Still bloody unlikely he'll actually get on the pitch though.
No Rooney. Possible Morrison.
I await the team news with fear and excitment then!
Edit: No real surprise. We've played it safe and gone with experience.

Can we expect another pissy twitter message from Ravel?
That's a shame, a player with no United future. I was hoping Rav would make the bench.
Monday
Fergie says "Smalling it out and Rooney, Welbeck &E vans should be okay"
Tuesday
Man Utd team: Smalling is fit and Ronney, Welbeck & Evans are out
I don't get it......this isn't a CL final for so many lies.

i know gibbo has some experience, but ffs
Gibson looks happy to be back.
Going to be a tough one.1-1
Rafael!
I guess Ravell was in the matchday squad, but did not make the bench.
So Ravel's just gonna watch while the reserves are playing?
I don't always disagree with Fergie but Gibbo over Morrison really?
They're giving him a taste of Berbatov's weekly life.
ffs
more CL experience, including semi final(s)
Yeah, a must win CL game and he goes for the international who scored in the SF last year instead of the player who has only played a handful of minutes in the first team.
It's a disgrace!!!
Dimitar Berbatov on his own up front, hmm.
Was about to stick £20 on United, then I saw the team. Not confident at all with Berbatov leading the line, with Young in behind him. How has Young played in that position in the past?
Since Berbs is playing, someone has to have the seat of disappointment.
It's the safe choice. For as long as Gibson's still here we will make use of him. Morrison's the future and his time will surely come. Hope he can stay patient in the meanwhile though. He's definitely getting closer.
Gibbo in the background!

Or rather a player who has no future at the club who is on the bench instead of a young and really promising talent.
I don't understand the constant bashing of Gibson. He did alright last season. Not worse than Fletch has done this season so far.
Get in! Berba start. Expect good things from him today. You read it here first.
We are going to see Berbatov whining and throwing his arms up at his team-mates no sooner than 10 mins into the match
You must be very happy to see him back, as you mention him a lot in your posts. Do you think he will become a regular at United?
I have to admit I have a bit of fatigue from backing Gibson last season, but if he's not just going to be sold asap, then I think he's fine to give time to as a back-up. Certainly more polished than Morrison.
Though if we were playing Barca, better to try Morrison than watch Gibson play a training cone. But with any other team he could hold his own.

Not a huge fan of that line up, is Rooney injured?
Yeah, didn't train.
No.
We're going to hammer them.
