This is the last game we play a strong team. Swansea and WBA will probably be with players who's not had much game time.
 
I am sure they mentioned on MUTV that the number of games don't count now and that they just get so many medals and it is up to the club how they are allocated. Maybe they are keeping Hernandez fit as part of Ronaldo to United deal.:p
 
Was hoping Chich would start today with Kagawa in behind
 
uh oh, Phil Jones special feature.

Just leave him alone dammit

Jones telling the world what most people (besides our coaching staff) seem to know :p he ain't a midfielder.
 
I guess it's a 4-3-3 with Rvp up front.. kinda makes sense 'cause I don't think Chicharito's that great playing the lone striker.. but I still feel for him.. Hope he gets the last 30 min at least , but unlikely.... actually, unlikely that he even comes on..there've been times last few games we've been comfortably in the lead but still haven't brought him on :(
 
He knows about the 'Jones face' :lol:
 
Well, the line up hardly fills me with confidence. Its a big game for some of them though to claim a place.

Phil Jones faces when he attempts a tackle is just hilarious :lol:
 
Jones just said himself he wants to be a defender long term. I hope the club agree..
 
Jones in midfield is depressing to see but hopefully he'll make me eat my words and look like a douche

He just told Sky Sports he don't really have the feet to play in midfield so that don't seem likely.
 
With this line up looks like Jones will be playing behind Clev and Anderson as an actual defensive mid, normally when he partners Carrick he ends up being the more advanced of the two which just doesn't suit him.

Interested to see how he does here because I quite like the idea of him as a DM
 
5 in midfield with RvP up top on his own. Makes sense to me. Especially with Carrick getting the day off. Not sure what people are fussing about?* Good to see the Anderson/Cleverley together again. Always nice and attacking as a combination. Hopefully Jones will make us a bit less open than we usually are when they start.




*Although I am aware that fussing seems to be the raison d'etre of match-day threads

That's the thing, I'm actually quite excited to see how this goes. Anderson and Cleverly together with solid defensive cover could be devastating.

No one is ever happy with the side. :lol: If they perform it will be a nice surprise and we can all eat our words. It would be no fun being a United fan if we were permanently happy.
 
Jones will end up playing behind Robin again.

It's just part of being a fan I'm sure Madrid, Barcelona, Bayern etc... fans are no different.
