    Last realistic chance of a trophy this season. Accepting there will be some changes/some players need game time there must be no repeat of the fiasco against MK Dons.

    Carrick hasn't travelled but Rooney should be able to comfortably boss midfield here.

    De Gea

    Rafael - Smalling - Jones - Shaw

    Rooney - Herrera

    Januzaj- Mata - di Maria

    Falcao
     
    I know the MK Dons debacle is still in our heads, but I just had a quick glance at our line-up that day and really had to laugh: De Gea; Vermijl, Keane, Evans, James; Janko, Kagawa, Anderson, Powell; Welbeck, Hernandez.

    We won't have an XI as shite as this out there for sure.

    Despite whether you think it was shite or not, on paper, that team was more than good enough to beat MK Dons.
     
    So what have people predicted then? I've gone:

    Lindegaard; Rafael, Smalling, McNair, Shaw; Fletcher, Herrera, Di Maria, Januzaj; Rooney, Wilson

    Subs: Blackett, Pereira, Falcao.
     
    Is this game being shown live on TV? if so, what channel because they are not showing this game on ESPN, the shitty vs Sheffield game is on.

    Yeah, hindsight and all that, I agree, the players have really let themselves down that game. Still, the back four makes me laugh now :lol:

    Think Falcao will start - still needs games/goals the most.
     
    I really hope Pereira starts, the rest I am easy on and I imagine Fletcher will start and Captain the team.
     
    Would like to see Falcao-Rooney as a strike partnership. As far as I'm aware we haven't seen this yet. Also would like to see Pereira start too.
     
    I really do dislike away third rounders which are away against lower league opposition.

    For Yeovil players it'll almost certainly be the biggest game of their careers and they'll have so much desire and will to win.

    Win and everyone says its expected. The minimum.

    Lose and you're ridiculed.

    These are always tough fixtures, and so I would like to see some experience in the side also.

    Come to think of it, it wasn't great. To make it worse, it was a back three, where Vermijl - a right back by trait - had to play centre back. To be fair to them, though, we've actually never looked convincing in a back three. Hope we go back to a back four today. Look a lot more solid, in my opinion.
     
    Devil may care said:
    Me too given his contract is up in 6 months.



    Why on Earth would we play the 3-5-2 against Yeovil? Not to mention Rooney doesn't need to start, he looked as tired as most after the Christmas fixtures.

    Exactly. Three CB's when we'll have most of the ball and
    have to break down a team is ridiculous.

    Really hope Lingard gets a game.
     
    I'm actually getting a bit excited about this. Hopefully we see Di Maria make an appearance.

    Not half as excited as the Yeovil fans by the looks of things:
     
    I hope MUTVs prediction is wrong, why 352? No need for it. And I don't feel comfortable with Fletcher in midfield at all against any opposition.
     
    I have a feeling that despite an obvious win, we will be struggling today. On a positive note, after the holidays and travelling to my homecountry I missed far too many games on TV already so I am looking forward to watching this game with the mandatory crisps and beer :)

    Wow, such a weak team, asking for a beating, really.

    Yep, even a 3 or 4 nil win can be mocked at.
     
    Gonna be so disappointed if Pereira still doesn't get a minute, on a positive note thank fecking god atlas LVG realizes Januzaj is a 10.

    Yes. Would be good to see him get minutes.

    Not sure Pereira will start, but I can imagine he should get some minutes. He was a real bright spark when he come on against MK Dons.
     
    That's good news! ^

    Is this being shown on Itv/BBC?
     
    We've got to put a strong side out, I was at MK Dons worst porformance that I have ever witnessed!
