    Same line up as midweek with Young starting as RB if I've heard right. What a prize coward.

    Coward based on what? Have you actually seen the team? I advise you look at the bench before doing so. There's a lad their who is making his ever appearance on the bench.

    Disappointed to see Herrera not start though, thought he would because don't like seeing Carrick and BFS play consecutive games. Though they played well midweek, tbf.

    Happy Lingard remains though and nothing better that seeing the youngsters make their way to the first team squad.

    Anyway lets hope one of the million Moyes-esque crosses from the wings pays off. And those midfielders dont fall asleep on those deckchairs in the middle of the park.

    I'll keep fingers crossed that Schwein, Carrick and Rooney as the AM create something through the middle, I really do. It would show some progress at least.

    Little bit about the young lad selected on the bench.

    Cameron Borthwick-Jackson

    I doubt we will get that tbh, we've got one winger on the pitch and he's playing RB. Mata is hardly going to be whipping in cross after cross and Lingard an AM himself.

    I would have played Herrera though, ahead of Carrick but in a midfield 3 rather than a 2.

    Only 30% of United's passes are played forward. The lowest % of any team in the prem <diva> <whistle>

    My guess is its still more actual forward passes than most teams. What's 30% of 450? Almost 150? Some teams don't even make that many passes in a game <whistle>

    That's a fair point. Couldn't we do those 150 without all the other 300 though <whistle>

    Terrible terrible negative football from Pulis. There's defending in numbers.. and then's there's anti-football. Fcking woeful.

    Now that was a great move but why didn't Rooney just shoot <yikes> Lack of confidence? He had a much better chance of scoring than Mata.
