It'll be an even narrower than normal 4-3-3 imo.
park must be gutted....shame..
I'm feeling good!
Come on Boys!

Tough shit, this is the champions league final.
i think not having park is more to do with the physical side of things..
Well, it had to be someone, but it's surely most be hard for Park after starting both games against Barcelona. I guess Fergie believes he's just too lightweight to face Chelsea.
3 in the middle to battle against their 3.
shame about Park not even on the bench, he played every minute of the 360 minutes in the quarterfinals and the semi-finals...
we'd be ok with that
That's the team we'd start with all the time I reckon if we were ever in the position where we had all of the squad fit.
I hope it isn't 4-3-3, as alluded to on Sky, Rooney is nowhere near as effective on the left.
That's what I think too. And i really thought that we'd try to stretch things in this game.
Is this confirmed?
Holy Trinity start though.
Roonaldez !!!!

lads i am a massive park fan. love him to bits. but this is not a time for sentimentality. park is BRILLIANT against euro opposition/arsenal etc. But chelsea have TOO much power throughout the squad for park to be effective.
they also don't retain the ball AS WELL as top euro sides.
this is the right move.
Park will wholly deserve his CL medal if we win. CL is more than just the final, and park has truely played his part and hopefully feels that he fully deserves his medal if we win. Because i certainly feel that. Chin up park, you are the man.
4-3-3 with the holy trinity!!!!
Anderson is on the bench
No Saha
Some of us are going nuts alreadyId imagine the exclusion of Park is down to Chelsea being a big strong physical side, Park gets knocked off the ball too easily sometimes.
We won't set up with the same 433 they do, it won't be two central midfielders with a defensive midfielder behind, we'll either have Tevez dropping off the front to mark Makalele or Scholes pushed up to do the same.
Great Line-up btw.
Pretty much what everyone was hoping for.

Park should leave the club for his own future.
great tagline
1 hour to go
F'ckin hell Saha. I hope Fergie hasnt put you on the bench because you are injured again.
I think Hargreaves will play slightly ahead of Carrick and Scholes.
feel sorry for park, but thats a great line up! Right Im off see you after...United!
I agree about Tevez, but I reckon Scholes will be quite deep.
Pretty much agree with that.
Poor Park. I guess with Giggs and Nani on the bench we figure we don' t need another winger, but you have to feel for him. Probably 'deserves' to be there, but you can't always give the nod to the one who 'deserves' it.
Interesting to see that Tevez is starting.

GET INNNNN line up is awesome, thank you fergie!
who exactly will be playing on the opposite wing to ronaldo? No giggs nani or park. I dont think we are that balanced. Its an offensive formation but i think we lack some width
Yeah, gutted for him - I thought he might even start, his recent form was that good.
Think it must be cos Saha injured so SAF made a call that Nani is more positive than Park if we needed an attacking substitution.
Fletcher offers a "Park' type consolidating substitution if we wanted to play out a lead to final time.
With Giggs and Nani on the bench Ferguson must have felt that another wide man was unnecessary and left out Park. Still don't get why Saha isn't on the bench.
4-4-2?
Just noticed Chelsea bench ... Anelka, Shevchenko, Kalou .... looks very strong!
We need to win this hard and early.

We're going for it.No excuses.
I couldn't be happier with the lineup.
