[Alabaster Codify7]

No excuses for less than 4 goals to be honest. Burton are terrible and that's an experienced team, for the most part.

 

[Moonred]

11/11. Yayy.

 

[Walters_19_MuFc]

Why does a Championship team makes 9 changes to play at OT? Shouldn't they go for it and play their best team?

Their priority is to stay in the Championship.

 

[Android1974]

It would be extra-fun if this was a 3-5-2, but highly unlikely since Mata would have to be a central midfielder.

 

[el3mel]

That would be fine by me.
Let's be honest he's had a brilliant career at United, but long term it would be more beneficial to see some young lads playing dead rubbers like this against a genuinely poor side.

I don't disagree about him being past it, but as long as he's in the club having a contract and got paid a salary per week, he must be a choice for the manager to play and always be ready, otherwise we wouldn't have given him a new contract.

 

[No Idea For Nickname]

The Burton Chairman seems like a good fella.

Because he said"Best club in the world"? Good man.


Anyway, full house or Emptyhad like?

 

[Fully Fledged]

Their chance is very slim anyway so it's understandable for them to focus on Championship.

What's their position in the league btw ?

19th

 

[pauldyson1uk]

I think if we score and don't concede we'll win

 

[TheGame]

Good to see we are putting a strong team out. Should be an example to other clubs.

 

[Maradona10]

Any links to the game Would be really appreciated ?

 

[Android1974]

MUTV commentators agree with me at Burton disappointment.

 

[RedPed]

Got 10/11. Fellaini instead of Mata. That's a strong lineup. Should be a 5-0.

 

[TheGame]

No. They're unlikely to win and have a hugely important league game on Saturday.

I don't blame them.

Its one game FFS! Really hate it when teams decide to put weakened teams out so that it helps them in their league. Pathetic reasoning, surely playing at Old Trafford would benefit the players.

 

[Walters_19_MuFc]

No excuses for less than 4 goals to be honest. Burton are terrible and that's an experienced team, for the most part.

1-0 it is then.

 

[Dec9003]

I don't disagree about him being past it, but as long as he's in the club having a contract and got paid a salary per week, he must be a choice for the manager to play and always be ready, otherwise we wouldn't have given him a new contract.

That's my point though, maybe he should be a coach by now instead.

 

[Android1974]

Their manager said the players should just enjoy it. Fair enough. But do you imagine Mourinho tell that any game whatsoever? Even a friendly…

 

[saivet]

Burton not even playing a full strength team then

 

[el3mel]

That's my point though, maybe he should be a coach by now instead.

It's his last season I believe. Don't expect us to give a new contract again at the end of this season.

 

[Member 21058]

If Shaw can't start a game like this when will he ever get a chance.

 

[whatwha]

Looking forward to Rashford missing at least one-on-one with the GK.

 

[Duafc]

Their manager said the players should just enjoy it. Fair enough. But do you imagine Mourinho tell that any game whatsoever? Even a friendly…

Chalk and cheese.

If Mourinho was managing Burton Albion against United I'd bet he'd say the same. What do you want from the man.

 

[haram]

Looking forward to Rashford missing at least one-on-one with the GK.

Looking forward to both Martial and Rashford bagging a goal or two tonight.

 

[VeevaVee]

Like whom though? All our good young players are on loan, save for Axel who is injured.

He is? Fack knows then but it would be nice ok *runs away*

 

[Damien]

Its one game FFS! Really hate it when teams decide to put weakened teams out so that it helps them in their league. Pathetic reasoning, surely playing at Old Trafford would benefit the players.

Burton manager said he's rewarding the players who got them this far by playing them which is fair enough.

 

[Irrational.]

That Dominoes Mascot Mayhem ad is pure visual genital warts.

 

[pauldyson1uk]

Gone for a 5-0 easy home win , but looking at the team and the under strength Burton team , we could score more.

 

[BenjaminP]

19th. Even so, history could be made.

History my A**. History won't keep the manager's job. Their position in the league will.
You from wonderland? Keep it real.

 

[12OunceEpilogue]

If Shaw can't start a game like this when will he ever get a change.

I hope he gets some good minutes tonight

 

[Trizy]

Good starting 11. Hope Shaw gets minutes and we have no injuries.

 

[Nogbadthebad]

Just so some of you understand, because it seems ot be lost how well burton do just to stay in the championship, the club record signing cost £500K.

Until about 8 weeks ago, that record was £200K.

 

[botond]

4-5-1 ?

 

[Sassy Colin]

Gone for a 5-0 easy home win , but looking at the team and the under strength Burton team , we could score more.

I went for 4-0 on the basis that it's our favourite score this season.

 

[Jazz]

Would love for both Martial and Marcus to score

 

[Drifter]

Let's not play around

 

[Earthquake]

Burton manager said he's rewarding the players who got them this far by playing them which is fair enough.

Aye, actually a good showing by Clough.

 

[iKnowNothing]

Gah! 10/11. I knew Mata would play but then opted for Fellaini instead because I thought Jose might want some strong physical presence in the box.

 

[utdalltheway]

ESPN3 Streaming.

Thanks! I'm on it now.

 

[RedFish]

Forgot Lindelof existed.

 

[RedFish]

Come on Ander! You're fighting for your United career! Bollocks

 

[Irrational.]

Burton have started well.
