Alright, let’s see. So, Ruben Amorim, this guy, he’s keeping things exactly as they were for Man United in this Europa League quarter-final match against Lyon. Like, zero changes. You ever just stick with something ’cause, why not? Maybe that’s what he’s doing.
Anyway, who’s where, you ask? Andre Onana’s holding it down in goal. Defense? We got a back three of Mazraoui, Maguire, and Yoro. Sounds like the start of an odd joke, but nope—it’s just football.
Wingbacks? That’s Dalot and Dorgu, zooming down the sides, doing what they do. Midfield, it’s Casemiro and Ugarte, probably trying to boss it like it’s their living room.
Then, up front, who do we have? Bruno Fernandes—you know him, he’s like the wildcard. Garnacho, probably eager to prove something, and then Hojlund, rounding it off. Solid trio.
And the bench, oh man, it’s like a crowded bus. Bayindir, Heaton—lots of potential there. Shaw and Lindelof, always ready if called, and Mainoo, back after healing up. Bit like a homecoming, really.
Oh, and the sideline crew includes Mount, Zirkzee… the list goes on. Mainoo’s getting back after weeks off—that’s worth noting. Injuries? Yeah, we’ve got Heaven, Martinez, De Ligt, Evans, and Amad out. Hopefully, they’re getting cozy with ice packs and Netflix.
And get this, Chido Obi wasn’t registered for the tournament. Paperwork, man. Always a hassle.
Kick-off’s at 8 PM UK time. Groupama Stadium about to get loud, I bet. Check the featured image by Carl Recine; credit where it’s due, right?
