    Top team. Fergie-esque if you will.

    Good blend. Tuanzebe man to watch.
    Think Lingard, Martial and Rashers will link well.
    Missing a pair of young proper wing backs.
    What of Shaw?
    Completely and utterly dead in the water.
     
    The biggest relief for me with this team is seeing Jones on the bench. I also like the idea of Martial and Rashford starting together.
    Jones is fit?? That's a welcome surprise. I thought he would be out for a while. Turns out it wasn't too bad. Very good news.
     
    Wow, Jose almost admitted to over-react last time on post-match presser.
     
    Darmian is no better than any of us caftards.

    You obviously haven't seen me play :nervous:

    I know people reckon it's a 4-2-3-1 (I'm inclined to agree), but it could be a 3-5-2 on another night.

    Romero
    Lindelof Smalling Blind
    Darmian Herrera Tuanzebe McTominay Lingard
    Martial Rashford
    Or swap Tuanzebe and Blind. Or Lingard central and Blind out wide. Options!
     
    Not expecting him to do any wonders with a new set of players. When you are not in the form and then have to again connect with a new set of players, it is unlikely to be much different from previous game.
    He is the senior player in this team tonight. I expect a big response from him after his comments on Saturday.

    Yeah. He can do lot of running and tackling.
    I would love if he becomes super awesome tonight.
     
    Looking forward to watching Tuanzebe. I wonder if he's going to play in a back three or if he's going to be in midfield with Herrera.
     
    Kick-off
    I know these Sky team pictures are universally bad but Alfie Mawson looks like a stone cold prick on his.
     
    The attack will have a tough evening with Van der Hoorn



    So, last season, we had players who when they were in front of an empty goal, could not score, this guy, without trying to, is able to score.
    Perhaps someone should try him out in attack. :lol:
     
    It's an interesting phenomenon how you're basically allowed to do whatever you want to an opponent in terms of tackling if the whistle's already gone.
     
    Both Martial and Rashford up top, could be a straight battle for who startsvs Spurs (though it should be both)
     
    4 mins: Where United players are playing
    Tuanzebe’s in a back three with Smalling and Lindelof. Blind is at left wing-back with Darmian on the right. Lingard is playing with Herrera and McTominay in midfield.
     
    Early days yet but we look so much better away from home playing this formation. More freedom and space for those attacking players.
     
    Fairly entertaining format few minutes. Swansea play nice football, could be an open game.
