Aston Villa Vs. Manchester United

Really looking forward to this. Hopefully i'll get a decent stream.

I reckon we'll go for:

Code:
[CENTER]VDS
Brown Evans Vidic Evra
Scholes
Fletcher Carrick
Nani [COLOR="Silver"]--[/COLOR] Rooney [COLOR="Silver"]--[/COLOR] Giggs[/CENTER]

If we go 4-4-2 i'd rather we played either Diouf or Owen up top with Rooney rather than Dimi.

Spot on, that'd be my first choice.

Can't see Vidic starting though.

Neither could i but SSN have him in their predicted line up so maybe they know something we don't. If not then Rafael on the right and Wes in the middle with Jonny.

I think theres a sneaky chance that we will play Anderson for this match. He hasn't featured lately and he wants to step up, this is the match to do it for me.

If all the recent rumours are true i don't imagine seeing him start for a while yet.
 
Am hoping Vida plays tomorrow - because if he does, I' want Brown to start on the right and give some experience against the interchanging Young / Downing.

Pics of squad training before Villa game. Vida and Ando are there but, may not mean much as both were in the pics last week.

If Vida is going to play against Milan, he needs at least one game under his belt before then.

We kick off 15 min before Chelski - need to put a win on the board and perhaps put some pressure on them. Remember us at Goodison 2-0 down and them playing Bolton at home - our come back had an effect or so it seemed.

Thx, Rio seems quite skeptical about Vidic's skills :lol:

I dont' know, but almost everytime, Anderson usually steps up for this match.

Hmmm i'm not sure. I can't see any reason to justify him playing instead of either Fletch, Scholes or Carrick.

That's a great team if it is correct, but I had hoped Berbatov would start. Villa will probably sit back so we don't need VDS, 4-5-2 will do.

That's more what I was expecting. Just wasn't sure about Park or Giggs but pleased with that. Still no Anderson, and Foster on the bench...

I'm glad they don't have Carew playing with us not having Vidic back. Interesting they've given Delph a start too,
