I reckon we see some of the players that haven't been involved much so far get a game in this one. Fabio/Valencia - Evans - Smalling/Vidic - Evra ---------------Fellaini----------Anderson------------ Zaha----------------Kagawa--------------------Nani ----------------------RVP----------------------------- Expecting something like this maybe. Hopefully Januzaj on the bench.
So some press is reporting that Kagawa has the "flu" and may not feature tomorrow. Right. Seriously Moyes is emptying the excuse playbook. Also, a chance that Rooney may come back although it's called a risk.
Its probably going to be the same team that played vs. Swansea. Not sure if Rafa is back yet [doubt it], but the only other change I could see would be Ashley Young coming on the right for Nani or Valencia. Hopefully Nani gets the nod.
ESPN FC @ESPNFC37m Man Utd XI to face Crystal Palace: De Gea, Fabio, Ferdinand, Vidic, Evra, Valencia, Carrick, Anderson, Young, Rooney, Van Persie #MUFC #CPFC
LINE-UPS - Man Utd v Crystal Palace (1245 BST) Man Utd: De Gea, Fabio Da Silva, Ferdinand, Vidic, Evra, Carrick, Anderson, Valencia, Rooney, Young, van Persie. Subs: Evans, Hernandez, Cleverley, Zaha, Fellaini, Amos, Januzaj. Crystal Palace: Speroni, Mariappa, Gabbidon, Delaney, Moxey, Dikgacoi, Jedinak, Campana, Puncheon, Chamakh, Gayle. Subs: Phillips, O'Keefe, Kebe, Alexander, Jerome, Bannan, Guedioura. Young, Anderson
If Moyes had any flair, he would've started Januzaj and Hairball, instead of Young and that fatass-headless-portuguese-chicken. Maybe even a Zaha appearance... anything but Young, baby
I am worried that he keeps playing Rio and Vidic every game, Valencia and Young ? How many games will they be given.
I apologize for defending Moyes on Kagawa. The fact that Rooney is starting against Crystal Palace, with the injury, ridiculous.
This is what I am wondering as well. If that's his first choice pairing in the back it's odd to see them start here ahead of a Tuesday UCL match. I wouldn't think they'd really be available for a Tuesday match after a Saturday. Certainly Fergie didn't use them that way the last few years.
