Manchester United could spring a shock move on the Hammers this week by recalling Paul Pogba to the starting line up on Sunday.
Pogba has missed the last month but was given the green light to step up training by the physiotherapist this week.Whether he starts is an open question as he is presumably not match fit at this stage.
This is of course a seriously important game for United as they bid for one of the Champions League placings along with the Irons.
However,a top OT source explained that Marcus Rashford is still in pain from the ankle injury he picked up at Manchester City last weekend.
He has been scanned and although there is no ligament damage he hasn’t been pushed in training and the bench appears to be his best option..
Edinson is another possible absentee as he is making only a slow recovery from a muscle injury.
However, he has been in training and manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has to decide whether to hold him back for the game against AC Milan next week.
He’ll get sulky quick enough when he’s bullied by Rice and Soucek.
Amad Traoré worries me a bit of he plays hasn’t played as much but huge talent & could be a wildcard that we don’t haven’t seen enough to do homework on. But still fancy us for win.
Surely the greater number of delicate players that Man Utd field against us on Sunday, the better our chances of closing the gap. Really shouldn’t worry us whoever is in their team. The way we approach games these days is not to counter opposition tactics but to impose ourselves and our style on the game. Man Utd have to worry and work. We’re sorted and ready.
