I don't think Matic is good for this game, we need VdB in there to link up play with Fernandes.

What a pathetic negative lineup For a game we need to win.
7 defenders so Typical of Ole hoping Bruno and rashford are going to bail him out As usual.
Whether it’s three at the back or five at the back, the defensive midfielders shouldn’t even be in the argument.
We have 12 subs compared to their 9 according to LiveScore.Bad midfield choice, it’s like a Southgate England selection - back 3/5 with 2 defensive mids ahead is overkill... Especially with how McT and Matic shit their pants when pressed. Wouldn’t be surprised if we have to change it at half time and bring on Donny.
Hopefully I’m wrong, come on United!
We don’t need to win though do we
I’m incredibly nervous. I really don’t care how we do it I just hope we bloody do it!
I suspect he was expected to move but a deal was never found.Rumours are that Romero has thrown his toys out the pram having fallen out with Ole. He was angry at being denied a summer loan move to Everton. His wife Eliana Guercio took to her personal Instagram account to claim his exit was blocked. Romero is apparently not part of United’s Premier League and Champions League squads.Van de Beek should play instead of Matic/McT. Far too defensive
Don't then.
My gut feeling is he could get minutes against Watford in the FA Cup,unlikely to feature against Everton in Carabao unless we have wrapped up the game.
Avoid defeat and we're through.
Wasn't this public knowledge weeks ago?Can we still finish top of the group if both PSG and us win our games today? Everywhere I check United are currently top of the group, but Paris have a better head2head thanks to Neymar's late goal last week. Which counts first: H2H or GD?
H2H.
I'd have prefered if he went for the VDB option.
Let's see how it goes. Fingers crossed!I don't even rate Ole, but even I am not as shocked/disappointed by the selection as most seem to be?
This is what we do in big games. Counter attack.I'm ready for all the armchair tacticians to be proven wrong. We know RBL are going to high press and we'll play on the counter. We know Upamecano is out.
It can go either way but Bruno and Rashford smacked them around on the counter when they came to OT and I think it'll happen again.
Only wish VdB started instead of Matic.
Watched Pellistri in the Under 23s a few times and he hasn't stood out for me. I know he scored the other day against Southampton but Anthony Elanga, for me, has looked much better.
It's head to head. Irrelevant really, let's just focus on qualifying.This group is super exciting though! I wish I was a neutral.
so what if RB score first? we will be completely Fecked. There’s no doubt Ole is relying on a lucky goal. But imagine Chasing a goal with 7 defenders Because you know Ole won’t change anything till 75 mins.
Even so I would have had VdB in instead of Matic to provide some kind of creative nous.
Thanks
Apart from Pellestri but club has made right decision in using him for the EFL trophy game instead
You spelled feck wrong.
too risky to play for a draw. It’s a risky gameplan starting with 7 defensive players.The state of BT’s microphone interviewing Ole
Its not negative though is it? Only real difference would be Vdb alongside McT, otherwise anything else is much of a muchness no?
Classic reverse psychology! @SirAnderson is that you? I always enjoy a double reverse jinx post!!That was a bit of a train wreck of an interview.I weirdly think we will win this rather easily. We usually do when we put out mad team selections like that.
Yeah but it's really pathetic and negative though.
He can't say feck pogba.
While he hasn't stood out, he's looked very solid. Plays well on the right, comfortable with the ball at his feet and can put a cross in. Things we are sorely lacking from that side. He's got a future here, imo.10/11 thought Mc Tom was injuredIt’s a decent line up, until we go a goal down. Once that happens, this tactic doesn’t workPSG - Bashaksehir 1-2
