Those of you saying the midweek was because of Ole's substitutions, I'll be expecting you to post any second lauding the substitutions he made this morning - Matic to Lingard for the winner, can't argue with that decision making.
On a different note, I can't stand the new leniency on contact for fouls. Players need more protection, not less. Players getting kicked out of the game is a blight on the sport and the new interpretations encourage it. Another week where Atkinson proves he has no business refereeing at the top level and the VAR absolutely bottled it too.

To be fair re: Ole's substitutions vs Young Boys.....he replaced Ronaldo with Jesse, and then Martial for Fred.....his subs made more sense this time, in terms of personnel.
Team v West Ham midweek;
Henderson
Dalot
Telles
Bailly
Lindelof
Matic
DvdB (subbed off early. Because he is Donny, and it must be so)
JL
Sancho
Elanga
Martial
Heaton, AWB, Jones, McSauce, Mata, Shoretire, Greenwood
But Ole will play Maguire and Bruno, I'm sure
