    Sylvan-Blake is supposed to be on the bench as well. Add Ricardo and Spector is running out of spots.

    If he's not on the bench I'd say it's very likely a loan deal has been worked out. He's probably on the bench though.

    How stupid would SAF look if he wastes an opportunity to play his youngsters and still manages to lose to Arsenal's?

    While I'd give an edge to United's back four in this game I think Arsenal will be more dangerous.

    everytime I read something about rossi, it starts off as yank-abroad? only for somebody to quickly say he's italian and not a yank.

    this is ridiculous. neg rep for asking to leave it alone? that's harsh. I must profess, I'm in agreement with calling the kid a yank, until he steps on the pitch for the sr. italian side, he could very well play for the usmnt some day.

    I know Spector was blamed for a reserves goal last week but damn!!!

    He must be hurt or on his way out of Manchester (I hope).

    Of course, knowing that crazy ass SAF he may be in the line-up tis weekend.

    I dont understand this, its not like he was shaky when he played league games earlier this year he was very much impressive and even earning man of the match against Everton.

    Why would SAF do this? Maybe I'm underestamating ManU's other players but from starting at the beginning of season due to injuries to not making the bench for Carling Cup, this just seems odd

    As I said earlier 1 of 4 things is going on.

    1. He's hurt
    2. He's being loaned out soon.
    3. He's playing this weekend.
    4. He's being punished for allowing a goal in the reserves this past week.

    Obviously, there could be other reasons, but I would put my money on one of those four.

    Bellion scores in the first minute.

    Run after a miscue, nice finish straight through the Arse keeper.

    What a waste. We need to get these guys to MLS where they belong.

    Howard knocks down a corner and Arsenal can't make anything out of it.
