He needs to learn how to rotate properly, playing our most influencial player in every game isn't that.
Just as a comparison, Feb 27th 1999 United played and beat Southampton 2-1, in a mad season full of endless games.
United's 11 that day was Schmeichel, G Neville, Johnsen, Berg, P Neville, Beckham, Butt, Scholes, Giggs, Yorke, Ole.
So, no Irwin, Stam, Keane, or Cole, 4 players who most would absolutely put in a "strongest 11" for that season. They were rested, Irwin, Keane and Cole all came on as subs (so not enforced changes).
That's just one example of a manager knowing how to rotate his side successfully. Bruno, Rashford, hell even Maguire considering the minutes he's played (and, you know, the shiteness) should not be starting this game. But they will.

That was an amazing squad though and we dont have that level of quality anymore, I agree we should be rotating more but Ole isn't having it.

what other chances are you going to get to really rest players this seasons
Henderson Williams - Axel - Maguire - Telles Matic - Fred Diallo - Mata - James Greenwood

Ole said after the first game that he wouldn't make many changes, as it's all about momentum going forward, honestly expenct to see Bruno starting this game. Ridiculous to not give a few lads a rest and play some kids This mentality is bizarre. It's almost as if he hasn't got a fucking clue what he's doing and is hoping 'momentum' brings the next win, rather than coaching the players to play well and put in a performance.

You'd think a 4-0 away result would be good enough to snap at the opportunity to rest some key players.
if he truly goes full strength for this then he is fucking thick.

If we're going with a full strength squad (or similar) then I'd expect 10-0

After seeing that lineup I was trying to think of something to say, but I’m literally speechless.
The day he’s out the door can’t come soon enough.

Thick as shit. No other way to describe it. Utterly and completely thick.

Honestly fuming with that lineup. Why the fuck risk Bruno in a game where we essentially have a +4 handicap? Why not rotate the lineup more beyond that either? Tuanzebe, Williams and Diallo should all be starting.
Probably serve him right if Bruno does pick up a knock tonight that puts him out of the tough run we have coming up.

Mata must have a knock surely? There are 3 keepers on the bench!
