UCL is expanding to 36 teams next season and the team with the highest coefficient that doesn't qualify via league position will make it. So, if we finish 5th or 6th, we'll still qualify.
I don't think so, it is only four slots that is available how can EPL take 2 out of four? 5th position will qualify but I don't think of 6th.

Because we're trying to build a team is exactly the reason why they won't be benched. If we have a team you can bench your key players without much difficulty, otherwise you're cutting your nose to spite your face.
You build character and discipline first. But if you make some untouchable, you have already failed before you started.

Your point is that Rashford should always start regardless of his performance because the options on the bench are not as good as Rashford on his best days...

We are not talking about the player Rashford can be but his output now. If Rashford is not delivering, we should try others in that position.
My point is that you can't blame the manager for always starting Rashford because there's literally no strong competition for that starting spot. Simple!

We play Bayern tomorrow. You can't confidently name one player that should be starting over Rashford at the left. So what's all these long talks about?

Isn't Rashford delivering though? In our last match he was the major output constantly putting pressure on Brighton's defence. In a normal day he would have scored two plus 1 assist. In the match before he was involved in what, 2 goals?

Also, against Brighton I remember 3 instances his passes would have led to a goal, in fact one of them did but got ruled out.
Stats killed the beautiful game. Do you watch Rashford away from goals?

If a player scores like Haaland, I wouldn't mind him just scoring alone but for a player like Rashford who is not consistent, he needs to step up other aspects of his game.

If dem start Garnacho against Bayern tomorrow, your mind go cut. Going into the game, Rashford's probably that one guy you know can grab us that win or draw. So I don't even understand.

Again, they're looking at the player that Rashford can be and not what he is currently playing...

We have Garnacho and Martial as options.

There's a game we beat Arsenal 2 vs. 0 where Nani was jogging the ball with his head. Abeg can someone drop the lineup here let us see if the big names started.

If Garnacho was benched for playing poorly then should Rashford not be benched too? Is it only when Antony is involved that the talk of favouritism comes into play?

Last season Saint Maxim was supposed to be Newcastle best/most creative player. Eddie benched him for obvious reasons

Becuase for me any player who is doing well should start.

Simple if a player is not doing well, bench him.

If we asked for Garnacho to be benched for playing poorly, why not Rashford? He is talking about options.

If Rashford gets injured today, will we be playing every game with 10 men?

Some arguments no just make sense.

As long as you qualify for Europe (Europa league or conference league) , you’ll qualify. So, finishing 5th or 6th with high coefficients will do.

Thank you!

Maybe if Rashford gets injured tomorrow, they should just pack up the club and close for the season

Why're you ignoring the fact that Rashford has been better than the same Garnacho this season?

What type of stubbornness will make you keep hammering that Rashford has not been playing well so he needs to be benched. And then totally ignore the fact that Garnacho has been terrible and much worse this season.

I don't even understand you people on this thread sometimes.

If Garnacho keeps playing surely he will pick up...It is not even about Garnacho but you saying Rashford should keep starting because Garnacho was bad.

If Rashford and Garnacho are off form, the coach should set the team up to play without them...

I remember when Apari joined City. He was laughed at anytime his team lost. Even though he was losing, everyone could see the foundation he was laying. Many even argued that his style will never work in England.

We're losing now and in a depressing way. We can't even take comfort that some foundation is being laid because we can't see any foundation. We're still hoping for a moment of magic from Bruno and Rashford while the team play rubbish every game

Doesn't help the manager if he gets sacked in the middle of building character though. Character building exercise must be backed by results sha, Rashford na still our most prolific forward.

This is not to say I don't support Rashford being benched because he's been playing foolishly, but we have to be realistic. The manager has got to work with the tools at his disposal and Rashford is the best he's got for his position. Wouldn't be an issue if the others are remotely close to being a competition

Rashford is capable of salvaging the game even when he's terrible na my argument. He and Bruno Fernandes are the only people in our team that can do that. The manager, for his own sake, must be careful of his decisions about them.

Manchester United is considering hiring a 22-year-old goalkeeper because they are not impressed by Andre Onana

Manchester United is considering hiring a 22-year-old goalkeeper because they are not impressed by Andre Onana.

Manchester United have reportedly been unimpressed with Andre Onana’s recent outings. As a result, they have identified Valencia goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili as a potential signing in January next year.

The Red Devils signed Onana from Inter Milan in a switch worth up to £47 million, ending their pursuit for a sweeper keeper earlier this July. They tied down the ex-Ajax man to a five-year contract at Old Trafford.

However, the 34-cap Cameroon international has endured a nervy start to his new chapter in the ongoing 2023-24 campaign.

He has registered just one clean sheet in four games, conceding seven in the process.
