Any info on squad selected for the game? Not the starting 11. Wondering if Ronaldo is on the list.

 

[bosskeano]

Glad he added all those youngsters to the roster....IMO, there is NO reason to play any regular XI player tonight

Let the young guys play and give the fringe players time tonight to play and learn the system

If tweet fails to show:

Ralf Rangnick stayed behind at Carrington today to drill #mufc youngsters at Carrington to prepare them for their possible debut tonight. Rangnick did the coaching personally.

 

[DevilsOwn]

If tweet fails to show:

If they, the youngsters, are debuting tonight, they wouldn't be doing on pitch training. Would they??

 

[The-Natural]

Even though it's a dead rubber game still really looking forward to watching to see more of the impact of the new coaching system.

 

[bosnian_red]

So probably:

Henderson
Wan Bissaka Bailly Mengi Shaw
VdB Matic
Lingard Mata
Elanga Greenwood​

Amad possibly for one, or just as a sub. I like to see full rotation when it's obvious we need full rotation. So many refuse to do it.

 

[bosnian_red]

If they, the youngsters, are debuting tonight, they wouldn't be doing on pitch training. Would they??

As a sub sure. But the starting 11 is definitely going to be made up of the 13 players that were bussed separately (full b team).

Might just have a been brief exercise so they understand their role when they come on with 15 mins to go. They won’t get many minutes.

So Heaton will miss out. Last spot feels as if it is between Mata and Amad.

If tweet fails to show:

Maybe this will mean we are still able to play the same way no matter who is on the field tonight, basically there wouldn't be a noticeable drop-off.

 

[No Idea For Nickname]

Until I was about 14 I thought that Charlton Athletic was named in honour of Bobby

Meh, I thought Arsenal was named after Arsene. No kidding.

Amad should be on that pitch before Lingard Mata and Elanga imo

 

[Hester_manc]

This match is important. Not because we need the points, but we will have to keep winning to create a flow and regain confidence. There is no room for defeat right now.

Manchester United players: "What is drill?"

Depends on the lineup.

 

[Artimities]

I am envisioning a pressing attacking game with a squad that has probably worked more with RR than the starters. Youth and desire will push an interesting game/ flow tonight. I for one, think we may see us bag 3-4 goals, but either way, I cant wait to see some of these younger players get a chance on the biggest stage.

 

[DWelbz19]

Just over 2 hours until Amad makes history

Armadillo had trick?

That's some fine British weather right there

No wonder Zlatan left

Where's Paddy's leaked line up?

My lower back is starting to hurt just watching that

Where's Paddy's leaked line up?

If he's posting one, it'll most likely be 15 mins before line-ups are posted by the United account - so he'll post it around 6:30pm UK time.

 

[Reditus]

Went for Mata over Amad but also put Mata as sub. So either way should get a point. Also had no other option but put Heaton as a sub too

 

[unplayable]

Interesting that there seems to be no leak today.

 

[Dr. Dwayne]

Interesting that there seems to be no leak today.

It was Carrick all along.

 

[talking robot]

Dont want to see Mata starting. Would strongly prefer for Amad to get the minutes.

 

[Hoof the ball]

Juan would think that Ralf would be Amad man if it's a Mata of him starting ahead of Diallo.

 

[RedPed]

When I look at that squad out there,. nothing makes sense.

 

[Random Task]

Interesting that there seems to be no leak today.

Would he really start both Amad and Elanga in an important CL game? Seems like an unnecessary risk if you ask me.

If he's so keen to play the youngsters, why not go full strength tonight, secure qualification, then play them in the dead rubber game in a couple of weeks?

 

[Annihilate Now!]

Didn't Amad have a knock that kept him out over the weekend?

Qualification and top spot already confirmed

Are you okay, RT? We've won the group and this is the last group game. There's no more after tonight.

this is the dead rubber game.

All but confirms that Paddy’s “leaks” are simply access to privileged, embargoed PL info.

 

[hungrywing]

He had depression over being more than good enough to be getting first team minutes. The sports psychologist prescribed him minutes as a cure.

 

[RedPed]

Huh? We’ve won the group

We have a better H2H with both Atalanta and Villarreal so even if we lose and Villarreal win, we will still remain top by virtue of that.

 

[Random Task]

Yeah, I realised I'd gone wrong somewhere shortly after I posted. I thought I'd swiftly log back in and delete the evidence of my idiocy, but it had already gotten 3 replies.

Dammit.

 

[TMDaines]

Matic at CB, Mata in pivot?
