Old Trafford, Manchester
Saturday 5 November 2011
KO - 15:00GMT
 
De Gea

Rafael
Jones
Vidic
Evra

Nani
Park
Rooney
Valencia
Welbeck

Hernandez

feck playing a midfield.
 
Team will be...

GK: De Gea

RB: Jones
CB: Vidic
CB: Evans
LB: Evra

RM: Nani
CM: Fletcher
CM: Rooney
LM: Park

CF: Welbeck
CF: Hernandez

Subs: Lindegaard, Fabio, Ferdinand, Fryers, Anderson, Valencia, Berbatov

Decided there's no point doing what team I'd like to see as it's pretty clear that Evans will play ahead of Ferdinand and I suspect Rooney will continue in midfield ahead of Anderson meaning Welbeck and Hernandez up front

Make no mistakes this is going to be more of the same, expect a Norwich style performance and a very tight game. I'll go 2-0 Welbeck & Park scoring
 
-------------De Gea------------

Jones-------Rio-----Vidic---Evra

Valencia---Fletcher---Park---Nani

--------Hernandez---Rooney------

Subs
Lindegaard
Fabio
Evans
Pogba
Anderson
Welbeck
Berbatov

Assuming no Smalling, Carrick, Cleverley, Giggs or Young
 
-----------------------------De Gea-------------------------



---Fabio------------P. Jones-------N.Vidic-----------P. Evra--



------------Fletcher-------W. Rooney------Anderson---------



---Park J S-----------------Welbeck------------L. Nani------


Formation:4-3-3
Subs: Lindegaard, Rio, Fryers, Pogba, Tony Valencia, Berbatov, Hernandez
Prediction:3-0 Rooney, Welbeck, Park
I will sub in Hernandez in 2nd half once defence tires.
I will sub in Berbatov to gain more possession.
 
Welbeck will definitely play due to his loan experience with Sudnerland last year.
I can see us having lots of possession. Whether we can creates chances and score is another issue.

i hope to see the rio-vidic partnership again, although i think evans will start over rio...

i just want to see nani back on the right hand side, he is much better on the right wing than he is on the left,with carrick, cleverley, giggs out i've got no problem to see rooney starting in midfield again, although i hope he is going to resume his number 10 role sooner.
 
Is he not? i thought he was avaiable for this gama.
"Cleverley won't play tomorrow," announced Sir Alex, at his pre-match press conference. "It's not serious but it's one of those injuries where he got a little tweak on it on Saturday. We'll look at the long view and make sure he's available for a long period rather than play him again and risk it coming back to haunt us. I think he'll miss Saturday's game also."
 
Slim pickings with Carrick, Cleverly and Giggs missing. Fletcher and Rooney with Welbeck and Hernandez up front for me. Think Anderson needs a spell out of the team.
 
--------------De Gea---------------
Jones------Rio------Vidic-------Evra
Valencia---Fletch---Anderson---Nani
---------Rooney----Chicharito------
 
Fergie also said Park has an important role this weekend so he'll definitely start
 
........De Gea
Jones Rio Vida Evra
..Fletcher Carrick
.Nani Rooney Park
......Chicharito

Why was Carrick out last game? I'm losing track of all these injuries. He's not listed on physioroom.

If no Carrick, then put Park in CM and Nani on the left and bring in Valencia.
 
Any source on this?
:wenger:

Young, Smalling, Cleverley out.

Vidic back.

Anderson doubtful, Carrick back in training.

Owen injured his thigh. Ferguson hopes he's not out for too long. No result from scan yet.
 
Fletcher and Park, methinks.

Rooney with Hernandez up front, and Welbeck with Valencia on the wings. Nani will play 180 minutes against Bosnia during international break...
 
I reckon we'll see Carrick if he's back in full training
 
I wish we stop playing a dodgy line-up, i hope Carrick is back for this.
 
Ok, so I got my 6-0 against Galati wrong.

Im going 3-1. Rooney Hernandez Park.
 
De Gea
Jones, Rio, Vidic, Evra
Valencia, Fletcher, Park, Nani
Rooney, Welbeck

Bench: Berbatov, Chicha, Lindegaard, Fabio, Evans, Carrick, Pogba.
