    I think the team will be pick with height/battle as a factor, so
    VDS
    -O'Shea--Rio--Vidic--Evra-
    ---Carrick--Anderson----
    -Ronaldo--Rooney--Nani-

    Tbh I think people here are worrying too much about Delaps throw in's, we should be worried about our own team here, we are the Premiership and Europeon champions.
    We will win comfortably 3 or 4 I say.

    No Rio is a big worry. Must be injured - anyone hear anything?

    If we go ahead early then maybe we'll finally see this "Manucho" chap in action for the last 20 or so mins!

    Good oul team

    Wonder why Rio is out :confused: A kick in the arse for being so rusty as of late? Evans is pretty good in the air (and the same height as Rio anyway), so I'm not too concerned tbh. I guess this is a baptism of fire for him actually!

    Looks like Fergie went for the 'tall lads' approach, as prophesied by some of ye, by shticking in Johno

    Looking forward to this

    He made his prem debut for us against Chelsea, away i think. Definitely played, not sure if it was his prem debut for us though.

    Ah right fair enough that was probably more challenging! :D But this will be quite testing too, if they get a few Delap throws.

    Stunning Free, but Sorenson is a tool.

    Should've saved it but if you hit the target there's always a chance.

    The swerve did it to be honest, he moved his knees left and couldn't shift them again to the right to get any lift from his feet. Probably shoulda done better, but the swerve on target results in goals.

    it moved a good bit but keeper should have done better. That's the loudest I have heard viva ronaldo this season and it was well deserved for his 100th man utd goal.

    Great start for utd but they really need to put in a 90 min performance for once this season.

    Here comes the bomb.

    TVU player download and install and its on socccer 2
    its really good downloads fast and has never let me down for a match, it always has the top 4 teams games on it on one of the channels..
    would recommend it to anyone who doesn;t have sky or setanta very handy and saves trying to look for links.
