Fair to say West Brom haven’t had the new manager bounce they hoped for when Big Sam came in the defence is still leaking goals for fun.
Team news Pogba is out and Bailly is a doubt not expected to be back from his latest injury.
We know what to expect they’ll defend in numbers sit deep and try to break and capitalise on set piece chances which is exactly what we hate so our attacking players will need to be at their best and ruthlessly punish any mistakes. Ex Utd keeper Sam Johnstone in the sticks has proven a fantastic shot stopped so we need to be clinical.
In terms of selection the big talking point amongst fans has been the form of our keeper and is this now the time to drop him? I think we should but I don’t think Ole will. Back 4 with Bailly unfit kind of picks itself with Pogba out I think he goes Fred & McT in midfield maybe he gives VDB a go in that slightly deeper role but his performances haven’t exactly forced Ole to pick him.
Predicted XI
DDG
AWB Lindelof Maguire Shaw
McTominay Fred
Greenwood Bruno Rashford
Cavani
Utd need the points not really to put pressure on City but to keep/build the gap between us and the chasers for top 4.
