No Sinisalo? Can we afford to be down to just Olsen on the bench?

But, but, but, the pre-match drills that we needed two keepers for?!

They look a good team, apart from the defence.
Yes, Erlikson and Casimero look a good centre midfield.

I can see us getting chances against that centre half pairing, so let's hope we aren't wasteful.

They are set up more defensive than they were away to Tottenham; Sabitzer (Midfielder) in for Antony (Forward).

I haven't seen them play in a while..struggling to figure out their midfield set-up. Casemiro and Eriksen sitting with the other three narrow ahead of them?

All tidy footballers but think they will be very vulnerable on the counter today. Hopefully they will be too arrogant to get tight on Douggie.

4-2-3-1

Rashford up front, Sancho, Sabitzer and Goofy behind him, Casemiro and Eriksen as the two in front of the defence.

Luke Shaw at CB should make for some entertainment.

I bet he tries to buckle Ollie early on.  No booking, no VAR check.

Rashford usually not as effective down the middle. Was fearful of what he could do to Young if he was on the left. I'd give our midfield four a chance of at least breaking parity. Buendia will drop in at times too.
