Ivanovic will cover for Terry/Cahill occasionally while Ivan, Luis and Azpil will share the full back spots ( possibly depending on the opposition like Pellegrini does with Clichy/Kolarov). I'm still hoping to go the goalkeeper route into their defence but that's as clear as mud too! At least if one of the keepers wins that battle he should be a certainty for league games. Personally I think ivan may be the one benched this weekend. I think Azpil is the most secure initially. But that's just gut feeling.

What do ye think lads? in terms of captaincy and the new bonus points coming into it i think there is more to gain having a gk as captain. And with Uniteds first 8 or so games a few clean sheets could be on the cards! what do yous think?

PARlance wrote: » I haven't heard of any new system. And I'm guessing this place would be abuzz with discussions on it. Goalkeepers didn't work out great from it. CB's with CS's that passed the ball around a bit, won plenty of headers seemed to be the biggest beneficiaries of the changes last year.
