Manchester United vs. Blackpool

Is Giggs being rested for the final, do you all reckon?
 
I'm pretty damn sure he'll come on for at least 30 minutes. Owen, that is
 
I think Anderson will have a field day playing behind Berbatov with Blackpool going for it and leaving the game open.
 
Skys montage of our 19 titles was amazing.
 
Strachan claims that SAF has sold a player two weeks after losing to him in pool twice. I suspect he's joking, but it's very, very deadpan.
 
Bruce! YES! YES! for Alex Ferguson!

:drool:
 
I am surprised at the strong team but I guess it is also important to keep in mind that we have had enough rest between our last 3 games and the CL final too has 6 days to go.

If you rest players for too long surely it will affect their sharpness.So not a bad decision.
 
TV talked about players trying to get into the starting XI against Barca, do you think if Berbatov scored 5 today he'd get picked? I don't.

Maybe, Anderson's game relies a lot on having quick attackers who he can put in behind the defense, so I reckon Nani will have to do some clever runs in order for Anderson to fully perform.
 
Were the blackpool fans singing Glory Glory Man United?

haha

VDS

I think your right. He just doesn't fit the system that SAF thinks has the best chance against Barca.

Not a chance. Fergie already knows 10 of the 11 I would think. Only right back probably up for grabs.

I'd say some players are playing for their place on the bench.
