Manchester United Football Club vs Maccabi Haifa

Superstar on the bench, thank god he didnt get in at right back.
Anyone remember the last time he played fullback? i still cringe at the thought of it <img src="graemlins/annoyed.gif" border="0" alt="[Annoyed]" />
 
I fookin hate adverts (John Smiths apart of course) and keep popping on here to escape.

Did you see that Lee Sharpe back heel against Barca before the break. Total class.

I had to chuckle at the Mark Hughes header. He used to put every ouch of power he had into headers and they'd just casually drift into the corners <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laugh Out Loud]" /> Great stuff.

Back on, back to the TV, see you in 10 :(

<strong>I think SAF will start 442 but this team can be dangerous and I'd prefer an all out assault. My preference would be 433:

-------------- Fab ---------------

OShea ---- Rio --- Blanc --- Micky

---- Becks --- Veron --- Giggs ---

---- Forlan --- RVN ---- Ole -----

(If Blancs out, OShea in the middle and Phil at RB).

No great width but with 3 targets and the passing ability of this middle 3 surely we can create a bag full of chances.</strong><hr></blockquote>

Yes but noone to defend in the middle ! Exciting but too dangerous. <img src="graemlins/nervous.gif" border="0" alt="[Nervous]" />

and for the 100th time i say michael stewart

we usually only play with 1 def mid and either scholes or veron ... you cant keep 3 def mids happy
 
i see the stretford end arising
i see there´s trouble on the way (scoreboard on the wane??)
dont go out tonight
unless youre red and white
i see theres trouble on the way

It's possible ! It depends, in some games we should play with two, it worked well last year.
 
So its very similar to Leeds. Phil with Veron in cm. Michael Stewart on the bench despite having a twisted ankkle that rules him out for 2 weeks. Shame Forlan isn't starting, in our easiest CL match.

some, but no the majority ... our midfield is fine ... we have 6 established players fighting for 4 places ... stewarts good enough and just how often are scholes, butt and keane out at the same time?
 
oh for fecks sake ...

poor defending and the ball went thru barthez´s legs ...
 
THANK YOU GIGGSY!!!!!!! <img src="graemlins/devil.gif" border="0" alt="[Devil]" /> <img src="graemlins/devil.gif" border="0" alt="[Devil]" />
 
Looks like a 6-1 job with Forlan to get number 6, you read it here first. Come on United <img src="graemlins/keano.gif" border="0" alt="[Keano]" /> I seen first goal going through Barthez legs.
 
Couldn't tell who crossed it, but it was a good one, and nice header by Giggs into the top corner.

Blanc needs to try harder, you can't just not bother running.

Ole should have scored just then! Where are his shooting boots?

Good news, they look defensively poor, and we look in the mood to score. Whether we're good enough is another matter, but I think we'll be ok.
 
It was straight through his legs which he didn't manage to close in time, poor. Ruud hits a good shot, well saved.
 
Cheers Jens, I just thought my eyes were deceiving me.

Barthez has yet to keep a clean sheet in 3 games. Carroll had 3 I believe.
