Barthez
Gary Rio BROWN O'Shea
Beckham Scholes Butt Giggs
Ole Ruud
Fletcher and Fortune are on the bench too, its great to see some players coming back from injury and Fletcher must be nearing a PL appearance.

Oh right. Well I was going by the squad as given above.
In that case, Brown and Rio in the middle, JOS and Neville RB & LB.</strong><hr></blockquote>
Good guess.
right...a bannana skin, this one. We'll see how far we've really come from maine road, now we've got to win this to go top and it's a relatively minor team, so..
Silvestre might still be hurting from that injury he picked up at villa, his form has been a bit dodgy of late but dropped?

I've got no nerves about this one, I expect our lads to be utterly fired up for this, and we've got a very strong side out. Lets have no pessimism today.
Just showed the Penalty from the last meeting.Top comedy.

Its injury, not dropped, Alex said so yesterday on MUTV. Mickey's been picking up knocks everywhere these last few weeks, I've been continually surprised how he's been able to carry on playing. But who cares, we've got O'Shea.

Amazing how good your predictions can be when the options are limited.

Good looking side isn't it? Butt and Scholes in midfield I like, and those front two, apparently they're a good partnership.
Not to mention England's future CB pairing of course.
The daft thing is, that although we've played some nice football this season, we haven't been consistent - and yet there we are, right on Arsenal's tails. Last year, I think we played better football more often, and got that very good run of 12 wins out of 13.
the two gingers in midfield...could scare a few people, might look like a pair of giant jaffa cakes running at them .

Depends on whether you're scared of Jaffa Cakes or would just see them as something to be gobbled up.
Looks like a good line up.
Which other premiership team would field 7 home grown players?

How about this, both midfield and defence packed with British players.
Only 3 foreigners from the start. Are you watchin Arsenal?

You're dead right, we've not really played like Champions this year, I'm just hoping that our players will rise to the challenge of the season finale. Real Madrid were shite before Christmas, and I think top players find it hard to motivate themselves 100% but when crunch time comes can turn it on. Drawing Real Madrid has clearly excited the players judging by their player interviews on MUTV and I'm sure they'll be competing hard to get in the team to play them, and to lift their level in preparation for it, as well as of course take the chance to go top and throw down the gauntlet to Arsenal. I'm really expecting a top drawer performance from them.

Do you think the real madrid draw would raise there motivation for the PL?...surely if anything, itl take there minds of the premiership and on to 'bigger things' if you like.
Or was that what you were implying?

Even with 4 of us I bet it'll CGI timeout. <img src="graemlins/houllier.gif" border="0" alt="[Houllier]" />
Who sleeps during a game? i've been up all night so i wouldn't oversleep ;(
feck REF! giggs was fouled, there is no point for giggs to dive when he can score, feck! ref!!!
Referee makes a lousy start.
We should've had a free kick just then and sent their player off.
Scholes is lookin good from the start
Beckham is excellent guarding our near post at corners.
Brown in defence and no Green on the radio. My favourite colour combination.

Great acoustics in this stadium, we're as loud as I've heard us all season.
nice RVN! keep it up!
First shot on target by Ruud, great turn by him to create his chance, good shot but from that angle you had to favour the keeper.
What a player O'Shea is, always exciting to watch. We're gonna tear them apart today.
What a move that was, almost opened the scoring already. <img src="graemlins/devil.gif" border="0" alt="[Devil]" />
rio is quick! <img src="graemlins/devil.gif" border="0" alt="[Devil]" />
