Derby County vs. Manchester United

no point in fecking around with the line-up, just put the strongest team out there and kill the game off asap, we can't afford to miss the chance to take the lead at this stage of the season. Imagine the relief on wenger's face if we didn't do the business tomorrow, it'd be massive gift by us.
 
14th March 2008,

Manchester United are set to rest several big name players including Cristiano Ronaldo, Owen Hargreaves, Paul Scholes, Nani, Micheal Carrick, Patrice Evra, Wes Brown, Wayne Rooney, Rio Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidic against Derby on Saturday.

"We're going to leave most of the first team behind to rest" Ferguson said.

"I haven't finalised the squad yet, but Ronaldo and Rooney definitely won't be taking part. Neither will Rio and Vidic".

“Carrick, Hargo, Scholesy, Wes and Patrice are also due for a rest”.

United could also be without goalkeeper Edwin Van Der Sar who is still recovering from an injury suffered against Portsmouth in the FA Cup.

“Edwin will travel to Derby, but we'll only use him if he's a hundred percent. We have some important games coming up and now is not the time to take any risks".

Anderson is also out for nine months after tearing his ACL in training.

:lol:

You bastard. Scared the shit out of me for a moment.
 
It seems Saha will start tomorrow from Fergie's comments.

Tevez or Rooney to be on bench. First choice defence.

Midfield is a dilemma.

I think Park can start this one and we can have Nani on bench.

Foster wont have too much trouble in my opinion but we want a cleen sheet.
 
Can you imagine on here if we get beat today.....

we'll have another record number of users online, about 59 threads on Hargreaves, 24 on Fergie, 5 on infractions due to insults, 3-4 bannings. Next day Manucho will score in Greece and everything will go back to normal.
 
I don't know what you are worrying about.

Derby are really really really really shit.
 
£50 on United

There is no way we can lose...

i don't have setanta , in Hungary and Romania Eurosport2 shows the Epl
 
I'm working from 12 until 3 tomorrow morning. I'm not going to get any football fix at all - except for the odd text update. Gutted.
 
Gonna miss this due to work. Recording it though.. Keep the matchday clean please I check this on my mobile. REFRESH!
 
Saha doubtful according to BBC
 
I think that we should send a balanced side while giving some match practice to our reserves/long term absentees. If Gaz, Foster and Saha are available then they should play.
 
Could be a tricky one. But if the lads are focused this should not be a problem...
 
----------------------- Foster -----------------------
Brown ------- Pique --------------- Vidic -------- Evra
