We will throw Fellaini on up front when we are 1 down in the last 10 minutes. Don't panic lads.

IN fairness, that's a decent team. Glad to see we are keeping to a centre back pairing and good to see Kagawa and Hernandez get a game. Europe might suit Giggs more than Fellaini at the moment.
Rooney and Carrick need a top performance tonight. Would prefer Nani over Valencia but we will see how this goes.
As for all the sarcy 4-4-2 comments, I very much doubt we will be linking up like that with Kagawa on the left and Rooney in the centre with a player like Hernandez.

Carrick and Giggs, when they started together in center mid, struggled in almost every game they played together last season and we got run over. I remember home to QPR in particular where I think they started together and we struggled to beat them, that was when they were manager-less too. It's not exactly surprising though, we're using a 40 year old winger next to Carrick. It's pretty much a one man midfield, and that one man isn't exactly a work horse or someone who gets around the pitch, as good as he is.
Do ITV only show games on the tuesday? Would have liked to hear what the bitter man said tonight.
It surprises me we don't. Barca and Madrid have been doing it for years and tends to work out for them
I'm really worried about Giggs in midfield, really don't like it. But Cleverley is not fit, Fellaini hasn't looked good, Anderson is Anderson and I'm happy to keep Jones at what should be his position. Just another sign of the massive failure which is our handling of our midfield for the past few years.
Giggs does not fill me with confidence....
I'd rather have Anderson alongside Carrick than Giggs. Seriously, do fans even consider the psychological damage starting a 40 year-old player can cause for the younger midfielders? When would we ask Giggs to retire & stop stunting the growth of the younger players. Zaha hasn't kicked the ball this season & Giggs get a stroll into the team after putting out shitstorms after shitstorms.
The mind boggles....
Aye, Carrick on his own with 2 inconsistent players wide of him and then Rooney who we never know what we'll get with him from game to game. Thank god Hernandez is starting, he'll win us this game.
Looking forward to seeing what exactly the tactical disposition will be. Could be interesting. Buttner ahead of Fabio
Horrible, horrible midfield. But I'm greatly pleased to see Jones and Evans start at the back again!
Giggs in midfield again ... This is asking for trouble.
Players like?
Any chance Valencia is in centre mid and giggsy out wide? Does Valencia not play centrally for Ecuador?
Also disappointed no Fabio or Zaha on the bench but overall a good team I think.

Game over lads, Eamon Dunphy doesn't fancy Evra or Rafael.

Just seen the line up. Giggs can't play in a midfield two, he just can't. Other than that it looks good. Hernandez gets a start, Kagawa plays even if its on the left and faith in Evans and Jones to carry on looking great. Valencia at least deserves a chance to earn his way back in and we don't want to burn Nani out so not too bothered about seeing him there. Wish Fabio would get a game though.
Would like to see,

We will see how it goes. It's ironic that Giggs gives a lot of the qualities people were criticising Fellaini for not providing Saturday, though.
Who is on the bench?
It would work better than what Moyes is proposing. We'd only have 1 player out of position as opposed to the 2 we have currently.
Valencia is anything but inconsistent he was superb for 2 1/2years and then shit for 1 1/2 no inconsistency here!
It's baffling David Moyes even fails at his line-up. Giggs in the midfield in a must-win game? I would rather have a retired Scholes or Keane there.
That Pepsi advert really gets on me bits.
big performance needed. come on united!
Sensational team news according to Stelling.
I remember we had Giggs Jones in CM against Liverpool in the COC and Giggs did really well. So maybe he will do ok.
To be fair to Roy he has every right to be pissed off, most of us would be also.
Under Moyes, you never have to win. Draws are acceptable. Evidence: see results and tactics thus far in the season.
If they are all bloody injured, what is he supposed to do. They do make something out of nothing.
Now he can be a wally to be honest!
He's made some comments himself during the years so I think he get what he deserves.
Two months ago Moyes spent £27 million on Fellaini and tonight he can't even get in the team ahead of a 40 year old winger.
I'm sorry but I refuse to believe that Giggs is better suited to play CM over Fellaini.

Jones is for racism
joking in case in anybody thinks I am serious for some reason

We will get beasted here.
Please don't be shit Antonio.
I knew the "next John Terry" comparison would come true!
Anderson was poor in the game he played against Palace as well
Cleverley has been the best partner for Carrick this season away at Sunderland - just a shame he got injured - Fellaini was truly awful on Saturday and on that form Ando would be a better option
it looked like a nervous performance for him and maybe he needs some time
as for Zaha I can't understand it - the only viable reason given the amount of rotation and him still not getting a game is that he has pissed Moyes off
I do hope it isn't personal (rumours that Zaha is sticking it to Moyes daughter)
be nice to see us get a decent lead and see some of Kagawa centrally with Fellaini given a run out
He wants racism.
