I already said no...

Who says I was talking to you this time?

[pgr17]

could prove to be a very interesting line-up with Giggs, Evra, Rooney, Park and Fletcher all missing. one eye definitely has to be on the liverpoo match so i could see a very different back-four. while this game is important it is not more important than the match on sunday. hopefully we'll pull out the win.

by the way, is this Corry Evan's first call-up to the first team squad?

Acoording to wiki, he was on the bench against Hull at the back-end of last season.

She lied.

With Van der Sar coming back against Bolton, I was half-wondering if we might just rest him for this one before facing Liverpool, easing in him back in on a gradual basis. It wouldn't have been unusual for him to miss a group stage game in this competition either, although that's usually been at home or after we've qualified. Guess the fact that he's on the plane means he likely starts and with the others that are out, can't say I'm displeased.

Finally, a CL game i can watch without skipping a class.

How long is Fletch out for and with what ?
Probably something like that with Valencia for Welbeck.
----------VDS-------------
Brown/Rafael---Rio---Vidic----Fabio

Welbeck---Carrick---Scholes--Nani

-------Owen----------Berba----

Van der Sar, Kuszczak, Foster; Neville, Rafael, O'Shea, Ferdinand, Vidic,
Brown, J Evans, Fabio; Valencia, Scholes, Carrick, C Evans, Anderson, Nani;
Owen, Berbatov, Macheda, Welbeck.

Scholes and Carrick are locks to start.

It would seem like a good match for Brown, Fabio and Welbeck to get time from the start and possibly Macheda off the bench.

Mark González will miss the match for CSKA
