We need a win here, claw some ground back between us and them. Bring Arsenal back down to earth and Moyes finally to win a big game.​
3-1, Rooney, Van Persie and Januzaj to score for us.​

2-1 United : RvP & Januzaj for the winner :drool:
 
Big test for Moyes. Will he go for a safe lineup like he did in all the big matches so far or will he show a bit of balls.

Hopefully Giggs, Rio and Young are nowhere near the starting 11.

feck that, at home against Arsenal? We've bullied them for years, we shouldn't change that now that Sir Alex is gone. We've still got a better team and squad regardless of form or them getting Ozil. It'll be a closer game then before but we should win it.
 
If we have no injuries in Dortmund(fat chance) our team will be: Szczesny, Gibbs, Koscielny, Mertesacker, Sagna, Ramsey, Arteta, Ozil, Cazorla, Rosicky/Walcott, Giroud.
 
I think Moyes will start with 3 in midfield to be on the safe side.

De Gea

Rafael
Vidic
Evans
Evra

Carrick
Jones
Cleverley

Valencia
RvP
Rooney

Rafael
Evans

RVP.
 
This is the team I hope you pick, and the formation.

De Gea

Buttner, Evans, Vidic, Smalling

Cleverley, Jones,

Young, Kagawa, Rooney,

Fellaini
 
---------------- De Gea -----------------
Rafael ----- Evans --- Vidic ----- Evra
---------- Carrick -- Cleverley --------
Nani ----------- Rooney ------ Januzaj
--------------- Van Persie --------------

Hopefully Nani gets the nod because of his previous against Arsenal. Januzaj should play, hopefully from the start. Praying Rafael and Carrick are back for this.

Surely Januzaj is nailed on for this?

He's probably one of the first names on the team sheet these days if it's a big game, he just can't play 3 times a week yet (well probably can, but we don't want him to burn out). Definitely needs to start though.

Arsenal should tear apart that United line up, but they have a habit of not turning up at OT.

For the first time in as long as I can remember I want United to win though, as if we can beat WBA at home we will only be 2 behind them again!

Going for 2-1.

Arsenal should tear apart what United lineup? Any one we put out or a particular one? Why should they tear us apart? Are you new to football?

Well pretty much any line up, they are playing some great football and United are playing Fellaini ( although I expect him not to start this one).

On form thats how it should go and contrasts to how the two clubs have gone in one year, but I have this feeling it'll be another case of a missed chance for Arsenal, hence why im going for Rooney to have a stormer and United to win 2-1.

RVP and Hernandez to come on if we're struggling. Jones/Fellaini if we're trying to kill the game off.

EDIT:
Let's fight fire with fire. The lineup above is arguably our most mobile starting XI.

With the exception of Adnan that line up are all PL champions 6 months ago. You shit
 
I think we can maybe guess who'll be in and out of the Arsenal match based on tonight.

Vidic and Ferdinand I think were given game time to get them tuned up, ditto Kagawa and Fellaini. Januzaj rested. Giggs played as he'll play no part Sunday with the same being said about Hernandez. I also think maybe the intention was (and perhaps still is) to play Young given he was the go-to sub with RVP get them game time.

Yeah, Moyes has used substitutions to give midweek minutes to players starting at the weekend.

I'd say there's a good chance he will. Especially if you look at how Moyes has given minutes to subs before they've started the following game.

He won't start. It will be Januzaj on the left and Nani or Valencia on the right.
