  1. Can’t say I’ve been impressed by Mainoo when he played but buzzing he starts today. Hopefully he proves a lot of people like myself wrong

    **Substitutes: Bayindir, Heaven, Maguire, Malacia, Casemiro, J. Fletcher, T. Fletcher, Lacey, Zirkzee.**

    Interim head coach Darren Fletcher takes charge of his second United game this afternoon, and has named his side for our Emirates FA Cup third-round meeting against Brighton at Old Trafford.

    **The Scotsman makes three changes from our last outing against Burnley in the Premier League, with Casemiro and Ayden Heaven dropping to the bench. Luke Shaw is not included in today’s matchday squad.**

    **They are replaced by Mason Mount, Leny Yoro and Kobbie Mainoo, the latter making his second start in all competitions this season.**

  3. I wonder if it’s Mount or Bruno on the right. Though I’m sure they’ll be swapping quite a lot.

    As I hoped, Shaw and Casemiro rested, they really needed it, but now I’m worried why isn’t even Shaw on the bench?

  5. Would have loved a Lacey start but i can understand getting Mount upto speed as well. Pretty sure Mount plays 60 mins and then Lacey comes on. Also hoping for a better showing in general. Lets go team! Mainoo has a massive chance.

  6. So many comments already setting up to blame Mainoo. He’s not the only that needs to turn up.

    So does Cunha, so does Mount, so does Sesko, so does Ugarte and so on

  7. Why are they rushing bruno back. He should have been available for the City game at earliest now hes played two games before that. I swear he gonna get injured agian. Foolish

  8. The Mainoo comments are so strange.

    Half of them are from people who gave Amorim all the time in the world, but now Mainoo must have a world class performance today.

    This will be mainoos first start since grimsby (i think) he’s still going to be very rusty, and look that way. This sub will pile on him and feel amorim has been vindicated.
