Fabio playing.
Rafael must not be 100% yet. Although I'm happy for Fabio. Starting to come into good form.

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.
Bar Fabio for Rafael, this is exactly the team I thought would play tonight. Hopefully Fabio's inexperience doesn't cost us anything tonight.
Can I just say I love Fabio.
Where is Owen? Sorry if this has been covered.
Loving the starting line up, surprised at lack of striking back up on the bench though, is Owen injured?
O'Shea at the back. Probably Scholes in midfield to keep possession better. Rooney upfront on his own considering the amount of football Hernandez has played lately.
Don't get me wrong, I really like the look of this line-up
It's the same line-up that started at Stamford Bridge is it not?
Schalke's lineup is very attack minded
No you can't you pervert.
So no Howedes for Schalke big loss with the young Papadopoulos in his place.
"I hope I can swap shirts at the end of the game with Ryan Giggs. It will be a great honour to have that shirt." ~ Raul
Raul is a class act - always has been.
Great video from Sky Sports.
If the plan is to blast them down the right for 55 to 65mins and run them ragged and then replace the two of them with Raphael and Nani fresh, that just seems cruel lol.
If you were a left back seeing the replacements coming on after you've been run ragged would make you want to cry.

Do they upload these somewhere? Shame if they don't. Because some of them really are top-notch.
The pre match bit on Ten Action is horrible

how much longer for the match lads..... am soo excited!
McClaren has put on that many accents for so long he's forgotten how to speak like an Englishman.
Will be a tough match. I can tell you this much.
Souness on commentary?
McClaren says the team will press us for 90 minutes...hope we cope with it better than we have at times this season
Souness on commentary?
Better than the options of Alan 'paint dry' Smith or Ray Wilkins

It is impossible to comprehend what Budgie says, When I head back home at the end of the year, Ten Action CL coverage is not something I'll miss.
they are also showin Stoke vs Wolverhampton game at 8:45. i might tune in
But...but...Stay on your feet!
My word. My word.
I also like the vote of confidence in Fabio. This year he's finally earned the trust of the manager for the big games. The team looks very capable offensively and defensively so let's hope everyone is on point tonight. We've got to go out there with the intention of winning this game. Dominate possession, press them constantly and be quick on the counter.
Just make sure we don't give Raul a chance.
Not long to kick off and i'm getting nervy now..

I've just had my first nervous fart of the night
Especially with it being Sarpei at fullback, a 34 year old... But who knows how much joy we'll get in the early parts of the game
Yeah no shit Sherlock!
Don't think it is an issue of trust...he has finally been able to stay fit for longer than 5 minutes, and his appearances have risen as a result. People forget he was the more hyped of the twins, but injuries set him back.
Come on UNITED !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
FFS we have to get an away goal and not concede

I think its gonna be a cracking match!
I get giddy when seeing any Da Silva in the lineup
Against L'Arse in the Cup I had an instant orgasm seeing both on the flanks.

VDS considering another season according to sky?!!!!
He's such a wum! very cryptic!
He's such a wum! very cryptic!
VDS teasing us, no definite answer on retirement as he did earlier.
VDS not answering a 'Will you definitely retire' question
VDS getting a bit tetchy on the retirement issue, is he having second doubts? One more year!
