You oppened the fulham thread, so I suggest you delete this one and let Gazz open it. He is the one with the best record so far. Plus your Ports link ain't working either.
 
Just bored, that's all, so I thought I'd start the thread nice & early. ;)

Anyway, what's wrong with the Portsmouth link, it works okay on my pc.

Can't see Fletcher starting to be honest. Think it will be Diego or Butt - although home to Portsmouth it would more than lightly be Forlan

I really can't envisage a team containing both Ronaldo and Forlan.
Too much of a possibility that passes will go astray.
Fletcher with one of them supporting Giggs.
 
For those of you in Asia,

United v Portsmouth is again on ESPN at 11pm HKT on Saturday.

Shouldn't Carroll be in your starting line-up instead? ;)

I've got to be consistent don't I. I don't really rate Giggs all that well when playing with Ruud or Forlan.

So I would like to see Bellion in the formation. It's all about formations not individuals.
 
Teddy's gonna get you :D I hope, but considering his Totnumb connections, perhaps not. :nervous:

'Totnumb'? You come up with that yourself, or did you need a bit of help
?

So lets work through your logic.

:: He's a 'Totnumb' old boy and still has 'links' in his old club. These links, having a deep routed, but well guided hatred for anything gooner, wouldn't want their red neighbours winning anything of value this year, prefering instead for Manchester United to take the trophy.

So they phones 'ol teddy up. "Do us a favour and try not score, yeah?"
"No problem, says our cheaky cockney type."

Hey presto, Teddy doesn't score, we win the game and Arsenal finish in 7th place?

It would be funny if Teddy goes to the United dugout again this time. :)

even if u prefer bellion over giggs...shouldn't bellion b playing on the right w/ ronaldo on the left instead of vice versa?
 
Anything but a win would be a disaster, and we have to go all out for it. Also I can see that yakubu guy causing our defence some problems, cos he is strong and fast so they will have to be in top form. 3-1 my prediction.

But I expect Forlan to play behind Ruud instead of Fletcher.

I left Keano out so that he'll be right for the Rangers match midweek.
 
:confused: Keano has not played in the last two games. Why on earth would he need more rest so early on in the season?

fletcher/forlan to come on for ronaldo if he doesn't play well
 
Radio link. Half way down the page on the left is a link for a live webcast.

My team would be
Howard
G.Neville Rio Mickey Fortune/O'Shea

Keano P.Neville

Fletcher Ronaldo Giggs

Ruud

I think with Ronaldo running of Ruud it would really open up Portsmouth a bit of pace and direct running with a few little tricks. Anyhow O'Shea is looking a little jaded and maybe needs a bit of a kick up the backside but he will come good. Giggs must also stick to the left and attack the RB.

The only way to listen is via the offical site. 5 live don't have the rights for internet broadcasting.

Yet another Saturday listenting to the match on the Radio...... chubbed so many times this season.
 
Starting 11:
Howard - Gaz, Rio, O'Shea, Fortune - Fletcher, Butt, Djemba-Djemba, Giggs - Forlan - RVN

Subs: Carroll, Bellion, Keane, Ronaldo, Phizza

Can't believe Phil N. is on the bench again. He was "rested" last week when on a roll. To be "rested" again will bugger up his momentum surely? I'd have thought he needed a game prior to Wednesday.

Kinell! Butty and Jim after Fulham? Keano and Phiz on the bench? Mick rested? Strange choices...

What formation?

-----tim---
Gaz-Rio-Josh-QF
--Jim-Butty---
Fletch-Diego-Giggsy
---RVN---

I wish he'd give Fletch a chance as the link man...he's wasted on the right. Anyway, qualms aside...

COME ON UNITED!!!
