Manchester United vs. Bayern Munich

clearly he (SAF) has went for a youthful speedy side with rooney leading the line. He must be 100 percent to even conceive of that.


we have no excuses now!
 
Excellent Excellent Team. Even Gibson, in the company of Carrick-Fletcher is ok.
What a relief !!!
 
Fergie showing Berbatov exactly how much faith he has in him. A half fit Rooney starts ahead of him.
 
It can be no coincidence "Holding out for a hero" just popped on my ipod.

I'm off now, c'mon United!
 
Don't be a twat. The lad could have a stormer.

Yeah he very well could but in most games i've seen this season that has not been the case, and more importantly in Germany i thought we never got to grips in the center of midfield - hes going to have to have a stormer or we could see the same thing happen.

Oh well in Sir Alex we trust
 
feck Gibbo must has to have the game of his life.

Who the feck saw Rooney starting huh
 
Carrick, Fletcher Gibsom, has a good blend of passing, tackling, stamina power and shooting if they perform. Lets hope they click
 
And since Park isn't even on the bench, can bet he is being sold. Having a fit Rooney start is a clear lack of faith in Berbatov.

Come on United !!!!
 
Today, Gibson will show all you doubters his true worth. Watch an attacking midfielder you have all been calling for work
 
Also, O'Shea on the bench!!!

What a cracking bench. Giggs, Macheda, Scholes and the Tov.

No Park though :(

And what a fecking MASSIVE opportunity for Gibson. I always think the kid is gonna score...now is his chance to score a MASSIVE goal and put his foot down in this team. Plus we have a decent fecking corner taker!!
 
Wow Carrick not even on the bench... TBH his form has been really bad lately that im not supprised but to drop him in such a big game

I think Carrick may have played his last game for the club, we're gonna bring in a midfielder, and with the new squad system next year, one of our current midfielders had to be sacrificed, this decision to leave him out of two of the biggest games of United's season points to it being Carrick IMHO
 
And since Park isn't even on the bench, can bet he is being sold.

Talk about jumping to conclusions.

Park didn't get in the 08 final team. He is still a great squad player. He's worth keeping even if only to play against Arsenal and Italian teams.
 
Berbatov must be sitting there in the dressing room and feeling like a piece of shit!

really? in a game that we have to chase a bit he would know without question that this was always going to be the formation (gibson is bit a shock) 4-5-1 would always leave him out.

He can still play a huge part if we need the late pass to set up a goal or the deft touches to set up a scoring play.
