When were you in a optimistic mode?

Against Liverpool and look how that went. Expect Stoke to turn us over convincingly later.

 

[quethenoo]

I know that post is superstitious but it does always feel that every time I'm scrabbling around for a dodgy stream, United are churning out a shitfest, trying to break down some awful side. Doubly adding to my frustration!

The two must be related!

Ahh spot on!

 

[Janson]

Any news on the team? I think Carrick will play and Rojo/Jones aswell. There's no need for any changes to counter there style of play I think. It's to risky to experiment now.

Anyone think Martial will start? I think it will be:

Rooney===Zlatan====Mikhi
======Pogba=Herrera===
=======Carrick=======

Ireland have had 3pm games for years. It was setanta for a long time including last season but sky bought the rights for Ireland

I don't miss watching setanta

Oh yeah. Setanta. Feck Setanta. Glad they're back on Sky.

 

[Damien]

any news from the Lowry?

The players will be in Stoke. No news from the MEN on who travelled.

 

[villain]

Have a feeling Fellaini will start

 

[Shiva87]

Can anyone suggest a good pub in Ho Chi Minh City to watch the game tonight? I'm staying at an Airbnb rental near district 1.

 

[Ixion]

Schweinsteiger has tweeted about the game so he's probably on the bench.

Is it match day yet? Last post was 11 minutes ago. I don't know what to make of this

M.E.N. always seem to get a squad with players missing.

United squad vs Stoke
Spotted getting off the bus:

• Jones
  
• Rooney
  
• Carrick
  
• Valencia
  
• Fosu-Mensah
  
• Rashford
  
• Lingard
  
• Herrera
  
• De Gea
  
• Smalling
  
• Zlatan
  
• Darmian
  
• Mkhitaryan
  
• Romero

That’s 14 confirmed, six still to be confirmed including third keeper Joel Pereira. One outfield player normally travels as the spare 19th man.

Yeah, more likely to get a response.

Missing ones will probably be: Pogba, Rojo, Blind, Martial and Fellaini. Young and Shaw probably didn't travel.

 

[IrishRedDevil]

Have a feeling Fellaini will start with Herrera and Pogba.

[DomesticTadpole]

Three more confirmed squad members
Fellaini, Pogba and Schweinsteiger also confirmed at the Bet365 Stadium. That takes the number up to 17, so short two outfield players.

Hahaha! Thanks for the smart alec response. Obviously I think locals in HcMC will do a better job than Google..

Anyway - if you don't want to respond you can ignore the post!!

Surely Rojo and Martial?

 

[DomesticTadpole]

Surely Rojo and Martial?

So no Blind?

 

[Samid]

 

[DWelbz19]

Where is Martial?

 

[horsechoker]

Fellaini over Carrick

 

[Donut]

Is Martial injured or he pissed off Mourinho again?

 

[Damien]

So no Blind?

Well with Fosu-Mensah being seen I thought Blind would be too much in terms of fullback options, and Mourinho tends to prefer Darmian starting.

Great, no Martial again.

 

[the hea]

Where is Martial?

Off to West Ham? lol

 

[DWelbz19]

Off to West Ham?

That £30m deal to offload Payet is done then?

 

[IrishRedDevil]

Have a feeling Fellaini will start with Herrera and Pogba.

Predictable.

Carrick looked shattered last week so needs rested and he is rewarding Fellaini for his cup goal and hitting the post v Liverpool.

 

[Jacky Quacky]

Martial and Rojo? Thought Mourinho said there are no injuries

 

[villain]

Have a feeling Fellaini will start

Knew it

 

[Ban]

Cur the panic about Martial.

 

[Android1974]

10, had Rooney instead of Mata.

Rojo and Martial definitely injured.

 

[DomesticTadpole]

Great, no Martial again.

Blind is there starting, he must have ghosted off the coach. No Rojo either, he was on social media last night. Whoever said Fellaini would start was 100% right.

 

[Walters_19_MuFc]

De Gea
Valencia Smalling Jones Blind
Fellaini Herrera Pogba
Mata Ibrahimovic Mkhitaryan​

Happy with that team.

What i'm concerned with; however, is that Mourinho said we had no injuries, which begs the question as to why Martial and Rojo are not in the squad.

 

[izec]

Dont like the lineup, but lets see

 

[Fracture90]

Mourinho deserves to be sacked for the sole reason of completley fekin up my lineup prediction score with his crazy lineups.

 

[ThaReaper01]

4-2-3-1 is shit. Hasn't worked all season. Draw, if we're lucky.

 

[SuperiorXI]

Good decision to have Fellaini screening the defence, I think he is going to have a good game.

 

[SwansonsTache]

Is Rojo injured?

 

[Leftback99]

The treatment of Martial is going to cause problems.

Expected Smalling to come in sooner or later.
