Barnsley vs. Manchester United

Fergie has never played 352, I doubt he's gonna start now.

Odd team selection, mind you, no idea how it works.

Even if it was "352", I don't see how it would work as Obertan and Welbeck aren't central midfielders in any way least far as I can see.
 
Interesting team selection. Somehow I expect Obertan and Anderson to be in midfield with Rafael and Welbeck on the wings. Owen and Macheda up front. Obertan can play left, right or centre. Tonight I expect him to attack from the middle and use his vision to create for the strikers.
 
I know Fabio and Rafael played at the same time against Peterborough, but Fabio came on at half time where as Rafael started.

Didn't they both play in the FA Cup against spurs?

Welbeck and Fabio starred in that match.. but I can't remember Rafael featuring.
 
4-3-3?

G Nev -- Wesley -- Evans -- Fabio

--Rafael - Anderson - Obertan --

-- DW ----- Owen ----- Kiko
 
Gotta be Anderson and Obertan in CM.

Maybe one of the twins playing on the wing?

Feck me though, it's one hell of an attacking team!

I remember Fergie saying that Obertan could play left right or through the middle. I assume he meant up front but Its surely got to be him in CM today with Rafael left wing
 
This is my guess:

Foster
Neville Brown Evans Fabio
Rafael Obertan Anderson Welbeck
Owen Macheda​
 
My guess is Neville and Anderson in midfield. The rest of the team picks itself.

Gary in midfield, where he started off his career before the likes of Scholes, Butt and that cockney boy called Beckham shoved him to right back.

Could be the Roy Keane figure everyone keeps banging on about that we need...or perhaps not.
 
Foster
Rafael-Neville-Brown-Evans-Fabio
Anderson
Welbeck-Macheda-Owen-Obertan​

Maybe my 3-5-2 was a little too polite to Barnsley. Maybe its a new look 5-1-4.
 
Anyone else get the feeling that Fergie's finally tired of our inability so far this season (besides Wigan) to put teams away? That he's just picked as attacking a line-up as possible to theoretically rack up a cricket as a warning to the first-teamers who aren't scoring... "These lads are knocking on the door"?
 
Neville
