Tottenham Hotspur v Manchester United

Confusing lineup. Hope to God Anderson doesnt play out wide in a 4 man midfield.
 
We knew Valencia wouldn't be playing. He wasn't even back from Bolivia yesterday. For all we know, Nani is injured. Why the tantrums?
 
Not surprised Park is playing.

Anyways, we're going to win the game
 
As always lets see how the match pans out before knocking the line up.
 
I'm severely disappointed with the lack of Nani, why would Fergie go and drop him after he's had such a good start to the season?

On another note, Guus Hiddink is on ESPN!
 
Why the feck do we seem to make whole sale changes to our midfield every game, no wonder there is no fluency to our game at the moment.
 
Substitutes
29 Kuszczak, 20 Fabio, 23 Evans, 16 Carrick, 17 Nani, 25 Valencia, 07 Owen
 
You can never beat people's reactions on here with the line up im sure Fergie have his reasons for not playing Nani. Anyway City get a big win over Arse, Liverpool thrash Burnley and Cheshea get a last min goal against Stoke not a great day so far.

We're clearly not playing with conventional wingers so Nani can't start.
 
Looks like a 4-3-3 to me but I'm sure Anderson and Scholes will have some license to roam up field. I would expect Rooney and Giggs to switch wings.

I'm not sure this is our best formation but we'll see how it goes.
 
Why are people complaining?

It's a very strong line up.
 
I think most people are just annoyed because Fergie obviously knew Spurs would put a very attacking line up out, and instead of us doing the same and taking the game to them, we've gone as defensive as possible.

I think that is the problem. I don't see how we can fit 4 central midfielders into the same lineup without someone playing out of position.

It works for Chelsea doesn't it. Were not gonna play 442 with 2 CM on the wing saying that Giggs can play on the left same for Fletch on the right. Im guessing 433.

Chelsea scored after 93.32 -not unusual with 4 mins of stoppage time.

the second half the ref added 5 minutes on. then after chelsea scored he added another minute

8 in the first half
6 in the second

i have to believe that might be the most stoppage time over two halfs in a long while
