I've often admired the advantage 3 in the middle with the wing backs giving width, and with Park and Richardson we have the pace to get behind teams, whilst still packing the midfield to cover our lack of 2 good midfielders.
So Rio sits in front, Smith backs him up and Rooney and Ronaldo supply the passes....well Rooney passes, Ronaldo carries the ball creating space.

I dunno but I'm so fecked off of seeing slow sideways lazy shite football from fletcher,O shea, and Scholes, Smith survives for the defensive cover that is it, he can't make it in a 2 man midfield.
This team will never happen, but it's an idea??
 
we were told park could play in midfield too.......so lets use him there....

we can only play one goalie ;)
 
The more I wait for this game the more confident I am feeling, with scholes suspended it seems like fergie is forced to play with ronaldo and park on the wings with rooney and ruud up front, unless both smith and fletcher have a shocker (which is possible) we should cruise to comfortable victory.

possible but not probable, dont think richardson will play midfield again for united but u neva know, think fergie will want the running of fletcher in the center with smith and opt for a conventional 4-4-2 with fletch and smith both playing defensively with smith slightly further back.
 
I'd start with...

VDS
Bardsley, Wes, Rio, Mickey
Smith, Flectcher, Park
Rooney, Ronaldo
Ruud

However I think he'll start with...

VDS,
JOS, Rio, Silvestre, Richardson
Smith, Fletcher, Park
Rooney, Ronaldo
Ruud

Agreed on both counts
 
I think Wes might play, defence is an issue and he might feel wes could add some pace at the back.

We will win this match.

Why?

Because Scholes isn't playing.

Don't you think you have overreact?

There are many reasons why we win a match and many reasons why we lose one.

It's like I can also say we will win this match.

why?

because our club captain gear them up/motivate them and the players are out to prove him wrong or whatever..so we win this match because of Roy Keane.
 
i wont get this but I would like:

. VDS

. Brown Rio Micky Bardsley

. Park Smith Richardson Ronaldo

. Rooney

. Ruud
 
Ruud and Ronaldo look very good and refreshing.

I'm expecting something out of them today :D
 
Line-up:

Ronaldo
Smith

Richardson
Rooney
Ruud
 
van der Sar
Brown
Ferdinand
Silvestre
O'Shea

form uefa.com

finally Richardson in midfield! :devil:
 
bench:
Howard
Park
Rossi
Miller
Pique
Bardsley
and Richie Jones if I see correctly :eek:
 
Howard
Park
Miller
Bardsley
Piqué
Rossi
Jones
 
I won't be surprise if we revert to 433, to tighten up our game in the middle of the park. Especially as it's an away European game. Lille will likely take the cue from the Boro game and attempt to control the CM. At OT, they had 5 accross midfield, don't see them changing - they tend to be a cautious, "defend first" team.

arrrRrrgg..

why can't we have this formation when Scholes play?!?! Stick him in the Rooney position (attacking midfielder+second striker, as long as he can attack) and put Rooney on the right and Ronaldo on the left but no, when Scholes play SAF or CQ plays him in a stay back midfield position. :rolleyes:

Interseting to see how Richardson preforms on the left , Park on the bench?
I'm waiting for sky sports to come back to the topic - the above personnel list would match what I'd noticed before it flashed off the screen.

Brown - Rio - Silvestre - O'Shea.

Or it could be O'Shea on the right, Wes and Rio in the middle with Silvestre returning to left back.

It could be.

It also could be O'Shea in MF and Richardson at LB.

Or even Richardson, Smithy and Fletcher in a middle 3.

Could be anything exept for 4-4-2.
