West Ham United vs Manchester United [30/Nov/2010]

Its a very attack minded midfield. No-one will want to sit and hold in the centre while Obertan and Bebe can both be very naive defensively

Knowing how bad West Ham can be, O'Shea may do holding midfield and right back.
 
You rate his crossing?

Wingers don't have to be good at crossing. Especially given Obertan, Giggs, Anderson and Hernandez suit multi-positional football to a tee.

Ronaldo and Messi aren't particularly good crossers of the ball yet play wonderfully well in a similar position.

Walcott plays as a 'winger' and has shown he can be devestating from there, on the rare occasion. I'd imagine we're hoping that Bebe can play the role somewhat similarly.
 
Shame Morrison's not involved at all... or is he injured or something?

Was hoping he might build on his, er, limited opportunity in the previous round!

This. I would have liked to see him involved.

Still, good team with plenty of talent and youth.

really look forward to see him actually in action. Keep hearing about his potential and starting to get itchy about it

I agree, he would be more effective from the left rather than the right. But it is going to be one of Bebe or Obertan on the right, and neither are most effective here. When have I ever seen Bebe not play on the right? Only once, and he was better on the left, but just his type of play and crossing technique should not be used on the right.
 
What on earth!? Arsenals lineup is bizarre :

Arsenal: Szczesny, Eboue, Koscielny, Djourou, Gibbs, Walcott, Denilson, Wilshere, Vela, Bendtner, van Persie.

:eek:

Their either going to really really hammer them or be really poor.
 
Hope Eikrem gets a bit longer than Morrison did against Wolves.

I reckon it'll be Obertan behind Hernandez, at least to start off with. Nothing stopping Fergie from starting Obertan up top and Bebe on the wing, then swapping them round.

So Wigan's either going to capitulate or knick it, what's the change there?
