Seems a pretty strong team and bench
Just goes to show you 2nite pukki and balde don't have to be written off straight away. Both scored good goals tonight when started ;) coming on with 10 minutes to go makes it hard to make an impact!
Im not keen on pukki from what I've seen this season. To be fair to him, lennons tactics haven't helped him. Stokes should never be starting, in my opinion he ilwould be lucky to even be named a sub!

Big Amido needs his chance now. I'd happily see Amido + Pukki start over Stokes + Forrest the next league game!
I thought that balde took his goal well. Really classy finish. And pukki goal was good too. Balde unlucky with bambas OG. Thought he was going to attack that one but watching the replay bamba wasall over it . His pass into pukki lacked big time if these two are going to be a partnerships. Overall they both looked good.
{Ed007's Note - As far as I know Carlos Mane is not one of the youngsters that Utd have targeted. They have been trailing Adryan Tavares, Alen Halilovic, Fulham's Moussa Dembele and the young Brazilian Kenedy. The only way I can see them looking at Mane is if Nani finally leaves.}
