United’s Quest for Europa Glory Gets Goofy…
Oh, what a pickle for Manchester United! After getting the boot from the FA Cup thanks to Fulham’s penalty prowess, the Reds have set their sights on the Europa League. Tonight, the boys in red head to Spain, where they’ll shake their boots against Real Sociedad in hopes of coming back with a smile and a scoreline they can brag about.
Patrick Dorgu escaped a spell on the bench due to a domestic-only suspension, leaving the Maguire-Ugarte duo sidelined with a big, fat “do not play” sign hanging over them. With Chido Obi unable to join the Euro party, Ruben Amorim’s lineup options look slimmer than skinny jeans on a sumo wrestler. But fear not! Our writer, Steven Railston, suggests putting a little faith in Mr. Casemiro to dance around the midfield. And hey, let’s give Mazraoui a whirl in defense!
Meanwhile, George Smith’s tactical tinker tips lean towards a Dorgu-Dalot wing-back duo, as he fancies Garnacho up front to shake things up with Hojlund and Zirkzee. Can United piece together this puzzle of players and snatch a smile-worthy score? Stick around to find out if they’ll soar or snore on Spain’s turf!
