Barclays Premiership
1st January 2008
Old Trafford
KO: 15.00 GMT
 
If we play 4-5-1 I will kill someone.

We MUST play Anderson, with Tevez and Rooney UPFRONT, not left wing.
 
Team should be

VDS
O'Shea Rio Vidic Evra
Ronaldo Hargreaves Anderson Nani
Rooney? Saha

PIG, Brown, Giggs, Tevez, Carrick

Brown has played 90 min the last three games so he will probably rest. Giggs won't start and I would like to see Saha get another chance. Tevez looks tired atm.
 
Got a feeling we'll see some players rested in this one...

GK: PIG

RB: O'Shea
CB: Ferdinand
CB: Vidic
LB: Evra

RM: Park
CM: Hargreaves
CM: Anderson
LM: Nani

CF: Tevez
CF: Rooney

Subs: Heaton, Pique, Carrick, Ronaldo, Saha

Even with players rested though we should have enough, especially at home. 3-0 Rooney x 2 and Tevez
 
PIG
Brown
Rio
Vida
Evra
Ronaldo
Carrick
Anderson
Nani
Rooney
Saha

Sub: Tevez. Pique, O'Shea, Heaton, Park

Back at OT. Lets smash them to pieces.

4-0 Rooney (2), Ronaldo, Anderson


Not being sarcy, but honestly when is Neville returning now. I thought he was training with the first XI.

Apparently to all extensive proposes he is back, SAF just wants to give him reserve games before putting him back in the first team.
 
------------------VDS (?)--------------

Brown--------Rio---------Vida-------Evra

CR7--------ANDERSON---Carrick-----Giggs

--------------Rooney----Tevez/Saha------


After today's performance i really dont care wether teveth or saha starts, all I want is that ANDERSON, for hecks sake ANDERSON, starts.
 
The team should be:

VDS(?)
Brown Rio Vidic Evra
Ronnie Hargreaves Anderson Nani
Tevez Rooney

Subs: PIG/Heaton, O'Shea, Carrick, Park, Saha.


Let's smash them to bits.

saha can feck off....he good only off the bench
 
Just put a playmaker on the starting line up ffs.

Anderson/Hargreaves on midfield.
 
so you would prefer saha than having tevez who runs his ass off for the team or rooney ? saha gets lazy and does not track back when needed to

Yu said he is only good off the bench, which is unture. Saha plays as the target man, so he need not track back.

I prefer the rooney-tevez partnership.

4-4-2 works best with rooney and tevez with a strong midfield with giggs and ronaldo as wingers and anderson and scholes/hardreaves/carrick in midfield...fletch can warm the fecking bench...defence is allright
 
According to manutd.com, Rooney will be back.
 
need a convincing win to get back our confidence.
 
I´d like to see Park start this one.

------------VDS
Brown --- Rio --- Vidic --- Evra
Park - Hargreaves - Anderson - Ronaldo
----------Tevez - Rooney
 
Here is a novel idea:

VDS

Brown
Rio
Vidic
Evra

Giggs
Anderson
Hargreaves
Ronaldo

Rooney
Tevez

4-4-2 - go for the fecking jugular!

Personally I would go with this one. Ronaldo, Vidic, Evra, Brown need a break. Brummies will play with 5 midfielders, so it's important to match them. Fletcher and Hargreaves have proved they can play as a partnership and Giggs always looks good tucked in. Tevez is good coming off the left flank and Saha, the work horse, can win headers up front all day. Park needs a run and Simpson is good back up for right back.

:nervous::mad::wenger::nono::confused::wenger::eek:
Oh well you have been sarcastic, have missed that for a second, my bad.
 
McLeish is an astute manager and will have noted the way you didn't defend well from our set pieces...if there's ever a time for Rio and Vidic to show how good they are, it might be in this next game.

Good luck lads, and a happy new year to one and all.
 
Ronaldo would be itching to go for goal. And he will get a goal if he plays IMO.
 
Ronaldo must play and hopefully score goals as well to get over the penalty miss disappointment.

Will be shocked if Birmingham score in this one to be honest
