Manchester United vs. Arsenal

Fergie says Michael Carrick and Darren Fletcher are injured and have "no chance"of playing against Marseille on Tuesday #MUFC

OH feck !!!!!! Theyr'e not rested guys. we are down to the bare bones.

:lol: He's surely on a WUM

Pissing off the media with his lies
 
we're basically saying that we don't care about this, at least not compared to the CL game.
 
Almunia; Sagna, Djourou, Koscielny, Gibbs; Diaby, Denilson; Nasri, Wilshere, Arshavin; RVP

They're going to kill us :lol:
 
WTF, no Carrick or Fletch for Marseille either

We are fooked.

The amazingness of the twins on the wings in neutralised by the middle..

This will be awesome
 
Oh dear, our midfield is fecked. Carrick and Fletch out for Marseille

wtf?????????:annoyed::(:nervous:
 
Rafael and Fabio on the wings = WANKTASTIC

O'Shea and Gibson in the middle = SUICIDETASTIC

I'm feeling a bit of the same. If we are really that decimated, this selection is so crazy it just might work. Rafael and Fabio being unleashed to attack at will is something i must see. I pray our central midfield dominates the game today though. Keep getting the ball wide whenever possible.

O'Shea and Gibson, you gotta step up!
 
If we win, will Fergie get fined for fielding a weakened team?
 
We should be confident......yes it's a challenge but we went to Everton one year with a young team too and rose to the occasion. It's make shift, it's experimental but lets see how the first half goes before losing it. The team shape will be interesting
 
Love it. People seem to forget that O'Shea in midfield is golden, if only it was Giggs alongside him. I'm really looking forward to this.

Come on United!
 
If Fletcher and Carrick are out of the CL we need to rest Scholes and Giggs today. I can kind of understand the team selection.

Worse case scenario we lose and Arsenal have more games to play. With the international break the squad will be much stronger next time we play in the league.
 
Manutd.com MatchTracker says Valencia starts.
 
I don't think it's unfair to be sceptical about today's line-up. It's new and unexpected. Very slow central midfield. Hope that doesn't get exploited. Also hope that Gibson works his socks off with his positioning.
 
This is going to end well. I don't know who's supposed to be able to complete passes, but we'll figure it out.
 
Am I the only one 10x more excited about this game now that we've seen the midfield? Might be the masochist speaking though.

How ? It's O'Shea - Gibson against Nasri, Wilshere :rolleyes:

Thank feck we're playing at home, otherwise we would have been embarrassed.
 
Is Fergie taking the piss or what, O'Shea and Gibson CM combo has to be worst pairing ever.
