United (H) - Sun 2nd Oct, 14:00 | Pre-Match Thread

[bluemc1]

We are way past making statements, the only one that really matters now is the CL. We batter them regularly when it matters, have four of the last five premier league trophies, and by any measure are the most successful domestic team since 2013 when they last won anything of importance. Win, lose or draw nothing changes that.

My weekend changes

As Graeme Souness once replied when a reporter queried his line-up (when he was a manager) :

"Line-ups don't win games. Players do."

If we're all up for it, we'll be OK. O Ye of little faith.

In which case I’d kinda like to see Haaland in goal and big Ederson up front ;-)

That might explain his management career I suppose!

Ederson
Walker, Akanji, Stones, Cancelo
Rodri
De Bruyne, Bernardo
Foden, Haaland, Grealish

Don't think you will be a million miles off with that selection

I feel this will be a tougher game than many are expecting, they are playing with confidence and seem to have tightened up at the back. Their kick and rush style can cause our backline problems, and we need to be switched on from the off.

I still believe we have enough to get a comfortable win as long as we show up and Pep doesnt have a brain fart.

To paraphase:

It is tougher than people think, but we will win comfortably, and if not it is peps fault-;)

Dias?

Unfortunately I can't make this game and have transferred ny ticket to my son but so far he hasn't had an email with his mobile ticket link. How long does it normally take it to come through? i have had my email confirming the transfer.

Tell him to check his spam incase its gone there, they normally go through straight away, as well sounds daft have you definitely typed the correct email address

We've got a couple of lads dancing with Southgate and Martinez though, they think nothing of throwing our boys out there for 180 minutes, " just to get used to playing with their countrymen."

For me the perfect choice of team.

 

[applecentral]

Laporte should be back for this i would think? And Walker as well? I wonder if Pep is tempted to through them straight back in?

Ederson
Walker
Dias
Laporte
Cancelo
Rodri
De Bruyne
Bernardo Silva
Foden
Grealish
Haaland

For me the perfect choice of team.

I think Eddy may well be able to own his own in an outfield position.
