He just came back from injury.

Do you guys expect him to play 2 full games in the space of a few days.

Rather rest Martial in a league cup game and start him in one where it actually has significance.

Well how do you expect him to gain fitness back if he isn't even able to come off the bench and get minutes on the pitch? Mourinho said last Wednesday he was fit and training but we still haven't seen him. Surely yesterday would of been ideal for him to get some minutes, as you said the PL games has more significance so you ideally want him fitter for those games rather than starting unfit.

See who drawing - United or City?
United at home to Burnley and City away to West Brom.

A draw for both sides isn't out of the question really...

United

3rd game in 6 days for a lot of the players whereas Burnley will put 10 men behind the ball, has 0-0 written all over it

Very true!

Although I think Martial will probably come back in which could make a difference. Also Mata didn't play 90 minutes v Chelsea so he will probably come back into the starting XI. I think Rooney will probably start.

Nah I reckon you'll beat them.
Burnley are impressive - especially at home - but you have the sheer physicality to beat them.

We struggled massively because we can't score from set pieces and Arsenal only got a controversial winner in the last minute.

They're good and they're organised but your quality should overcome them, especially at Old Trafford.

Depends what team Jose goes with. No need to put out a tired team when we have Martial and Mkhi who are fresh. Rooney should be available, and Lingard should still be pretty fresh. You could easily put out an entirely fresh front line if Jose wished.

Oh ****, it's ****ing Kevmeister.

Thoughts on Mourinho and Pogba.

Thought more appropriate to reply here than that derby thread.

Mourinho seems puzzled and confused at the moment. Tactically great against Liverpool but completely at sea at Chelsea. He should drop Mike Smalling - he's a liability. I realise this is impossible now due to Bailly's injury and participation in AFCON in January. If we have funds a CB or two should be the priority.

Pogba? The team should be built around him; he's a great player, he proved that at Juve. However at the moment, he's being dropped into a system that doesn't suit him all the time. I think he'll come good.

Mkhi is not being given enough game time to show his worth....

Finally I think he will give Mkhitaryan half hour tomorrow if the game is secured and start him next week in the Europa League. Wouldn't mind Rashford given a break, feel he's not been as effective lately.

Hopeful words from Koeman re: bringing Rooney back to Goodison Park and with the investment of Moshiri makes it a possibility yet they forked out £28m for Lukaku under Kenwright

P.S nice to see you pop in @Kevmeister
