Arsenal to lose in greece
Blatantly the game that LvG and his philosophy will come together and we will finish 5 - 0 winners.

Do you think LvG realises we need to win and might actually try and score this game?

Jesus our squad is so small 
must win Champions League game and we have to start Fellaini and a right back who hasn't even played 90 mins yet. Basically nothing on the bench as well.

Absolutely.
However, even if Manchester United, Manchester City, Chelsea, and Arsenal all do go through none of them will make it past the next stage.
Chelsea just lost to Bournemouth and are two points above the relegation zone, banking on them to win any fixture is a push at the minute, in my opinion.
City are out of form and without their leaders, so similar situation.
Manchester United aren't good enough.
Arsenal might, but they have a lot of players out of form, injured, and tend to drop away in Europe in the latter stages.
All my opinion, of course. I just do not think that English clubs are up to doing much beyond the final 8 in Europe.
They all have the ability to step up though which is important
Hargreaves caught out there, didn't realise he was live and was asking how they could keep their only chance of winning on the bench
Yeah.
Carrick has looked keen to pass the ball forward whenever he's played, so that's probably why he's benched. Can't be having that.
And that's Carrick, who is hardly a forward passing machine to start with...

Carrick was pretty dreadful last match, kept giving the ball away and getting caught on the ball.
LvG has picked a strange team considering this could be a turning point in his United tenure. Only thing I'm glad not to see is Rooney really. Why Fellaini is there and Pereira and Young are on the bench is beyond me.
I bet that Felliani will be the striker and he will stick Martial out on the wing. He says that we can't expect that much from Martial yet and I agree to a certain extent but a good start would be sticking him properly up front.
