Time to drop points?
Duff and Butt are major doubts apparently.
Good news for us.
Good news for us.
Final stretch coming up..
Evra may struggle like after playing 120 minutes vs Lennon today. Can maybe see Fabio playing.
Midfield looks fresh, strikers do too
Our defence has been superb this season. I see either a 0-0 draw, or a clean sheet win for us. Rio is back to his best, and Vida is always a beast. I can't see Newcastle's offense putting one past our defence even if they're playing at home.
I have a feeling Ronaldo will be on the bench for this one because he is due a rest. I think SAF wanted to rest him today but Rooney getting a virus changed things
Yeah, he's the only one maybe but a few days rest and hopefully he'll be fine.
Time to drop points?
I'll not believe it until it happens. At the moment, we're looking fantastic in the league so I'm not entertaining the thought of dropped points until it actually happens.

I love when my birthday falls on a match day!
Is Sheasy fit? Went off injured didn't he?
I thought Fergie subbed him because he was one foul away from being off
Newcastle played today, so most of our key midfielders and forwards will be fresher than theirs.
Oh right, fair enough I was thinking the same but he was wincing as he came off. Probably just knackered.
we'll feck 'em up real good, at least 3 goals I reckon
I hope its not Newcastle that end Van Der Sars streak

I would give Ronaldo a rest on Saturday against Fulham (with Welbeck and Nani on the wings).

Injured: Hargreaves, Brown, Rafael
With Liverpool dropping points and Inter next week I can see SAF wanting to give a couple of people a break. The players who did 90mins in Milan and the full 120 today (Ronaldo, Evra, Rio and Evans) all look in line for a rest if we've got fit replacements. I'm guessing Ron and Evans on the bench and the other two playing this one.
agree...probably Wellbeck on the wings..
The beauty of our club... change all XI men and still be in a shout for victory.

Feck me how can I totally forget he's back. Never mind then, I even think he's gonna make it to the starting line-up in front of Ronaldo, just to give the BPITW a bit of rest.Rooney won't play on wednesday. Hope Teveth steps up again.
Carlitos was shit today, other than his peno
dave
is that you ?
He wasn't shit by any means, he had an off game. He played well in Rooney's absence last month, he'll step up again hopefully.
Get off it, he hardly did anything productive, thought Welbeck looked more dangerous
I'd give Ronaldo a break, looked knackered. Hopefully, Rooney is fit.
