I feel like he's gonna really stodge up and strengthen that midfield. voice-verified

Is there evidence of that from his time at Chelsea or how do you read how he'll approach this? voice-verified

Well we're used to them controlling it with the ball, but I wonder if that midfield also points to an intention to control it without the ball as well, because you have got a lot of physicality in those three if that's what he goes with. voice-verified

Yeah, I think when we look at City's team sheet before the game on Sunday, for those who want to, Andy, before you chip in, I think it would be revealing about Moreska's mindset for this game when you see who's in the middle of midfield, if it is those those three more physical players rather than a Cherky or a Foden, and when you see who the fullbacks are. voice-verified

I think Nico O'Reilly is a doubt. voice-verified

Porto in midweek wasn't involved. voice-verified

He's obviously a lot more of an attacking fullback than if it's Josko Vardiol that's there. voice-verified

And even on the other side, Mateus Nunez was back in the team for the Porto game, but Kusinov has played there a lot at the start of this season. voice-verified

And Rashford versus Kusunov or Rashford versus Nunez are two very different things. voice-verified

So maybe that's something to keep an eye out to see how he's approaching this. voice-verified

Because the other thing is, we're talking about how big this game is for United. voice-verified

It's a huge game for them as well. voice-verified

They've started the season results wise well, not been perfect like Keris has been saying. voice-verified

So this is why I feel like it's a big game. voice-verified

It's great, isn't it? voice-verified

It's fun. voice-verified

I can't wait. voice-verified

I can't wait either. voice-verified

And voice-verified
