Thanks my guess of how we might line up based on pre season
Going to be great occasion though shame not in the ground to see it.
Getting good start under the new manager very important
Come on United !!
Pawlett has started every game of pre-season. Got to be a shoe in to start. Too soon for Bolton imo.
Tombola selection:
Siegrist
Smith Connolly Reynolds Robson
Pawlett Butcher Harkes Appere
Clark Shankland
Interesting. I'm not clued up on the youth teams as i used to be so could some one fill me in on what Neilson is like? i know on Dode fox podcast they said something about him being a big laddie but thats about it. i thought the boy Ross Graham was meant to be the next in line to get his chance?
I would stick
benji
Smith connolly reynolds robson
Pawlett harkes butcher smith
Clark Shankland
Being a critic of Pawlett last season, which was more down to how we played him rather than him and his efforts I am hoping he kicks on this season but to be honest the only way i see that happening is if we switch to the somewhat controversial 4231 formation that seems to divide opinion on here. Personally I think we have the personel for that more than 442 at the moment and would go either
Benji
Smith Butcher Reynolds Robson
Harkes Powers
Bolton Clark Appere
Shanks
Pawlett/Smith for me can move in to the 3 behind Shankland but I still think both of them would be better in the middle of the 3
Or
Benji
Smith Connolly Reynolds Robson
Bolton Harkes Butcher Apperre
Shanks Clark
In this, i see no position for Pawlett/Smith and would rather look at others like Mochrie etc
