I suspect Henri Miki will find it hard to get himself back in the team as he was obviously not fit and had a shocker. Jose probably won't forget that quickly going by his interview after the match. Lingerie was Joseph mistake because he shouldn't be having his first start of the season in a highly intense Derby like that.
He probably needs a few more matches. Maybe he'll get another chance against feyenoord. Hope to see a few others get a chance in this match.

Also the sooner Smalling and Bailey are allowed to develop a partnership the better.I like Blind but he should not be our first choice cb.

List of Squad Members for the Europa Match



Luke Shaw and Darmian are rested! Rojo and Mensah are likely to start as LB and RB respectively!

Lingard is honorably left out too! Same as Mkhitaryan (because of injury though).

Guess you see the exclusion of Rooney as a good development?

Thanks!

Darmian will definitely start the Match ahead of Mensah!

The good news is; ROONEY is left out of the Squad!


Cc Elampiro

Diademk07 - what's your reaction to Rooney's omission? Good or bad news?!
Rooney being left out of the squad is no big deal. Mourinho can as well rest Ibrahimovic.



My concern is him having the balls to bench Rooney in league games.

ROONEY is rested or deliberately left out?!
Yes, Shaw, Valencia, Rooney, Lingard, Mkhitaryan, Jones, are the major absentees.

Shaw, Valencia, Rooney are likely rested. Valencia deserves it most. Shaw is recovery from injury.

Mkhitaryan and Lingard were likely axed. Lingard will have to fight his way back into the team while Mkhitaryan will have to be gradually introduced into the team.

Jones is either not selected or injured. Mkhitaryan, Lingard and Jones will have to start from the capital 1 cup. They have a long way to go now to coming back to first eleven.

@elampiro, where's your guy Jones? Probably got injured while on his bed grin

Jose wouldn't have travelled with Ibra. He's old, needs rest and only a game per week.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 3:55pm On Sep 14, 2016
Rooney might also be injured. That collusion with Bravo was heavy.

Exactly my thought!

Hey bro, I believe you are entitled to your own opinion and as such are free to post whatever you like on any thread. But, I will appreciate if you can just pick other players for your comparison other than Barca players. Posts like yours are the reasons why most guys here lable Barca fans all sort of names without taking cognisance of the poster cheesy cheesy cheesy. I believe you are new on the football threads, I may be wrong though.
Ok now, let us be frank and sincere, pogba is way below the league and quality of Rafinha.
The acheivements of Rafinha is what pogba are still dreaming to get and he will never get it.
Rafinha has won the champions league, club world cup, olympic gold medal.
these are what pogba can never acheive unless he leaves manu and come to great great great great great Barcelona.

So to be the best player you have to be in a team that wins trophies regardless of your contributions. I'd like to know hoe much contribution rafinha had in Barca let alone pushing for their titles won. Interesting how the brain of glory hunting barca supporters work. Going by this logic these guys last season who won all there is to win bar the champions league are the best in their positions and no one elsewhere is fit to lace their boots. Its much fun to stare at paint dry than to hear a uefalona fan make sense. All they know is to shout messi or msn...nothing else!

Bartra
Munir
Jordi Alba
S.Roberto
Aleix Vidal
Vermaelen
Mathieu
Samper
Gumbau

He dominated in Eredivise and trust me that league deserves more credit than it gets.

I used to be a fan of the guy initially, in my mind he would be the next Ronaldo. But I have lost hope in the guy now he has potential but his decision making is poo. Instead of creating chances for others he will just cutinside and play a terrible shot. Anyway hope he improves but for now I don't see him benching even Ashley Young.

Depay will come good. Even though it hurts seeing that skilled young boy from psv who was destined for big thiings become almost like a liability to this team, i still believe Mourinho's desire to rotate and use a tiny squad that would die to win for him would go a long way in helping the lad. Last year we had a manager who knew how to yap about philosophy but didn't have one on the pitch...The loss of confidence in the boss spread to the team, the disenchantment was enough to cripple some young players, although some rose head high above it, some couldn't. But it would be much different now with Mourinho indicating how desperate he is to see him as well as the others getting into the heat of things. There is still big hope.

The Capital 1 cup will give us a clue on what is happening to Jones. If he is injured, we won't see him.

Jose Mourinho is now facing the media to preview Thursday's Europa League group match in Feyenoord.

He starts by addressing Wayne Rooney's absence from the match squad:

"He plays every game since the beginning of the season and also 90 minutes for England. I want him to be fresh for the next Premier League match."

Mourinho admits the Europa League is not every players dream but the team still wants to win the competition.

"I know the Europa League is not the big dream of every big player, but you're not in the Champions League - you have to find your motivation.

"You come to respect your opponent, you come to win the game...we want to win the competition. It's difficult to do it but it is simple to feel it and say it - that is how we want to approach the competition.

"I have brought a very good squad and I will play with a very good team. After defeat, the best thing is to play. Everyone wants to be on the pitch tomorrow."

Ander Herrera also present spoke to the media and said the team wants to show a reaction to the Derby defeat.

"I'm playing for the most successful team in England and we always want to keep winning things. We want to win every game. Tomorrow is a good challenge for us - we have to show a reaction from Saturday.

"We are enjoying every training session and every player is ready to play. We have a good squad, we are playing with freedom because we feel the confidence of our manager."
