For me I'd be throwing the kid Parrot in but Mourinho doesn't want to throw him into the deep end.
Lloris
Aurier Toby Sanchez Davies
Lo Celso Winks Ndombele
Lucas Dele Bergwijn
Defence cover: Tanganga, Vertonghen, Sessengon, Foyth
Midfield cover: Dier, Gedson, Skipp
Fwd cover: Lamela
Problem 1 being that Ndombele isn't fit so his spot goes to Dier or Gedson Fernandes.
Problem 2 being that Lamela is the only rotation option for the whole front 3 and every time we rely on him he breaks down
Down to our bare bones!

Yeah he could and move to a 3-5-2 but every time we've done that we have been awful and he's had to make a HT or early 2nd half sub to make back to a back 4

What's up with Ndombele? Was beasting it jn Ligue 1, now struggling with the tempo of the game. I thought he could have been the signing to take you guys to the next level. Perhaps he still can and just needs a season to adjust.
Just do a Barca and sign a forward even though the window is over

Battled through injuries during pre-season and just can't get a full crack at it. I'm still very confident he'll be a boss of a CM, season 1 was always going to be an adjustment year which he's done well at to an extent. There's been a handful of games where you can see him dominate but then in others he looks as fit as me!

This sounds a lot like what United fans went through with Fred last season.
He looked completely lost at this level in his first season and just couldn't get a game. Now after some time to settle he's looking on track to take home the clubs POTS award in his second season.
Ndombele is a talented player. I suspect he's just going to need some patience before it comes together for him.

He never looks lost out there he just looks gassed at the end of the half. Even in those games he looks like a quality player for 15-20 mins.
Throw in the fact that he is quite often then injured after playing a good 90 mins and it's like he is a young Dembele!

We just cant score easily or keep a clean sheet. We are screwed.
Really hoped Wolves would be amongst the mix. Natural progression from Europa to Champions league. I hope that Sheffield isn’t close. They’ll get hammered with the quality of play plus don’t have the depth

I can’t see Tottenham doing it now they’ve lost Son. Still fancy Chelsea but it’s up for grabs now really. Everton are the form team, if they can keep their form going against some very difficult opponents they will sneak 4th or 5th

I think United will get it and Ole will keep his job.

I reckon the Estonian flag with a pringles logo would do the trick.
