Manchester United Team Talk/Gossip/Rumours Thread 2017

J. Marston

I was looking forward to the novelty of Fellaini up front. Shame.

So after all the talk of fellaini up front, he doesn't even make the starting 11

Impact sub to score a winner in extra time, duh :P

Think we are going to get over run in midfield, not confident at all

Im hoping its 433 as I'd actually like to see how Darmian would do as a DM as he is decent enough on the ball.. though I doubt this match is the match to trial that

Not a chance I'd say

Mutv giving the frights out many Henry said Miki was looking like he had a knock in warmup.

BBC going with Jones as DM

Could be Jones in midfield after all that is where he had one of his best games for united

I think it'll be a tight game with United winning by a single goal.

Jones and Darmian. Ugh!

adox

Fascinated to see how they line up.

Jones in the dm

I hope so much its a 5-4-1 like Chelsea's. The 3-4-3 thing is a myth to make the side seem like it's more attacking on paper. Chelsea have been playing a 5-4-1 all season.

No Carrick is interesting, especially if Jones plays midfield. His fragility in big games has been noted, this selection would suggest Jose agrees.

Jones man marking hazard

541 when defending, 343 when attacking

Jones did a man marking job on Ronaldo when Jose was over Madrid and did very well

GSPfan

Liking the set up so far. Seems like we are crowding them out in their half.

And? So?

Just moving the thread to the next page

Edit: some nice movement there

Rashford just missing that upper body strength

And he did well so that's why he on hazard

Chelsea turning the screw a bit now after an impressive start from Utd.

Valencia please don't get your pocket picked again in your own half. Especially by Hazard.

There was no one to give it to. He needed support.

Have to say we are playing quite well at the moment. Still though we are dodgy in the back

jayo26

Pogba don't defend lads

KH25

Keown and his constant jibes at Jose about Rashford is doing my head in.

Well get rid of it then.

Young has been poor so far.

adox

Wtf happened?

J. Marston

Herrera, what a clown. Coping fine and he does that.

sky88

Ahh felt it was coming even though it wasn't a yellow

adox

Just stupid from Herrera.

You always get the feeling he will do that. Idiotic and most likely cost us the game.

sky88

Why not take off young

sReq | uTeK

Idiotic. Jones has had about 7 fouls and Herrera had 1 before that

Mars Bar

And now De Gea is down

S.M.B.

That's the last thing we need for our hectic run of fixtures.

Because young has played wing back throughout his career and would be a better defender

KH25

I saw a red coming as soon as I saw who was reffing. Loves to bring attention to himself.

wanderer100

Ref might have just ruined the game for us now!!

mewe

For a second yellow that was bloody harsh I thought. He could have given him a warning.

Young will offer more defensively I suppose is the thinking. Disappointed to see Miki off though. The more I think about the foul from Herrera th more annoying it gets.

bangkok

Very soft red card

He can defend.

This can only be a smash and grab it we're going to progress. Young suits that more than Miki.

GSPfan

Deserved bookings. Love Herrera but that was thick.

It'll get bad now.

So Jones playing a game in midfield 4 years ago is why Jose doesn't play Carrick today? Its nothing to do with what Jose thinks of Carrick? Ok. Good lad.

Its working well isn't it?

Meh I blame Herrera.

Need to make it to half time without conceding
