[Lord Zlatan]

Anyone got a river?

 

[Treble_Winning]

Don't have a good feeling about today.
Swapped the defence.
Fuzzball starting.
Only plus is mkhitaryan.

Goodbye winning streak

I wonder why we swapped BOTH Jones and Rojo.

Nonetheless, Jose must have had his reasons.

Let's go for the THREE POINTS!!!!!!

 

[Rado_N]

Literally EVERY. SINGLE. MATCH... people say Fellaini is going to get a red card. He's had 3 in his entire career since coming to England. Over the same period, Herrera has had 6 and Zlatan has had 7. The latter two are more likely to be sent off.

If ever there were a case of a player's reputation going before him, it's with Fellaini.

In fairness he probably should have been sent off a few dozen times for elbows that have been missed.

 

[MichaelRed]

Hopefully Fellaini falls into a coma for 2 hours and we play Basti instead.

 

[Alek M]

Agreed, his reputation and the fact he elbows somebody in the face pretty much every time he goes out to play for us.

And he is generally shit, apart from the odd header.

 

[witchtrials]

Interesting that Bastian is on the bench today.

Probably just a sly ploy by Mourinho to make sure he can't take New Year's Eve off.

 

[cyberman]

Is this Boateng on Sky? He keeps claiming Mkhitaryan came from a different continent

 

[Gasolin]

I wonder why we swapped BOTH Jones and Rojo.

Nonetheless, Jose must have had his reasons.

Let's go for the THREE POINTS!!!!!!

Maybe resting them for the next game in 2 days?

 

[Jacky Quacky]

Same midfield and back four as against Chelsea. I am worried.

 

[Gasolin]

Probably just a sly ploy by Mourinho to make sure he can't take New Year's Eve off.

Shame, Bastian should play in this Carrick role in this team. It would work in my opinion.

 

[JonDahl]

We will walk this. 3/4-0.

 

[PieCrust]

Really surprised that Rojo/Jones dropped. Not because I don't rate Smalling/Bailly, just seems like that center back partnership would be the last thing to distrupt. I find it odd.

 

[AXVnee7]

Should be a formality!

 

[032Devil]

Feck it.....Smalling and Fellaini.

How quickly some fans forget

Zlatan has had 7 red cards!

 

[Varun]

Because giving Pogba and Herrera the chance get forward and press high has worked well for us. I'm guessing Jose wants to keep that going

Unless we're shit, most of the game will be played in their half anyways. Could just have Herrera staying a bit deeper as he does very well.

 

[Lord Zlatan]

Watching this on Sky Sports 5 Ireland. Hayley McQueen has made my day

cheers pal...in Ireland and didnt realise it was on...happy days

 

[Gatti33]

Is this Boateng on Sky? He keeps claiming Mkhitaryan came from a different continent

Haha!! I noticed that as well. He also said negredo had a bad time at Spurs!!! Pretty sure that was Saldado

 

[Acole9]

So the Jones and Rojo partnership has been broken up.

 

[witchtrials]

Shame, Bastian should play in this Carrick role in this team. It would work in my opinion.

Yeah, I'd be interested to see how that worked too. Ah well, Fellaini does sometimes put in decent performances when playing further back so fingers crossed.

 

[kr0nix]

Fellaini... Sigh.

 

[ManUnitedCanuck]

Let's get on the scoresheet early and put them to the sword in teh first half!!!

 

[Needham]

We'll never be a big club unless we beat the likes of Middlesborough.

 

[Walters_19_MuFc]

Probably just a sly ploy by Mourinho to make sure he can't take New Year's Eve off.

Or because without him it'd mean no centre midfielders on the bench.

 

[roseguy64]

Predicted 10/11. Had Schweinsteiger instead of Fellaini

 

[Duafc]

We'll never be a big club unless we beat the likes of Middlesborough.

 

[sizzling sausages]

So the Jones and Rojo partnership has been broken up.

Probably be back in for West Ham. Not a bad idea to rest them, both have played a lot of football recently and both are fairly injury prone.

 

[Slevs]

Didn't notice this was at home, slightly more confident now.

 

[Needham]

Fellaini... Sigh.

It's like having an otherwise enjoyable shave ruined by having to go round a scabby zit.

 

[witchtrials]

Or because without him it'd mean no centre midfielders on the bench.

I wasn't being serious.

 

[njred]

EASY WIN HERE

 

[SqueakyWeasel]

Se ya at HT!

 

[peridigm]

So the Jones and Rojo partnership has been broken up.

I bet they will play Monday. When does Bailly feck off to Africa?

 

[JinnerJamie]

And we're off

 

[RedDevil-85]

Good line up although the donkey is playing.
Hope we get an early goal today!

Lets goooo!!

 

[Raw]

I bet they will play Monday. When does Bailly feck off to Africa?

After the West Ham game I think.

 

[SSSSnake]

Stop the Fellaini hate. Let's hope he has a stormer and then later goes into hibernation for the remainder of the season.

 

[daniel9988]

I'm slightly nervous

 

[Manny]

Oh great, Mikhi can't take corners either

 

[Raw]

Has Mkhi caught the shit corners disease too?
