How about a 0-2 win with:

-----------VDS--------------
--Neville--Rio--Brown--Evra--
Ronaldo--O'Shea--Giggs--Park
----------Saha--Ole---------
 
1-2 United

Edwin

Brown Rio Mickey Evra

Park O'Shea Carrick? Giggs

Saha Ronaldo

Charlton lost their first game. They might want to make amends at home, so really can't see us having a comfortable game. Gary could be out with that calf injury. Here's hoping Carrick can make it, compensating Scholes's absence. It's a shame Rooney can't play. I'll be happy with any 3 points till Scholes and Rooney return.
 
I was watching prem plus today and the presenter said the game was on sky sports? But on the sky sports website it doesnt say anything about it being on. Anyone know whether its televised?
 
----------VDS-----------
Gaz----Rio----Wes---Evra
Ron--O'shea--Giggs--Park
------Saha---Ole--------

3-0 United
Saha, Ole, Ronaldo
 
How about if SAF throws D Jones in place of Scholes? Wouldn't mind see him being given a chance.

Also I would expect Rossi to make the bench? I'm sure he will come on at some stage. I don't want to get too excited about the Fulham game - Let's hope the boys keep their focus up and play the same way as they did today.
 
My preferred formation:

van der Sar
Neville Ferdinand Brown Heinze(?)/Evra
Park O'Shea Giggs Ronaldo
Rossi Saha

2-0 to United - Saha, Giggs.

I'd go with that, as long as Gary is fit and Carrick is not.

If Carrick is fit I'd play him alongside O'Shea, with Giggs on the left. If Gary is unfit, Wes at Right back and Heinze at CB if fit.

Might be a tough game, I'm going for a 2-2
 
I would start Rossi instead of Ole. Ole didn't look 100% today.
 
I don't think Ole will start..

Rossi won't play for Christ's sake, Ronnie will play as a striker, mark my words.

No need to get him involved...(Christ that is)

Heinze will be out for another few weeks.

Sry, didn't realise he was a scouser :lol: Naah I'm just kiddin', I'm Christian myself.
 
I think Bent and Hasselbaink may pose som serious threats. Otherwise, they've got nothing compared to us really.

Missing Rooney and Scholes is massive, if it was just one of them i wouldn't be worried but with both of them out we can't replace them who ever comes in.

Fingers crossed tho Saha and Ronaldo will carry on from sunday and grad us three points, Richardson should be given another start.

Cant see there being too many goals in this game.

Hopefully Carrick should be back.

Carrick to play against Charlton? I read he would be able to play as late as the Watford game :nono:
 
I'd go with:

---------VDS---------
Gaz--Wes--Rio--Evra
----O'shea-Giggs----
Ronnie---------Kieran
-----Rossi---Saha----

We'd still have lots of pace and movement in the team, similarly to the Fulham game, and after watching Charlton on Saturday I think a bit of pace and movement off the ball can do the trick for us again.
