Stoke City v Manchester United

feck that's a great line-up, wouldn't have minded seeing Giggsy but SAF is obviously saving his experience for the CL match. Delighted to see both Nani and Valencia starting, and Scholes deserves to start, he's been great so far this season.

Looking forward to this.
I predict a good win.
 
Ben, evra, rio, vidic, o shea, Valencia, fletcher, scholes, nani, berb and Rooney.
 
who are stoke's central midfielders ?
hope scholes isnt muscled out of it

Whats the likely hood of picking up a virus whilst watching the game through a stream, its just i'm using my dads computer and he will kill me if i do.
 
after all the talk about rios fitness, good to see him playing this one. It's a positive team so i'm going for 1-3. Rooney x2 Berbatov
 
they are playing 4-5-1 with 3 central midfielders and kitson upfront
 
Had tickets for this but Nan was taken ill and looking after my little brother. Sold them though. Hopefully get a good stream.
 
Although we are going with 2 wingers, I don't think we will be playing too many crosses into the box, considering the defenders they have. I think our game will be about cutting infield from the wings, wingers bringing the ball to the touchline close to goal and cutting back, and playing it cute through the middle though that would be a very congested area.
 
And we will seriously need to cut out deadball chances for them. Their players are quite all rather big except for Etherington.
 
What does Owen need to do to get a Premier League start!?
 
Stoke without Fuller and Beattie makes it easier for us - no doubt about it
 
I'm starting to find it a bit strange how we are using our wingers. We seem to be using both of our true wingers (Nani and Valencia) in one game, then neither in the next as we go for some combination of Giggs, Fletcher, Park or Anderson. Then the next game we use them both, then neither in the following.

You'd think that if we are going to alternate them like that, we'd have one in there each match. But, other than the Burnley match, we've been getting the results.
