Paul Pogba (£8.4m) will have to wait a little while longer to get his first league start since returning from injury.

He has been named on the bench for the Gameweek 19 meeting with Newcastle United which kicks off at 17:30 GMT.

The Frenchman made his comeback with a 26-minute cameo against Watford in Gameweek 18 and still hasn’t featured from the beginning since Gameweek 7.

However, there is a rare start for Mason Greenwood (£4.3m), just his second of the season.

The youngster has been stationed on the right-hand side of an attacking midfield trio, Marcus Rashford (£9.1m) on the opposite flank and Anthony Martial (£7.7m) up-front.

Meanwhile, there is some rotation for Newcastle United too.

Dwight Gayle (£5.0m) comes into the line-up in the place of Andy Carroll (£5.4m), who finds himself on the bench.

Joining him among the substitutes is central midfield pair Jonjo Shelvey (£5.1m) and Isaac Hayden (£4.4m), who have been replaced in the first XI by Sean Longstaff (£5.0m) and Matthew Longstaff (£4.5m).

Manchester United XI: De Gea; Shaw, Maguire, Lindelöf, Wan-Bissaka; McTominay, Fred; Rashford, A Pereira, Greenwood; Martial.

Newcastle United XI: Dúbravka; Willems, Lejeune, Fernández, Schär, Manquillo; Almirón, M Longstaff, S Longstaff; Joelinton, Gayle.

    1. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Lindelof was out of position so he had to move across tbf.

    Awful defending.

    How is Gollum still manager? Embarrassing (and hilarious)

    1. SADIO SANÉ
      • 11 Years

      So good

    2. Lebowski85

      Haha...he does look like Smeagle doesn't he

    3. WVA
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Really don't think they can expect much more, same with Arsenal, need to stop sacking everyone and accept they are a top 10 team for a bit

    4. Dr Van Nostrand
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      top6 record has saved him otherwise they'd be in a relegation battle

      1. ᶠᶦˡᵗʰʸLucre $$$
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 7 months ago

        Meh, like not dumping a girl who does your head in just because she is a good cook.

        1. BeaversWithAttitude

          Lol, I resemble that remark...

  13. WVA
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 7 months ago

    Scuffs it into the bottom corner

  14. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    He HATES Manchester!

  15. Rainer

    Harry Maguire.

    Magnus Carlsen knows!

    1. Lebowski85
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      He called it. Nobody can say otherwise

  16. Niho992

    Still dont get it how Maguire costed 85 mil. At his best day he is worth about 30 milion. Average player.

      DDG has blown the confidence of the defence IMO. Needs to be dropped for Romero. Will see a big uplift in performance, similar to when Roberto was dropped for Martin by West Ham.

    2. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Leicester knew when to get rid.

  17. Dr Van Nostrand

    ManU losing this relegation 6 pointer

    1. ‘Tis the Season
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Championship side already

  20. Qaiss
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 7 months ago

    Bit of normality occurring in this football season

    Favourites Newcastle up at Old Trafford 😉

    Rashford and Martial though... What a waste they've been so far lol

  21. Davido989

    Whoever approved the purchase of Harry Maguire for a world record £80m deserves to be sacked.

    1. Lebowski85
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Woodwoodwood

    2. WVA
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      You could say that about all of United's signings?

      1. Dr Van Nostrand
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 7 months ago

        Atleast only Pogba and Lukaku cost that much tho

    3. Total Slotball
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Evans sold for pennies years ago and would be their best defender till this day sums up their transfer deals.

    4. HurriKane
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Should have resigned Evans instead.

  22. FDMS All Starz
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 7 months ago

    DDG could do nothing there

  23. Hughes Your Daddy
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 7 months ago

    Man lol Utd 😀 The team that just keeps on giving

  24. Stef rocks
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 7 months ago

    Absolutely disastrous - Maguire Cs gone - worst transfer ever - even though only for 2 GW

    1. GOTHAM City F.C.
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Even Maguire doesn't own Maguire

      1. Hughes Your Daddy
        • 14 Years
        6 years, 7 months ago

        😀

  25. MagicMessi
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 7 months ago

    I did Rashford and Richarlison to Salah and Deeney just 0.0. Itb

    1. BIG TONES
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Richarlison was one to keep imo

  26. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 7 months ago

    Inspiration oozing out of Ole.

    1. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      All the inspiration of when a science teacher has to double up as PE teacher.

  27. Fred54

    FFS can't believed I over looked Matty Longstaff this GW after accidentally clicking on Sports Direct website in October of this year.

  28. BIG TONES

    Wtf was that celebration? Looked like he was shooting heroin

    1. SADIO SANÉ
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      What's wrong with that?

      1. BIG TONES
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 7 months ago

        I'm kind of wondering what it meant - steroids? A celebration of the local smack culture?

        1. SADIO SANÉ
          • 11 Years
          6 years, 7 months ago

          probably the latter 😀

      2. GreennRed
        • 14 Years

        It's my wife and it's my life.....

    2. Fred54
      • 11 Years

      It is 'Madchester' afterall..

    Harry Maguire. Discuss

    1. ‘Tis the Season
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Disgusting rather

    2. Hughes Your Daddy
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Over rated to the Max.

    3. Ritchies Magic Hat
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 7 months ago

      I don’t want to talk about it

    4. @persecuted_by_mods
      6 years, 7 months ago

      Not much he can do alone tbh, people just jumping on his back

  30. Butcher
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 7 months ago

    Cannot trust United at all. Doing Rashford and Richarlison to Maupay and Salah. Salah single handedly will outscore both goons
