70% of the time.

McGrathsipan · Jan 2, 2022

this will be the game where something clicks for United.
I have a good feeling

tomaldinho1 · Jan 2, 2022

Wolves are actually a really good team under Lage, feel we will lose or draw sadly.

Eplel · Jan 2, 2022

i fecking hate these monday night games

wolvored · Jan 2, 2022

See this being a 0-0 Wanderers can defend but cant score.

Vidyoyo · Jan 2, 2022

more like moanday night, am i right

Devil may care · Jan 2, 2022

With points vital I think Rangnick will just go with what this lot knows.

Red Dreams · Jan 2, 2022

I'm not sure about our ability to recall Garner.
If we can, we certainly should.
I don't think they are going to spend in this window.
