VdB not starting ahead of one of Mata James and Mctominay is quite irritating

What did VDB do to Ole?Line-up looking horrible... Gonna be dominated by Saint-Maximin and Callum Wilson while our attack wont get a shot on.Why is VDB not starting?
What's wrong with Mason?
Surprised Maguire is starting as he's struggling at the moment, possibly due to the summer, and needs a couple of games out the spotlight
You would presume he has an injury or is ill, he would have been first name on there, especially with Martial out.Incredibly poor lineup. Happy to see Fred start of course but where the fecking hell is Greenwood?!Hopefully Juve don't turn upReally didn’t think we’d see Mata in a must win EPL game again to be honest. Look at that line up. Imagine if we knew that’s how we’d be lining up this season when we secured top 4.
We really needed to go 352 today and for the rest of the season really.
Maguire,Shaw and Rashford need huge games today.
He can't be best pleased himself either.Dan James man
3-0 win incoming as standard with these wank lineupsMata is the least of my worriesMaybe Ole thinks that this is a cup game?Club legend, but get this Molde manager who was out of his depth at Cardiff out of our club. He is an awful manager.Disappointing that VDB didn't make the team, but I couldn't be happier that Ole has dropped Pogba, a big statement of intent from him. The club comes first.
Can only assume VDB is carrying a knock, otherwise I'm sure he'd make the team in the absense of pogba or Bruno.Am sure Fernandes will be delighted looking at either side of him..Shite lineup so we'll probably win!What has Dan James done to deserve a start? He’s fecking shit and hasn’t done anything to prove otherwiseThis looks like a europa league group stage line up...That front 4 is appalling, especially considering Rashford's form. Midtable at best.Atleast we can expect 100% commitment from the front 6. Unfortunately, might not be enough quality.Why no Donny? A pretty uninspiring line up really. Knowing how things go with us though this team will probably play well.What has van de Beek got to do to start?!River appreciated, .....coming from a sky, bt, Amazon subscriber
I actually think we still have no idea where he fits our lineup.Holy shit what an awful starting eleven. Just drained me out of the little excitement that I had for the game.No Pellestri as well. Guess he hasn’t even travelled
Where the heck is Greenwood?
yup.Newcastle just needs to sit back and hit is on the breakWorst part is we have no wingers on the bench despite starting Mata and James as wingers.I didn't know this was pay for view? I thought it was only a proposal? Surely this isn't gonna work? I was getting ready to watch the match and now thinking if I want to pay.An injury and a suspension shows what rubbish options we have upfront.
Throw in the fact we could have signed Cavani ages ago and it shows what a circus the club is.Knee jerking so hard I’m in danger of kicking my own teeth out. But that line up looks awful.
But that's the only thing really. But then he's not a winger, and he obviously wants a solid base in our midfield considering how terrible our defence is.
Now isn't the time to switch to a diamond... We've had like 2 days of training.I'm not one to normally complain about line ups, but ffs with all the money we've spent over the last few years, that looks incredibly weak.We’re getting feck all from Rashford through the middle he was terrible there last time we tried it. James and Mata either side?
This is gonna be ugly.
Something isn’t right with VDB. Can’t start ahead of even Fred or McTominay? Something is off.James has 3 games to show what he can do on the left. Decent lineup but we should have started Telles. New players hit the ground running with us and then turn to crap.Is Pellestri injured? Figured he'd be at least make the bench given he was our star signing.This team is horrid and if we don't win, Ole will have it all to a head.
I can only presume some of players came back with little niggles because there is no other excuse. We're not winning the Champions League so what is Ole doing?This Pellistri guy isn’t going to play for months. James must be laughing his bollocks off he’s got another season starting all the time. Only option now is to have Cavani as our back up to Greenwood as well as Martial. Great depth.- Status
