In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
Unless he starts dealing with crosses he will continue to be on the bench. Very poor on Wed for the Newcastle goal.
Damn, SAF is killing me in the lineup game.
Disappointed not to see either one of cleverly or anderson starting.
City's midfield is scary compared to us.
I see it more as a 433 with Kagawa and Nani playing either side of RVP. I have to say I would prefer to see Cleverley or Anderson instead of Giggs, oh well in SAF we trust.
Noodle deserves to die for this.
At his age perhaps we should look at other players being given a chance to start. Scholes is still one of the best midfielders in world football but given how well Ando and Cleverley played mid-week, one of them should be playing today.
Here's to Dembele walking casually through the United midfield, like he is shopping.
Sorry chaps if Saf believes this his is our strongest team, then his age really has caught up with him. Giggs and Scholes starting has not worked well for countless seasons and we do have better younger players on the bench. Maybe 70 was pushing it.
Not exactly the paciest line-up is it?
Those are the odds, on Spurs to be leading at half time and it being a draw come the final whistle.
Even Liverpool's is better than ours at the moment. I can see why we don't buy any new CM's when we're going to continue to start Scholes and Giggs even in games as big as Anfield and Spurs.
Jesus Christ..What other choice do Fergie got though? Young and Valencia out injuried, Nani and Giggs starting. We could play Welbeck or Rooney on the wing, but we all know that they are a waste of space out wide.
Yes.
The ESPN lads really are clueless.
Wasn't his fault at all, stop talking through your ass.
Why is Giggs in the team? I realize we have no other wingers, but he's not a winger himself.
Dembele is going to run over our midfield...again.

This is not gonna be pretty
Rooney not fully fit is what I am guessing
Sorry lads but it's clear now Ferguson has gotten too old. 70 was enough. From now on the team shall be decided by people on the Internet voting for their favourites based on the last week of results.
I'm not watching, but I'm sure you're right. It's disgusting, three random caf members would be 100 times better.
Scholes and giggs again. Seriously Fergie, stop using them so much!
This.
I partially hope SAF picks Scholes and Giggs in every game for the rest of the year so noodle can combust in rage.
Yep, if you look back at the last several games where Giggs and Scholes started together...all losses.
They're going on and on about how we afford players to much space in midfield, and then show a clip of us standing off players, and when they get the ball rushing them so they don't have time to think, 4 examples, and not one moment of danger.
What's our full bench?
Jesus h Christ.
Well I'm not one for slating team selections normally but I'm really not confident after seeing that line up. I'm really not sure a midfield containing Giggs and Scholes will be able to match the work rate from a midfield like Spurs.
Can see us getting over run and having to change things early 2nd half to either get back into teh match or obtain some kind of control.

People on this slate Giggs being in the line up as if he's unable to kick a fecking football.
Plus, if Giggs was replaced by, I don't know, Welbeck maybe; people wouldn't be slendering the line up. It's just because Giggs is involved.
I just don't understand. I'm thrilled with this team, when I saw the comments before seeing the team sheet I expected to see Bebe playing in defence with Macheda starting along side Fletcher up front.

I wish we had stuck Kawaga on the left wing and brought in Rooney/Anderson/Cleverley.
Well that much is accurate.
Exactly. It's not like he will be any worse than what Nani has been of late.
Well at the moment he can't
Giggs needs to play otherwise the Left side will get fecked by Lennon and Walker.
