Glad that Fernandes is starting. Really looking forward to this game.

 

[RedTiger]

I think there is more expectation placed upon bruno's shoulders than any other player in the last decade.

It's more hope than anything, because we're also at our lowest point in the last decade.

We need a bit of light. Come on BRUNO!!!

The expectations on him are no different to our expectations of Pogba when he came back to the club.

I'm watching The Kick off live (True Geordie) and they always bring in doom and gloom banter United fans in everytime who agrees to their crews banter against United. Esp. after they had Adam McKola who actually stood up for United in the show and didn't go on with their banter, and he hasn't been on the show since.

Feck that shitshow. True Georgie is nothing but a stupid prick.

Adam was on the other week?

 

[Irrational.]

We have to win today, otherwise we say goodbye to top four.

 

[Loon]

Fernandes looks like the Luis Suarez/David Silva love child.

 

[Dve]

Quite happy with that line-up, the vocal point not playing Pereira as DM.

 

[mitchmouse]

Love to say, Bruno will make a difference (bit surprised to see him start but glad).. however, I have a bad feeling. Wolves haven't won at OT since (I think) 1960.... just like Burnley hadn't. Think we may lose 2-1

 

[Amarsdd]

Adam was on the other week?

ok he was, I completely missed that. I might have just given it a miss as it was against Liverpool and I can't handle Lawrence's smugness.

Although I’m exited fir the match, I’m really not sure we’ll win. At the end of the day we’ve just recently been beaten 0-2 at home to Burnley.

 

[NewGlory]

Everybody needs to calm the feck down. The game has not started yet, none of you knows what position he will be playing exactly yet. You cannot tell that from the friggin published line-up.

Whatever the tactical scheme Ole gave them, you can be sure of one thing - Bruno's eyes will be fixated on the goal and on the lines between and behind the defenders, and he will be RUTHLESS. Bruno is a shark and he will bite. Everything else is a detail.

Glory, glory, Man United!

 

[TheReligion]

Great to see Bruno but not confident with that team. Matic a very big loss.

 

[NewGlory]

Fernandes looks like the Luis Suarez/David Silva love child.

love this!

 

[redshaw]

Tough with Matic out for Bruno to be in his preferred position. Pereira Fred would be pretty bad and this is Wolves who are very strong in there. Bruno will probably do a bit of everything which he is good at anyway.

I'm hoping Bruno brings the feel-good factor to the club and indirectly raises performance levels from the whole team.

 

[SER19]

You're being disingenuous. Lampard was a midfielder but playing in a midfield two he was always much worse than playing in a three with freedom to attack. Fernandes has primarily played the same way so there's legitimate concern about whether we've bought another player that doesn't fit into our setup and we're going to try and reinvent him.

Fred does get through an awful lot of work but he's not a defensive midfielder who can carry the midfield singlehandedly. Fernandes will need to be very responsible or we'll be vulnerable. Nice to have someone with creativity from deep though!

Hell be playing in a three though surely? Fernandes, fred plus 1. Which may be pereira today. I don't know where else he's expected to play or how it's assumed he's a 'defensive midfielder' something we haven't had conventionally for a long time.

 

[FreakyJim]

God help us.

God with our injuries our team is so bad. Just want Pogba and Rashford in this team. McTominay too. Then our team doesn't look so bad.

 

[SER19]

I think it's Fred fernandes pereira. James left, mata right. Just my hunch

 

[TheGodsInRed]

Looks a suicidal lineup to me. We will get stung on the counter with no holding midfielder. Our defence looks better with Matic in the team, not that he could play.

 

[Irrational.]

If Fernandes is not on penalty, FK and corner duty and we leave them to some set piece fraud like Fred or Pereira I will be very disappointed.

 

[Ronaldo's ego]

Hugging the opposition, get rid...

 

[SCJY]

Suicidal? How is it suicidal if we don't have a holding midfielder who can play?

 

[pacifictheme]

Don't think i'll ever get bored of this is the one.

 

[Catt]

Great to see Bruno but not confident with that team. Matic a very big loss.

Think we will struggle here.

 

[Crashoutcassius]

Really weak 11. Swapping matic for Bruno in his first game doesn't make much difference

 

[RedDevilRoshi]

Don't think i'll ever get bored of this is the one.

Same.

Quality tune

 

[morbidsaint]

Donkey who said Fernandes was playing behind Mata... Anything to hate on Ole... Well??

 

[bondsname]

My god, watching the players walk onto the pitch is fecking dramatic. Feels like I'm watching a movie.

Esp. after they had Adam McKola who actually stood up for United in the show and didn't go on with their banter, and he hasn't been on the show since.

The United fan who they've invited today is hilarious.

 

[TheRedHearted]

Glad he's starting, might chuck a fiver on him to score anytime.

Williams in for Shaw and Greenwood on for James and that's as good a side as we can put out ATM.

Would rather Greenwood on for Mata and James and martial in a front three with Greenwood. Then a three man midfield of Periera, Fred, and Bruno. Would prefer Periera at the top of that since Bruno is a better defender.

Love to say, Bruno will make a difference (bit surprised to see him start but glad).. however, I have a bad feeling. Wolves haven't won at OT since (I think) 1960.... just like Burnley hadn't. Think we may lose 2-1

Take a breath, mate.

 

[Irrational.]

Is this the first time we've played a team without an academy product in the line-up?

EDIT: Forgot about Pereira.

 

[Random Task]

Great to see Bruno but not confident with that team. Matic a very big loss.

You could probably count on one hand the number of times that's been said this season.

Matic has certainly stepped it up in Mctominay's absence.

 

[Bebestation]

It's literally a match against his national team, he should be feeling at home.

 

[The Firestarter]

Bruno looking a bit worried .

 

[duffer]

No Ighalo? Dropped already?

 

[ThinkTank@Cafe]

Pereira, with his attitude and stamina, should be of a bigger value deeper than as a 10. It’s Pereira though...

 

[Catt]

My god, watching the players walk onto the pitch is fecking dramatic. Feels like I'm watching a movie.

Does it bother you? I like it tbh.

 

[Irrational.]

Looks like he's playing furthest of a midfield three of him, Pereira and Fred.

 

[Random Task]

That cheer for Bruno was deafening
