'Masterclass incoming' - Manchester United fans react to XI against Colchester United

Manchester United are looking to avoid an upset at Old Trafford this evening and are aiming to seal their spot in the semi-finals of the Carabao Cup.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side play host to Colchester United at the quarter-final stage, where the Premier League side are firm favourites to secure a victory against lower-league opposition.
