    Start with VVD instead of Yoshi and drop Redmond for Long; play Tadic on the left.

    Forster
    Cedric-VVD-Hoedt-Bertrand
    Lemina-Romeu
    Gabbi-JWP-Tadic
    Long

    Probably going to have to hit them on the counter. Basically, a squad that can (perhaps) move the ball somewhat quickly, plus JWP to perhaps generate a goal from a dead ball (as that's a thing he theoretically provides).

    I go the same but Davis in for JWP & save him to deliver the winning assist from a late free kick with VVD on the end of!

    Bertrand and ummm, VVD if he was fit that's about it I think.

    I think Pogba is still out and I would be surprised if Zlatan was back this soon. Still don't think it will matter too much and we will do very well to get a point.

    I'm sure he will give 100%. He doesn't hate the club or the fans or his team mates. He just acted in the best interests of his career by trying to force the move, the move didn't come off so he will play again. If he sits out/doesn't give his all then the chances of another opportunity to move to a big club may not come again.

    Zlatan is out until next year, Pogba out until at least November.

    Will be ecstatic with a draw.

    But if Stoke can do it, we are more than capable of it too.

    The problem with Fellaini is that he can appear to do little, then suddenly he is in. I wish we had a player who could make something out of nothing.....'cos we are good at nothing. :(

    There's always a few mistakes in Bailly and Jones as Stoke proved.

    This is third time lucky for the rest of my family accompanying me to St Marys - Hull last season, Watford a couple of weeks back & now Manchester United.

    There has to be a good omen in there somewhere doesn't there?
