I don’t see how we’d be worse off with McT as CDM, either Pereira or Fred box-to-box and Pogba playing inside left right now.
I’d still be starting:
—————McT
——Pereira
———————Pogba
James——————Martial
————Rashford
Big game for us against Southampton. We saw last season how things changed after a couple of defeats. We’ll never know exactly why but perhaps the players just felt they had nothing to play for. Another defeat at Saints - compounded by two weeks’ international break to dwell on it - and who knows how they’ll react? It’s largely the same squad as last season, and I remember understanding Gary Neville’s point when he said something along the lines of there not being a lot he liked about the current United squad as they don’t show enough character when the going gets tough.
I’m not making any rash predictions at all; just developing the OP’s point about the importance of winning the next game.
Have to get back to winning ways
