In attack alone, Wayne Rooney, Dimitar Berbatov, Federico Macheda, Danny Welbeck and Mame Biram Diouf are all competing for a start.

Man United: Lindegaard, Jones, Evra, Ferdinand, Vidic, Anderson, Carrick, Young, Park, Rooney, Berbatov.

Good to see they're giving young guns Keller and Mondragon a run out!

Just a reminder that MUTV is only free to air up until kick off tonight just in case anyone is counting on it for watching the game!

It's on pretty late so I'm guessing that's why the low turnout!

Strange...

Jones at RB I presume. Should be interesting to see how he gets on.

Mitch Connor

shows we are lacking a full back - which is something I have been saying since we sold Brown AND O'Shea. Will be a worry through the season - considering we have had a mass of defensive injuries over the last couple of seasons.

nicklauski

Nice words from Thierry about Scholsey.

Will be interesting to see how he plays there tonight. He seems to like to run with the ball and go past his man but not sure how his crossing will be

nicklauski

A bit like Beckham Headshot, I think they went to the US a couple of years too early.

nicklauski

Chico has been given the all clear and is resting back at the hotel. Doubt he'll even play at Barca to be honest.

Seems to be 2. Was sure it was 1:30 and even an app I have for match scores has it down for 1:30

miralize

De Gea not even on the bench. Pity,but not surprised. Lindy & Amos did welll so far, it would be a shame to not let us see them play again. De Gea also has experience v Barcelona

Paul Tergat

I love Fortune, proper legend that lad

liveonlinefooty is perfect and is always perfect. It is a subscription service and works out at about 30 a year and is so worth not having to search for streams the whole time. Its MUTV coverage tonight

MSL ftw

sounds like a decent atmosphere there.

I've still got MUTV, but its probably cause its not 2am yet.....

David is tearing us apart!

Words can't describe how much I love watching David Beckham play. Definitely my favourite ever non-Sunderland player.
