Apart from RB it is pretty clear the team we will go with. Have a feeling/hope that with Wolves likey to sit back Mount could help us unlock them. If it is 0-0 at half time and we haven't threatened much Erikksen and/or Sancho could be introduced to further unlock

I'll be more than happy with a 1-0 win for United, start the season off with 3 points and a clean sheet.
Going to preface by saying I don't classify myself as part of Martial FC but, also believe that if fit, then ETH thinks highly of him and improves as a team and can see why at times. So am curious if Ten Hag seriously just kept him out of pre-season games to hopefully be able to use him at the start season for portions of the games. If he was that far back in his recovery or still injured, then why travel all over and also take part in previous training sessions with the rest of the squad.
Hopefully can for the first few games even give us 50-60 minutes up top till Højlund is ready to start taking the bulk of the CF minutes. Do not want to see the Sancho experiment in real games and rather Rashford start LW and then move centrally later in the game.
No problem. When you have time, Alvaro Fernandez (DEF) and Hannibal (MID) would be worth adding too. Perhaps even Daniel Gore (MID) and Omari Forson (FOR).
Cheers, Niall.I think we'll win, but it'll be hard work. Wolves will certainly park the bus and try to play for the draw. I know everyone's got Garnacho starting, but I'd honestly consider bringing him on from the bench against tired legs instead.
A hard-fought 2-0.
I hate our lack of movement against the low block. We don’t seem to try much movement and I’ve no idea where we imagine a opening would come fromGarnacho Rashford Antony

4-0Hoping for an easy 0-1 victory for United. Strange things can happen in the first few games before our form stabilises.Onana's first real test.We should smash this lot.Onana

Anyway 2-0 United I think Wolves are in trouble this seasonFeels unreal that it is finally starting again.
Still have PTSD from last years opening 2 rounds for us, so i am quite nervous for this.
Will the playing out from the back haunt us again or will Onana be the cure...I’m confident, reckon we’ll smash them. 3 or 4 nil. Wolves are a bit of a mess at the moment.
This1-1
I believe we will struggle for goals and concede. Will take time to improve, so see the opening weeks being a bit of a struggle.What better way to start the new season than a new manager bounce for our opponents? We only had about twelve of those last season, feck us.
There will be no bounce as they were on the up with their previous manager. It’s not like he was sacked for a terrible record. At best they’ll perform to the same level they would have otherwiseWe are smashing this lot, have a really good feeling of a strong start this time around.Easiest first 11 to predict ever. Should be an easy win too
Really? Dalot or AWB?First games are rarely reliable indicators of how the season will unfold. I'd like 3 points but wouldn't be too upset if we drew.
You'd expect the starting XI to be the team ten Hag put out against Lens. However, there's two question marks for me. Garnacho or Sancho and Dalot or Wan-Bissaka, as you said.
Both Wan-Bissaka and Sancho were arguably our best performers during pre season, and I didn't watch the game, but apparently they were really good against Bilbao, too.
Good headaches for ten Hag to have, but as I said, I believe we'll see the Lens starting XI.1-0 wolves. Brown og 90feck sake why are we playing on a Monday
Can't believe we're back already. Seems like just the other day the season ended. Bring it onIs our match the final one of the weekend?
We are getting Wes back as well??
Yes it’s Monday night.
All eyes on us.Who’s going to be sub goalkeeper now?Its going to be Martial up front isnt it with Hojlund having this dodgy back issue?
(now that Martial is back in training)
Doubtful. I can't imagine he'll be on anything more than the bench. Ten Hag doesn't seem the type to through someone in while nto match fit. Most likely Rashford up top with Garnacho or Sancho on the left.Its going to be Martial up front isnt it with Hojlund having this dodgy back issue?
(now that Martial is back in training)hope its a fulham 06 like performance that shapes the rest of the season
No but he's not ready yet. However he might have some minutes if the game going well I think.
Yeah, I always look to that match each season opener. We were incredible that day.
Has Hojlund even been training yet? Im not sure ive seen any pics of him in training with the others
Probably Vitek, if Henderson is still injured.
Yes I saw a clip he's been training with the team.I guess the team picks itself? Only question marks are the right back position between AWB and Dalot and if Henderson is match fit enough to be the goalie on the bench.
