Football What’s our best XI now Bruno has arrived?

De Gea
Wan Bissaka - Maguire - Lindelof - Williams
Fred - The Scottish Player - Pogba
Bruno
Rashford - Martial



Doesn’t seem to have much balance but I couldn’t see James starting before any of the others mentioned.

Was tempted to over The Scottish Player but realistically he’s only got one season left in him.

Forgot about Matic

Been excellent since he’s come back into the side.

Hope they’re not thinking of playing Bruno on the right wing...

Wan Bis. Maguire. Shaw. Williams.

McTom. Fred. Matic.

Pogba. Bruno.

Rashford.

Lindelhof is a jinx, Martial is shite. Pogba is a @#%&! but has game on his day.

De Gea can stick to snogging City players in the tunnel and being a goth.

Not the worst 11 or formation
A diamond midfield could work well however I'm not sure it would work well with Wan Bissaka as you need your full backs to provide the attacking width

Would probably play Matic ahead of The Scottish Player in that holding position
The Scottish Player is really a box to box midfielder so should compete with Fred for that role

Rather one dimensional to think we have one XI it all depends on who we are playing and where and how do they play. You'd like to hope the coaching team have gone beyond a Level 1 badge.

If we are playing a side who will have more possession and attack us then James maybe has a role but if we're at home against a side that defends deep he doesn't. We probably don't need a 4-2-3-1 for those games but a more fluid 4-3-3. In a 4-2-3-1 we will have fewer chances so I'd pick Greenwood above Martial or play Rashford up top.

4-2-3-1
De Gea, AWB, Maguire, Lindelof, Williams , Fred, The Scottish Player, Fernandes, Pogba, Rashford, Greenwood.

To accommodate James stick Rashford at 9.

4-3-3
Same back 5 Fred, The Scottish Player Pogba Rashford Martial/Greenwood Fernandes

I bet you don't even have a laminated list.

de gea

wan b - tuanzebe* - maguire - shaw/williams

mctog - fred - matic

bruno

greenwood - rashford

we really lack an attacking threat down the right with wan b at fullback, though. happy to see ronaldo dalot in whilst mctog is injured.... or james (further up), if we are playing someone shit.

pogba can £#%&! off. but, if he plays, I would not allow him in our half.


* assumes we don't recall smalling, our best defender

That. Maybe Dalot at right back.

The 3/5 at the back system has worked better for us imho as it has meant we have not been as overloaded (granted only Tranmere and City) but i d keep with it to see how it develops with these players. Drop the Zonal marking straight away as well as the playing out from the back!!

Pogba can GTFO - not interested how good he thinks he is. Not even bench for me.

I Would want us to be more mobile on the flanks and given our limitations I think Dalot and James are the only real options who will also help make the back 3 into a 5 when needed.

So A 3-4-1-2 formation for me... (in the short term anyway when Rashford is back).

De Gea
AWB - Maguire - Williams
Dalot - Fred - The Scottish Player - James
Bruno
Rashford - Martial
