Date : 11/1
Time: 2:45 (EST) 7:45 UK
Venue: Parken Stadium
TV: uefa.com, Sky Sports !

3 points on Wednesday should confirm our place in the Knock-Out stage, no reason to change the lineup from Saturday , but if Evra is not fit would love to see Gabby get another 90mins ! 2-0 will do me! ( Ronaldo and Rooney)

OK ! :D


Good news ! we haven't lost a match this year when I did the match thread ! Make of that what you will

[GrodZilla]

SAF said he'll play his first choice XI and I see no reason not to. I'd have liked to be at this match. But when a game sells out in 30 min, us foreigners don't have much of a chance ;)

[Stud83]

That's one of the games where we should field the most attacking 4-4-2. No reason not to.

[yikchi]

I expect Fletcher and Smith will get some playing time in this match.

And I fully expect Rooney to end his C/L drought !!

[The Guv'nor]

I think its on Sky

Glad you started the thread NM, not only 'cause you're a good luck charm :) but becasue it was about time someone did. By the way, it's only on Sky over here, no ITV.

Any news on Evra yet? I just had a look on Sky Sports website, the M.E.N. and the official site but couldn't see anything. It'll be good to give Gabby a game should he not make it anyway and let battle commence between the two of 'em to see who can hold down their place.

I'm another who's encouraged by Fergie's words, a repeat of Saturday would go down nicely indeed.

The Parken Stadium......hmmmm, rings a bell. Isn't that where we demolished Brondby in the group stage in 98/99? Hopefully a good omen.

Fixed !


For those in the US ...you can buy it on uefa.com for $10! Think I'll do that !

[Potomac Red Devil]

I would go with the lineup against Bolton, except put Heinze in for Evra.

Sub Fletcher and Smith at 60 minutes for Carrick and Saha.

It's LIVE on Setanta in the US also ;)

Also on Star Sports (China) and Guangdong for all you streamers out there.

Well that's they're saying on here (http://www.football4less.com/schedules/schedules_01112006.html) right now but we all know how unreliable these schedules can be at times. :rolleyes:

Has anyone used the new UEFA Official streaming? I want to know if it's decent quality, may start getting them while I'm at work.

just tried it for the canned programming and it was awesome. not tried it live.

[Moederneuker]

Trash them I say

[dannytoone]

Well...we went there thinking it would be an easy win and it turned out to be a tough draw. Take your A game and you can win, but don't expect it to be easy. It might turn out that way, but Copenhagen sure as hell suprised us.

[Achtung]

We go through either with a win or a draw and a Celtic win. Shouldn't be too many surprises out there, although I wouldn't be shocked to see a slightly more defensive formation on the road in Europe.

[johno]

I hope Jones is on the bench and can get serious minutes in place of Scholes. That's my only wish for this game, that and no injuries to our playes. I don't even care about the result much I want Jonesy to get some minutes.

Road or not, as we proved this past weekend, you go for it against inferior competition. It's still grass, there's still a ball, each side still starts with 11 players, it's just in a different venue. I don't see the need to change tactics if they are working simply because the archtecture of the stadium is different.

[sdotsom]

I think we are going to go for it. If a change is to be made from the Bolton starting lineup, I'd put Fletch in and remove one of the 2 wingers, Ronaldo and Giggs. Also put Heinze at LB. We should do whatever we have to in this match to clinch qualification and hopefully 1st place, and then use whatever games left to blood youngsters.

[Lancashire Lad]

Do you think we will win? I am not sure about our form!:)

[jasper9]

And I fully expect Rooney to end his C/L drought !!
Rooney normally plays as a winger in the champions league so it isnt a drought. Hopefully Fergies learnt his lesson and studied Rooney as a player who is a playmaker basically the 5th midfielder who is devastating from the centre but gets frustrated on the wings.
