4231 I reckon. Sinclair the latest in the very long list of last minute, surprise, undisclosed injury victims, then? And Nzog is in the last chance saloon.

Not been watching N'Zog play recently?

Yep. Just the kind of brainless, lazy, yet highly skilled player that Old Trafford either makes or destroys.

I'd hardly say he's in the last chance saloon. He's been our best player of late.

Yeah, bit of a strange comment that one

Weimann being included is rarely good news. What do we think formation wise? Sanchez and delph holding, weimann tucked in on the left, nzogbia right, with gabby and benteke up front? Alternative I presume is 4231

Is Hutton injured as well then? Good to see a bit of defensive cover on the bench again

Think lowton is going to get annihilated against mata and Valencia. Perhaps wiemann has a crucial role in doubling up against them

Glad that you all now rate Nzog and great news if you are right. Since Hutton is in the team and Sinclair is not in the squad, what do you mean?

Brave line up again. I think they'll score at least 3. That said I can see us scoring against their backline. Good to see Hutton back as Bacuna was awful the other week. He'd get murdered against Utd.

I think we're probably going to lose but hopefully we'll go down and make a game of it.

Bloody hell that's what 4-2-3-1?

Looks like that but could go 442 if needs be.

Guess Weimann will be asked to press high on Carrick. He did a similar role well on Gerrard at Anfield a couple of years ago. With Gabby and Nzogbia on either side of Weimann.

Def would have gone with Bacuna in midfield. Delph is going to have to be like an energiser bunny covering with the likes of Sanchez, Nzogbia and Weimann next to him. Not much pace about those three which United will try and exploit.

Could really do without a hammering here.

I do fear an absolute battering. It's sods law that Manure are finally in good form.

he's had two half decent games in 4 years,
and he's now our best player !!

Nice and attacking. I'd rather have Gil in instead of Weimann, but that's becoming a bit of a running theme.

I'm convinced that Sherwood doesn't rate Gil sadly.

Westwood is in the same boat it looks like.

Think Charlie has been ok lately

Weimann is in last chance saloon

Of late.

he had a couple of reasonable performances 'of late' both games where we were playing the best football we have played all season, and the team as a whole were great,

he would be the very last person I would be relying on to make the difference against utd today,
so although you might think he's our best player 'of late' we shall see how it goes

Sod's law. I bought and put Sinclair in my fantasy team yesterday as we play twice this week. So blame me!
