Man Utd (A) 14/8 - Build-Up & Match Thread

[Tredman]

Urgh, Fabio then.

 

[C.L.D]

Bueno or RAN at left back please (in order of preference). If our only CB back up gets injured starting in another position then we'll be relying on GON to get creative if we need cover.

Just looked how Bournemouth played at Old Trafford last season (lost 3-0) and it's actually quite similar to our current 4-4-1-1:

-------------------------Travers--------------------------

Smith--------Senesi------------Mepham------------Kelly

Christie--------Cook------------Lerma-----------Anthony

-------------------------Billing--------------------------------

------------------------Solanke------------------------------

That is an AWFUL set of players though for this level. I wouldn't even look at more than 3 of them.

Senesi would be the only one. The rest are poor.

 

[YoungWolf]

I’d take Solanke here tbf. Cook was good before his injuries. But agree, a very poor eleven overall.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Senesi would be the only one. The rest are poor.

If Cook could ever stay fit he's good
You were bigging up Lerma the other week when saying Palace have improved
Billing is an odd player but decent

I like Lerma but Gomes, Lemina and Boubacar are better which is why I didn't include him.

Cunha is much better than Billing and I can see Sasa fulfilling that role too.

I don't see what Solanke excels at. Just a taller Che Adams.

 

[The Bear]

Billing and Solanke are mediocre, but they're still better than anything we put out in those positions last season.

Don't be silly, Cunha is 10 times the player Billing is.

 

[Alan]

Billing is a better player than he is a footballer, IMO. Agricultural but effective.

 

[YoungWolf]

Solanke is more of a ten really as well and I’d rather have Cunha

Footballing ability != ability to play football

 

[WsWolf]

Well, we've always struggled against him. For Huddersfield and Bournemouth.

Didn't we have Moutinho marking him on corners?

Love João but come on.

I heard that Lop made him do that and it's why Joao left...

 

[Boozad]

Senesi would be the only one. The rest are poor.

He was good in The Stand to be fair.

 

[Wolvensam]

Sa
Semedo, Dawson, Kilman, RAN
Nunes, Lemina, Gomes, Hwang
Cunha
Silva

Would be my choice. But wouldn’t be surprised to see Doherty and Neto in place of Semedo and Hwang.

 

[The Bear]

If he starts Doherty up against Rashford then I'm joining the GON hate club.

 

[pavlosmacwolf]

Wolvensams side with sarabia in place of hwang.
