Same team as today. May be with De Gea in goal.
A clean sheet is what we need.
De Gea
Rafael Ferdinand Smalling Evra
Valencia Carrick Anderson Nani
Rooney Welbeck
Rafael Ferdinand Smalling Evra
Valencia Carrick Anderson Nani
Rooney Welbeck
Subs: Lindegaard, Jones, Evans, Scholes, Park, Berbatov, Hernandez.
Maybe the sort of games we can play Scholesy from the start.
Yeah that's the team I'd go for. Jones needs a rest as does Giggs. I'm hoping if we can win it early we can take Carrick, Evra and Valencia/Nani off early too as they've played a lot of games. But I'd def start with this team.
Finally we should have a healthy squad to pick from for this game! Going to have to start leaving 'big' players out again, should hopefully freshen us up a bit too. Young's due back and in theory Owen is too.
de Gea, Lindegaard
Evra, Jones, Ferdinand, Evans, Smalling, Fabio, Rafael
Anderson, Giggs, Park, Carrick, Nani, Young, Scholes, Valencia
Owen, Berbatov, Rooney, Hernandez, Welbeck
From that I'd go with:
de Gea, Jones, Ferdinand, Smalling, Evra, Valencia, Carrick, Anderson, Nani, Rooney, Welbeck.
SUBS: Lindegaard, Evans, Park, Scholes, Giggs, Berbatov, Hernandez.
Maybe with Rafael in for Jones or Ferdinand if necessary.
de Gea, Lindegaard

--------------Lindegaard-------------

Subs: De Gea, Jones, Anderson, Scholes, Park, Chicharito, Berbatov.

-----------Rooney---Welbeck---------
Subs: De Gea, Jones, Anderson, Scholes, Park, Chicharito, Berbatov.
I think Pogba might make the bench with it being another home game. Anderson will start I think and Scholes could start or make the bench. Giggs to be rested.
F*ck the clean sheet. We need to be the moral winners!
De Gea
Rafael
Jones
Smalling
Evra

Carrick
Scholes

This is the line-up I hope to see, definitely a good game for Anderson to start and get as many minutes under his belt as possible.
De Gea
Rafael
Jones
Smalling

Valencia

Scholes
Nani
Welbeck
Rooney
4-1
This
feck off Kevin Davies. I hope we give them another 5-0.
Team should be...

LM: Nani

Finally we've got a squad where players cant make the bench

2-0 please.
So the only notable absentees after today are Vidic, Fabio and Cleverley? Owen doesn't count
Jones needs a rest, cannot see Giggs playing 2 in a row.
I can see Berbatov being brought into the mix here, what we us playing "easy" opposition at home and all. Having that said, I desperately want Welbeck to have a good run of games.
I hope we can win the moral battle here. Much more important than the result.
He is still not fit enough to start. You don't want him pulling something because then his comeback would be a waste.
They might not have Cahill in another week. So I want another big win with a clean sheet to boost our morale.
Doubt it. In midfield we have Carrick, Scholes
, Anderson, Jones and Giggs to pick from.2 or 3 of those will start. The remaining ones will be on the bench.Should be able to put out a strong team and give starts to a couple of lads (Rafael, Smalling, Anderson) that need the minutes. Think Jones will sit out this one, and theres a chance Evans could play instead of Rio.

Can we pls boo Davis whenever he touches the ball. fecking moron.
Start strong finish them off early and then rotate those that need freshness in
Easier said than done, let's not underestimate anyone ever again. Bolton have a few players who can cause upsets.
After that Blackburn team beat us at home, not to mention that loss to Crystal Palace, I'm never taking a game lightly again.
It would really be a shame if a giant hole opened in the ground and swallowed Kevin Davies in the middle of the match. Because we'd have to fill it and lay new grass and all.
Same team please except De Gea.

Anderson starting over scholes otherwise that is an exciting starting 11!

Lindegaard, Rafael, Jones, Park, Scholes, Hernandez, BerbatovI think Jones needs a rest and Rafael should finally get some minutes in the league (at right-back). And I'd start playing de Gea regularly.

i think evra need a rest too, is fabio back yet
Yesh pleash
Why would you want to go 4-3-3? Welbeck is no where near as effective on the wing as he is centrally.
It's a good formation isn't it? Why not change formations at times. And it wouldn't be a rigid front three, it's looking dangerous. Plus I wanted to get Scholsey in there, think it's got great balance.
I know we're having only one midweek game in the next 5 weeks and we shouldn't rotate the team too much but i still think we should give players like Nani, Evra and Jones a break, they've played so much football this season.
I feel one week away somwhere like Dubai would help them so much in the next weeks/months.
