Manchester United v AFC Bournemouth

If Mings is fully fit then it kind of shows where he is in the pecking order of things.

May be treading carefully with Mings, its only a few days since he was carried off in agony at Wolves.

Ibe starting. No way we get points. Sorry that’s playing a man down.

 

[davygravy]

Mings and Simpson on the bench, Daniels in CB. Lerma on the bench, Stanislas in CM. Both players are out of form and out of position. This is ridiculous.

I would say that Charlie didn't do anything wrong playing in this position at Chelsea.

Ibe starting. No way we get points. Sorry that’s playing a man down.

Yet remember.....his excellent performance at Chelsea that everyone saw apart from you ;-)

Worried about that midfield - barely a tackle between them.

 

[BillMcgarrycherry]

Watford game important......SO IS THIS......they all are!
I don't get Fraser not starting!

 

[borisatha]

Could Rico or Daniels play at right back, Ibe on one wing Stan on the other. Brooks and Surman in the middle.
I doubt it, but you never know.

We all know that have any tacklers in midfield, it’s down to eddie to find the solution

I do, he looked totally knackered and ineffective against Spurs.

@DJ this is what I meant on the other thread!

 

[NWCherries98]

Simpson and Mings should be starting ahead of Daniels at CB. No matter how “not that bad” he performs there. Different rules for different players apparently.

 

[TCherry]

If things go badly today then best save Fraser/Lerma for Watford.
It will be interesting to see how Rico plays today as I have my doubts about his defensive qualities. I hope I'm wrong.

 

[davygravy]

I would have chosen Mings or Simpson ahead of Daniels in the back three, no doubt. But CD DID do well in the same place at Chelsea, so lets see how it goes.

 

[AFCB_Liam]

I get resting Fraser and Lerma for sure. Totally makes no sense playing Daniels though, out of form and looks knackered plus he played only 3 days ago.

 

[Topfarrier]

Ibe starting. No way we get points. Sorry that’s playing a man down.

How dare you....Ibe is a man reborn....prepare to be amazed..

 

[Topfarrier]

I do, he looked totally knackered and ineffective against Spurs.

He also looks fantastic when he comes off the bench against a tiring defence.

 

[YankCherry]

How dare you....Ibe is a man reborn....prepare to be amazed..

I hope so!!!! I’d love to be incorrect.

 

[davygravy]

I hope so!!!! I’d love to be incorrect.

As you were when he played at Chelsea?

Maybe its a reverse psychology thing.....if you say he's terrible, he'll actually play well!

 

[Old Rattle]

Eddie has lost the plot.Daniels an Stan starting. No Lerma or Fraser starting. Why no Mings or Simpson. Gonna get a hiding.

 

[davygravy]

Thinking on.....just *maybe*....a ball playing midfield may help us pick off their good but plodding Matic and Herrera....and allow us to play the balls to trouble their two centre backs, neither of whom will enjoy being attacked by pace.

Maybe.
