Hour before the game starts. So 25 more minutes

I'm not talking about the line up. I mean actually seeing the players come off the bus into the stadium

 

[NJM78]

I hope Rashford is not starting, would like to see Lingard and Martial come in.

 

[Walters_19_MuFc]

Young coming in would provide more of an attacking threat at full back, however, it be nice to see us use the same back four consecutively.

 

[lex talionis]

Didn't get my XI in on time.

De Gea
Darmian Bailly Lindelof Shaw
Fred Pereira Pogba
Lingard Lukaku Sanchez

 

[Random Task]

Surely we would have known the squad by now or have they not arrived yet?

I honestly don't know. I haven't heard anything about Sanchez being injured or unavailable, only that he hasn't travelled with the squad. He could have used other means of getting to Brighton for all we know.

 

[JinnerJamie]

Didn’t this happen a few times last season were players didn’t travel with the squad but ended up playing?

 

[ChaddyP]

Yeh agreed. Just got to wait and see. I'm more concerned about my fantasy league than if Manchester United can cope without him

 

[Magnus]

Team I'd like to see (feck all chance it will happen though)
Ddg
Young Bailly Lindelöf Shaw
Herrera Fred Pogba
Rashford Lukaku Martial

Sanchez mother has taken ill right?

 

[M Bison]

I hope he changes the whole right hand side, Darmian and Mata weren't up to it vs Leicester and we need more

 

[Damien]

Didn’t this happen a few times last season were players didn’t travel with the squad but ended up playing?

I only really remember Rashford.

 

[Cassidy]

I only really remember Rashford.

I think Martial too

 

[Marcelinho87]

Yes, it is a tactic used to alter the oppos team usually.

 

[Pexbo]

I hope Rashford is not starting, would like to see Lingard and Martial come in.

I want to see Rashford get as many minutes as possible this season. If Sanchez is out it's the perfect time to start him. His professionalism and work rate puts him way ahead in the queue than Martial for me.

The first of the leaked XI's.

Leaked XI
The suggestion is United have made two changes. The unconfirmed XI is:

De Gea, Young, Lindelof, Bailly, Shaw, Pereira, Fred, Pogba, Mata, Rashford, Lukaku.

That is only rumour at this stage and previous leaked XIs have featured an error or errors.

Fingers crossed. Been ages since I got two starting XI's correct in a row.

Sanchez injured, according to Jose Mourinho. Young and Lukaku back in after World Cup exertions. #MUFC

Why Rashford and not Martial?

All the talk of a fresh summer etc, injured after one game.

 

[Damien]

Why Rashford and not Martial?

Martial hasn't had enough game time. With him going home for his baby, his pre-season was reset. Rashford will be fitter.

 

[Marcelinho87]

Because:

I want to see Rashford get as many minutes as possible this season. If Sanchez is out it's the perfect time to start him. His professionalism and work rate puts him way ahead in the queue than Martial for me.

 

[Rajma]

feck our luck with injuries

 

[OldSchoolManc]

Is it all ex Liverpool in the commentary again? Does my head in with the bias.

 

[Seven Seas Sardines]

Fecking Mata in an away game? Right side to be overrun once more, while Brighton can double down on Rashford..

 

[scorgasm]

 

[villain]

Martial starts!

 

[el3mel]

Martial, now that's a surprise.

 

[FootyGirl88]

Pereira starting again ❤

 

[Damien]

Ah feck.

 

[Walters_19_MuFc]

Three changes

Young in for Darmian
Martial in for Sanchez
Lukaku in for Rashford

 

[haram]

Nice line up. Lets gooooo!

 

[BusbyMalone]

Really surprised by Martial starting.

 

[Raw]

Go on Martial lad

changes from the opening day win over Leicester - what do we think, #MUFC fans? #BHAMUN

 

[Charlie Foley]

9/11 but happy to see Mata and Martial start

 

[SuperiorXI]

Good team

 

[syrian_scholes]

Rashford was shite last week, glad official line up has Martial, let the two rotate and then get the one on form playing.

 

[Norris]

Great team. As good as it can be minus Sanchez.

 

[jungledrums]

Tony!

 

[el3mel]

Pretty sure that's our best possible lineup without Sanchez except for Lingard and Matic. Hopefully we prove it on the pitch.

 

[Leftback99]

Baffling how Mata keeps his place for a tough away game. Hopefully Martial takes his chance with a good performance.
