Manchester United v Middlesbrough

Giggs needs to rest before Milan. We don't have any other option. Well, maybe we could put Ronaldo on the left and Eagles or Fletcher on the right, but that's obviously not the case.

With the league our supposed priority, shouldn't Giggs be playing today and rested for Milan so he's fresh for Everton?

Or are they talking bollocks again and the league is being put at risk again for the bosses fascination with winning the champions league?
 
hope we play the same formation we've played lately with Richardson getting the chance to show what he's really about in the middle
 
feck OFF ALL! Richardson will be immense today, I can feel it. :D
 
the boss is right to place priority on the CL. Manchester United need another of those more than another League title, no matter what most of you say.
 
feck sakes, Richardson starts, why play that useless fecker and risking our title hopes.

Anyway, pub time. To watch the game with the most pessimistic fecker in the world and a chelsea fan. Boo

I'm feeling cheery anyway. I feel confident. I just hope we score early so I don't have to hear the doom merchant that is my friend moan and also to stop the chelsea fan from being smug

We should be wrapping up the league before worrying about Milan. We're in just as good a position to win the league as we are the Champions League, and in the press they've been harping on about how the league is our priority - playing Giggs over Richardson clearly points to the contrary.

I, just like everyone else, hopes to be proven wrong and we do a job out there today.

Thing is, Richardson against Milan would be a massive liability and would probably lead to lack of offensive fluidity as in Europe you need to involve everyone when you're going forward against such a classy team.

Middlesbrough aren't Milan, Richardson could do the job against them easily.
 
Believe me guys Richardson will have a screamer today and will score a wonder goal too!.......
 
While league may be a priority for us, I can't see why would we piss on Champions League when we are so far in the competition, for me European success is just as important as the title, especially after so many years of drought and total under-achieving.
 
Right, I've decided to be rational and state that if we can't neat 'Boro today with Richardson the only change then we are shit and don't deserve to win the title.

Champions League, resting Giggs, Pompey?
 
I see you lot truly dislike Richardson, but think about it for a minute - if you were a football player, wouldn't you just feel a bit strangely if all of your fans nothing but criticised you all the time?

Give him some support ffs.

Seriously mate, you don't know what drought and underachieving really is!:lol:
 
bit of a 433? Richardson's too cripplingly one-footed to switch wings...
 
Giggs is too old to play two games in a week.Its a sensible decision by Fergie to rest Giggs.Obviously Richardson is the only left winger we have available so we had to play him.
Milan is a huge match imo.Champions league semi final ffs!
