    Carrick in defence (marking Carroll ffs), Fletcher and Fellaini midfield. David Moyes = Football Genius.

    2-1 WHU on that basis so, Carroll with both of theirs.

    On a positive note, Nani on the bench.

    He is obviously not doing it by choice.

    I am looking forward to seeing Mata, Kagawa and Rooney together.

    Bizarre team selection for United. Still, glad to see Kagawa get a start.

    Moyes on team: " I am asking Michael Carrick and Marouane Fellaini to both fill in at centre-back today."

    Is he drunk?

    Moyes must be concentrating on the Champions league

    The United game plan is to hold the ball in midfield because that defense will conceed multiple times. :-(

    On the other hand, SHINJIIIIIIIIIIII! <3

    If he went fel/carrick CBs and kept a clean sheet we would people calling him a footballing genius, and not opposing fans! I ws worried with no CB in the 18 apart from Jones, according Moyesie we have 3

    10 minutes before kick off and no one really knows what our CB pairing will be. The only way to tell will be at kick off.

    Looking forward to seeing our front 4. With RVP out for a few weeks, its important that Mata plays the #10 role behind Rooney.

    That Man U defence.

    Big Andy to score anytime 12/5

    I'll have some of that.

    NBCSN saying Moyes said he'll play a mixture of Carrick and Fell at CB with Jones. Take turns to give Carroll a kicking :pac:

    I'd rather Kagawa in the 10 role in anticipation of Bayern.

    Very odd, only Evra on the bench from a defenders pov.

    Just noticed that.

    weird or am I missing something?

    injuries and this gets real interesting.

    That is just a recipe for disaster. How can you interchange a CB and a CM?

    You know the way Pep sometimes plays Javi Martinez at CB

    Well this is Moyes' take on it, the man is a master tactician

    It'll all depend on who can handle Carroll better I guess if Carrick can't Fell will try if he can't then well, we are screwed.

    He probably just means Fellaini sitting deeper than Fletch and dropping in the back when needed.

    Mata should do better there.
