Trying to make sense of the graphic
Weiss
Sonne, Worrall, Humphrey’s, Pires
Laurent, Ramsey
Edwards, Flemming, Tchouna
Broja
I mean honestly if you switched two or three players around I wouldn’t mind that team starting in the prem. we have got some great depth at the moment

A lot of guys playing for the chance to get a gig at Old Trafford ,SP’s management skills are going to be put to the test with at least 5 of last season’s regulars hoping to be 1st picks.

My team prediction was spot on bar Humphreys ( which is great to see him back)
Really good team and shows our depth with Roberts and Tuanzebe to come back still

Played 88 minutes for the u21s last night. Got himself a decent goal but looked off it for long periods.

10 min hat trick and then hopefully a quick sale trying to recoup the £15m we splurged on him.

Fair play to Parker for playing a second choice midfield. Wasn’t sure we had enough recognised midfielders to do it.

I don't want to see anyone injured, but I hope he gets at least 45 mins so I can see what he looks like, and if he can play.

We look a frighteningly good team on the counter.
Parker seems to have bought players and set us up to be really effective
