Hmm...
Or 451 with Rooney left and Gibson central, which would be better
We're going 4-3-3. Rooney on the flank.
Couldn't Fletcher have played on the right?!
Gibson? So he's going to be playing on the right? Or are we going to end up playing with nobody on the right 
Or Anderson on the left.
I think he was being serious. Football fans.....
We'll be playing three in the middle with Giggs, Rooney and Berbatov up front. Rooney and Giggs switching flanks.
Sounds like a 4-3-3 with Giggs and Rooney flanking the Berbmeister.
The thing I like about Gibson is that he guarantees quite a few shots on target - you can say a lot about him but a few of our players have a bit to learn there
I'm guessing it's sort of 4-3-1-2 ish with Giggs probably roaming a bit.
Shhhoooooot!!!
Incredibly harsh if we're playing him on the wing again, hopefully it's 4-5-1 with Rooney left.
Front three of Rooney, berbatov and giggs?
When is Scholes back, miss the ginger magician?
The fog:

The bright light is possibly Mame Diouf's angelic hands reaching down to cleanse the fog.

Yes, trust me guys, I'm very intelligent.
With all the fog maybe Gibson will hit a stealth screamer into the top corner. Or row Z. one of those 2.
Probably see Rooney right, Anderson supporting Berbatov ... just guessing.

Van Der Sar, Rafael, Ferdinand, Vidic, Evra, Gibson, Carrick, Anderson, Rooney, Berbatov, Giggs
He will probably kill a human or two in these conditions. Not safe at all playing him.

This. It won't be the first time we've played an away game with no one on one of our wings this season.
Hope Gibson proves my wrong but I don't have much faith in Mr. Shoot on Sight.
Hope he's not played on the wing
Great.

Yes, let's play the one who can actually pass out of position and give Gibson the middle spot.
Still enough on that team to see off bloody Brum. Chill !
Rooney, Berba, Anderson, Giggs, Rafael, Vida, Rio, Evra. All capable of slapping them around.

If we're playing 4-4-2, I'd rather Obertan played on the right than Gibson.
But if we're playing 4-3-3, then okay.

Gibson to score, you heard it here first
Don't suppose there's any chance of people not acting like utter cnuts about Gibson for 90 minutes, is there?
He's a United player after all and hasn't started a game in ages. Maybe we should give him the chance to impress, without making our minds up about him before a ball's been kicked?

From Birmingham forum
If you merged Blues and United. What would be the XI?Message ListGary Rowett18:17, Tuesday 28 December 2010.........................Foster
Carr............Johnson.........Ferdinand.......Evra
Nani............Ferguson........Hleb............Giggs
..................Jerome......Berbatov
Subs? Is Nani in the squad.
Diamond formation? The onus will be on the full backs... Rafael and Evra are more than good enough in an attacking sense.
It's unfortunate though because teams like Birmingham are very difficult to break down down the middle of the pitch and we don't seem to have a great deal of natural width in this team.

Its called anti jinxing him Pogue...
Subs; Neville, Hernandez, Evans, Fletcher, Obertan, Macheda, Kuszczak
maybe I'm in minority but I thought Gibson was decent against Sunderland when he came on.
It's bollocks mate. The harsh thing is that he has actually done okay when you look at his United career so far.
Let's wait until 10 and then see if Gibson deserves this..
Gibson is criminally under-rated on here. Its almost as if, its the cool thing to say he shit.
