    I don’t think I’ve ever been as uninterested about an upcoming season as this one. Part of it is the way JM has us playing football but part of it is also the realization that has been growing on me for decades that football/MUFC is just a waste of time and distraction from more important things.

    Though the game against Club América made me a little bit more interested. Mainly because of the performance of Andreas Pereira, who i think could be the missing link to our midfield. He gives us more pace in the build-up play. He’s got that urgency and forward-thinking to his game. Would like to se him starting the season.

    Objectives should be the PL and/or CL title and to play more attractive football.

    This is probably the formation and line-up I would like to see the most this season. The more I think about it, the more I think it could possibly unlock the best of our current squad:

    FORMATION: 4-2-2-2
    Martial Sánchez

    Pogba Pereira

    Matic Fred

    Shaw Bailly Lindelöf TFM
    DDG

    In this system, TFM would be slightly more defensive than Shaw. Getting forward a bit but not quite as much him. While the width on the left would be almost completely provided by Shaw (and to a lesser extent Martial on occasion), TFM, Pereira and Sánchez could take turns in providing the width on the right.

    Obvious swap options:
    – Lukaku for Sánchez
    – Rashford for Sánchez
    – Mata for Pereira
    – Lingard for Pereira
    – Rojo for Lindelöf
    – New CD for Lindelöf
    – Valencia for TFM
    – Dalot for TFM
    – etc

    Look how beautifully our current squad lends itself to the 4-2-2-2 formation! Just pick two players from each category to set the team up from midfield and onwards:

    Forwards: Martial, Sánchez, Rashford, Lukaku

    Attacking midfielders: Pogba, Pereira, Mata, Lingard

    Defensive midfielders: Matic, Fred, Herrera, McTominay
