    Bailly must be fuming.
    Can't get in when Maguire is about 25% fit.
    Can't get in when we play 3 centre backs including a just back Varane and woefully out of form Maguire.
    Lindelof...enough said too.

    All better than Bailly to be fair. He blows extremely hot and mostly extremely cold, so therefore not the sort of player you want to be relying on with your job on the line

    We'll park the bus, win via a counter and our manager will come post game convincing us the crisis is well and truly over.

    Will be interesting how we try and counter with our pace boys on the bench!
     
    We’ll make Spurs look like world beaters tonight like we do against every team, it doesn’t matter how many defensive players we have on the field if they arent coached how to play the system and I highly doubt they’ve learnt it well enough in the last 6 days when they haven’t been able to figure out 4231 in the last 3 years.

    I hope we get lucky and it works but I honestly think we’ll give up just as many chances.

    Agreed, I think he's totally reckless, can't last 4 games in a row without injury, and his low end form is as low as anyone in the league.

    Not one. He done this vs. Leipzig away and we still got carved open at will.

    He's just not learning. He seems to think just adding more defenders is the solution. It's brain dead.
     
    I can't lie, I'm pretty angry at that lineup.

    You don't lose 5 nil at home to Liverpool and then pick all the same worst performing players in the next game. Who is getting punished here? Greenwood and Rashford?

    He could've gone:

    De Gea
    Bailly Varane Maguire
    Dalot VdBeek Matic Telles
    Bruno
    Cavani Ronaldo
    ​
    We wouldn't have been any weaker and it would send a message as to the standards expected at United.

    Because he’s probably got about 8 or 9 of that 26 man squad who he has fully lost the faith of

    The only players that deserve to be disregarded are Mata and maybe Lingard as they're surplus to requirements.

    The rest of the squad are worth a game or two.

    It's shocking use of the squad. To put it in perspective Fergie could win a League with Anderson, Cleverley and Fletcher type players.

    Not all winning teams need 11 superstars in the lineup.
     
    These are largely the players he has stuck with through thick and thin so it's fitting McFred decides his fate.

    As usual it will be the toss of a coin whether either of them have a good day, both have a good day or both squander possession in critical areas leading to goals.

    Predictable, even when he changes things.

    Shaw by far has been worst tbh.
    Click to expand...
    I honestly think Shaw struggles playing in front of a United crowd, I can't see it being anything else. Remember his performances last year when fans weren't in the stadium, same players, same manager but he was a different beast. Pre covid and now fans are back in, we're looking at the shaw with no confidence.

    Keano going in on Shaw, Maguire and AWB, said they were a disgrace last week.
    Click to expand...
    The disgrace is to play them no matter what. You can’t expect standards doing that.

    I remember Carrick doing a mistake leading city to a victory in the cup or Berbatov not scoring. SAF did not play them for a long long time after that. That’s called having standards. And this 2 players are head and shoulders are Bové the 3 Keane mentioned.
     
    I just can't accept players getting picked based on their name and not form. Ole has no bottle.

    Utter fecking cowardice.

    it’s definitely a “save my job with a hard fought draw” lineup. But I think given how last week went, they need to go back to what they were somewhat good at (a while ago now I must say) ie counter attacking.

    Probably wouldn’t have bothered tuning in if it was another 4231. Don’t want to see it ever again whilst he’s still in charge.
     
    That lineup doesn't really inspire confidence, severe lack of pace up front. Hope AWB and Shaw stay wide and do their jobs in getting the ball towards Ronaldo and Cavani.

    It's a patchwork job to an ongoing problem. I get why he's doing it, but it's also... 3 years in, abandoning what he's been trying to do and going with more defensive players to try and get a clean sheet and experience up top. Not pretty for sure and not sustainable for anything more than just 1 game.

    I'd hand Keano a cricket bat before entering the changing room.

    Rightly so. Conte and Keane make this team win a League. I firmly believe this.

    The talent is in the squad. They need direction and to be focused.
     
    Well said Keano and not afraid to hurt the England Internationals feelings like the other so-called pundits.
    Maguire and Shaw have been a disgrace this season and shouldn't even be starting currently imo.

    Also, his Maguire impersonation :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
     
    By the looks of this lineup and formation, it is a siege mentality with an emphasis on defense.

    Honestly, I still don't think it will work. Ole has allowed so many of our players to run forward for too long. This is a recipe for complete chaos.
     
    Yep, playing for a draw. It has 0-0 written all over which unfortunately will be seen as progress by some.

    Love Keano, he's my top choice for interim manager

    He used to be much better than this pre covid. Not his best for sure but much better than the shower of shite he's served up in many games
