We'd better not fecking take this one lightly ... I'm tired of losing to Bolton!
They also took points off Arsenal and Chelsea.

Totally agreed, I think we need to go with a full team for this one. Is Crissie back from holiday yet?

When is Ole back?

When is Ole back?
Ole phoned me the other day to tell me that he's in a reserve game on Jan 15.
He's hoping he'll be fit for the Wolves game on Jan 17.

Agree completely, it's hard to go past that team. Maybe Fortune at left back ahead of JohnO.Cal said:
Don't think Ronaldo is back yet, so it'll most likely be Kleb on the right.
Bench:
Howard
Fortune/O'Shea (whichever doesn't start)
Butt
Fletcher
Forlan
Howard is great, but surely he can't be on the pitch and the bench at the same time.MadDogg said:

Yes. Bolton seem to be the boogy team in the league. We should never take then lightly. They play very well together and they are also one of the teams with the most shots on goal in the league.

Bolton usually raises their game when they play top sides, they won 2 of the last 5 meetings with them, actually i reckon this game along with the Arsenal game on March as the most difficult places to go .
Ronaldo won't be there. Rio is a big doubt. Fergie said on MUTV yesterday that his flu is pretty bad. Phil should be back after missing yesterdays game through injury.
Is this one on Sky?
Don't forget Newcastle at the weekend:
Howard
Gary Wes Silvestre Fortune
Nicky Phil
Kleberson Scholes Giggs
Nistelrooy
Nicky could do with a consecutive game.
Carroll
Forlan
Keane
O'Shea
Ferdinand

No. Except of course MUTV Thursday night.
If Bolton would play against Boro, Soton and Wolves like they do against United, Arse and Chelski, they'd be a top 6 side IMO.
Scoring the first goal is very important, if they can keep 0-0 for the first hour we'll have to be more offensive, thus giving them every chance to score on a counter attack.
After Ronaldo's actions against Bolton at OT I'd play him if he's available. The rest of the team pretty much picks itself.

I don't mind Bolton because they take points off the Arse. But my Dad fecking hates them. I think its because of the 1958 cup final. I also hate liverpool more than man city but my dad detests city. Must be a generation thing. At least hatred still exists thats the main thing.
Bad feeling about this one

Resting Keano for a very difficult away game is a non-starter. Did you see how important he is when he came on against Villa?worring 'bout Bolton or United?Sporting FC Fan said:Bad feeling about this one
Worried about Forlan. Hope he gets a game and scores a few.
Class striker he is
Class striker he is
Howard
Gaz Rio Silvestre Fortune
Kleb Keano Phil Giggs
Scholes
Ruud
And we'll still probably lose.

That's going against the grail for you, Cal!
We'll need Keano, and there is no logic behind calls to rest him. His 40 mins on sunday was his first action since boxing day, and our next game is on a sunday.
BTw : the game is on 7th not 8th .
Agreeing with Gazza, it's a first, isn't it?Gazza said:That's going against the grail for you, Cal!

Anyway, guess we just sometimes disagree on which teams are weak. IMO Bolton are not so weak.
You're right, me bad... it's 8th Hong Kong Time.tareq abd albari said:
Can a mod do something about it?
Bolton is a potential banana skin fixture.They beat Chelski and had the Gooners on the ropes for long periods until they escaped with adraw.In fact Sam Alladyce has built up a very formidable side .What seems to amaze me isd why they can't play againaist every body else in the way they do againaist big teams. I think we should take this one seriously and field our stongest squad else we may end up loosing valuable points .I understand they ave sighned Javi Moreno last isaw him play againaist the scousers in UEFA finals he seemed to be a dangerous player i surely ope they won't field him againaist us .I cant predict the score in this one but we should beat them.Mr. Wood said:We'd better not fecking take this one lightly ...

Can't we clone him?
We might as well clone a few Keano, Scholes & Ruud at the same time.MadDogg said:

It will be on MUTV at midnight, 2 hours after the final whistle
Sporting FC Fan said:Bad feeling about this one
Will be close .But we will win!!
Bolton are missing Okocha badly.
Prediction 2-0
Cal said:
So would he not do the same coming on against Bolton?
His introduction made more difference than if he had started.
Heard on Mutv that Phil will be fit and Rio has recovered from flu.
i think Wes Brown should play against Bolton instead of Rio because he needs games to get match fit for when Rio is banned.
i think Butt should continue in midfield instead of P.Neville because he has done well recently.

Marky Sparky said:
Agreed.
Phil came in when Nicky was briefly injured and has done very well, Nicky should get the same treatment in return after replacing an injured Phil against Villa.
Anyone know if there will be a live webcast somewhere?
Play the team we would play if we were playing Arsenal or Liverpool away....this is no less a match than playing the teams I mention.Gazza said:That's going against the grail for you, Cal!

Certainly comparable to Liverpool, but not Arsenal.Red Dreams said:
Anyway, anyone got a webcast link or radio link or anything like that?
