This is my City team.
OnanaSo assuming maximum rotation, something like this for Plzen :
Maz - De Ligt - Martinez
Dalot - Ugarte - Casemiro - Malacia
Amad - Bruno
Hojlund
OnanaYoro needs minutes before he’s ready for a game like City, similar story to Mainoo who imo was the worst player in the Forest game.
Yoro - Maguire - Martinez
Antony - Mainoo - Eriksen - Amass
Garnacho - Rashford
Zirkzee
At some point vs plzen, bring on Mount, Maz, De Ligt
Looking at both teams current form Plzen is more difficult than City. Just enjoy this fact.Its very risky to play such a strong line-up when we haveto go to City in 3 days
Id say Rashford would be the 9 out of the pairing.So is Rashford the 10 or is Zirkzee and Rashfords the 9?
There is concerns with the pitch?Looking forward to seeing him play there. Just hope the pitch allows him to shine
Didn’t Rash and Zirkzee play against Everton where Rashford was the #10?Id say Rashford would be the 9 out of the pairing.
I’d prefer that. Zirkzee is more clever and better linking up so should be the 10.Id say Rashford would be the 9 out of the pairing.
So is Rashford the 10 or is Zirkzee and Rashfords the 9?
Yes but when they play they just get different instructions. Rashford ends up playing the 10 differently as more a second striker making runs in behind while Zirkzee plays like a deeper lying CF. So in practice their roles is rashford being the runs in behind and Zirkzee doing the hold up and link up.Didn’t Rash and Zirkzee play against Everton where Rashford was the #10?
The meltdown if Mazaroui were #10 again would be amazingAmad as the 10!
Not sure but I’d imagine it’s small and maybe bumpy, especially if they’ve had very cold weather which will make the pitch harder.There is concerns with the pitch?
No need to have him as RWB now that we have pretty much a full fit squad to choose from.What? Amad at 10? Didn't expect that.
they are lager! by definition ha ha... seriously except if I want a shandy, I prefer bitter or, in a pub near OT in the old days... bitter and mild mixYou are saying lagers are not proper beer? So you've chosen war!
Hope Amad shines enough here to earn himself a start against city. We’re forgetting we still have Garnacho who’s a dangerous player. Basically a choice between, Amad, Garnacho, Rashford, Hojlund, Zirkzee, Mount and Bruno for the front 3 positions. Bruno can play CM against weaker teams but wouldn’t start him there against city.The City game on Sunday is definitely one to pay attention to and how much game time certain players get. Amad, Dalot, Bruno in particular.
Exactly.I mean... just look at the table. Both teams have 9 points and conceded 7 goals, the only difference so far is that United scored one goal more (10 instead of 9). Based on that it's the most even matchup today (closely followed by Rangers vs Spurs, who are separated by 2 goals).
The one in Astana looks fine in comparison and the Czech league is at a higher level. It will be fine.Not sure but I’d imagine it’s small and maybe bumpy, especially if they’ve had very cold weather which will make the pitch harder.
European games are at a different intensity and perhaps as the season goes on, the club will realise it's the best chance of success and put all our efforts into the knockout gamesExcept winning it is not realistic. We've just been battered by Nottingham Forest. ECL is no walk in the park
Good lad. Pint of mixed in the Quadrant. Nectar. Not been there for years. Also worked nearby. Must admit though , wouldn’t mind a dabble of Pils in Prague. Never been.they are lager! by definition ha ha... seriously except if I want a shandy, I prefer bitter or, in a pub near OT in the old days... bitter and mild mix
El DialloAmad will show who he is tonight
Amad will show who he is tonight
Yoro could easily play in the centre of the 3. Could maz play RWB? Pretty sure he could. And Diallo will probably start to play more games in a 10 now.If 343 is the way forward how is Amorim going to fit Yoro, Maz and Diallo on the right side of the team?
Long term this system limits your options on the quality and strength of the team due to the current profiles of the current squad
Did your gran score many goals for United?no idea how rashford gets picked ahead of Rasmus... not sure how Zirkzee gets picked ahead of my gran (who died in about 1967)... can't see who's going to create the openings if Bruno has another of his off days
Yoro rcb, Maz rwb, Amad ramIf 343 is the way forward how is Amorim going to fit Yoro, Maz and Diallo on the right side of the team?
