About fecking time a manager had the balls to drop him. Ridiculous it's taken this long. Expect some "leaks" in the press over the next week or so attacking Mourinhos methods

 

[horsechoker]

IT'S HAPPENED, IT'S ACTUALLY HAPPENED

it's messed up my line-up prediction, but he has finally been dropped, Big Match Wayne Rooney has been dropped!

Now watch us play shit and Roo save the day.

 

[Ban]

Now lets win this.

 

[villain]

Pogba & Herra midfield, Mata #10 !!

 

[Revan]

Partially happy. Would have preferred if he was left completely out of the match squad, but hey, it is a good start.

 

[Mitser]

So what is the team?

 

[freshibal]

Now don't feck this up guys

 

[YouOnlyLiveTwice]

That midfield looks fragile.

Rooney dropped is nice though.

 

[Rightnr]

Thank you based, Mou. Drop him for good and get top 4 and this season's a success.

 

[WPMUFC]

ROONEY DROPPED!!!

 

[Tom Van Persie]

Rooney dropped!

 

[Android1974]

Crazy lineup coming up! Herrera and Pogba alone in midfield?

 

[Judas]

Please please can we actually play better with him out of the team, need a big performance.

 

[spwd]

Not on the bench either would be amazing.

Let's not push it .

 

[Kaos]

Yaaaaaay

 

[podurban2]

That looks like a 3-5-2 almost?

 

[Midfield]

I hate that white text and looks like Rooney is on the bench today.

 

[100]

Blind at left back

 

[Scholesy]

 

[Raw]

Blind as DM??

Oh no wait I'm dumb nvm

 

[WPMUFC]

 

[King Eric 7]

The Sun were right for once!

 

[Woodzy]

Woooo. Now lets smash them and keep that cnut out of the team for good.

 

[Rightnr]

Is Martial injured? He's not even on the bench.

 

[Judas]

That midfield is weird, I can see us suffering.

 

[Jacky Quacky]

Oh feck off lingard is starting

 

[Dan]

Thought Carrick would start.

 

[wr8_utd]

It was obviously he's going to be dropped from the second he was in the starting lineup midweek.

 

[Marcelinho87]

Putting him on bench is better than leaving out altogether because they would say taken out of firing line.

This is axed.

Good.

 

[Santoryo]

Time to celebrate

 

[Kostur]

If they feck this up it's all on them, they're fighting for us, our sanity, Mourinho and probably even England's NT.

The teams are in! Here's how #MUFC will line up this afternoon.#MUNLEI

11:30 AM - 24 Sep 2016

 

[Havak]

Rooney dropped is good and sends the right message, but Lingard plays instead? Hope he has a stormer...

 

[Pexbo]

That's a lovely team.

4-2-3-1 with Mata at 10. Mourinho obviously read my post here this morning.

 

[spwd]

I wonder if we'll see any of the game or will it be continuous footage of Wayne.

 

[TrueRed79]

He's still refusing to play Pogba in a 3, which IMO is daft. I don't see a whole lot changing, but am still hoping for the best.

 

[J-Stander]

Lingard genuinely would've preferred Rooney.

 

[Devil may care]

Dropping Rooney is great news and Blind instead of Rojo is another good call, but still playing with a #10 makes no sense, Carrick should be in.

 

[Šjor Bepo]

Rooney dropped and Pogba still not in his best position oh well, at least we are going in the right direction....

 

[matherto]

Shackling Pogba in a two again. Why the feck did we buy him?

 

[Raw]

If we lose this now
