Seeing as we beat Villa i didnt think people would mind if i did the match thread again :nervous:

Lucky this game is at home as i would of thought the team will be

GK: VdS

RB: Neville
CB: Ferdinand
CB: Silvestre (although personally i think Wes should get the nod)
LB: Evra

RM: Ronaldo
CM: Fletcher
CM: Giggs
LM: Park

CF: Rooney
CF: Ole
 
I reckon the team will be VdS, Neville, Ferdinand, Silvestre, Evra, Ronaldo, Fletcher, Giggs, Park, Rooney, Ole

Oh and we'll win 3-0 Rooney with 2 Ole with the other :cool:
 
Do the 1 game ban's for Scholes and Vidic come into effect in the game after this one?
 
4-0

hopefully a hammering, surely knackered after the chelsea game mentally and physically

rooney rio saha giggs
 
we should go with this...

van der sar

neville
rio
vidic
evra

park
scholes
carrick
ronaldo

ole
saha
-------

and if I got it right Scholes and Vidic are banned after this match...

Rooney can replace Scholes and maybe Heinze (or Brown) to replace Vidic

Carrick won't be available until the Reading game

Are you sure? That is a relief if true.
Yes, it was discussed in the Utd forum. Suspensions for 5 yellows are taken 7 days after, not in the next game.
 
3-0
Ronaldo, Rooney x2

Gaz----Rio----Gaby-----Evra

Give Giggsy a rest
 
With Scholes suspended and Carrick also out, I would wait with Giggs's rest until the Reading match. I'd play Ronaldo-Fletcher-Giggs-Park in the middle against Wigan.

Would be interesting to see who replaces Vidic. Silvestre did it against Everton a few weeks ago. If Brown again isn't selected, I think he may well be off in January.

Agree, It's important to have a fresh Giggs against Newcastle on Januari 1st.


Rooney Solskjaer
Giggs O'Shea Fletcher Ronaldo
Evra Silvestre Ferdinand Brown
VDS

Subs: Kuszczak - Neville - Heinze - Saha - Park

Would give Neville and Saha a rest in this match, both of them have played a lot of matches lately and needs a break.

But I think Fergie will play our strongest avalible 11 in this game, and maybe change the team against Reading so we have fresh players at St James'.
 
its on the sky sports preview for our game

scholes and vidic ARE suspended!

well thats what it says on their anyway!!!!
