Id be absolutely amazed if he starts :ROFLMAO: Surely cant have trained until Wednesday at the earliest and probably not sober until yesterday :ROFLMAO:

It is a bit ridiculous. Looking at the opposition, win or lose in the Champions League, the City players should have been left out of this and be able to actually end their season. If we cannot beat those 2 teams without the City players, there is no hope for us.
 
I'd have him next to Hojberg
With Bentancur further forward? I suppose it would work. He was starting to score more goals before his injury.

England tonight - my starting XI prediction

Pickford
Trippier
Maguire
Stones
Shaw
Rice
Henderson
Phillips
Saka
Kane
Eze

Id like to see Mings start, but Stones wasnt as hammered as Jack so imagine he might get a start...

Could also see Shaw at CB and Trent on the right with Trippier at LB
Didn't even know there was a game tonight and I probably won't bother watching it, but I'd be shocked if he starts Eze. Usually when he calls up someone new it's just for show and he doesn't actually use them at all. Is Bellingham not involved?

Whilst I agree... Our Midfield options are pretty empty without them (with this chosen squad)

We've only got:

Rice
Hendo
Maddison

Players who could go in...

Trent

He finished the season injured. He was at the camp earlier in the week but it looks like he's been in Madrid the last couple days to complete his move.

If not Eze then its a Rashford - which I suppose is likely to happen tbh

NGL - forgot about Rashford when I posted that :ROFLMAO:
 
Interesting one

Man United have retained Mason Greenwood this summer.

Maybe he is on his way back - or in line to be sold somewhere of course!
I thought I'd heard he was going to be farmed out on loan abroad for a season. Ultimately he is an asset and it's a business. If he has a good season abroad then they can either sell him or reintegrate him if the mood music allows it.

I’d like to see him back in the Prem,just for opposition fans to crucify him.
Scum.

Have said it before, it won’t just be opposition fans who crucify him. There are one or two new chants already being trotted out by the United faithful which make their opinion of Greenwood very, very clear.

Not a bad start to the game from TAA , the ball for the first was sublime and stunning strike for the second

And Andros Townsend - what a 🛎️ end
