We're at home to west ham, and we're playing our strongest possible lineup. Says it all really.

Is Ole going to keep playing an injured Rashford until he breaks again?

Has he not learnt anything from breaking his back?

Ridiculous from Ole. Selfish.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I don’t think it’s selfish but not sure it’s wise. Rashford has appeared in all but one game in a congested season. Is there really any need for that?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
It's not the first time this has happened

And bruno is another story too

Ole's thinking is just too small time, for someone who goes on about long term planning he is happy to run players in to the ground and play them through injury
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Imagine being this upset before a balls even kicked ffs😂
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Oh it's the guy who thinks we need his permission before we criticise Ole
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No permission required. You just look like a wet wipe considering the game hasn't even started yet. Give your head a bit of a wobble lad.

West Ham are 5th in the PL

6 points behind us, while still having a game in hand on us

this is no time to be resting players

I wish I had the same access to the playing staff's medical data as some people here, then I'd be able to judge whether it's a risk or not playing Rashford today.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

hasn't it already been determined that rashford needs shoulder surgery?

Shut up. Lurker and Co know best.

Ole is here for years to come. Are you going to continue with this every week?

So we can't question Ole's team selection?

This isn't about winning or losing this game, it's about protecting the players and being sensible.

I don't expect you to understand considering any criticism of Ole irks you so much

You all would be crying and whinging if Rashford was on the bench and James/Greenwood/Amad had shockers... "why didn't Ole play Rahsford"... wah wah... stupid PE teacher is too cautious... wah wah, diddums"

I couldn't be arse3 to type that but in a nutshell👏

I think fans would understand not starting Rashford.

I've seen rumours of that. But I understand it was a minor ankle injury that kept him out of the Milan game and to which the posters objecting to him being rushed back are referring.

Im sure Ole knew best and the club did too when last season Rashford suffered a double stress fracture of his back

Well if Ole had managed his players well would we be in this mess?

It can't be denied that he has not rotated his key players well enough.

Im not expecting much from this game, fortunately other results have gone our way

Lindelof against West Ham is an absolute recipe for disaster.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Agreed. Lindelof rarely lets us down against the bigger sides but Bailly should be playing these games.

Glad Rashford is back but was there any need to start him? We’ve ran him into the ground 2 seasons in a row.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ole doesn’t take risks. His tactics require individual brilliance from either Rashford or Bruno. Without them, we can play for 5 hours straight and won’t score a goal.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
imagine depending on the talents of your own players.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Not when they’re injured or just coming back from injury, and then you risk losing them for even longer.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
so what are you saying here... do you even know? (apart from OleOut)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
What I’m saying is if Ole wanted a personal assistant to wipe his a$$, you’d be the first in line and insist on using your hand and nothing else. That’s how blinkered you are.

We really need a match thread where all the feckwits are banned and the normal people can actually discuss the match like adults

Well if Ole had managed his players well would we be in this mess?
---------------------
Ole, the first manager in history to have injured players. ffs

No

See Tottenham and Arsenal threads for reasons why

Rashford is likely to be starting because of injuries to Martial and Cavani.

Don't think their injuries is down to a lack of rotation.

That's kind of dodging the point?

It doesn't feel like enough care has gone in to ensure players stay out of the "red zone"

......

If you said this in any pub with United fans in it you would get a good kicking and rightly so.

Rashford is starting because Martial and Cavani are injured.... Were Martial and Cavani in "the red zone"?

Not true. For one, He has not really been in form. 2. We have been calling for a rest for him for a while.

All this is justification for a poor decision where if it backfires, he will get blamed. And rightly so.
