Yeah I know where you are coming from. I just feel his forward play has been below par for a while
Green kits.
If he starts then it will be in a Ozil type role, i imagine. Would give better type of marking of Alonso, than Rooney or Kagawa probably.
None, just doing it to wind all you Jonny foreigners up.
Yep. This.
What I'd like
What will probably happen
DDG
Rafael - Rio - Evans - Evra
Carrick - Cleverley
Kagawa
Nani - RvP - Rooney

I can't even tell if I'm feeling confident or not. One minute I think we should do it, next minute I feel they're going to beat us 3-0. Last time Madrid came to Old Trafford I was 14 and full of hope, then they knocked us out comfortably.
That tie was lost on their patch, tbf.
I hate that this is only a last 16 tie!!
The tension and build up makes me want it to be a semi final or the actual final

It's a penis with a piercing, duh.
I was 14, I didn't know.
Ronaldo won that tie.
I think he was being sarcastic.
Does anyone else feel Ronaldo is destined to score?
I know what you mean, I want more European nights this season.
Just feels with the effort that its going to take to win this match and the magnitude of the occasion, winning this game should get us a final. Instead it's just for a place in the quarter final.
In an hour's time, we'll know the starting eleven.
Shit, I missed Eastenders last night.
I'll watch that now whilst waiting.

Off to the pub, good luck y'all.
If Nani starts we'll win. And i'm quite sure he will.
If he doesn't we'll probably still win come to think about it...so yeah.

If Real score in the first 15 mins...we doomed...fellas...we're dooooooommmmmmeddddddd
I don't think he would at all. Even since his recent return to form, his defensive work is extremely slack. He'll trail his man for a little while and then surreptitiously give up on him. To claim that he'd do a better job of making Alonso's life difficult than Rooney or Kagawa, both of whom are known for having an excellent work-rate, is very far wide of the mark.
If he had to start, I'd rather he be on the wing. From there he can make his positive contributions - excellent passes, little flicks and tricks and those occasional 'rolling back the years' mazy runs - without his lack of consistent positional and defensive discipline compromising us too badly. But then, again, you'd have to ask whether he's a sensible option ahead of Nani, Welbeck or Kagawa.
Just to give us all something else to worry about... who in our squad risks missing the next match if they get a yellow today?
Rafael and RVP, I believe.
Was such a stupid yellow for RVp last game. Ramos the cnut.
No Jonesey?
Real have arrived. Ronnie gave Albert Morgan a big hug, n'awww.
Nice scenes there with Ronaldo hugging some United staff as he got off the coach.
feck me I'm pumped up for this. Classic on the way lads.

No, they never do.
There's coverage on MUTV right now for those with Sky. For a few million who haven't subscribed to it, it is free to view until the 17th.

Alan green as written us off.
What time does coverage start??
ITV are cnuts. Fortunately, MUTV is showing for me so they'll provide the necessary buildup.
Oh, for feck's sake, they interview the one Irish guy who's weird and socially awkward in front of a camera.
