    Reckon we will see Kagawa in a midfield position next to Fletcher. Not that he's great there, but we don't have too many options atm. I guess we'll find out if I'm right in a few minutes.

    Edit: Oh no, I was completely wrong. That team does not inspire confidence. Hopefully the defence can be more solid than last time. Looks like we will be completely dependant on Rooney, RVP and Mata to play well again.
     
    Knew Valencia would play, Valencia is LVGs number one for wingback.
     
    @ManUtd: #mufc XI: De Gea; Jones, Smalling, Blackett; Valencia, Cleverley, Fletcher, Mata, Young; Rooney, van Persie #MUFClive
     

    Manchester United XI: De Gea; Jones, Smalling, Blackett; Valencia, Cleverley, Fletcher, Mata, Young; Rooney, van Persie
    Not sure about Fletch and Cleverley, though with our injuries it's as good as we have.
     
    Need 3 points today. How long will it take for LVG to realize RVP and Rooney don't work together?
     
    Clevz and Fletch :drool:. Sunderland are in for a world of pain.

    But seriously, glad RvP is back.
     
    bingo! and i expected kagawa, janazaj & james will come in as substitutes also
     
    Why does Janujaz not start?

    I was thinking the same thing, but I don't know if he's equipped to play at wing back and the other alternative would be for him to take Mata's spot.
     
    I'm glad RVP is back still think it'll be a tough game though looking forward to it, hopefully we get the win.
     
    Mata, Rooney and RvP aside, that is such a depressing side. Fletcher and Cleverley in CM, Young and Valencia wide... I will be delighted if we somehow manage to get a point, can't see it. The lack of pace (except Valencia) is astonishing.
     

    Manchester United subs: Amos, M Keane, James, Kagawa, Hernandez, Welbeck, Januzaj.
    Herrera and Rafael (still) injured?

    Januzaj should be starting.
     
    Mata needs to be on top of of his game when ti comes to defensive duties,otherwise not sure can Fletcher and Cleverley hold that midfield.
