It has at least been better this season I think compared to other years. Although not sure what the hell is going on with Pogba though. Mctominay seem to be just some bad luck. Jones seem to have been fit for some time now, but never gets to play anyway.
Of course we still have Bailly gone forever and not sure what is going on with him.

Pogba had a surgery today or yesterday.

Pogba had a surgery today or yesterday.

Been having surgery every day since the 2nd according to some

 

[charlenefan]

So that's Pogba, Mctominay, Martial, Maguire and Lingard all out injured.

We're fast approaching our second injury crisis of the season and we're barely halfway through it.

Martial and Lingard are both involved

Little quiz for you to do to pass the time: https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/50977589

[Paul_Scholes18]

More counter attacks from Pep with that team I think. It is sadly a good side without Stones.

27 for me but couldnt spell gundogan (still probably wrong!)

 

[RedSky]

Well Otamendi is starting at least, so thats good news. I will be staggered if we get a draw/win tonight.

 

[KGBhoy]

Jones starting. Martial on the bench.

 

[top1whoisman]

 

[charlenefan]

No Matic is strange, it's an awful line up

 

[Nep77]

Ole starts his darling Lingard

 

[Adam-Utd]

Looks like silva or sterling playing as a false 10?

 

[Judas]

Bit bizarre that Matic isn't starting.

 

[RedSky]

Is Young injured? Not even on the bench?

 

[RedIan]

Team to play Man City: De Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Jones, Lindelof, Williams, Fred, Pereira, James, Lingard, Rashford, Greenwood.
Subs: Romero, Dalot, Matic, Chong, Gomes, Mata, Martial.

 

[Paul_Scholes18]

Not the best side. Even if Matic is old and slow I would have wanted him in that midfield over Pereira and Lingard. Also sadly De Gea in goal. Jones has not played for ages either.

Hope we can get something out of this.

 

[ManRed]

Shaw injured? Not even on the bench

 

[P-Ro]

Bravo in goal. United must be favourites now.

 

[Rasendori]

Mahrez is in top form - will be interesting to see if Williams can hold his own better than Chilwell managed

 

[always_hoping]

So that line up confirms Maguire is added to the long list of injuries. Jones v City could turn out to be a total nightmare.

Pleased that Williams is picked over Young and Shaw. Not too pleased that Lingard is starting again. Martial is at least on the bench.

 

[Wednesday at Stoke]

Fred, Andreas and lingard vs Gundogan, de bruyne and Bernardo. Yikes!

 

[Asger]

Yes! Fan fav Lingard starts

 

[groovyalbert]

Screwed for when Jones has to limp off after 20 mins

 

[Gasolin]

Been having surgery every day since the 2nd according to some

Err ok but that one is real, or whatever... I am tired of this situation. We are unlucky, but we also need to get through this one way or another.

 

[dove]

My JLingz shall always play.

 

[top1whoisman]

Bravo in goal. United must be favourites now.

If only we could get a shot on target

 

[2 man midfield]

Phil Jones versus Manchester City’s attack might be the thing that finally finishes him off. I wouldn’t be surprised to hear after the game that he’s sprained his mind and is out for a decade.

 

[mancan92]

Christ were gonna get bummed

 

[Kostov]

Ole plays his darling again. feck off

 

[King Andow]

They're not ready for the bubbly character, too strong!

 

[flappyjay]

Lingard is definitely Ole's love child.

 

[Gasolin]

Team to play Man City: De Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Jones, Lindelof, Williams, Fred, Pereira, James, Lingard, Rashford, Greenwood.
Subs: Romero, Dalot, Matic, Chong, Gomes, Mata, Martial.

Pereira in the 8 role? That will be difficult... he's not good with tracking and covering that famous half space that will be exploited if AWB and James push up. But it's good to see Williams, I think he's going to attack a lot on the right. I hope Rashford drift left and Greenwood plays as the false 9 a la Martial, that would provide the number in midfield.

 

[Paul_Scholes18]

I think our best hope is that City are happy with say a 1-1 draw or something like that. Can't see us doing much today though with the midfield we got.

Lingard played well last time against City, but Mctominay was the real giant with Fred. Martial was key for our attack too so this side is much weaker.

 

[Walters_19_MuFc]

No Matic is strange, it's an awful line up

Pereira gives us legs, if nothing else. That's how we beat them at the Etihad.

God know's what system City are going with tonight, though.

Their last few games have seen them use a 343, but Pep has previously experimented with a 4231.

 

[RedIan]

we just need to shoot on target, ive never seen Bravo make a save of a shot on target.

 

[hobbers]

Jones

 

[TrustInOle]

Rashford captain today! Bold line up from Ole going with Andreas and Jesse. Lets have it

 

[Alvaro Maestre]

Ole plays his darling again. feck off

Agent Mino doing wonders!!

 

[lysglimt]

Lingard is definitely Ole's love child.

Considering this comes on the day when most rumours are saying that he is practically finished at United, I doubt it.
