Pereira would likely mean no Matic. I would love to see that but I can't see Ole making risky picks like that.

They had a pretty decent result going into this game.
Who did great against the top half of the league and pretty poor against the bottom half. Soaking up pressure and hitting teams on the counter suits them. We've yet to show we can unlock teams like these.
Exactly. The matches with Wolves during our late season collapse have skewed people's expectations. We are a better side than Wolves.
I don't think Fred is match fit yet and he won't be playing here in a tough away game without a few.low.pressure sub appearances under his belt.So if both teams are set up to counter, who will be doing the attacking?
Wolves of course.
I was referring to their Europa league game. 4-0.
I don't think we will set up to counter at all. That's what they would expect. I expect us to be attacking tonight.I reckon 2-1 either wayAny leaks?
Who mentioned Fred? I agree Fred won't be playing. I'm expecting Matic, McTominay & Pogba. I don't rate Matic at all but that's what i expect.
I'd think if he travels, then he's on the bench. Last time he didn't travel was because he'd played for the under 23's and he wasnt in their squad.
sounds like on his way to inter to join lukaku on loan. Seems done.
Matic is the risky pick.
10 minutes, you can’t wait?
On balance, I'd rather Matic than Pereira. Neither fill me with any sort of confidence though.18:35
The next batch of players
Gomes, Shaw, Martial, De Gea, Maguire, Rashford, Romero, Matic, Lingard, Young, Lindelof, Pogba, Pereira, Mata.
18:32
Players spotted getting off the bus
We’ve seen McTominay, Grant, James, Jones, Tuanzebe, Greenwood and Wan-Bissaka so far.18:41
Missing men
So there is no place for Chris Smalling, Matteo Darmian, Marcos Rojo, Alexis Sanchez, Diogo Dalot or Fred tonight.
10 minutes, you can’t wait?
I'm hoping for a surprise!0-2 United. Next!Worry that we drop points here.
Hopefully I'm wrong.Im fecking excited!
Gomes on the bench would be sweet!it'll be the same starting eleven.Think it'll be the same team
Well which is it? Soaking up pressure or dominating our midfield? It won't be both.No Dalot and Fred again even on the bench??? What’s going on?
Young at right back
Oh fair enough.
Fred not match fit.Just hope Ole and co have been studying the 2 games where we struggled with them last season and has implemented a system to try and rectify it.feck we have a big squad.
In my eyes, yes. I think he's a shocking dm. But i can't see Ole picking two inexperienced players for midfield in Pereira & McTominay, when, Pogba isn't able to sit and guide them through the match when we need him influencing it at the top end of the pitch too. Also, the Wolves crowd will be up for this match. For those reasons, i think Matic will play.I want a nice surprise, but my prediction was the same as last time
They sit deep but they play really well through teams with their passing options in midfield. So it is indeed both. Their midfield is the reason why their counter is so dangerous, they have the ability to move the ball quickly up the pitch, and of course, they've got Jota who might just be the best player outside the top 6 clubs and Jimenez, both of whom are fast.
Midfield domination is maybe not the best phrase, midfield superiority might encompass better what I see as their arsenal. Hopefully it won't be the same story tonight.Is Dalot injured? Or just not under consideration anymore?Smalling not in the squad? Injured?- Status
