Manchester United vs. Arsenal

[Maciej]

wha???????

...

 

[MUFCgal]

Fit midfielders for Marseille ?
gibson,scholes,giggs,valencia, ando? park?

Its suddenly got less amusing

If Valencia can get some time today, I think the midfield starting on Tuesday would be:

Valencia, Scholes, Gibson, Giggs.

 

[Massive Spanner]

excitement will last until kick-off to be replaced by indigestion.

Well yeah but, it's hilarious. They won't know which is which whenever Rafael and Fabio switch wings.

I mean, it's fecking crazy but ... eh, I dunno

 

[mehro]

What the hell is Southgate on about how Berbatov can't get anywhere near the team. He started in our last game.

He has been left out thrice in 4 now. Does seem a little weird given his form over the season.

 

[Alex]

da Silvas on the wings are going to be fun to watch, I m knocking on wood that they both make it the full 90

 

[JayWalker]

OH ffs, Im more worried about them same fecking twin jokes now...

 

[Berlinknives]

What makes me wonder is how the hell this becomes 4-5-1 ... Rooney-O'Shea-Gibson central?

 

[Legendz]

But how will they know which is which? Will have to look for the wedding ring.

 

[Ivor Ballokov]

This line up has made any nerves I had be replaced by intrigue.

 

[Don't Kill Bill]

It speaks volumes about Obertan when the manager decides to play a fullback instead of him out on the wing.

Yep

I thought the same same thing.

 

[Big-Red]

I get really excited with lineups like this. I don't know why, but it make us winning all the better.

 

[Transfer United Till I Die]

I for one look forward to sitting back, well chilled, and checking out what Rafael and Fabio can do on the wings. If we get trounced, even better, we can give Valencia 45 minutes to regain fitness.

I can't see what possible negatives could come from getting dumped by Chelsea, Liverpool and arse in the space of a week.

The Gooners over at Arsenal Mania unsurprisingly confident of a win after seeing our line-up.

Good. I like that. It's all set up for a surprise then.

 

[wr8_utd]

15 mins to go. I've lost all nerves now

 

[Viper KGB]

Swap Brown with Vidic and

 

[Brophs]

Obertan not playing makes sense in as much as he's shite defensively and with an unfamiliar centre midfield we'll need all the defensive discipline we can get.

 

[Aint gota Kalou]

Forgot Brown. Put him between Rafael and O'Shea and we have ourselves a great team.

This is the best chance they've had of beating us in ages.

 

[vic090482]

There are only 10 players on that pitch, you've missed somebody.

 

[032Devil]

15 mins to go. I've lost all nerves now

Hehe

 

[Tumbling-Dice]

He's basically thrown it. He's said I don't give a feck about this competition that's served me so well and more importantly I dont give a feck about the fans that have paid to go to the game. I mean that's ridiculous isn't it.

Even if we'll win 100-0, it's still wrong team selection.

 

[evra]

If we don't buy a central midfielder in the summer I'm going on a killing spree.

 

[Bynni]

This line up has made any nerves I had be replaced by intrigue.

Pretty much the same here. I'm not least wondering how big SAF's balls are... they must be visible from space!

 

[giggs-beckham]

O'shea Gibson> xavi iniesta

 

[Claymore]

Exciting lineup from one perspective but Arsenal must look at that and get a serious motivation boost as they have their full team bar Cesc and he's been poor lately anyway. If we could win with that lineup it would be off the scale as we have 3 defenders in midfield, Brazilian or not.

Can't wait.

 

[PhilipB]

Obertan not playing makes sense in as much as he's shite

Agreed.

 

[Ole's_toe_poke]

There are only 10 players on that pitch, you've missed somebody.

Forgot Brown. Put him between Rafael and O'Shea and we have ourselves a great team.

I forgot Brown.

He's been given a free role.

 

[EricaNo7]

Obertan not playing makes sense in as much as he's shite defensively and with an unfamiliar centre midfield we'll need all the defensive discipline we can get.

As well as the fact that he's not really very good

 

[Tumbling-Dice]

There are only 10 players on that pitch, you've missed somebody.

Brown

 

[Berlinknives]

This is the best chance they've had of beating us in ages.

Nah, they've been struggling to score and they'll never get past the defences.

Rooney, Hernandez, Gibbo
O'Shea & Da Silvas
Evra, Brown and Smalling
Vidic
Van der Sar

 

[The Flying Potato]

This will be a goal fest

 

[OneUnited24]

What makes me wonder is how the hell this becomes 4-5-1 ... Rooney-O'Shea-Gibson central?

Or Fabio, Oshea, Gibson in CMF and Rooney, Hernandez, Rafael up top. Ive seen Fabio play a few times for the reserves in midfield and he doesnt look that bad

 

[vic090482]

I forgot Brown.

He's been given a free role.

you gave him a free role and he wandered off the field.

After looking at the lineups, I am confident we'll win today.

 

[Drifter]

Put Carrick in there to protect the back six.

 

[Kraftwerker]

Red Richio needs to be banned from this sub-forum.

 

[Nate Dogg]

If we don't buy a central midfielder in the summer I'm going on a killing spree.

I hear Gibson is signing a new contract

 

[antohan]

It does show far both have fallen, particularly Obertan, who was trusted to come on and make an impact in big games at one time in his United career.

That was my second thought (after WTF?????), Obertan is a goner, surely.
