Bolton Wanderers vs. Manchester United

Be interesting to see if we can be as creative with both Rooney and Ronaldo missing. Giggs has been in better form lately; looking for a big game from him today.
 
OH well

We'll probably see a cagey match for the first 20, and then Anelka could put one past us, wake us up, only for us to scrape 1 before the end of the half, and struggle to get a second.

Contrariwise, we could put 5 straight into their net in the space of 30 minutes ;)

You've pretty much covered everything there :smirk:
 
If anyone should be benched after the last matches it should be Hargreaves.
Anderson has been brilliant and does not deserve to be benched.

I'd have loved to see Carrick - Anderson duo

Absolutely.
 
TEAM NEWS Bolton v Man Utd
Manchester United's Cristiano Ronaldo is being rested for the trip to the Reebok Stadium, while Nemanja Vidic is ruled out with a back problem. Meanwhile, Bolton's Danny Guthrie is preferred to Gary Speed by manager Gary Megson, who still seeking his first win in charge.
 
Yeah, bloody shite aint it? :nono:

We're missing 5 definite first team players there, and our best midfielder has mysteriously been benched.

Also, it's a team of players who can't be used to playing with each other.

Risky stuff me thinks.

Unless Bolton play like they have been against us recently, in which case we'll have it rapped up by half time

Eagles? Fletch?

Cuz the last time I check, our best midfielder is not even in the 16-list
 
I think Sir Alex is saving Dong for the CL Final
 
Risky team selection. But it should be good enough.
Time for Nani to step up.
 
Not too happy with the starting lineup. If we can't have Rooney or Ronaldo then I'd prefer to have Anderson in there to provide some sparks. It's all on Nani now. This is a big game for him. He does not have Ronaldo to overshadow him and with Giggs probably tucking into midfield he will be our only true winger playing today.

Big test for Pique as well.

I reckon we'll start slow, might even concede the first goal, then get things together in the 2nd half when Fergie puts Anderson on.
 
Although I would have preferred to see Anderson and Ronaldo, I dont worry. As long as our players play at their best
 
If bolton get tight to Carrick and Hargreaves it could be a scrappy game.
 
Come on United
