Okay, but all I'm saying is its a very long trip and will be a hindrance to us in the PL.Kazakhstan number one exporter of potassium. All other countries have inferior potassium.
Also how is Kazakstan in Europe? Seems to be expanding

The group is shite, if the youngsters cant help us qualify then surely they're not going to be good enough. Rest the best players for the PL, I'd rather focus on that.We need to play our best players until we are sure of qualifying. I'm all for giving the youngsters a chance but from the bench until qualification is in the bag.
Garner, Gomes, Greenwood, Williams, and Chong, can be brought into things gradually, and this and the cup games are perfect if they are used properly.
What then if we don't manage to get a top 4 place and we go out of this tournament. Anything can happen in these games as it has proved in the past.The group is shite, if the youngsters cant help us qualify then surely they're not going to be good enough.

What if we kill the first team and we end up being 10+ points away from the top 4, and then also knocked out of EL anyway as the players are too tired and injured?What then if we don't manage to get a top 4 place and we go out of this tournament.

Ok, just hope we don't regret it if we go out and made a laughing stock again.What if we kill the first team and we end up being 10+ points away from the top 4, and then also knocked out of EL anyway as he plays are too tired and injured?
We have a very good second string that would walk into all these other teams. We have to trust them.
Let the youngsters get us out the group, if we start progressing then get Pogba, Martial and co in the starting XI, right now I wouldn't risk any of them because of how things are going in the league.What then if we don't manage to get a top 4 place and we go out of this tournament.

Ha ha that may be true, just not great for the team to go on such a long trip then have to play a crucial PL match a few days later!
Btw are you from there !?

Kazakhstan friend of all except Uzbekistan.Okay, but all I'm saying is its a very long trip and will be a hindrance to us in the PL.

Geographically 10% or so of it is in Europe. Either way UEFA and other confederations aren't just Europe or the other continents geographical borders. Israel are in UEFA, and Australia are in Asia for example.Okay, but all I'm saying is its a very long trip and will be a hindrance to us in the PL.

Would've been easier to just copy my post.this has to be a game for the B team/kids
-----------------------Romero-----------------------
Young----Tuanzebe----Jones--------Rojo
------------------Matic----Fred-------------------
Lingard----------Gomes------------Chong
----------------------Greenwood-----------------
Reckon Ole might want a mixture of youth/experience
The name Astana sounds so fake to me. I can't shake the feeling that this is some elaborate wind by EUFA.
Assuming they turn out to be a real football club and the game oes ahead as planned, this is the team I would play:
DDG4-0 United.
AWB Tuanzebe Jones Young
Fred Garner
Gomes
Lingard Greenwood Chong
James with all four.
What is funny?
James Garner Maybe
great minds ehWould've been easier to just copy my post.
It kind of is? It just means "Capital" in Kazakh. The city was renamed earlier this year.The name Astana sounds so fake to me. I can't shake the feeling that this is some elaborate wind by EUFA.

I’ve been beating the drum to play the kids more, but I actually think for this fixture, we should have a reasonably experienced side.
Long travel schedule, lots of distractions, etc. If Astana get a lucky goal at the start of the match and we don’t have experience on the pitch, it could be tough for the lads.
what cracks me up is people expecting our youth players to want to stay/learn while maybe getting one game a year. It is a freaking team from kazakhstan. If we can't win with a healthy mix of players we are expecting to contribute throughout the year then we have bigger issues. Also ignoring the fact that we are already seeing fitness injuries cropping up, but hey keep playing the "first team" every single week when we have 2-3 matches a week. What cracks me up is every name you mentioned except williams (who i havent seen all that many people expecting to see this game) have been on the bench for us at some point this season. A home europa league match against a team from kazahkstan would be normally seen as the time to rotate in subs, but yet we shouldnt because our subs happen to be younger? Makes no sense. If a team that could still trot out veterans such as romero, young, jones, fred, lingard and maybe guys like rojo/matic cant handle Astana then we have other issues. Absolutely no reason all those you mentioned, bar williams as i said previously, shouldnt be starting the game. Can still keep players like rashford, james, mata, etc on the bench if we need them.We should play best possible team first 3, maybe 4 games, to win it all, 5th game is on another planet so kids should go there while other should stay home and get some rest.
Makes me laugh when I see Garner,
Chong, Greenwood, Gomes, Williams, Axel in first team line up here on internet, like this is some kind of friendly. Every team playing at OT gives it best, the fact we know nothing about Astana, does not mean our kids will smash thwm 5-0. Also pretty sure if we play kids and lose game it will be like: "why playing kids in game like this", "(name of the player) is shite and will never make it/not United player". But so far every game they don't play they get better and better. Soon they will be world class players.
