i don't mind if he comes on in the last ten minutes for set pieces, but it was mad the way our last manager tried to build the team around him.

I mean yeah, but McTominay is. He's essentially Fellaini without the ability to score goals
Oh, so it's true.I'm not overly confident for this fixture for some reason...
What about Nogba?
He’s got better ability on the ground though, although I’d him gone ideally as well.
Alright, finally!
Gomes previous game and now Chong's turn.
.... where the heck is Pereira?
God knows. Newcastle are shocking. We should be dispatching these easily. Just need to make sure we start well and don't give their fans any belief.
These were the type of games we would bottle under Mourinho so it will be interesting to see what happens under Ole tonight.
Might as well bring him on. A goal here, an assist there and he's suddenly a 40 million player in today's market.Pereira and Fellaini starting the FA cup match then.. confirmed .5-0? Come on lads. We just about scraped by these at home. I'll be happy with a 1-0 with a good performance.So up for this one that I splashed out on a weeks NowTV pass. We stroll this 5-0 and tomorrow see scousers start their inevitable stutter.
Bit worried about our defence but we just need that mentality of scoring more than them (sounds simple but worked for Fergie).
Whoever plays up top needs to keep up the energetic displays Ole has instilled in the team.
Not a game to messwith midfield, we can do that versus Reading.
Come on... 10 minutes till tramd are out!
I take it you've recovered from the other day.
You can't fix that goal difference with 1-0, mate.
A clear 5-0. Well, 5-1, because Jones.
I did that just before Saturday's games and as a result had access to 7 Prem matches so good value.Chong
Yes?
Good.
With the squad, pretty much no chance he's starting though
What you had eaten
No. He'll be on the bench. Previous poster just happy he's in the squad. No way Chong is risked from the start in a game away from home when we have few injuries to worry about.The reason McTominay is travelling and will probably even make it onto the bench.... he's the emergency CB.
Oh, I'll settle for a sub appearance anyway.
According to Ole, Darmian is the emergency centre back.
I don't recall? Over eating?What you had eaten
Darmian is the backup not emergency
Likely similar to Gomes, bench first then on when we're leading comfortably.
Unfortunately for Fellaini he was stripped off twice ready to come on against Bournemouth but had to sit down due to Shaw's injury and then Bailly's sending off too. I still think it's a shame as he was one of the guys who still looked like he was putting the effort in under Jose.
At this stage of the injury pile-up, a backup is an emergency option, no?
I think the posters point was that if we needed to Scott will be on the bench to fill in at CB in an emergency situation. I.E we need to sub 2 in the game.
I'd say Pereira will start but Fellaini has hardly played a minute lately. I doubt he'd be being rested for this match.
Maybe he's on the move.ValenciaUrgh ValenciaValencia straight back in as Captain.As bad as Newcastle have been this season, they've only conceded more than 2 goals on 3 occasions. Only once was that at home, 0-3 to West Ham. They lost 4-0 at Anfield last week, yes, but I am expecting this to be tight, tough match.- Status
