Martial + Rooney injured, Zlatan suspended - RASHFORD STARTS

I would really like to see Own Goal back to his best for tomorrows game. He's been very quiet this season.
 
I just think it's an excuse for Jose to park the bus tomorrow. I don't really mind though. As long as we win by hook or by crook.
 
Just hope both Martial and Rashford are back for the EL game.
 
Fellaini up top with Mkhi and Young playing off him might not be a bad shout. Bogbrush wins the aerial duel and let someone quick chase it down.

To be honest, I'd rather have fellaini playing up top than anywhere near our own half as he is a liability.

I'm far from his biggest fan, but if we get plenty of balls in the box, we might be able to get something useful out of him. I would however welcome Rashford to be recovered from his illness though

This could be a blessing. No need to the hide the fact we were probably going play it long to Ibra. Fellaini is even better in the air. hopefully he can be that beast he was for Everton when played there
 
Mou's wet dream. Looks like a God if he wins and will get a complete pass if he loses.
 
Gives us a good excuse to park the bus. This is doable. De Gea is due a superhuman, physics-defying performance.
 
I swear this is at least the third time Jones has somehow injured Rooney. Has he got it in for him or something?
 
As others have said, as long as we have some strikers back for rostov that is the important thing.

Prem and Europa are the priorities now; FA Cup is just a bonus.
 
We were probably going to lose anyway, so it's not a disaster, as long as they're back soon.

Zlatan is available for rostov so i am not too worried about that, unless he catches rashford's bug then we are screwed.
 
Rooney has gone down hill so much, I'd prefer Fellaini up front. Regular posters know I don't rate Fellaini in the slightest.

Launching the ball up to Fellaini to lay it off for Mata and Mhki while the rest of the team sit back to stop Chelsea's counters could work very well and I suspect this will be Mourinho's plan given the injuries. Then again he will get slated if he plays Fellaini up front so who knows if he will do it.
 
This game has a funny feeling. Everything that has gone wrong has. We have no forwards. I wouldn't be surprised if the game is decided by a freakish goal from Valencia with his left foot.
 
Important to note that any injuries during the game will be disastrous as we won't have any attacking options on the bench plus the game could go to extra time and there will be tired legs.
 
I actually wanted Mourinho to use Mkhitaryan in the "false 9" role against Chelsea so I hope he'll try this:

Mkhi
Young Pogba Fellaini Herrera Lingard​

No room for Mata in there?
