Tuesday 20th September 2011
Carling Cup 3rd Round
Elland Road, Leeds
KO: 1945 BST​
 
Can see Pogba getting on the bench.

Big question is who starts at the back.
 
Expect a lot of changes
----------Linde
Val----Rio-----Evans---fabio
Park-Carrick---Pogba---Giggs
---------Berba-Kiko (owen?)
 
A wild stab:

Lindegaard

Fabio
Ferdinand
Evans
Evra

Valencia
Carrick
Giggs
Park

Berbatov
Owen

SUBS: Amos, McGinty, Jones, Fletcher, Gibson, Diouf, Macheda.

And yes I do realise that's the midfield that pretty much got us to the Champions League final last year, but I think they all could do with a game! Defence is strong but it's pretty much all we've got left! Hoping Jones will be able to walk or shrug off his limp.
 
I can't even guess what the lineup will be. But I will anyway.

Code: 
                  Lindegaard

Valencia    Ferdinand       Jones         Fabio

Park        Carrick          Pogba        Giggs

            Berbatov         Owen

SUBS:
Amos, Smalling, Evans, Young, Fletcher, Anderson, Welbeck
 
Smalling had a groin injury apparently. Would not like to risk too many of our central defenders if Rio is still unfit as well. Maybe Tom Thorpe will get a game?
 
We could always play Carrick cb? :D
 
Rio is back in training. But he missed training earlier in the week and Fergie didnt want to rush him back into a big game
Should be fine for Leeds. Fergie might want to save him for Stoke tho, depending on how the other injuries are

I wouldn't have thought that'd be far wrong but i just can't see the three strikers starting. I think Fletcher might get more minutes or maybe Giggs since it's away from home and there's a bit of youth in the side
 
Hope Rooney, Nani and Anderson are rested and nowhere near the squad for this match.

Congrats! :devil:

Great game to see, take clothes you don't mind getting urine on!

It would have been nice to get Pogba, Morrison, Keane, Cole and the rest a game here, but we won't want to lose this after what happened last time we met.

Maybe we can bring in a young RB at least.

..........Lindegaard
Jones...Rio...Evans...Fabio
........Carrick Giggs
Valencia Berbatov Park
..............Diouf

I have to admit i don't pay much attention to the defenders when i watch the reserves/highlights, anyone want to suggest some names for the bench? Keane for one.
 
Team should be...

GK: Lindegaard

RB: Valencia
CB: Jones
CB: Evans
LB: Fabio

RM: Fletcher
CM: Carrick
CM: Giggs
LM: Park

CF: Welbeck
CF: Berbatov

Subs: Amos, Ferdinand, Anderson, Pogba, Young, Owen, Macheda

After that FA Cup tie I hope we fudging batter them
 
-----------------Lindegaard-----------------
Fabio------Ferdinand-----Evans---------Evra
Valencia-----Carrick------Giggs----------Park
------------Berbatov----Owen---------------

Subs: Amos, ??, Fletcher, Pogba, Young, Diouf, Macheda.

I put question marks for the sub bench, because who knows whether Jones or Smalling will be ready for Tuesday, I don't think Smalling will be. Possibly Jones, but I don't know. Maybe put one of the young lads from reserve there. Sean McGinty?
 
---------Lindegaard--------
Valencia-Fletcher-Carrick-Fabio
-Park---Diouf-Berbatov-Giggs--
------Macheda---Owen-------

There:

:lol:

I rather fancy Berba & Owen to own this competition this year...

Not sure about the former, he's not the type of player to come in out of the wilderness and put in amazing performances. Saying that I suspect the experience of Giggs, Owen, Berba, Carrick/Fletcher to take us far this season
 
i dont care what team plays as long as we smash the, i cant be on with the Ihni binni dimi diniwiny anitaime leeds fans at work if they beat us again!
 
Lindegaard
Valencia Jones Evans Fábio
Fletcher Carrick
Park Berbatov Giggs
Owen
--
Amos; Evra; Anderson, Pogba, Young; Macheda, Diouf​

Liking this, but I think if Welbeck is fit he'll be involved and we'll play some incarnation of 433 with Welbeck out of position.
 
Let the young uns sort this one out but I think we will see a relatively strong side due t.o last years shock loss at home.
 
If we take the piss with the team/respect and lose again to them in the cup then they will mock us even more. Still hear them going on about. Lets dump them out at all 'costs'.
 
----------------------lindegaard--------------------

valencia--------ferdinand--------carrick---------fabio

park------------pogba----------giggs----------macheda

-----------------owen-----------berbatov-------------

subs:

evans on for rio at half time(rio will get some playing time and we will not overplay evans)

gibson for giggs

diouf for macheda
 
2 seasons on and we're still short on fecking defenders.
 
Didn't realise it was only about 48 hours after the Chelsea game. Every starter yesterday should be rested for this unless needed in defence (which I guess Jones and Evans probably are). Hopefully Rio's back. Would be a massive boost!
 
Lindegaard

Fletcher McGinty Evans Fabio

Park Gibson Pogba

Owen Macheda Diouf
