Then I thought our own forwards would be good for two goals, perhaps a winner in the last 15-20 mins as their defence tires.

It could so easily have been Charlie correct, if not for DDG's heroics. And truthfully it might have been higher scoring if not for Fabianski's heroics at the other end too. Not to mention the clear penalties that were not awarded - one for West Ham and two for us.

Round two against the hammers early hours of Thurs... that won't be so easy to predict - no idea who will be rested... Possibly Fernandes and Ronaldo both on the bench. Sancho and Van De Beek to start? Maybe Cavani too if he is fit again, otherwise Martial may start. Rashford also seems to be back in training, maybe a cameo too? The only one reasonably confirmed to start will be Lingard... :D

Henderson/Heaton
Dalot, Bailly, Lindelof, Shaw/Telles
Matic, Van De Beek
Sancho, Mata, Lingard
Martial

Hoping to see Elanga come on at some point.

West Ham might rest Rice and Soucek too, but Antonio will be back.

Man Utd 2 : 2 West Ham

Of course, I'm hoping my prediction is wrong and we win in 90mins :D

Just heard that the knucklehead is going to send in a suicide squad of new mixed with some oldies including his 2 useless god sons to play against West Ham tonight in the Carabao Cup hoping to win it...to him tis is a mickey mouse cup he can afford to lose where he can use it instead to experiment with his old, new n out-of-form players who haven got any or much game time yet so far...thinking that he will hv no problem winning the more impt ones like the Premier League Title, the European Cup or the FA Cup...little does he realise that such a strong team he put up against them last sunday with CR7 in it just abt managed to win n overcome them

had CR7 played they shd hv at least scored a goal, not sure why the knucklehead didn't play him :(...as they say he thinks this is a Mickey mouse cup they can do without ..sigh...think they will end up trophyless again tis year even with CR7 with this knucklehead in charge not knowing how to win matches n keep losing so many vital matches :(

To prove that OGS is completely incompetent, United buys world class players like Sancho and Varane and they are now playing like amateurs in a school soccer field on weekends.

Infant Mgr simply DOES NOT have the aptitude and attitude to get the best out of our players and definitely zero ability to bring them to the next level..... if any, he demotivates and degrades them down several levels like what he has done to Donny Van De Beek, Daniels James and now Sancho.

Painful to watch world class players being transformed into no class no names.

If not for CR7 and his goals, we would be lost in mid table of EPL.

When will the bleeding stop ????

Pool & City had young guns that were fabulous and United had old canons that couldn't do shit and were impotent..... all because Infant Manager OGS is so fvcking clueless and as i have said before is operating way above his pay grade.

Hopefully Woodward will bring the Infant Mgr along with him when he leaves the club.....

Fully agreed. OGS is too infant.

Buying expensive players need time to gel and blend. Each player brought in need time to play according to infancy OGS system

I am not sure OGS has the luxury of time.

No way he can coach CR7 and Paul Pogba.
