[MDFC Manager]

Watching the teams enter the pitch, I’m struck by the thought that professional footballers seem to be some of the most religious people in the world

It becomes part of their routine/superstition

 

[Ranchero]

Do Everton have a couple of starters out? Surely this isn't their best XI?

A lot out. Only Calvert Lewin, Richarlison and Coleman.

 

[largelyworried]

Salomon Rondon! Ffs, if we don't get a clean sheet today then fire the back five.

 

[Alemar]

Hopefully both Bruno and Greenwood get braces today

 

[CloneMC16]

Martial’s got a real chance to make an impression today. You’d hope he has it in him to deliver.

I feel like we say that every game he starts

 

[Judas]

I just want us to play well and win. Please.

 

[Cloud7]

Its inevitable that Martial will have a game today. Fingers crossed!

Hopefully. Would be great for him to show the player we know he can be.

 

[macheda14]

So what tunes do we think Carrick listens to during the match then?

 

[I Am Zlatan]

True, I just felt Ole could’ve been little more adventurous (with the rotation) and give VDB a chance against Everton (who are missing few key player) at home. But Ole sees him in training, what do we know..

 

[Deery]

Looking at the teams it’s more even than I first thought with United still being the favourite should be a good game.

 

[Annihilate Now!]

Who does Michael Carrick talk to on his ear piece?

 

[red4ever 79]

Carrick with his air pods in. Says it all

 

[pratyush_utd]

Kickoff!

 

[Ranchero]

In your head cause you want there to be unrest

I use my eyes, ears AND head.

 

[Fortitude]

I feel like we say that every game he starts

His chances are genuinely running out now, I feel. So it is a wee bit different than in the past.

 

[Catt]

Hope the team does well and win.

 

[DomesticTadpole]

DCL and Richarlison and James Rodriguez has scarpered.

 

[R'hllor]

Who does Michael Carrick talk to on his ear piece?

MI6

 

[Jazz]

Come on United\!|

 

[Catt]

I use my eyes, ears AND head.

Sure you do...
Perhaps time to go for a check-up.

 

[Terry Chango]

I think he is trying to show who's boss by dropping big characters such as Pogba and Ronaldo and still not using Van De Beek. Don't buy the 'freshening up' comment from Ole. He is acting like an insecure manager who is trying to assert his authority. Huge mistake. Even if we win today i sense dressing room unrest.

He is the boss though right….he’s allowed to roll the dice and Ronaldo cannot play every single minute and I’m actually impressed by ole for showing some balls.

Im not saying he’s got it right but let’s at least see after the 90mins.

I see you are covering all bases by the bolded part. Smart

Come on UTD

 

[DomesticTadpole]

So what tunes do we think Carrick listens to during the match then?

Dire Straits.

 

[peridigm]

I predict Pickford will gift us a goal.

 

[Red Stone]

Posted this in the Aston Villa match thread:

"It's like they're trying to give us a consecutive streak of shite refs recently. Atkinson, Moss and Dean in the space of a week. Feck off.

We're definitely getting Oliver against Everton, right?"

Not surprised at all.

 

[hellhunter]

We're not Liverpool, mate

 

[GifLord]

Nice play by Bruno and Shaw

 

[Catt]

I predict Pickford will gift us a goal.

I'd take that.

 

[DickDastardly]

Let's win this please

 

[NewGlory]

Pogba and Sancho on the bench, fecking Martial playing. Fred and McT starting.

Feck you too, Ole.

 

[Pat_Mustard]

Silky little flick from McTom there!

Amazingly shite bunch of referees that.

 

[Shark]

Good start.

I think the issue is that all refs are shit

 

[GifLord]

AWB

 

[CloneMC16]

Good start by us. Hopefully we carry on in this form.

 

[Sparky_Hughes]

So what tunes do we think Carrick listens to during the match then?

Kylie Minogue, lucky.

 

[Red Stone]

Amazingly shite bunch of referees that.

Just regular life in the Premier League, innit?

 

[Catt]

Everton have done pretty well points wise

 

[Rob Bowman]

His chances are genuinely running out now, I feel. So it is a wee bit different than in the past.

Running out... ?

Who here would start him over Lingard or Sancho based on what we have seen in games?

 

[2 man midfield]

Dalot is bad but Wan Bissaka is so frustrating
