    Regardless of what we’ve done this season, United are throwing a game to spite Liverpool which in turn will guarantee their local rivals the title tonight whilst they can still mathematically win it. It is insanely small time and shows exactly where their club and fanbase is right now.

    A little club now in Manchester which is clearly blue.

    3 games in 5 days is ridiculous. The manager is well within his rights to rotate his squad.

    Although, I imagine this thread is just you trying to start another argument.

    We will have had FOUR games in 8 days so of course there is some rotation. Even then lets just look at the players

    DDG - 438 games for United / 45 Caps for Spaid
    Williams - 48 Games for United / 5 England Youth Caps
    Baiily - 102 Games for United / 37 Ivory Coast Caps
    Axel - 33 United games (including playing against PSG and keeping Neymar and Mbabbe quiet) / 11 England Youth caps
    Telles - 21 United games / 4 caps for Brazil
    Matic - 154 United games / 48 Caps for Serbia
    VdB - 33 United Games (175 for Ajax) / 19 Holland Caps
    Mata - 270 United Games / 41 caps for Spain
    Greenwood - 102 United games / 1 England Senior cap / 16 youth caps

    Now sure Diallo lacks experience, 10 United games, 5 for Atlanta. He has a cap for Ivory coast though and he could cost almost £38mill

    And Elanga is one of the most promising players in United's youth setup who won the Jimmy Murphy Young Player of the year award last season and has been on the bench for the last few games and has been training with the 1st team for most of the season.

    And the bench is pretty strong if the game needs to be turned around. Ideally, it would be a first-string team but you can't play the same players for so many games in such a short turn around.

    It wasn't Ole's or the player's fault though. Why should they be punished for some idiotic fans or more specifically because of the likes of MUST and Gary Neville intentionally working some fans into a frenzy with incendiary language (and in MUST case often lies and misrepresentation)

    I would hate for Bradford City to ever throw a game so Leeds, Halifax, Huddersfield could win the title.

    Small time mate and. certainly when you can win the league.

    When I started replying I wasn't sure if he was being misinformed or being a total troll. And by the time it was more clear I had already spent time writing it so thought I may as well post showing how clueless he is

    He was always going to come off. He played 90mins on Thursday and 65 on Sunday. And while I suspect he wouldn't start on Thursday they won't want to run him into the ground and not be available to come on against Liverpool
