Final draft.

----------Howard-----------

-Gazz--Wes--Mickey--OShea

-Ron--Fletch----DJDJ--Giggs-

----------Scholes-----------

-----------Saha------------
 
ruud's on 4 yellows - i wonder if fergie is holding him out for that reason? play him and have him get a yellow and miss villa. 9give someone a good kickin')
 
----------Howard----------

G.Neville-----Brown-----Silvestre----O'Shea

Ronaldo-----P.Neville-----Scholes-----Giggs

Saha
Van Nistelrooy
 
I'd have the following

----------Howard-----------

G.Nev--Brown--SIlvestre--OShea

Ole----Scholes----???----Giggs

----Saha---van Nistelrooy-----

For the other midfield place anyone from Butt - Djemba - Kleberson

Play Ruud for a while, then bring Ronaldo on for him later, moving Ole upfront with Saha. Giving Ruud the rest and Ronaldo fresh legs once Chelsea players start getting tired

You won't find any arguements here Davo.

We all laughed at Houllier for buying Igor Biscan, Diao, Diouf, Vladimir Smicer, Heskey and Finnan in trying to make the Liverpool squad "younger" (but fecking shite), but this lot would walk into the United first-XI ATM with the players our "richest club in the world" currently (and simultaneously :wenger: ) utilises.

Really the thing that irks me is why United supporters have to pay twice as much as the likes of Birmingham, Southampton and Fulham's supporters to see a first-XI team marginally worse, not just in terms of form, but also (currently) in quality?

There's nothing wrong with recruiting the likes of Liam Miller to the Manchester United squad, but Manchester United shouldn't therefore be described as the biggest/best/richest club in the world, because currently it isn't - it is the shareholders that are the biggest/best/richest.

I'll support the club whatever direction (upwards or downwards) it DECIDES to take in the coming years, but the current direction doesn't deserve the vast amount of £pounds, dollars, yen, etc is generates.

How many of the young/inexperienced/shite players won us the league last season (or got us to the top this Christmas)? None.

This team (barring injuries±, suspensions^ or summer replacements*) did:

---------------------Howard*--------------------
--G Neville----Brown±---Silvestre-----O'Shea--
--Solskjaer----Keane-----Butt---------Giggs--
------------Saha(Scholes^)----------------------
-------------------van Nistelrooy-----------------

Carroll
P Neville
Ronaldo (after 60mins please)
Kleberson/Fletcher
Forlan

The rest should EARN their place because this is not a holiday camp.

Strange that Gudjohnsen is the only striker in the entire squad.

Fergie could still let us all down by playing Fletch in the right, Ron on the left and Giggs up front.

Hasselbaink is on the bench, Joe Cole is upfront with Gudjohnsen.

Mutu and Crespo are injured.

I will cry if that happens honestly :(
 
The reason that Hasselbaink is on bench is that he got some foot injury in yesterdays training.
 
Hasselbaink is NOT on the bench contrary to reports. He injured himself in the warmup and WILL NOT play today.

no, the official linup stated that he's on the right, but he's in middle :boring:
