It’s such an average lineup, shows why this will be a long and season and top 4 is a bit of a pipe dream.

Starting Greenwood means accepting having no striker on the bench, I expect him to hold off doing so for as long as he can as a result
No Lingard. Still looks shite though
United wouldn't have a CF on the bench if he started. Just zero cover. He is the CF cover.
He went off injured yesterday you absolute wanker
Feckin hell I even tried checking for white text by selecting all text but still couldn't see it on my phone
Didn't travel, got injured playing last night for U-23's.Jesse Lingard will have an excellent season — by not fecking playing.
Edited with white text after you realised your error?Smalling out of the club and Lingard dropped on consecutive days. Best days this club has seen since Fergie.
But isn’t it more important to have a CF on the ... well... pitch??Urgh, you look at that team and really wonder how they are going to pick up points on a regular basis? Paper thin squad will cost us.
hopefullyPereira and MataIt feels strange, but I'm really happy to see Lingard dropped. Buzzing atm, can't wait for the game!I think that Chong should get a chance on right wing but lineup is the best what we have right now.I’m giving it until HT to be entertained. If not, I’m getting on with my day. Predicted a 2-2 draw only because that’s what I feel this lot are capable of, even against Southampton.
Mata, Pereira, McTominay or James. Take your pick.Meh. The players Ole talks up find themselves on the bench or not in the squad.
I would have thought James would be on the left and Pereira right. It's the best we can hope for i guess.
Everyone complaining that Gomes and Greenwood aren't starting need to remember they're both kids who have everything to prove and need to do it in the right conditions, throwing them in to an away PL game is not the way to do it.Fred not even on the bench. What's going on here?
Thank feck Lingard is dropped.
Very uninspiring options from the bench I am afraid.
He captained the u23s last night and came off with a knock.As expected then. Had a feeling that it would be too early for Greenwood to start, hardly had any touches in his last cameos from the bench. Not much else you can do with that squad now though. Can't wait til January.
We have Rashford.. On the pitch.
Are.... Are you actually providing their youth team and reserve games as if they're legitimate statistics correlative with PL statistics? I... my sides...Word is Gomes injured. Bench looks threadbare
I can see Soton dominating our midfield. 1-1 draw.
Makeshift? We are only missing two of our first 11.It is exactly as I expected.
For a manager that supposedly believes in youth, he sure likes going with experienced has beens.
If we drop points again then this cowardly selection will bring massive pressure to Ole’s door.At least with Pereira we have a slight chance at seeing a decent set piece. If Rashford and Young let him take any that is
Over 4 years ago and was well past his best even then.
Ole the fraud a new low for the forums. Jeez
Yeah injured with u23s. Should have been saved perhaps.Fred nowhere to be seen again.
Chong and Greenwood, despite having little experience, can make an impact from the bench.Keown such an idiot - disliked him immensely as a player and now commentatorPogba's been on the right of the two not the left, hasn't he? Crikey, that team ain't great is it....
Good chance for Mata here, he has pace around him, willing runners to find with his passing. I still think Mata can do good things at 10 this season when he plays.
If you take Pogba and de Gea out of our team.... Yikes. The battle for 12th place right there.
Hojbjerg with his creativity, Ward-Prowse with his set pieces and Adams with his pace are their danger men.
What makes you think January will be more hopeful? I am gobsmacked that we are so threadbare. This is Man Utd not a Sunday football sideWow, that's a budget front line!!!
Even though I worry how he'll do, Mata over Lingard is the right call given form in the first 3. And if he gets close to the other 2 cms could be crucial to keeping the ball moving, something McTominay hasn't been great at in the league.
But not sure where goals are coming from at all.Such an average team, I completely forgot that Martial was injured. Can see Ole throwing Greenwood on late to try and save us, crazy pressure for a 17 yr old.- Status
