Now, Scholes...

Knee surgery on Tuesday, six weeks out.

So the midfield pool currently is: Veron, Butt, Giggs, Beckham, Chadwick, Djordic, Stewart, Pugh.

Currently out: Keane, Scholes, Fortune.

The 4-5-1 is dead for the time being, unless he uses Ole in the hole.

I think/thought Djordic is on loan somewhere....

[BuffloSoldier]

Nope.

And with Beckham out for tomorrow, the lineup should be very interesting...

[Soccerholic]

Veron, Butt, Giggs, and Chadwick are the obvious choices today with all the other players out. Not a bad midfield for having 4 midfielders injured. I won't be sorry to see the 4-5-1 disappear. It seems to me that there are more goal scoring opportunities in the 4-4-2, particularly for Ruud.

Becks may start tonight after all. Ricardo might make his first appearance on the 1st team also.
