Gabby Heinze all the way for me Rune, Evra hasn't really shown what he can do yet, and if he cant displace Moon-Head Silvestre from left back he's gonna have no chance taking Heinze's spot.
Well out of the two players, Heinze is the better one but thats not the point. Evra is only gonna get better if he continues to get games. Vidic is fitting in nicely cuz he's regularly playing now. We gotta keep doing the same with Evra. Unless we try him on the right.:-k

PS. CHELSEA DREW!?!?!?!?!
Things are looking good already. But we cant get our hopes up too much. We can just as easily drop some points somewhere.
 
Decent performance.

Lovely finish from Saha and a nice ball from O'Shea for the second. Lets hope the title race opens up again for the final few weeks. :D
 
he's crazy on fire!! LOL

and who expected a 3 striker appearance in the 2nd half? lolz....great eye from SAF putting on Saha to equalize, and keeping him while having Ruud on to score the winner....have to give it up to that man!
 
Good win yesterday, United gave Bolton a 4 minuet blitz where they created about 4/5 chances which lead to the goal, great attacking football

Its going to be intresting on who Fergie picks upfront for Arsenal, start them all I say!

He will play Ruud and Rooney!

Think Saha is staying unless SAF has a suprise target????
 
I think Saha is looking more consistant but the moment Ruud came up, the way he started bringing in other players with his lay offs was pretty good.
Saha is good because of his speed and can break through thanks to his pace. Ruud on the other hand is better for counter attacks imo.
 
I think the Arsenal game is going to be the decider if we can push Chelski. TBH I dont' see them losing more than our game, so it's all about a couple draws. If we lose against arsenal, I worry we'll give up, and pool might even jump us. Should be a great game, can't wait to see Fabregas again, he's plaing ridiculously good right now.
 
Why are you worried ?

The game is at Old Trafford, United have a great recent home record against Arsenal. The amount of chances United are creating in a game is frightening, Arsenal are playing great at the moment too but just look at their away record all season its shocking and I think that will be the telling factor
 
But their very recent form has been good. If they play like that against us, it'll definately be a tough game.

I reckon he will stick with Rooney and Saha for the Arsenal game, Saha's goal yesterday was pure class

SAF said he wanted to leave Ruud fresh so read into that how you will

The team looked alot better with Ruud linking up the play
 
yeah...but one week...i think SAF is refreshing Ruud for the Arsenal and Chelsea game...so, see him start those games....

but then, Saha coming on as a sub doesn't really give any power or extra push...unlike how Ruud gave us that extra push and form to win the game yesterday

I suppose but if anyone has to change their style of play its going to be them. I cant see Arsenal going full all out attack at Old Trafford
i have to disagree,a couple of weeks ago i would stand by those comments,but lately a different Arsenal been playing.Manyoo has always made us work hard just to reach null.BUT some Arsenal players started to play as a team thanks to the CL.

I think some ManU players are going to be taken back alittle.We are not the same team and injuries became a blessing letting the younger fire up ones perform.(defence wise)

but it would be nice if you can stick`it to chelski.The World would thank you:lol:
 
I'm not sure if anyone mentioned this but i was flicking through the paper last night and according to reliable media source "news of the world" C. Ronaldo wants to go to Spain. And in all honesty, as much as that newspaper does chat a load of bollocks a majority of the time this one seemed believable. He said how the Spainsh league is the best as it's less physical and more technical. And it's a supposed £15m move to Madrid that's tempting him.

But as it's become apparent over the last month we can now effectively play the 4-5-1 formation. When we've played it before against you, especially in the cup final it was just a way of making sure we didn't get carved open when trying to go all out attack.

Contrasting loyalty's though cause even though I want us to win the game I want you lot to win the league and hope they finish potless! I feel all dirty now and may go shower ;)
 
Who'd of ever guessed the whole country would be rooting for United? Behold the power of Jose Mourinho!

Should be a really good game this week, hopefully the lads are up for it. Where is Wes Brown out of interest? His partnership with Rio was going well I thought. Hoping the formation will be:

---------VDS----------
-Gary--Rio--Wes--Silvestre-
--------O'Shea--------
------Giggs-----------
-Ronaldo------Park-----
----Rooney--RVN--------

But won't be too unhappy if Saha starts, as his pace will do nicely against senderos if he's on...

If Arsenal go for a 4-5-1 at Old Trafford, I reckon it will be one way traffic, United will have loads of possession but then will Arsenal hold on aswell as they did in the FA Cup final ?

I'd play this team:
-----------------------------------
-----------Van Der Sar-------------
--Neville---Rio-----Vidic---Silvestre-
-----------O'Shea------------------
------------------Giggs-------------
--Ronaldo---------------Richardson-
---------RVN--------Rooney--------
------------------------------------

Vidic has been playing along with Rio for a while now so that doesnt need changing. And I thought we could leave Saha and Park on the bench cuz Arsenal have shown in the past that they can get tired before the end of the game so bringing on those two near the end would be hard for Arsenal to handle.
 
I'd play the same team as Rune.RVN knows how to run Arsenal's defence ragged.I'm really impressed that Sheasy has been silently confident in that holding role.My main worry is concerning Arsenal slick passing game.They break through the middle all the time.The goal we conceded at Bolton was through the middle and Rio's defending was abysmal at that moment.All this talk about how Wenger wants to help Mourinho is making me sick.Lets shut that wrinkled face french twat once and for all with a victory
 
Mansion shirt sponsorship deal fell through. £70m over 4 years...largest in history, we better have something else pretty impressive lined up!!!
