you can't get someone to stand in for your ban, nice idea but it won't work.

March was possibly our best player for the first 5-6 games this season, unlucky to be dropped and then when brought back he's played on the right where he is clearly not as comfortable/effective. Locadia is a STRIKER, who can apparently play LEFT wing. So we effectively have 2 LEFT wingers and a striker who can play LEFT wing.
If we were going to change it to play Locadia then I'd play Gross on the right and Locadia behind Murray but that is effectively disrupting 2 positions so play March, he knows the position and can/will track back.

My initial thought was Locardia, but you make a compelling counter-argument.

If Stephens is out then it makes sense to have as few other changes as possible.

On his last warning
I don't think Locadia is quick enough to play on the wing with the style we play.
IMO Jose and March are our 2 most effective wingers when they're on form. March's form has definitely been inconsistent this season. His old bad habits have returned with failed crosses and poor decision making, but I've a feeling March will soon adapt like he did in the Championship. If so, March could soon be a top player for us. He definitely has the technical ability. He just needs a good run in the team.

Good post.
However, I’m just not sure we’ll ever be in a position to give players too much of a run to find their form.

Locadia looked quality at Old Trafford, while March had a poor game. I suspect Locadia will start, and I hope he does.

I thought when we signed him that his speed was said to be one of his plus points and he has certainly looked no slouch.
Bad post.
Locadia has pace to burn, that’s why we bought him. He is a forward, not a winger. He’ll only be on the flanks as part of a 4-3-3. March, Knocky & Izzy are much better defenders than Jurgen who simply ‘can’t defend’ according to Dutch commentators.
Megawrong this time buddy.
Would that be the same March who skinned their full back and dropped a pin point cross onto the centre of Locadia's forehead?

Yes. In the match he did a couple of good things, but was largely poor
