Can we not just get Collina for every game we play from now on?

Best ref in the world IMO.

Over-rated. Way over-rated. Watch him in Serie A and see him give away penalties for free.

Forlan should play IMO and Ruud could well do with a rest.

Shouldnt we be taking this game seriously?

No disrespect to old sally but he's not really built for the lone striker role, which presuambly fergie will play.
This game is certainly a big one for us, it's crucial to see if we can bounce back from the arse game. I think if we go ahead by a big margine, i.e 3-0, then we can take ruud off, but we cant rest key players because bolton arent a top premiership side. Like said, this is there cup final and they will be up for it like never before, resting players isnt a wise idea IMO.

Of course we should. But if we don't trust Ole and Diego to produce against a team like Bolton then we are in trouble. It's not like I'm talking about resting four or five players.

We have Juve away on Tuesday and then the WC final on Sunday. Ruud will without doubt (if fit of course) play both.

We can't play our best elven players every match. Sure, in the short run it's a great idea but soon we'll see tired players. Resting players every now and then is very important if you want to be successful.

Odd getting used to these 7am games. Gonna try staying up late then getting up early and going back to bed after the game this time. Must be annoying for you guys out in the West having it at 4am all the time.
Reckon OLE or Forlan will start tomorrow though with Ruud as sub. Think Giggs might be given a rest too with Butt fit and ready to go. Butt needs more games so can see Fergie giving him a full 90min tomorrow.
O'Shea Rio Wes and GNev are obvious choices. Sorry Larry but your time is up. Thanks pour the memories but the buzz words round OT these days is "move on".
I'd like to see Scholes and Forlan start with either Ruud or OLE coming on later on. Would make sense with Tuesday getting closer (and ESPN showing the game live).
As usual, can't wait. Edgey and clock watching.
Prediction.....4-0 United
:cool:

Didn't go to bed until 4 this morning, yet still woke up at the usual time for going to work. Turned over to try and get back to sleep yet couldn't stop thinking about the game. 1 bloody hour staring at the ceiling before I gave up and decided to get up. I'm knackered as well.

Anyhow.

Why? Surely given the way your team is headed you'd want us to do you a favour? ;)
