[Matt851]

Rangnick really has been crap, continued pandering to players who couldn't give a crap

It's hard to imagine we would be any worse with hannibal and a couple of other youngsters given a chance

 

[Skills]

Feck me, Lingard is starting.

Rangnick talks the talk, but he keeps playing the same dross.

You can bet on Mata, Matic, and Rashford to come one as subs.

Has Lingard started any other game recently?

 

[mav_9me]

I think he's given up

Most obvious answer. The players have given up. Rangnick has too. I still don't get Lingard ahead of Rashford. I realize Lingard probably runs more but he is leaving.

Good thing I am not going to watch.

 

[kouroux]

He could drop his pants moon the OT crowd before jumping on the next plane back to moscow and some of you still wouldn't blame him.

I agree with this. Ralf is really underwhelming to say the least

 

[Matt851]

The players are a joke mate. Have been all season.

All the more reason not to play the players who have continually let us down

 

[Red00012]

Matic rightfully dropped for saying he wants out.

Or Matic rested with Tuesday night in mind

 

[Foxbatt]

Funny thing about Lingard starting is that if he has designs on going to West Ham, he'll actually be incentivised to feck us over.

True. Funny selection by Ralf.

 

[Foxbatt]

It may be that he is pressured to start the established players and if they don't deliver he can always take them off and put in the youngsters.

 

[stu_1992]

Scandalously attacking lineup Hopefully it's as fun as the lineup suggests. Probably not though.

 

[slored1]

What a horrific lineup this is. Lingard and Pogba as a two-man midfield, the feck?

 

[EngimaMK]

I've no idea why some of the youth lads aren't getting a chance. So many of the first team squad lack hunger, pride and will to win. How many more chances do they get?

 

[DomesticTadpole]

 

[VidaRed]

Prepare thy lube, were receiving today.

 

[Scarlett Dracarys]

Shave the moustache off?

Yesss

 

[Artimities]

So Lindgard and Pogba get a chance to gain more interest from outside clubs. We are thin in midfield so that might explain it. Did I hear the announcer on tv correctly? Is Matic leaving after this season?

 

[FreakyJim]

Pogba to hold the midfield on his own, this is going to be interesting.

I guess we're prepared to do anything to finish 8th.

 

[Sassy Colin]

Don't worry, other teams will do us a favour and we'll decline to take advantage of it.

 

[DomesticTadpole]

So Lindgard and Pogba get a chance to gain more interest from outside clubs. We are thin in midfield so that might explain it. Did I hear the announcer on tv correctly? Is Matic leaving after this season?

Matic has announced he is leaving, yes.

 

[Massive Spanner]

Christ, not even showing it on Premier Sports in Ireland. That's when you know we're shite.

 

[Adisa]

Funny thing about Lingard starting is that if he has designs on going to West Ham, he'll actually be incentivised to feck us over.

 

[Random Task]

Yeah, he said as much during the week.

 

[stu_1992]

No real visible gaps in the crowd relating to any protest from TV anyway.

 

[Random Task]

FFS, hobbers.

Now I'm gonna be watching him like a fecking hawk

 

[VidaRed]

The english and portugese camps walking out separately

 

[VidaRed]

Spurs dropping points!!!!!!! Which means we will do aswell, our lot will outspur the spurs

 

[Artimities]

Ronaldo will score today. May just bag 2.

 

[RedRonaldo]

Hope we give Garnacho and Mejbri a chance in 2nd half

 

[DomesticTadpole]

The english and portugese camps walking out separately

What do you mean.

 

[United Hobbit]

If those wasters don't put in the required effort today, I hope the fans, who will already be fired up from the protest, really get after them, they need to be shown their performances are not acceptable

 

[McGrathsipan]

Most obvious answer. The players have given up. Rangnick has too. I still don't get Lingard ahead of Rashford. I realize Lingard probably runs more but he is leaving.

Good thing I am not going to watch.

Rashford is a mess. He couldn't kick snow off a rope at the minute

 

[VidaRed]

Rangnick really has been crap, continued pandering to players who couldn't give a crap

It's hard to imagine we would be any worse with hannibal and a couple of other youngsters given a chance

Maybe he doesn't want the youngsters to get off on a bad start while those around them down tool.

 

[Withnail]

Shave the moustache off?

 

[Hernandez - BFA]

Been a while since i've asked for one - but anyone aware of a decent river? My normal visit to Lake VipBox not up my avenue today.

 

[OT1214]

Presume Matic is not starting because of Liverpool game on Tuesday.

 

[VidaRed]

Most obvious answer. The players have given up. Rangnick has too. I still don't get Lingard ahead of Rashford. I realize Lingard probably runs more but he is leaving.

Good thing I am not going to watch.

Feck rashford, i'd take the ball boy starting ahead of rashford.

 

[Dargonk]

Basically playing without any real control or defensive mindset in midfield. I'd expect our defence to be rather exposed at times today. Just have to hope our attack turn up

 

[MyOnlySolskjaer]

Cracknick.

 

[united for life]

The solution for our midfield problems is to play with no midfielders

 

[AFC NimbleThumb]

Maybe he doesn't want the youngsters to get off on a bad start while those around them down tool.

This./

Until the team fully play themselves out of contention he has to select the seniors, given we play Liverpool midweek & Arsenal next weekend I think we’ll see youth after those games.

 

[VidaRed]

Norwich already with 100% possession. Sack rangnick, sell rashford.
