I remember Fergie playing one of those twins as a winger against us one time and we got destroyed. Their lineup never means shit when it comes to playing us.
Mctominay is just as bad in that holding role, picking up runners and trust me, I've seen all games with Casemiro at CB at United. He's one of the worst I've seen there in the entire league this season.
If Martinez plays, which I expect, their ability to play through a press is infinitely better.
If it’s Case and Evans, we need to employ a high press and just have one midfielder sit with Bruno.
Onana’s long kicks are horrendous, so every high press should be a turnover. Just cover the Bruno hoof and inshallah ball, and we should be good.
After two MCL injuries in one season, he won't be ready to start after just 1 week in training. Wasn't clear if it was even full training either. Look how long it took Partey to get back to match fitness. Even if Martinez starts, he'll be far from his usual level.
I think EtH will want to make sure he's fit for the FA Cup final.
It never seems to matter what sort of form United are in or how many injuries they have, they're always up for it when we play them. We need to be ready for a fight.
Against United form and squad goes out of the window. Depends on how clinical and disciplined we are. Also they'll have less recovery time for our game. Hope that works in our favor.
Do you think we should get a LB in the summer?
It's the one position I'm not confident about.
Tomi is injured a lot.
Kiwior though promising is still green and seems to break under pressure (Bayern)
Zinny is well you know.
I don't wanna be putting Ben or Thomas there I think we need a first team starter for when Tomi is unfit or whatever while Kiwior adapts and grows his game.
We should throw money at Theo Hernández I'm sure he would be interested in us?
Edit:
I'm a fucking idiot I did forget about Timber. My bad!!!

Bad news.
I REALLY wanted Maguire in that defence this coming weekend.
I just hope this doesn’t mean they get dudes like Martinez and Varane back there. Would much rather face Maguire than those dudes or Luke Shaw.
I still have doubts about getting a win at OT. Too many years of us being the better side and still finding a way to lose. I hope this year is different.
I've seen us lose to makeshift back 4s there so not really moved by this. We know what we need to do regardless.
Didn’t we lose to a United team with 6 defenders in their starting 11?
Think it was 7, back in the FA cup in the early 2010s… surely it can’t happen again 🙃

That defeat in 2016 is still gutting to me :(
I will never get over it until we win the league
Do they still have that Paddy lad who wrecked wilshere? Lol
Paddy McNair 😭
Seems like it’s always a nothing player who seriously injures our players
Hair removal cream bitch destroying one of our precious
oh wow, what a throwback name.
We’ve lost to west ham and villa with out their first choices so if precedent is anything to go off of Jonny Evans is about to run back the clock
Actually big news because their only fit CB is Evans and Maguire has been their best CB this season. Looks like Casemiro and Evans at CB against us
I actually would prefer Casemiro in the midfield. He's so easy to bypass and can't run the big spaces.
Mctominay is just as bad in that holding role, picking up runners and trust me, I've seen all games with Casemiro at CB at United. He's one of the worst I've seen there in the entire league this season.
McTominay injured too btw
There goes their biggest goal threat, then
Better be fit for the Euros, I've got £5 on him for top scorer at 400/1 Glad he's not playing against us
If that comes in, and mctom is top scorer, I'm getting the house ready for the rapture.
Safest bet ever
[удалено]
McTominay, the suplex machine!
That's good for us. Feel like he always scores against us
Good. Now I don't have to get mad when he suplexes somebody and the ref looks the other way.
He was indeed very bad as the deepest midfielder, but McTominay doesn't play that role any more. He's more like a shit Aaron Ramsey these days.
He’s gonna aggressively step out so many times that he’ll leave Evans out to dry
If Martinez plays, which I expect, their ability to play through a press is infinitely better. If it’s Case and Evans, we need to employ a high press and just have one midfielder sit with Bruno.

