Seems like a strong team, hope we line up with Rooney upfront and Giggs in midfield, there are so many ways that team could line up but I can see us starting with a solid 4-5-1 hopefully I am wrong on that.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
Anderson must play high energy football today. We cant allow their midfield any space whatsoever. Keep possession and we'll win this game.

He will do the job tonight, it's about time! Think he's likely to be played as the front man today allowing Rooney to drop off and create.
Yeah, that'll do i think.
It'll be a right devil of a job perhaps but i am quietly confident, and Anderson will make a valued contribution i'm expecting [goal or no].
UNITED!!

I'm expecting (hoping for) good performances from Berbatov, Anderson and Rio.
Porto unchanged from the first leg.
We need big performances. I think Ando is fantastic in a three. Its a shame Fletch is missing as I probably would have had him starting ahead of Carrick today just for freshness, but other than that, hoping to see a performance from the front three.
C'mon clock. Tick faster
Ji Sung Park?
Looked shattered.
Thanks, will no doubt prove crucial to our chances.
Probably already been said but Ferreira's got a touchline ban and will part company with his squad once they reach the stadium.
Good team should get the job done... i hope
Anderson to score against his old team?
feck off my moneys worth more to me than that.

My money is on him fannying about passing sideways with the outside of his boot for 70 odd mintues before being hauled off for someone more visibily industrious (read: Tevez)
its 4 4 2 not 433 isnt it
Subs: Foster, Neville, Evans, Nani, Scholes, Tevez, Macheda.
Wonder where PIG is...

hahaha
We need to score.
Come on against his former club its gotta be written in the stars!
Fecking Redknapp again
not even on bench
I'd say it's likely to be the latter actually, and rightly so IMO, unimportant as it is. lol
I've been reserving judgement on Berbatov since he joined but tonight's performance will play a big part in my judgement. He simply has to step up to the bar tonight.
A good team selection as expected. We need everyone to be firing on all cylinders tonight. We have enough potential firepower there.
No one would be happier then me if he scored but hes all power and no control. Most of his balls end up in the crowd behind the goal...but if did score and found his scoring touch, well then....second coming of Keano!?
feck me...
absolutely bricking it. The way our defense has been playing, I am expecting a few heart attacks.
I hope Rio, Vidic, Evra and VDS play like they did in the first half of the season.

No Ruud?
Why is O'Shea always picked over Gazza? he's been shaky lately, and offers feckall going forward.
Neville has played in the last 3 games after a 2 month lay-off. At his age that ain't easy.
Porto manager has left the building lol, hes not even going to be in the stand
True i was just curious, because before even if Foster was fit he wouldnt be in the 16 but could it finally mean that PIG is third choice?
I donno against Inter i thought he was aiming but it went really far wide
I like the look of that team.
They just showed Porto's 2nd on rte , very very soft.
that's odd - i thought touchline bans = sit in the stands....
