The other option is playing Ferdinand again?
Bollocks if it's being leaked, though. Villa could alter their team/tactics after seeing it before needing to submit it.

Cleverley - Giggs midfield pairing, Welbeck and Valencia playing. This is not going to be good for my patience.
I thought Evra was out.
To be honest that's the best Moyes could have picked unless some of you fancy Rio at CB.

Am really not happy seeing Giggs playing as many games as he is. He was woeful against Shakhtar and should be a bit part player by this stage. What's going on with toilet brush?
With Nani out, Young being Young and Kagawa being underwhelming.
Tony was a sureshort starter in this game.
If that lineup is correct yet again, Moyes needs to find who the mole is and do a Pep. No one would have dared leak the team lineups if Fergie was still in charge.
Isn't Fellaini undergoing a wrist surgery or something?

Welbeck playing, oh God. Why Moyes?
If we putting Januzaj on the left then we may as well start Hernandez rather than Welbeck. And Moyes is doing a good job of justifying Fellaini.

Wasn't there someone laughing at the press conference when he said RVP was out. Fergie would have had his balls on a skewer.
Im sorry, im unaware of what he did. Can you explain it to me please?
Whenever people moan about Giggs in the line up, he's usually good.
When we're happy about it, he usually disappoints, so maybe it's a good thing that people are having a whinge.

It's all up to Rooney again then as far as scoring a goal goes.
I think Pep just had an outburst saying whoever leaked the line ups would be fired from the club, regardless of stature.
There's allegedly a mole in Bayern who's leaking team tactics, lineups, team talks to Bild. Pep said if the mole is caught, he'll be kicked out of the team.
We really need to feck everyone off, on the pitch and off it. We need to show anger, passion and a better mentality. We really need to get down peoples throats and make sure they know exactly who we are, I hate us being a nice, disney themed club. We're far too friendly recently, why doesnt Moyes just come in one day and throw a water bottle at someones head and throw some punches.
Get a grip re Welbeck and Fellaini's injured.
Hasn't this kind of shit been going on since Fergie left? Remember in the summer when everyone was complaining that we're far too public since Fergie left?
What has Welbeck done to justify a starting place? I'd get a grip, when he does that.
He is leaking it since he's the one putting it in the public domain.
And didn't Daniel Taylor get banned for reporting that a Rio was out for our first game of the season vs Everton last season (which we played Carrick in defence, and lost). I don't think he got to attend another presser all season.
Moyes shouldn't be accepting of any journos leaking squads before games. It's the same idiot all the time too. Him and whoever he's getting the info from need dealing with.
If you're referring to the public bids this summer, that was the decision of Woodward as he felt that under the previous regime, there wasn't a good line of communication between the club and the fans. Hence why he wanted to be more open. I highly doubt he or Moyes sanctioned leaking the team lineups.
No, I wasn't talking about that at all. There was times where everything just seemed so much more public in comparison to previous years, a few journalists pointed it out too. Oh well, I hope everything is sorted out fast.
Shame, I'd like to see how we do without Wingers for once and play Rooney and Kagawa behind Welbeck, with Giggs, Jones and Clev making the 3 behind.
Welbz gonna score tonight.. zup zup
I remember a few posters saying that there would be a lot more leaks after Fergie left because those who wouldn't have dared leak anything before would do so under the new regime to 'test the waters' so to speak, see where Moyes stands on information going public.
Have the same feeling.
Seriously that lineup is a bit mental.
Jones and Evans in itself is an attacking central defending pair, if that makes any sense which it probably doesn't.

If Welbeck is playing hope he ups his game, don't think he and Rooney have clicked well in their last few games when partnered.
Think I read somewhere that Chicha's injured.
That's a wide open midfield. We could be in for a fun game.
Decent line-up. I expect a big showing from Cleverley and Giggs today, especially. They both know they face a stiff task, but I fancy them to rise to the challenge.
Both like to carry the ball from the back, if that's what you mean. To be honest, I'd rather that than Rio's hoofball tactic.
Welbeck
Another close match without many goals then.

Are Chicha and Kagawa available and still Welbeck starts? I can't see a reason why Welbeck would start on attack if Chicha is not injured.
Same could be said about three quarters of the squad.
So is Welbeck the target this week? Good to know. I was stupidly looking forward to seeing him get his game, being a talented homegrown player and all.
This really is an average first 11. Not much Moyes can do though with all the injuries we have.
Shut the eff up, Brophs.
A bunch of lads on the 'net have said he's not up to it, so that's the end of the matter.
I don't my Danny Welbeck it's Tom Cleverley that makes my heart sink, I hope he grows some balls and tries to dictate the game today.
