Who of the squad are good enough to start in a strong United line up capable of challenging for the top spot?
For me, its the following -
.....................DDG
??.........Varane....??........Shaw
..........??.......Fred.......??
Greenwood..Bruno.....??
Maybe harsh on Dalot, McTominay and Sancho, and questions remain over Greenwoods work rate and long term place in the side, but he probably makes it right now.
Anyone got anything different?

Even though I want Ten Hag and a real cultural shift at the club.....I actually can see it being Poch too. This club like to pursue targets we've looked at previously and Poch is thought of very highly at the club.
TBH I'm not going to complain with either. Beggars can't be choosers and I do think Poch would be great for the young players.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
You’d think he would be. Big question marks over his ability to win things still remain
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ten Hag is currently second in Dutch league to PSV. Only a point behind but still.....
I'd be happy with either tbh. Both bring different skills.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Will fully admit I haven't seen much if any of the Eredivisie this season but Ajax have lost the least games (2), scored 59 goals and only conceded 4 in 19 games. Seems pretty impressive.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Donny and Ziyech looked amazing there.

They did in the champions league as well though to be fair. Hard to really judge either in the prem as they haven't played much

Sure but the point stands that players and managers coming from Holland have struggled in the Prem.

A good Poch vs Hag debate would be which league is better ? The Eredvisie or Ligue 1?

for me it would be Ten Hag... the one touch football that ajax play at times is a joy to watch.
people can say but its only the Eredvisie .... but as we have seen from our lads this season... its hard to pass a ball 5 yards

I'd probably have said Ligue 1, however PSG have won the title 7/9 times since the money came in. The dutch league whilst isn't exactly wide open, still is usually fought between two teams, being Ajax and PSV, with the occasional other side cropping up now and again.
I think Poch is a good manager, but I'm not overly impressed with how his side are playing, considering the players they have and their standing in the league. Ajax, however play a great brand of football, something we've been crying out for.
If Poch comes in, I'm just not sure how much will change and if he can get us winning silverware. Ten Hag, also doesn't bring any guarantees of silverware, but you'd think we could potentially see more exciting football.

I think it would take longer for us to become a top team again under Ten Hag but I'm willing to wait for it.
Poch would have a job on his hands but I think he'd get his message across quicker and he also knows the league well.
I don't mind either option at this point. However I'm not ruling out a left field appointment either. I don't think Rangnick should get it FT.

To start
DDG
Varane
Pogba
VDB
Lingard
Ronaldo
Squad players
Dalot
Telles
Matic
Sancho
Cavani
The rest aren't fit to wear the shirt and should be sent to play for the U23's until takers are found.
