According to MEN:

Defense? Who needs defense? The best defense is MORE GOALS!!!

Yeah but it makes no sense. Telles isn't even in the Squad and people can vote for him? Might as well just vote for Van Nistelrooy or Rooney then. And Fernandes is at CDM.

Telles not being in the squad hasn't been officially announced. Obviously folks must have voted for the players they thought were available to play.

According to MEN:

Hilarious

I'll expect Pogba or VdB to not start and at least McT or Fred

 

[sammsky1]

No Team leaks? looks like Ole has tightened up.

Pogba excluded from team meetings?

 

[TRossManUtd8]

Telles and Lindelof out... NO?

 

[MadDogg]

McT and Fred are nailed on if we play a 4-2-3-1. Pogba doesn't have the discipline and Matic doesn't have the legs. Whatever formation we play McT is definitely starting.

Matic should be able to play next to one of them. Indeed that's what we really need so that we can rotate and give them a rest when they need it. I don't think it'll be this game though.

 

[sammsky1]

Pogba excluded from team meetings?

Maybe he made first XI today, so not acting out with a leak sulk!

 

[Forevergiggs1]

Normally I would agree with this, but I think McT and Fred both looked a little sluggish and leggy against Chelsea. I would hope that one or both get rested tonight so they can be back on Sunday. I would also like to see Shaw get some rest, after he was refusing to overlap against Chelsea.

No one knows if its true or not but it's being widely reported that neither Telles or Lindelof were spotted getting off the team bus at the hilton Hotel or were spotted during the training session.

If and it is a big if then Shaw will have to play and if Lindelof is out then I can't see us playing 3 at the back because the alternative would be TFM playing which I can't really see.

McT was at the presser beside Ole so that's normally an indication that he's playing. Whether or not it's with Fred is obviously anyones guess.

I think the defence likes playing with Matic just in front because when they inevitably get themselves in trouble Matic nearly always makes himself available. I'd fancy playing Matic in most games but like yourself I'm not sure this is the game.

 

[OldTrevil]

I'd give the capt. another breather and start with a base of Axel and Victor behind Fred, Pogba, Bruno mid 3. Let the attack build up momentum from start as this could be a slow cooker if we match or better them tactically

De Gea
AWB Tuanzebe Lindelof Shaw
Pogba Fred Bruno
Mason Martial Marcus​

 

[Forevergiggs1]

Well that is good news. Gives us more formation options.

 

[Adam-Utd]

Donny is starting

 

[RUCK4444]

Surprised Bruno is benched even though it’s nice to rest him. Hope the ones desperate for Donny are happy post game.

c’mon United

 

[MonkeysMagic]

Matic, Pogba, Fred, VdB in midfield.
Greenwood and Martial up front.

 

[Adam-Utd]

Looks like a diamond?

 

[Samid]

8/11, bloodbath

 

[Rolaholic]

Would've hoped to see Axel today but good lineup overall if true

oops

 

[T00lsh3d]

Not sure. He is a famous German ***********.

Life without pain has no meaning could be United’s motto

 

[Berbasbullet]

Would've hoped to see Axel today but good lineup overall if true

I’d be delighted with that.

 

[Andycoleno9]

Diamond!!
This is the way.

8/11, bloodbath

 

[FootyGirl88]

Thats a decent team

 

[Charlie Foley]

What is the shape going to be?

 

[Paul_Scholes18]

Anyone got the real team?

 

[Berbasbullet]

What is the shape going to be?

If that’s it then surely the diamond.

 

[Samid]

Anyone got the real team?

 

[sammsky1]

Looks fantastic. Especially as it allows for dangerous offensive players like Bruno, Rashford and Cavani to come on after 65 mins against tiring defenders.

 

[Judas]

Actually using our squad wisely. Sad Axel isn’t playing though.

 

[Berbasbullet]

Oooh matic in? Still looks a diamond

 

[FootyGirl88]

Anyone got the real team?

 

[Charlie Foley]

This is not the team. Matic starts

 

[Berbasbullet]

Telles injured?

 

[sammsky1]

Actually using our squad wisely. Sad Axel isn’t playing though.

Is that a complement for Ole?

 

[Lay]

I like that team.

 

[Forevergiggs1]

oops

Well I did expect him to be on the team coach not getting off the 255

 

[Maureen-yo]

Telles injured?

Yeah, wasn't even in the squad.
