Mourinho: "It is hard for me to believe that we are going to play on that field, if you can call it a field. I don't know what team to play"

Mourinho compares the Rostov pitch to the Bird's Nest in the summer. Just raised concerns to UEFA official, who told him players are insured

Mourinho: "I don’t think Mkytarian is going to play. I have to think because I was expecting something more playable." #MUFC







Paul Hirst‏ @hirstclass





Daley Bind: "The pitch is not good maybe for safety as well but you have to gather your mind and be fully concentrated on the game. It looks like the pitch from our tour of China that was cancelled."

Mourinho: "I didn't bring Luke Shaw, because why take the risk on a terrible pitch. Why hurt his confidence after a good return." #MUFC

The boss adds that he has a lot to think about with regards to team selection due to the state of the pitch at the Olimp-2 stadium. It's hard like a cricket wicket in winterpic.twitter.com/bzJ31dmFvb

We have always been doing this and have a good close working relationship at youth levels.

Jose's pep talk for tonight: Go break a leg!

 

[Theatre of dreams]

Would defo play the likes of Young, Darmian, Schweinstiger, Fellaini, TFM. Hope to get an away goal.

Seems solid enough...

Yes lol watched that. Watched a couple of highlights of there games on YouTube. And there was at least 3 occasions the keeper kicked it out and it bounced once and went straight to the oppo keeper. Reminded me of a pitch I use to play at in Conningsby, Lincolnshire. Was like playing on a slabbed patio.

Bit weird this one. The FA have to be 100% sure that Mings stamped on Zlatan on purpose. Benefit of the doubt???

Tonight's pitch as of this morning

I can only think of one worse pitch that I ever played on and that was at one corner of the pitch had some rather big tree roots in it, playing left back I didn't mind as much when a winger who got by me wiped himself out on one of them.

 

[greenall90]

Interesting to see what team he plays tonight with the pitch and the Chelsea game on Monday. My guess would be:
Romero,Young,Smalling,Rojo,Blind,Herrera,Fellaini,Pogba,Mata,Rashford,Ibrahimovic

 

[Anthony]

Won't matter if Pogba gets injured.
He won't turn up for Chelsea anyway
