[Machine Elements]

It will be a big win with 4 or 5 goals this time I feel.

 

[Borys]

I trust Istanbul to get something from their remaining games to be honest. They are tough. Unlikely to win but they can hold their ground. They work hard and pushed us quite far from the box. Not confident today at all.

 

[Dante]

I'd love to see Williams at rightback. If he could provide something similar to what Telles does on the other side, I think it could totally revolutionise the way the team plays.

Don't get me wrong: I'm a big fan of AWB. But I think United are crying out for an offensive outlet at RB.

All of our attacking players are most comfortable in central areas. So there's huge scope to use the fullbacks for some width whilst giving the attackers freedom to do what they want in the middle.

I know everyone talks about United needing an expensive RW. But I actually think a less expensive (or possibly even free) RB would fix the same issues by making our existing squad play to their potential.

They've lost 5 of their last 7 away games in Europe.

Even we can't feck this up... surely.

 

[Oldham]

Not to optimistic about this one nor excited. We just been horrible boring and bad so far this season...

 

[Borys]

They Play RB home next round, so counting on them!

 

[Ollie Derbyshire]

We’ll get a good win tonight, even we have to put a 90mins together at some point. 4-0.

 

[Tibs]

Wouldn't be surprised to see TFM and Axel in defence, Donny, Fred, Bruno midfield with Cavani Greenwood Tony up top

 

[OldTrevil]

I'd play

de Gea
AWB Tuanzebe Maguire Telles
Pogba Fred
Bruno
Mason Martial Marcus
​

Go all out, get a comfortable lead and take off Fred, Bruno, Rashy and Awb early

 

[sunama]

We shall lose this game then win the next games against PSG and RBL.

If we get a penalty, we can win.
This goes for pretty much any game we play - need to score a penalty.

 

[Offside]

Just don’t concede early and we’ve got a good chance of winning.

 

[Paul_Scholes18]

No team out yet?

 

[horsechoker]

No team out yet?

In 13 minutes!

 

[Paul_Scholes18]

In 13 minutes!

Normally CL games are out earlier. Most other games have lineups already out.

 

[RedDevil@84]

 

[RedDevil@84]

 

[Sparky Rhiwabon]

De Beek starts!

 

[Hugh Jass]

Good team out. Bruno and VDB start.

 

[RonaldoVII]

Not much sign of rotation there. Can't be complaining about player fatigue when we play most of the players in every game.

 

[Santos J]

like that team

Nothing on the official twitter yet!

 

[Samid]

United XI: De Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Maguire, Telles, van de Beek, Fred, Rashford, Fernandes, Martial, Cavani.

 

[JTW95]

Don't see Rafael winning any Oscars any time soon

 

[FrankDrebin]

If Istanbul are going to play deep then we need to move the ball quicker and more technical in and around the area.
Less touches more quicker transitions and players playing with more awareness.

We've got some smart players in the team capable of playing that way and its about time they utilise it.

 

[Can7onA]

That teams bang on

 

[Ekeke]

Van De Beek, Fred and Fernandes midfield. On paper it could work and might lead to entertaining football. We'll see what happens in practice

 

[sillwuka]

 

[paulscholes18]

An attacking looking side

 

[Dante]

Rashford on the right wing again. Interesting.

 

[Gator Nate]

Ole want GOALS!!!

 

[FrankDrebin]

Why do we need two GK on the bench ?

 

[L1nk]

Kinda surprised he hasn't played Henderson though, we should have made him go on loan for another season

 

[LuisNaniencia]

Exciting looking team, hopefully they don't dissapoint. No Mata on the right is a relief.

 

[Ali Dia]

I know I’ll get stick but I would have started James over Rashford tonight. James must still be riding high after his international exploits. Rashford looks injured and off the pace

 

[Tarrou]

exciting looking side, wasn't really looking forward to this but I am now

 

[Sassy Colin]

Thought about VDB instead of Matic, with Fred holding, but I thought, nahhhh.

 

[Paul_Scholes18]

Come on now United!

 

[Suvvernmanc]

Happy with that. Come on UTD

 

[kouroux]

I think we will win this comfortably

 

[Footy van de Geek]

Attacking side. Should score a few.
