Excited for this.

2 excellent players.
edit: Note that Shinji refers to Shunsuke as Shun-san (in a non-joking manner). It is basically like calling someone 'Sir' in English. It is the opposite of 'kun', (eg. Sergio Kun Aguero, whom his friends called Kun due to the name of a character on a Japanese show they used to watch), which means 'boy' & is generally used for those of inferior stature (mostly youngsters).
Amazing, amazing attitude. Almost all Japanese are like that, but for Shinji - a millionaire, world famous superstar being abroad for a few years now - it is very nice to see.
San is just a polite for Mr. I remember contacting some time ago a Japanese university and the email reply (from a PhP professor) was calling me [my surname]-san. I think it is more a Japanese way rather than Shinji-san being super polite.
Team according to Twatter:
I'm quite excited now, great to see Moyes playing the kids!
Carrick apparently limping around yesterday in training, not in squad at all.
De Gea
Fabio - Jones - Evans - Evra
Cleverley - Anderson
Zaha - Januzaj - Lingard
RVP

Cleverley was excellent against the A-league, noticeably authoritative and almost Carrick-like. He was probably the one 'running the match' more than anyone else. So it'll be interesting to see him do Carrick's job today (because let's face it, Anderson isn't going to.)
Oh wow, didn't realise this was happening soon. Ill off work, but this will give me something to do rather than lay in bed 
Great to see Januzaj getting time on the pitch with RVP. Gives a manager a better idea of how a player could do in the first time.
Annoys me when too many youngsters are played as it becomes the equivalent of the reserves.

Januzaj again starting. Nice!
That's a really exciting lineup, hope it's true.
On a side note, when they gave Januzaj's year of birth during the game the other day, it hit me that he's the same age as my little brothers. It's incredible for a kid his age to be playing in games like this, travelling around the world and so on.

That's such a stunning front 4 
That intelligence!
This will be an entertaining display from our attack - I can already tell.

It's heavily raining.
will be great to see the kids play again. Hopefully they can impress again
river please?
Fergie's 'tactical anarchy' and unpredictable line-ups must have been a nightmare for opposition managers, but they were pretty trying on the fans too sometimes! It's quite refreshing that Moyes keeps playing basically the straight-forward 'right' line-up.
I wonder if it is somehow possible for me to watch this at work?
I take it this is being taken from Japanese broadcasters...spent the first 5 minutes staring at Shinji
anyone with a working stream?!
well that wasn't how we wanted to start
The feck is this
Who the hell made that pass?
I need a river/lake/pond etc
What a start.
Lingard I think
Fabio didnt clear the ball.
Disappointing because De Gea made an insane leap to save that first shot.
Do I take it we just conceeded a goal?
The cameraman is just making sure that Kagawa is still in his seat
There's been more shots of him than the game
Yep. Within the first minute. Some guy, apparently Lingard, hit it from the half way line BACK to our defence but it was basically a perfect through pass for their striker. He took a shot, De Gea made a fantastic leap+save - went high in the air, they headed it back in danger area, and Marquinhos (sp) volleyed it in.
I get the feeling we may be seeing that shot every 30 second or so
I'd hate to play on this pitch - its just so fast. Passes are going to literally have to go to feet otherwise it'll just slip away.
PM me a stream please if anyone has one Thanks!!!!!!!
Thanks!!!!!!!I could do with a stream if poss
Wasn't it Evra?
PM me a stream please if anyone has one
Me too
OK, I'm starting to get bored of seeing Kagawa on the bench now. Basically player-cam.
No idea, some guy above said it was Lingard so I took their word for it. They haven't showed a replay of that bit of the goal.
Januzaj close on the volley
decent strike that one, just couldn't keep it down
Januzaj just over the bar.
