"Ryan Giggs and Gary Neville have been declared fit for Manchester United after missing the FC Copenhagen defeat.

Striker Louis Saha will return to the starting XI with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer carrying a slight hamstring tear. " from BBC

bollocks or true ?

too good if true :devil:
 
Good news, I cant wait to see United in the league again.

Our football last week was poetry in motion, here's hoping for more of the same and more of Fletcher on the bench.
 
It´s true they all seem to be fit excellent i´m gonna get to see them all in action - welp it´s time for the airport now :D

Ryan Giggs, Gary Neville and Louis Saha are all fit to return against Portsmouth after missing United's midweek defeat in Copenhagen.

Giggs has recovered from a hamstring strain, Neville has overcome a troublesome calf injury and Saha is okay after receiving a knock on the knee.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, however, is likely to be out for around four weeks after sustaining a partial hamstring tear in Denmark.

"Ole had a scan on Thursday and thankfully it's only a partial tear," confirmed Sir Alex at his pre-match press briefing which will be shown on MUTV Online later this afternoon. "He'll be out for a maximum of four weeks, but we initially thought seven weeks so it's good news.

"Everyone else is fit [apart from ankle victim Ji-sung Park] and I expect to field the same team that played against Bolton," he added.

So it will/should be:

--------VDS---------
Gary-Rio-Vida-Evra
Roni-Scholes-Carrick-Giggs
----Rooney---Saha---

Hopefully the lads play like they did against Bolton, that was just a joy to watch
 
Absolutely superb news on the injuries!!



With this team, we will RAPE Pompey!!
 
Splendid. I just love when we field our absolute strongest eleven, then we can show what United really are about. A voice in my head says I must post the eleven, so here goes..

VDS
NEV RIO VIDA EVRA
RON CAR SCHO GIGG
ROO SAH

2-0 ROO, CAR

I'm sure 'Arry Redknapp loves the fact that this cnut only wants to beat United so Chelski can benefit!

Wonder what he says before he plays them? "I wouldn't be bothered if we lose as it'd be 3 more points to help Chelski win the league."

What a twat.
 
i'm not suprised if Giggsy, neville, saha were never injured in the first place but had 'Fergie injury'(ie: a bluff to prevent fans' outrage while giving his players a deserved rest)

With this line-up we're gona smack Pompey 3-1 with goals from Scholsesy, Ronaldo, Vidic with a volley from inside the box that will cannon off the post into the net....

Yep, thats our best possible team to put out, agree with the scoreline too.
 
So Evra is now number one choice at left back? Not that i dont agree i'm just assuming thats what everyone else is probably thinking now.
 
Confirmed:

VDS
Neville, Ferdinand, Vidic, Evra
Ronaldo, Carrick, Scholes, Giggs
Rooney, Saha

Thanks, great team.

Not much on the bench mind, especially now Ole and Parky are injured.

Gabby is rusty as f*ck and looks slow right now and easy to skin. Give him training time. He could easily be playing at CB or LB in a couple of weeks if anyone gets an injury.
Evra looks mustard at the moment and should be given his chance.

Personally, I think that he is, although I do love Heinze and when he is fully fit then both players can challenge for the position. Heinze was amazing at LB in his first season, Evra is doing the exact same thing now he has settled in.
 
Sol Campbell isn't starting either, Stefanovic and O'Brien central defenders

Im thinking if Saha or Rooney get injured Ronaldo or Giggs can cover the front.

Ronnie, Giggs and Scholes can play as a striker with O'Shea/Fletcher playing midfield if needed
 
That bench is bloody awful, I can see what will happen. Saha to pull up injured and force us to use Fletcher on the right with Ronnie down the middle. Then another midfielder will go off, and force a complete Fergie re-shuffle.

I'm totally bemused by this bench, it's a home game FFS!! Who on that bench will come on and change the game? All due respect, that bench isn't special and hasn't a goal in them.

Redknapp probably seems to have a concern about the speed of our game which could see Campbell with twisted blood.
