If it's Rooney in the hole and Welbeck up top I'm going to be even more mad.

Oh wow sarcasm...What an enlightening tone to bring to the discussion
Wrong forum obviously.
Sorry, forgot to jump on the bandwagon giving shit to Moyes for things he's not doing.
Rafael, Evra, Smalling and Evans all out. That's our first team defence!
Yeah, I just assumed we must have somebody. I guess Valencia would drop back.
Normally in the cl when two big teams are playing each other and one team is expected to hammer the other team and win very easily, it doesn't work out that way. Either the match is a close, tense one or the underdog manages to win. Like arsenal vs Barcelona and Bayern over the last few years and also Chelsea vs Barcelona. I have a feeling his will be a closer match than people think, although unfortunately I think Bayern will go through in the end.
They're not on the bench
Giggs in the middle, Welbeck wide left, Rooney lone striker.
Thats a great line-up & to be expected aswell. We have subs to change it up too.. No complaints from me!
Hoping for a United win here.
But no matter what Liverpool did in 2005 or Chelsea in 2012, I can't see a good outcome out of this. Reason points to win for the visitors. No two ways about it...

Only thing I'd change given how we're set with injuries and so on, I'd probably replace Carrick with Fletcher.
Yea well and anything for Valencia of course.

I know, surely though it would be worth a gamble to pick one of them for the bench, if they're fit enough to train I'd imagine they would be fit enough for the bench? It's only a guess though.
As discussed earlier, we've never lost by more than one goal at Old Trafford in Europe. It's quite likely we'll be witnessing a bit of history today.
Well, seen as people were saying he could be playing further up front tonight, and I chipped in with saying Moyes would be making more trouble for himself if he did do that, doesn't really constitute as giving him shit.
More like stating the obvious really....But continue with the sarcastic posts. I'm not sure what they are mean't to achieve but I'm sure you have a reason
Not thrilled with that line up I have to say.
Moyes reverts to type yet AGAIN.It's astonishing. The system we tried vs Villa at home that we've now dropped is the same system we tried successfully away at Upton Park and then dropped to disastrous consequences IMO. What is it about the manager who can't even stick with a system that appears to work?

Mental post.
If he'd kept the creative players in and they got trounced he'd be getting it tight on here and when he looks to be setting up more defensively against the greatest team in the world he still cops shit. He can't win.
As for wanting your team to lose in a Champions League quarter final...
Not being funny but City ripped us apart and they are half the side Bayern are. This isn't going to be pretty.
Meh, I would have gone with Fellaini in the hole, Moyes might as well play to his (limited) strengths. No Kagawa is pretty stupid though.
Müller is a striker when he plays that role. He will move a lot, mostly drift wide, but he's nothing like a false 9.
Sensible line-up if you ask me. 2 leg affair so no point risking it too early. Creative players on bench should he need to change it.
Should be Kagawa instead of Fellaini.
Yep, with Valencia beating up & down the right!
Forced into playing that defence due to injuries, but why isn't Kagawa playing? He deserves a chance and we could use him to help maintain possession the few times we're likely to get it. Fellaini has been abysmal against all the big teams this year, I expect that trend to continue.
Sums up Moyes' philosophy sadly.
Worried about Fellaini tonight, may very well get himself sent off.
No offence, but if that didnt work out, you'd probably say Moyes cant get the best out of him. Would that be an honest assessment man?
Perversely at least we know if it works and we play well tonight, we'll never, ever play this system again
Not sure if I want to see this match...
Mint replies to my post lads. Wrong forum? Not at all. I hope they completely show us up to be as average as the manager we have cluelessly frantically waving his arms around on the touch line. My grandad, a red since the 30's every time he sees him on the touchline turns away in disgust.
Wanting the best for your club is not short term qualifying for a semi final, it's ridding yourself of a football vampire

Kagawa instead of Fellaini? Are you high? We'd get completely overrun (though we probably will anyway).
Of course he will. He won't get away with his elbows and persistent fouling here.
Valencia vs Alaba will be an important match up.
I don't think he'll produce the goal or the cross we need but I think he's the only one physically capable of matching up to Alaba.

My first thought as well. Would rather fletcher near Carrick.
Yeah can't help but think he's bottled it, but I suppose I should wait and see how it pans out.
He can play the role doing everything - playing striker, winger, no. 10 - you never know...
Or a ghost...
Line up is fine already from giggs.
Why giggs. He'll get walked over

Wanting the best for your club is to beat Bayern Munich tonight. Anything otherwise is completely daft, this result will do nothing to change the board's mind, especially if City and Liverpool didn't.
1:9 with United scoring first!
