Wow just imagine the players being able to hear of see the way people react on here during a game, it would be like WoolwichTV on speed!

Shame they can't flash up posts from here during the game.

Although I can imagine it would take a turn for the "custard-y" if we knew the players could see.
 
No clue what to expect from this game, but I feel like Jose will look to have a really strong base and let the front 3 do most of the damage. I oddly think Dele being out makes Jose's decision a bit easier when it comes to formation and the XI.

If GLC is fit...

------------Lloris-------
Aurier--Toby--Davinson---Davies
---GLC--Winks--NDombele
Sonny----Kane----Bergwijn

If no GLC

------------Lloris-------
Aurier--Toby--DVS--Davies
--Sissoko---Winks---Ndombele
Sonny----Kane----Bergwijn

Both feel like really strong teams, and we should go in pretty confident.
 
scary to think of a reasonably fit Man U team running at our plucky misfits!
Us with a Jose ’plan’ being the only thing between us and a kicking!

That is a complex way of saying you would play Sissoko if GLC is out!

I'm not Bergwijn's biggest fan
And I prefer Son from the left
So that right-sided forward slot might be Lamela or Moura or even Mr Sissoko himself, if Aurier needs babysitting, i.e.

------------Lloris-------
Aurier--Toby--DVS--Davies
--GLC---Winks---Ndombele
Sissoko----Kane----Sonny

Could definitely happen with Sissoko allowing GLC to push on when he wants. Lamela gives that graft also from the right.

One name I’m not seeing much of (and not sure if he is injured and I’ve missed it) is Dier. Was starting a lot of football pre lockdown.
 
I would play:

------------------Lloris--------------------

--Foyth----Toby-----Dier------Jan-----

----------Sissoko-------GLC-------------

---Son-------Ndombele------Bergwijn--

-----------------Kane---------------------

but I think Jose will go with Aurier at RB, Davies at LB and probably Winks rather than Ndombele with GLC further forward
 
I do despair what a bloody mess our squad is!

With the exception of Kane as striker, and Son as AML, I genuinely don’t think anyone else is a guaranteed starter (for reasons other than we have nothing better).

Everyone else seems to be plagued by any combination of being:-
Long term off form or not performing
Past their best
Not ready yet
Not good enough
Too erratic
Always injured
Doesn’t quite fit the system/balance

Add to that we don’t know what our best formation is, and I think it’s a right muddle!
 
That "Don't" column is bringing out the pedant in me.

Don't Avoid Spitting or Nose Clearing
Don't Don't shake hands
Don't Avoid offensive or abusive language (how is this covid related?)
Don't Avoid mass confrontations....
Quite. I'll bet (/hope) it was originally done properly but some committee decided that having a line like "Use offensive or abusive language" would be confusing, despite the cross icon and a clear "DON'T" above it.

Presumably due to the lack of crowd noise, anyone shouting a sweary is now more likely to get picked up by pitch-side mics.
