Martial can be amazing but very inconsistent. I'd take Isak or Wilson over him and Weghorst any day of the week. What about de Gea? Seems to be making a handful of mistakes every season now. That Everton goal at home in the FA Cup was lifting! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has a mistake in him as all keepers do but he also saves us plenty of points on a regular basis with incredible saves and his distribution has improvely tenfold since Ten Hag came in. I think he far better than Pope personally but wouldn't see that as a slight against Pope. He's one of our best ever players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

St1pe Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 11 minutes ago, Froggy said: If we're both at full strength then Isak for sure. Maybe Trippier but Dalot has come on leaps and bounds and even AWB is playing brilliant. I really like Botman and Guimaraes but who would they replace? Botman for Martinez possibly. Guimaraes for Eriksen? Casemiro and Fernandes are untouchable in the middle of the park. Maybe Lascelles ahead of Antony on the right wing. Actually laughed out loud at Lascelles for Antony On a serious note Trippier, Botman, Bruno all get in. I’d take Bruno over Eriksen. There’s a case to be made for Pope over De Gea. Man U are definitely favourites with the stronger squad but our team as a collective is better than it’s even been. I don’t think there’s such a massive gap compared to the last time we met in a final. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowlingcrofty Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 If I had to pick a combined side I’d probably go: Pope, Trippier, Varane, Botman, Shaw, Bruno G, Casemiro, Eriksen, Bruno F, Isak, Rashford. Manager: Howe Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

54 Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 Best combined Man United vs Newcastle XI, i'd probably go: Pope: Trippier, Schar, Botman, Burn: Bruno G, Longstaff, Joelinton: ASM, Isak, Miggy Think thats about fair, right? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The notion of Botman and Pope not making that joint XI is insane like. Absolutely crackers in the case of Botman - he’s comfortably superior to Martinez. I can’t imagine a neutral swapping Martinez for Botman Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Icarus Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 (edited) It's this imo. No way is Botman in over Schär. 433 Pope Trippier Schär Martinez Shaw Guimaraes Casemiro Fernandes Almiron Wilson Rashford With Joelinton extremely unlucky to miss out. Heart over head I have him in over the rat. Edited February 2, 2023 by Kid Icarus Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superior Acuña Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 (edited) I thought De Gea had been shit for years now, a glaring weak link. Not saying I'm right - shows how little you know just catching bits here and there. Would have to think our back 5 as a whole is better than theirs, with one or two exceptions - just looking at their record.

Man Utd fans are the most entitled bunch of little bellends ever. They still haven't wrapped their heads around that they are no longer regular title challengers. They think it's all going to click back into the 90s again. It won't. It's over. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
