Wigan v Manchester United

I know Neville needs game time, but that is one substitute sorted out before kick off. Just like Wes came off in midweek.

I'd sooner see OShea or Fabio.
 
The XI

Foster

Gazza
Vidic
Evans
Evra

Valencia
Scholes
Fletcher
Nani

Berbatov
Rooney

Wow, I wasn't expecting that. Some would say Fergie has lost the plot by bringing Paul Gascoigne out of retirement and playing him at right back, but I think this is a Fergie masterstroke!
 
Never thought id say it but im happy Carrick has been dropped, i think he really needs a kick up the backside because hes been poor in preseason and even during towards the end of last season - i think his last great game was vs inter away last season
 
good to see Nani back too, Park was absolutely dire against Burnley.
 
I think (apart from injuries) this is close to most people's idea of our best XI.

Very interesting to see how we get on - especially how we start. We need to quickly move on from the midweek performance. I nice early goal ought to do it...
 
That team should be able to do the job against Wigan. If it doesn't, then we know we have a major problem.

Come on United!
 
Good lineup. I've would have like to see Fabio, just love the way he plays...
 
People are slacking with the Match Day these days.

I know the match won't be shown "live" but after the Arsenal match on Canl + Sport.I'm ognna try to look for decent streams, if not i'm gonna shut myself off and watch it "live" anyway :lol:
 
In Madrid I guess.

Seriously, what's with Carrick? Poor against Burnley, doesn't even make a bench in two of three matches.

I'm guessing they've been dropped for playing a bit shit. And rightly so if I'm honest, I like all 3 players but they need to step it up.

Wheres Anderson, Carrick, Park?

They were all very poor against Burnley. Is Fergie trying to lay down a ruthless early season mesage? Play badly and you're out of the squad.
