Manchester United are preparing to host West Brom in the Premier League later this evening when the two sides will kick-off at 8pm UK time.
Coming into this evening’s game, United sit down in 14th place in the league table but do have a game in hand over 16 other teams.
However, the Reds have failed to win a single game at home so far this season with top-six rivals Arsenal, Chelsea and Spurs all taking points away from United’s stomping ground.
Elsewhere, West Brom come into this evening’s game just inside the league’s relegation zone having failed to win a single game this season.
As both side’s line-ups have now been confirmed, there is one surprise exclusion that star-midfielder Paul Pogba has not been named in Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s matchday squad.
The Frenchman has not even managed to make his side’s bench.
According to news on BBC Sport, the 26-year-old has picked up what has been described as a ‘knock’ and is not fit enough to start.
Solskjær: “He [Pogba] tried to finish the last session but it [ankle] got worse and worse so he is unavailable today. Hopefully he is OK for Tuesday [against Istanbul] but we’ll see.” #mulive [bbc]

Never sacrifices himself for the team unlike McTominay

So many people saying Solskjaer is clueless when they found out he wasn’t in the squad when it was always going to be due to an injury. It’s as though people want to cause divides between our players & our manager instead of simply waiting to find out the facts first.

This ankle has been a problem since summer 2019, such a strange injury…..
