Apparently there will now be no women at the match due to the lack of Phil Jones. Flood warnings have ceased in Hull.

No Buttner at all. Hopefully this means we may finally see Fabio.
Fabio over Buttner!
Seriously, Valencia? He's bombproof. And any need in dropping Januzaj?
It's called squad rotation.
Fletcher 
Would be nice to see Fabio get some minutes, and great that Carrick is nearing a return to action.

Our bench is looking great today.
- super to see Fletch
- even better to see Carrick back
Be another bonus to have Fabio get some game time. Our midfield is either gonna dominate or be slapped today. Should be interesting. Rooney will be exhausted at the end.

Yes, exactly this. I've heard some people talk about adman getting burnout, but he won't do the way moyes is managing him. He might be good enough to start every match, but he's not going to because we don't want a sterling or Wilshere To happen to him.
Not too confident about today. Hull's defensive record at home is incredible - whatever happens I expect it will be tight and low scoring, and we've not been great at eaking out goals against solid defenses. I've got visions of 0-0 or 1-1 with 10 minutes to go, and us bricking it and conceding a stupid winner.
Not sure who you were replying to, but always playing Valencia in every match is called squad rotation?
I answered regarding "dropping Januzaj".
Really rate Rooney and Welbeck together, hopefully they can link up well today. Great to see Fletcher start.
Great to see Fletch start. A proper midfielder in midfield.
Jones out a couple weeks with knee injury
I think this one has come too early for Fletch, I'm not sure he won't be off the pace. I hope I'm wrong.
Remarkable story.
The wings worry me. Not good enough, although I understand Moyes' thought process behind it. Hopefully Rafa and Pat do some good work to compensate for it.
I love the defence. For me, it's my first choice for while Vidic remains inconsistent with his fitness. Buzzed to see Fletch back in the side, too. The bench is also excellent. Hopefully we make light work of this.

Know what you're saying but reckon since Moyes sees him everyday in he will have a better idea of where he is.
Jones out a couple weeks with knee injury
Oh FFS!!
Very pleased for Fletcher, as well as Fabio.
Well the problem is, who else can we put there? Fletcher slowly starts to come back then Carrick, Felliani and Jones get injured. We can't win!
Jones out a couple weeks with knee injury
I would love to know how many injuries they are picking up in training. Maybe they need to tone it down a bit.
If Jones isn't injuring himself he's injuring someone else.
Fletch!
Carrick back, Jones out
Sigh. When we will ever have a full midfield to choose from, let alone the whole squad

Valencia and young together. Sigh.
Oh feck off they're easily good enough.
Great to see Fletcher starting again! His return is perfectly timed, along with Carrick's. It's a shame we have to lose more players as well.
Good team though.
Good team though.
Yep I agree, Ole/moyes myhero but I don't think a coach can truly know until he sees how a player copes with the challenging of performing at this level combined with match day adrenaline. Again I hope I'm wrong but I have an uneasy feeling.
Totally agree, I just disagree with the sentiment that this is definitely good news.
Stop whining over who starts and who misses out. Everyone's going to get a chance over these next three games. Young's in today, which means Januzaj/Kagawa plays the next one.
Do calm down, princess.
They're good enough but I prefer seeing one of our three more technically gifted wide players (Januzaj, Nani and Kagawa) start.
Hope we're not taking them too lightly with that line up
Great that he's recovered but IMHO, Fletcher starting is anothet huge step backwards. I pity who ever has to partner him in midfield.
Amazing how people talk at the start of the season about using the squad in this busy Christmas period and as soon as it happens, they throw their toys out of the pram.
Hull playing with five defenders?
It's just boring hearing everyone complain when their most favoritest players aren't picked.
Jones out for a couple of weeks with a knee injury according to The Guardian.
Strong enough line up to me. Would love to see Rooney on the goal sheet. He is due a goal somehow.
It wouldn't be match day without a little moan from you
