Obertan ---- Gibson ---------- Anderson ----- Tosic
------------ (Eikrem) ------------------------------
----------- Welbeck ---------- Macheda -----------

Bench: Kuszczak, Neville, De Laet, C.Evans, Eikrem (James), Owen, King

I'd personally start that team but with Kuszczak for Foster. I want Owen to play too but Welbeck/Macheda both need minutes.
 
Team should be...

GK: PIG

RB: Neville
CB: Brown
CB: Evans
LB: Fabio

RM: Obertan
CM: Gibson
CM: Anderson
LM: Nani

CF: Owen
CF: Macheda

Can see back to back defeats and our exit from this competition :(

Bit of a depressing cnut arent ya
 
Been looking forward to this one for a while. I have high hopes for the Carling Cup this year.

I hope Eikrem plays in this game at some point. Impressed me every time I've seen him for the reserves this season.

Wold love to see Obertan and Tosic also. and I hope Welbeck gets a game up front.

De Laet is not very good at centre-half, and Nani should start on the right.
 
Kuszczak
Neville Brown Evans Fabio
Welbeck Gibson Anderson Nani
Macheda Owen​

from what I've seen of him in the reserves he's not too shabby. Plus I think Obertan is an exciting prospect and should be given his chance
 
ben hibbs says that the boss says obertan is starting

there ..
 
It's going to be tricky for SAF to pick a side with so many promising players pushing for a position. I have no idea what lineup will be sent out.
 
Any news on the squad etc..


According to the Manchester Evening News, this is the squad we're sending over the border...

Kuszczak, Foster, De Laet, Neville, Brown, J Evans, Dudgeon, Fabio, Rafael, Tosic, Gibson, C Evans, Eikrem, Carrick, Fletcher, Scholes, Valencia, Nani, Owen, Welbeck, Macheda, King.
 
Boy i hope he plays, was looking forward to see him play. Love these games so can some of the younger players show us their talent.

Who? Not heard that name before?

We all know that SAF likes to blend experience with youth in these games. So i'd imagine Owen/Neville/Evans/Brown and Fletcher will all start.

Joe Dudgeon, very promising looking left back. Likes to get forward but has a crunching tackle as well, i've always been impressed when he plays and he's the main reason why Fabio has been playing right back in the reserves.
 
Hopefully we can get some confirmation on Oberton as i really thought he would play a part.
 
I really hope to see Tosic this time...



Kuszczak

Rafael • Brown • J. Evans • Fabio

Welbeck • Gibson • Anderson • Tosic

Owen • Macheda​

Substitutes:
Foster
De Laet
Neville
Scholes
Eikrem
Nani
King


Should be more than enough to be Barnsley. 0-2 United, Welbeck and Gibson to score.
