Admittedly the defenders have done a couple of last ditch tackles in the box but Fabianski has only made 1 save to note. We haven't been great but at least all is not yet lost.
But we've pretty much done exactly what I think Moyes wants us to do
Because after 45 minutes we've kept them pretty quietly, and I'm sure if we can get to 60minutes this way they will get more frustrated and more likely to make a mistake
Personally I'd like to see Benrahma and Odubeko for Noble and Yarmolenko but I think Moyes will keep it like this for a little while

We can only grow into the game from here, as an attacking unit

Odubeko? Who knows. Good record at U23 level but so did Robert Hall and Elliot Lee.
Bowen? Maybe, but his form has dipped massively.
So we're left with a false 9. I think we have the players for it now that Lingard's here, but again, it's untested.
Ultra defensive? Back five? Noble false 9?
Are we the first team to make a concussion sub
That's all our substitutions used already. Ah, sorry, Fredericks a concussion sub.
Wonder if Bowen is under the weather.
Johnson and Fredericks wing backs.
Noble Rice Soucek in the middle.
Fornals behind the wheelie bin.
