Manchester United @ManUtd 6m6 minutes ago
United XI: De Gea, Darmian, Jones, Blind, Shaw, Carrick, Schweinsteiger, Mata, Memphis, Young, Rooney #MUtour
That looks like it will be the team vs Spurs then.
Edit: Don't really like saying that as a lot can happen injury wise etc but that is a solid team. Not a fan of Blind at CB and no Schneidi :(

I always had a feeling LVG will put one of our midfielders at CB but I thought it wud be Carrick.
Poor Schneiderlin. Will be tough for him to make a place in starting 11. Same for Herrera.
Pedro instead of Young will automatically make our team much stronger. Young is the only weak link now.
LVG should play 4 3 3 with Mata in midfield and young n Depay wide.

That's former Real Madrid player Adebayor to you.
Why is Schwein starting the last game now? Was Sneid that bad?
After those comments LvG made about Schwein too
Most confusing

He wasn't bad. He and Carrick won't work together in the midfield. Schweini and Carrick/ Schneiderlin will be more balanced.
Think Schweinsteiger is starting today as he didn't get any minutes at all in the previous game vs Barca.
Carrick is a cert starter for LVG.

By Mangoverboard Go To PostPay them whatever the fuck they want.Wait, weren't you against buying Sterling?
By Mangoverboard Go To PostPay them whatever the fuck they want.Mango, you better let us have Stones. Or else...
By Hitch Go To PostWait, weren't you against buying Sterling?
Yes. But Stones is a solid defender and exactly what we need.
I cant imagine anything more cuntish that trying to take a selfie with a footballer signing autographs, leaning over 3 people and thinkign thats any way to live.

Sorry, I was against paying that money for Sterling. Needed to be 15-20 million less. But our need for Stones is more pressing imo so I don't mind spending 30ish million on him.
By Slizz Go To PostI think Spurs get worked by MLS All-Stars tonight, it's like 75% foreign playerslolspurs
Not even Depay can force Young to the bench.
ffs
Young is a good guy and he did well, but not good enough for what United want.