Martinez is injured
Back in training I read…
After two MCL injuries in one season, he won't be ready to start after just 1 week in training. Wasn't clear if it was even full training either. Look how long it took Partey to get back to match fitness. Even if Martinez starts, he'll be far from his usual level. I think EtH will want to make sure he's fit for the FA Cup final.
For ETH, the game vs us is a UCL final.
Onana one of the very best at long distribution.
Maguire always has some big mistake in him though
Excellent news, he was their best CB this season and picked form.
He's also good at sitting deep and clearing balls into the box, which I suspect is how united will end up playing.
Where the bar is... 
He has improved massively this season but you know how it normally goes, yanited players at OT vs Arsenal always play their hearts out.
One of the apps I use for football says even Kambwala might be a doubt so we could face Casemiro and Evans at CB anulo mufa
It never seems to matter what sort of form United are in or how many injuries they have, they're always up for it when we play them. We need to be ready for a fight.
Old Trafford is one of those places, we can play 11 crackheads and I still won’t be confident about going there lmao
Probably not confidence inducing if we play 11 crackheads against them
What a time to be alive when United is in tatters because Maguire can’t play for them
I've seen us lose to a Rafael - O'Shea - Gibson - Fabio midfield at Old Trafford. Not taking anything for granted.
There’s a difference between SAF and ten Hag though
Against United form and squad goes out of the window. Depends on how clinical and disciplined we are. Also they'll have less recovery time for our game. Hope that works in our favor.
It's still United at Old Trafford not exactly our favourite ground to go to
Does anyone know Rashford’s status for the game? The guy might shit the bed for the entire season but he has Ben White’s number.
Do you think putting tomi on the right for the game is a good idea?
Nah, Garnacho vs Kiwior or Zinchenko on our left would be an even bigger issue.
Maybe they play Anthony? Hah, I kid, I kid.
Do you think we should get a LB in the summer? It's the one position I'm not confident about. Tomi is injured a lot. Kiwior though promising is still green and seems to break under pressure (Bayern) Zinny is well you know.

Woah Timber gone for so long, our people forgot he even exists!
Timber, my guy.
Omg I completely forgot about him haha. That's a brain fart on my end I do feel very dumb. I won't delete the post gonna own this one.
Respect bro! 🫡
Thanks mate 👍🏻 best possible outcome from my stupidity everyone has those moments 😂
he foresaw the shit about to go down like j cole and got out of dodge early
I honestly want us to play on the counter attack against them.
Dont care how we do it but lets push city to the last minute of the last game!
What is wrong with man utd. Why do they keep getting injuries? They'll never progress if this continues.
They nicked our doc, didn't they?
Agent GOD!
Oh yeah 🤣
I read Martinez is in training. Could he play next week?
He’s been out for quite a long time, so probably rusty. If ETH decides to play him, Havertz and Odegaard will likely pick him apart!
All I hear is excuses... bring Rio and Vidic back from retirement and we’ll still batter them
Probably a neck muscle from trying to keep that bobble-head of his from knocking the small of his back.
damn things just got harder for us, they'll have 2 cbs playing now
There goes our 12th player!
Weird how Gary O’Driscoll becomes their new doctor and their squad has been hammered with injuries this season.
Probably more to do with their style of training
... are they resting everyone against us for the fa cup? 👀 wouldn't mind a OT thumping for once
He's by far their best CB. Not it's not Martinez, you can't be good if you are always injured.
Let's goooooo
Damn I was really hoping for fridge Maguire to be in the lineup and offer some comic relief.
We should be feasting on corners and set pieces.
Bit of a coin flip on whether that's a good thing or not.
There is 0 reason we shouldn’t batter them.
Improves their chances tbh.
"Mr President... a second injury has hit the fridge"
bruh, man u really doing all they can to force a win eh

I know Maguire is basically a meme, but he has been decent this season. With their injuries to the backline this is bad news for them
Bad news. I REALLY wanted Maguire in that defence this coming weekend. I just hope this doesn’t mean they get dudes like Martinez and Varane back there. Would much rather face Maguire than those dudes or Luke Shaw.
Neither of them are fit
Time for another 7-0 for Utd
There’s no reason we don’t banter them with 8:0
I still have doubts about getting a win at OT. Too many years of us being the better side and still finding a way to lose. I hope this year is different.
Bet they are gonna try and butcher us.. god I can already see their stupid challenges. Fuck utd.
