The FA CUP Quarter Final ** Spoilers ** [11th - 13th March 2017]

In what way did we pull Chicharito out of our reserves?

Apologies, He was a youngster and a relative unknown who made a big impact quickly which was the point I was trying to make.

None of them were 14 either, I wasn't concerned with being 100% factual and was just making a statement that I wouldn't be surprised if it happened again.
 
Had a glance at the Man Utd Reserves/U23 and there doesn't seem to be any strikers worth calling up for tonight's game.
 
De Gea, Valencia, Jones, Smalling, Rojo, Darmian, Herrera, Pogba, Young, Mkhitaryan, Rashford.

Courtois; Azpilicueta, David Luiz, Cahill, Moses, Kante, Matic, Alonso, Willian, Diego Costa, Hazard.
 
Weird that Valencia isn't starting, and Rojo at left back again :/ Or is that three at the back again and Young as a wing back?

Edit: ignore that didn't see Valencia, no idea how we're lining up then. We seem to have 6 defenders.

------------------------De Gea
Valencia-Darmian-Smalling-Jones-Rojo-Young


-----------------Herrera------Pogba-------------
--------------------------Mkhi
------------------------Rashford
 
So what is that Manchester United line-up all about? Jose Mourinho won't tell BBC interviewer Dan Walker. The Portuguese boss is at his cagey best in the pre-match interview:

"I can't explain," he says when asked about his formation. "Just keep speaking in the studio, keep entertaining the people at home. See the game and after a couple of minutes you will understand."

"Will Phil Jones play in midfield?" asks our man Dan. "I can't tell you," is Mourinho's reply.

Well ok then :/
 
Given that we only have one ill striker and likely Young playing in a position he hasn't played for like two years it seems likely! Rumours of Jones in midfield too :/
