Enjoyed yesterday but this is the big one. Always the epic. Dont expect anything less.

 

I think we'll see the same line up with 2 changes 1) up front - Crouch for Kuyt and 2) Finnan for Riise with Aberloa going left back.

 

Reina

 

Finnan

Carra

Hyypia

Arbeloa

 

Benayoun

Mascherano

Gerrard

Kewell

 

Crouch

Torres

 

Depending on the score, bring Babel on 60-70 min.

Can never underestimate the Mancs though - have too many potential matchwinners but I hope we go for it from the start.

Does Alonso have a chance ?

 

Can see Kuyt starting alongside Torres again.

 

I hope Alonso is not risked (assuming not ready). Also likely to be off the pace after the layoff. Am warming up to Masch and SG in the middle for this game.

Mascerano is a doubt according to the echo he hobbled out of the staduim last night in some discomfort

 

It will be a huge blow if Mascerano doesnt play, huge

 

I think we will play the same team as last night if he is fit, if he is not fit we may play torres on his own with sissoko, lucas and gerrard in the middle. I think it is to big a game to have lucas holding behind gerrard in a midfield two to be honest

no need to play crouch, kuyt and torres looked great again last night.

 

Kuyt took his goal really well.

 

I really like him as an individual and hope he proves me wrong.

 

FWIW I'd play the same team with Finnan in for Jonny Rockets.

 

I wonder if he might do a Lucas in for Kuyt type thing though

I'd be more than happy with Lucas/Gerrard if Mascherano isn't fit. He was stretchered off under a blanket and I was fearing a break but he was haring down the right wing less than 2 minues later. Tough f***** so I won't be surprised if he lines up Sunday.

Dec 28th I think

Kuyt took his goal really well.

Or Aurelio in at LB

 

Kuyt & Voronin up front for me :notrelatedtoanyforummember4:

Think he'll keep the same team

On basis he described it as a near perfect performance, I suspect you're right and he'll keep the same side, just as he did after Besiktas.

 

Personally, I'd like to see Alonso (or Lucas, if Alonso is still out injured) playing instead of Benayoun.

:nono: Benny wins us those freekicks in dangerous positions. I think we'll score from one against the mancs.

 

I'd keep the same team with the same mentality - winning at all costs :yes:

We were able to play on the counter last night because we scored so early. I'd be surprised if that happens against Utd so I think we'll need a playmaker in the middle. I also like the idea of Gerrard up against Evra.

We should go with the xmas spirit and play the xmas tree formation

 

-------------Reina-----------

Finnan Hyypia Carra Arbeloa

-----Lucas SG Masch------

--------Yossi--Kewell------

------------Torres-----------

 

Torres is the angel on top of our tree :forumisgayfortorres:

Rafa may be thinking about how to deal with Ronaldo for this

 

could be a bit scary if it's just left to Arveloa if Kewell is at left mid

 

he may go for a 5 man midfield in order to have a spare man to sort this out and put Torres up on his own

 

or we could go at them all guns blazing and play our own game

 

the only idea I don't like is the compromise with Lucas in for Benayoun, unless it means Gerrard on the right, Lucas as playmaker and Masch kicking the f*** out of any Manc that gets ideas about trying to attack us

If Mascherano is injured then Kuyt could be dropped to accomodate Sissoko and Lucas.

			   Reina
Arbeloa   Hyypia   Carragher   Riise

	  Sissoko	Lucas
Benayoun	   Gerrard		Kewell

		 Torres

The trio of Benayoun, Gerrard and Kewell can interchange to cause the Manc defense problems. Babel and Crouch to come on after 60+ minutes to grab the token goals.

Very tricky call this selection. If all are fit, I see no reason not to pick the same team, though I think Finnan might be a better bet at RB. Arbeloa to LB, but apart from that, no change. I don't see Ferguson taking risks on Sunday, will be a conservative team from them.

 

We're going to atomize them.
