I hope thats true, I'd like to see how a few of those players get on, even if the risk is there of a disjointed performance due to too many changes.

Good result for millwall. Only watched the first half but Morrison was the best player on the park delighted he got the goal.

Interesting if bastie starts today apparently he was added to the Europa squad too

Back to quick slick passing today and hope we have our finishing boots on.

4 zip Rashford brace.

Get your hat ready Jayo:pac:

Basti first goal would be nice to see, so are Martial Mata and Mkhitaryan the three musketeers or more mouseketeers.

jayo26

Shaw is looking trim and bastian looking happy and tfm looks like beast.

Mr.Crinklewood

Saha not starting.

Lovely moment with Bobby and Rooney

C'mon United,we don't want to look like turkeys after crowing about yesterday's result.

Hope will griggs flame is extinguished

Martial not started magnificently

jayo26

Woodward has been busy we have an official tractor partner now also at long last

Johner

How is that not a booking for Fellaini.

Trigger

I'd say it's one of those "too early to be a booking".. ridiculous really.. was a definite yellow

is the query that has rung out across these lands for years now! He only gets done on the third or fourth indiscretion

jayo26

Midfield is too slow with bastian and Fellaini playing

limnam

basti looking rusty

Martial giving the ball away 3 times now 4 attempts

Midfield very slow

ankles

So unsurprisingly a midfield axis of Fellaini and Schweinsteiger looks slow and clumsy

Lucas Hood

Probably the slowest midfield united have ever played.

Don't forget Carrick alongside Schweinsteiger

Basti will need some time. He's had 16 mins of action in 7 months.

Does Rooney expect to have 30 seconds with ball when he receives it?

Wigan looking a little hungrier and a lot better

Harry Palmr

Wigan - Connelly with a great chance to drive into the area but elects not to.

Johner

Wigan doing pretty well so far.

Wigan have all the bite
Terrible so far from Utd
