    No Hojlund vs No Palhinha

    Who will be missed the most?

    Well I say we play Amad as the CF or false 9.

    We won't of course. We'll put Rashford through the middle, Garnacho will go back to the left and Antony on the right. It'll be **** and we'll make hard work of it.

    Personally I'd just go with

    ----------------Onana
    Dalot-----Varane---Maguire---Shaw
    --------------- Mainoo
    -------Bruno------------Erikson
    Garnacho-----Amad-----Rashford

    Basically a 4-3-3 which can become a 4-2-3-1.

    None of that will happen. Casemiro and Antony will start.

    Anyway enjoy, I predict another 8-0 home win <diva>

    Personally think Casemiro should start ahead of Eriksen. And will.

    Is it possible McTominay could start No.9 ahead of Amad?

    Probs Rashford though, yes.

    Yeh Casemiro is the sensible choice. I think every now and again we should try Eriksen in the more winnable home games.

    McTominay to come on 2nd half imo to replace Casemiro.

    See I'd personally have Eriksen sub in for Casemiro and McTominay be a last half hour further forward 'plan B' .
    He's very effective doing that.

    Full backs are the main concern today with Shaw out.

    Ten Hag really knows how to make things hard ffs.

    He fck things up with his poncing around.

    If I'm Amad I'm thinking fck this **** I want to go somewhere where I might get a game before the ball boy.

    What a stupid goal to concede! They all stood as Fulham got to the ball from the corner rebound with no challenge. Just sluggish defending!

    The commentator on what I'm watching just said 'United only have Antony on the bench as an attacker'. Had to check Amad was there, and he is.

    Good knowledge.

    Anyway, now one down, great.

    I don't know who Forson is tbh, but he did **** all to show me how he got in that 1st eleven today with Amad, and even Antony, sat on the bench.

    And Rashford is having one of his customary days off.

    Yeah mate, we get it. You really, really, really object to being asked to play as striker.

    The manager is a ****ing twat. Amad, the best player in the championship last season and looked more of a threat in his last game than Antony, and Forson gets picked ahead of him

    I'm sick of the ****ing fraud, **** off back to Holland and take Rashford with him

    Eriksen has given pretty much every ball he's had straight to the opposition since he came on.

    Garbage.

    Onana watches another one in.

    Someone needs to explain that he actually is supposed to attempt the odd save occasionally.

    I didn't listen to the game.

    But I have to say, TH is found wanting whenever he doesn't have his favoured starting 11.

    He should be able to get results or win ugly when players are out. But for a year, every time he loses players the team turns out **** performances and poor results.

    Is he good enough to manage the club? I have my doubts.

    This is where he lacks ideas.

    Hojlund is a big No.9 who has been scoring goals, Rashford has been playing relatively well on the left. (He misses Shaw, who carries him, but that's a different story)

    Instead of trying out McTom as a 9 to try to replicate Hojlund, he puts Rashford there in the full knowledge he will stink the place out.

    And guess what, he did.

    His rabbit out of the hat is to play someone no one has heard of in Rashford's place, and that also failed as he did **** all.

    Give Antony a run there. How's that for an idea? Or Amad.

    And the goalkeeper he bought and persists with is ****ing garbage and continually costs us points.

    A lot on Ten Hag, no doubt. He's on trial.

    If PSG are genuinely interested in Rashford then he has to go. He has to **** off out of the club.

    His time is over.

    Only just seen the highlights.

    What the fck was the setup today... everyone play where you want?

    Midfield looked non existent. One pass and Fulham straight into our back 4. That was time and again including both goals.

    There still appears to be no identity to our play. It's why when players are injured and others come in, we have no fcking clue what to do.

    As though it isn’t bad enough being dominated at home by Fulham. Fulham ffs!! Even the youth team should be able to perform against Fulham in a cup game.

    But when have we scored a 90th minute equalizer at OT and still end up losing the game? I honestly can’t remember. It really demonstrates the naivety that goes into our game preparation and game management. Completely unprofessional!

    I actually hope that we miss out on champions league for next season. It will do us a world of good to be able to see exactly where the club is come the end of the season without false semblance of success that comes from ending in 4th place.
