I'm thinking Young behind Welbeck. It certainly could work, lets see what happens before going nuts

What a bench.No defenders on the bench?!
No defenders on the bench again.

Very strong bench, lots of pace and creativity. Jones in DM, potential test for the tougher CL ties?
At least we have our excuses if we don't do well, and can eat humble pie if we win
which won't be his last.
The irony is, those six outfield players on the bench were our first choice midfield for most of last season!
what the feck no nani or rooney or ando
or andoQuoting this for reference at the end of the match.
Another curveball from fergie...have given up trying to second guess the old fox but even by his standards thats not the team I expected to say the least.
I wanted Jones in midfield for this one, think he's perfect for the role.
Why is Rooney on the bench? Must have a slight injury?

Thinking about it, this is a complete reverse of previous games against the dippers.
We've packed central midfield with grafters, they've sacrificed a CM in order to play two strikers. If nothing else, this should mean a change in the pattern set over our last few trips to Anfield.

Hahahahahaha. Fergie stop terrifying me.
Also... people complaining.... Fergie always throws a curveball in the big game lineups and it's gone right more often than just playing our best team.
Think Arsenal with 7 defenders (forced hand but genius move all the same)....
Chelsea 3-0 with Giggs and Berbatov up top......

Aye, me too.
Nice to see Giggs starting though.
Hope they get cocky and we punish them for it.
I get the feeling Welbeck will be up for this. Such faith in him from Sir Alex, also in Jones and Smalling. C'mon United.
This is madness.
I don't feel confident anymore.
What a bench.That bench is one of the most terrifying 7-a-side teams ever.
I'm glad Jones is in midfield though.
A good bench, though I'd like to see Vidic on it, at Carrick's expense.
Why is he on the bench?
Contain and mop up their narrow midfield and widen the play later on?
What is SAF thinking. 1-1
What a show of confidence by Fergie towards Welbeck.
Is Fergie worried Rooney might get sent off?
feck it. Whatever we've been trying in recent years at Anfield hasnt worked so we've gone for somethin completely different
What. The. feck.
What a lack of confidence throughout the rest of the team. More negative than I ever imagined.
What. The. feck.
Rarely performs against the Dippers, add to that the shit storm of the week he's had with the sending off. Rooney isn't above being protected by Ferguson. He did it when the affair stuff happened to. Great man management. He'll be itching to get on and prove a point though.
Kelvin, you called Rooney being left out. What a shout.
We've been here before. It's shocking, but I'm excited to see how it works.
