Mass changes from midfield upwards.

Howard, G Nev, O'Shea, Rio, Silvestre, Butt, Kleberson, Fortune, Ronaldo, Bellion, Forlan.

Ruud, Giggs, Scholes, Djemba on the bench.
 
Oh my god! I sure hope Fergie knows what he is doing! Hopefully we will se Giggsy, RvN and maybe Scholesy come on in half time.
 
Sure they need a rest but resting Giggs, rvn AND scholes from the start of the game? Can't blame ppl for calling us arrogant sometimes...

Aye. There's nothing wrong with changing and resting but why do we always rest them in bunches?! :o

I cant find a radio link anywhere, except for the main site, but that's extra.
 
A good first half I tought. We dominated and created quite a few chances and could've had a bigger lead. Diego had a header that only a good save from Martyn prevented from being a goal and Kleb had a great chance to score too but he put it towards row Z. They were very lucky to score so we should win this without any problems.

Kleberson is a good player, no doubt. A quality alternative if Scholes can't play. I also think that Fortune and Butt have been good as central midfielders. Ronaldo has made a few good runs but is not effective, while Bellion has been more or less invicible. Diego has been decent.
 
bellion 3 - 1 but now mickey off injured that + jos could cause problems at boro. Bad foul by jeffers on mickey not booked :mad:

It's geting me worried everytime we got a comfortable lead we stop playing and the opposite team gains more control of the game.
 
fecking crap referee. :mad: Ronaldo should've had a penalty and Rooney should've been sent off. And their right-back should've had at least one yellow card.

Oh, and Jeffers is a fecking cnut. :mad:

Ronaldo was brilliant in the second half. :drool:

We didn't play well after Silvestre's injury though. Djemba is to ambitious and didn't seem like a RB at all, more often than not in the wrong position. Perhaps he'll learn but I can't see him playing in defence.

Oh, and we do need another defender. At the end today we played with two midfielders as side-backs and a RB at CB. :nervous:

Anyway, we won and are top of the league. :D :D :D

I don't think that was the case today, though. We became very "unsolid" in defence once Micky was injured.
