Carabao Cup 3rd Round: Manchester United v Burton Albion 20:00 Sky Sports

HONKEY TONK

I'd take a comfortable win for United here with a much-changed 11 from the league regulars.

I do expect a United second-string team to win here, but Burton Albion are not laughable fodder. They've been doing quite well climbing the leagues the last few years.

Unfortunately for them though, the Championship seems to be the limit of that climb with them currently treading water in the Championship's relegation zone. So I'd be expecting any United team to be able to handle them at Old Trafford tonight.

There is the unpredictability of cup games, but United should be winning this without much drama. If we go out of a cup at this stage, I'll be a bit livid. Trophies are nice, especially when you have the squad to contend for them, which we do. No excuses tonight, unless Jose literally names the entire U-23 team for this fixture. In which case, we have some problems.

Be nice to see Angel Gomes. He is doing a bit of a Sancho at the moment and not signing the contract offer, involvement here could help.

NUTZZ

Shaw on the bench!

Would have preferred MC Tom in there rather than Mata who Jose will surely be selling in January as clearly sees him as nothing more a Carabao cup level luxury player. #12monthsago

All trolls welcome - ye've had a quiet few weeks

Id love to have seen a few youngsters but I understand that Jose has to keep giving game time to senior players. Any chance it is a 4-4-2 with Martial & Rashford up top together?

Expect Burton to take a bad beating here
They have made 9 changes too!! Eyes on the championship.

Rashers

Lovely finish!
Lovely touch from Jese!

Credit to Albion
They are giving it a good go but mistakes will be pounced on

HONKEY TONK

With this team giving Albion so much possession they are not doing themselves any favors getting into the starting XI for a PL game

Great save

Mars Bar

Mata with a cheeky nutmeg

Great attempt from Martial

wanderer100

Oh Martial that would have been so sexy

Trigger

Between the two chances, as much as I love scissor kick goals, the touch by mata for the nutmeg would have easily made it a better goal for me

Trigger

Burton RB should have been booked by now, that's 4 cynical fouls on Martial

Utd playing some seriously sexy stuff

Glorious from Martial

Trigger

Martial was unreal there

Lindlelof has alot to learn, I'm confident however the little mistakes will ween themselves out

Ridiculous from the ref

A long way to go with him but there is zero rush to put him in. If push came to shove I would expect Blind to start at CB before him at the moment.

Trigger

Wtf is this ref smoking.. king fu kick cantona would have been proud of

KombuchaMshroom

Pretty bad tackle by Smalling there, using his neck to attack that guys studs..?

What was the ref thinking? Ha

Trigger

Shaw spent the last 10 mins warming up, reckon we will see him for second half

Unearthly

Testing out 3 at the back

Hotblack Desiato

Shaw on, Mata off, bit strange that

fs onside

Benefit to the attacker surely

Hococop

Martial, the skills a elite

Unearthly
