Newcastle United vs Manchester United: Premier League – live! | Soccer

An email: “Terrible team selection tonight,” writes Neil Carter. “I’m struggling to understand what’s going on in Ole’s head. Henderson deserves a start had Maguire, Shaw, James not started and only one of Fred or McTominay is needed. Where’s Greenwood? Donny, poor Donny, will someone think of Donny for the love of God? What does he have to do to start? Poch will be sitting at home drinking a nice hot bovril rubbing hands together. ”

An interesting view from a Manchester United fan. To be clear, I have no idea where Greenwood is and I suspect Poch is more of a maté man.

Premier League: Manchester City beat Arsenal at Etihad, where Raheem Sterling scored the only goal of the game where all three points were scored for his side. It’s been a close affair, but Arsenal haven’t beaten any of their Big Six colleagues away since 2015.

These teams: Steve Bruce just makes a change to the team that beat Burnley in style and brings in Jamaal Lascelles for Fabian Schar.

In contrast, Ole Gunnar Solskjær makes four changes to the team that Tottenham gave their collective bum to. Victor Lindelof replaces Eric Bailly at the heart of Manchester United’s defense, while Scott Mac Tominay, Juan Mata, Fred and Dan James also join the team.

Paul Pogba and Nemanja Matic fell on the bench while Mason Greenwood ran out of place on the day’s squad. Donny Van de Beek’s wait for a first start in the Premier League continues. Harry Maguire starts despite speaking of a blow he suffered against Denmark in the English service.

Newcastle United: Darlow, Krafth, Fernandez, Lascelles, Lewis, Hayden, Shelvey, Hendrick, Saint-Maximin, Joelinton, Wilson

Subs: Gillespie, Schar, Manquillo, Murphy, Almiron, Fraser, Carroll

Manchester United: De Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Maguire, Shaw, Fred, McTominay, Mata, Fernandes, James, Rashford.

Subs: Henderson, Bailly, Telles, Matic, Pogba, Van de Beek, Ighalo

While Dwight Gayle, Sean Longstaff, and Martin Dubravka are all injured, Steve Bruce has a wide variety of treatment room returnees to choose from in Ciaran Clark, Paul Dummett, Jamal Lascelles, and Matty Longstaff. Miguel Almiron and Jamal Lewis could also play a role in today’s game despite doubts about their participation after the international outing. In shape, Allan Saint Maximin is set to take to the field tonight with barely dry ink on the new six-year deal he signed with Newcastle earlier this week.

After his release against Denmark while serving in England, Harry Maguire undoubtedly suffered an unspecified blow which may have been responsible for his slow walk back to the locker room after 31 minutes. However, he was included in today’s squad.

Edinson Cavani is still in quarantine after arriving during the transfer window. His new signing Alex Telles is on the tour group, although he has speculated he might be rested after his long-haul midweek flight from South America, where he’s been international duty for Brazil.

Anthony Martial will suspend that game on the Naughty Step as he plays the first game of his three-game ban after his departure from Tottenham Hotspur.

Sky Sports subscribers may have to pay £ 14.95 on top of their regular monthly fees to watch this game, but Guardian readers can read all about the trip from Manchester United to Newcastle here. The pressure on Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is mounting after a rather grim start to the Premier League season.

A matchday one defeat to Crystal Palace was followed by a somewhat accidental win against Brighton before the Norwegian watched in horror as he was beaten 6-1 by Tottenham Hotspur just before the international break at Old Trafford.

Newcastle fans are not convinced despite a decent start to the season from Steve Bruce, but even the worst players, forced to admit his team’s performance in the emphatic win over Burnley, were impressive. Would not you? Kick-off is at 8 p.m., but in the meantime, stay tuned for the setup.
