I see there's a new feature - that black-font post "live updates".

Not that new. Been in match threads all season And was used a few seasons ago but had been 'on a break'

 

[Trophy Room]

Shudder to think what’ll happen today. Hoodoo away ground against a team in top form

 

[Needham]

Can people pls not react to team selection or formation at all. We know neither have any bearing on the outcome.

 

[Glaswegian]

Lukaku
Martial Mata Lingard
Pogba Fellaini
Shaw Smalling Bailly Young
deGea​

Love it, De Gea upfront Lukaku in goal, defence and attack swapped around, catch Chelsea completely off guard.

Well well. Looks like we've found ourselves a shudderer.

Couldn't be much worse a performance than most others this season.

Ha ha .... we are positive today!

Long as they don't score an own goal.

 

[Needham]

Ha ha .... we are positive today!

Not necessarily negative. Just one way or the other there seems little correlation between team on paper and what kind of performance we could expect.

 

[Darkhorsez]

Been watching that crazy game at the Bridge when they had 2 sent off and Hernandez scored that goal to win it! Wow - let’s have a repeat please.

 

[Trophy Room]

Well well. Looks like we've found ourselves a shudderer.

Is that even a word?

 

[Sandyman]

Official

Fair enough - on paper this doesn’t bode well for us but doesn’t stop us wishing for the best. Games after the international break often throw up weird stuff. Hope the lads turn up for Utd and the fans today.

Here it is - today's #MUFC team news!

#CHEMUN

 

[.Rossi]

Lindelof

Wish it was Lindeloff

 

[Paul_Scholes18]

All out attack it seems today. Mourinho is doing strange things. Playing ultra defensive teams against West Ham and Newcastle from the start, but attacking Chelsea.

 

[Zoo]

Valencia is in the dog house

 

[2 man midfield]

Mata at number 10 should be good. Hopefully that’s a 4231 anyway, and not some 532 with Matic at centre half.

 

[peridigm]

Why can’t Fred get a game? He’s got to be a better option than Mata.

 

[Wednesday at Stoke]

We should have a proper go at their defense. Rudiger/Luiz is good for a mistake or two.

 

[Drifter]

Thought Sanchez would have got a run out .

 

[Woodzy]

Defense aside that looks exciting

 

[Member 90887]

o_O, Jose's surely going for it.

Hope it sticks!

 

[Mick321]

Nice attacking team, win and he's a hero, if we lose he'll blame the fans saying "they wanted us to attack everyone, this is what happens when we do". Free hit for him.

 

[IAmAWinner]

Not happy with this lineup at all. Needed at least 3 in the middle. This will be a really hard game.

 

[LoneStar]

Jose just went all in

Hope it's going to be a cracker of a match, if our defence holds up well that is.

 

[Canagel]

Good. looks like we are set up to attack. Mata at number 10 is very important because he can help link the midfield and attack.

 

[IrishRedDevil]

Attacking team.

 

[Dyslexic Untied]

Surprisingly attacking

 

[Treble]

Wow, the team looks very attacking on paper with good counter-attacking potential.

Midfield seems weak though and Chelsea will go through it at will, imo. But their defence isn't the strongest, so it will be crucial to be clinical.

 

[duffer]

Morata? 0-3 to Man United.

 

[Damien]

Thought Sanchez would have got a run out .

He only made it to London late on Thursday and didn't travel to Carrington. Had no time with the squad to train with tactics etc compared to the others.

Got 10/11. Thought Mata might start and Herrera might not but wasn't 100% sure.

 

[Darkhorsez]

Jose just went all in

Hope it's going to be a cracker of a match, if our defence holds up well that is.

That’s exactly what I was thinking. I thinking he is gambling on us get a quick start. Let’s go!

 

[MadDogg]

Wow, looks like we're going for the attack. Hopefully the break has enabled Matic to regain his legs. I wonder if Herrera isn't fit enough to start or whether Mourinho thought 'feck it, I'll keep with the attack-attack-attack that came back against Newcastle'?

 

[Damien]

Morata? 0-3 to Man United.

Morata v Lukaku. Clash of the titans.

 

[Wittmann45]

So the team news is getting leaked again?

 

[Member 90887]

Nice attacking team, win and he's a hero, if we lose he'll blame the fans saying "they wanted us to attack everyone, this is what happens when we do". Free hit for him.

Can we keep the fecking negativity out of here. it's the game thread for feck sake, go into his thread and shit on him. he can't win can he ? people always seem to find something to hit him with. maybe he just wanted to give us fans what we wanted ! why would it have to be calculated.

Good lord.

 

[Freak]

Good team. Let's play some good football today please.

 

[Organic Potatoes]

Well hell... This is interesting.
