Team v Spurs - The Official Thread

I'm not picking a team 'til fergie does his press conference at 9asm and says who the £#%&! is fit.

why didn't you start the thread after 9 then?

Foster

Fletcher
Vidic
Chester
O Shea

Nani
Scholes
Possebon (tho he will play Gibson instead of Park and if 2 wingers of sort he will play GIbson instead of Possebon)
Park

Welbeck
Tevez

Game on Tuesday much more important, hence resting G Nev as played 2 in a row. No chance to rest Vidic in this one, unless Fabio is fit.

Didn't want to, hope it hasn't massively inconvenienced you that I started it early. Others can pick a team if they like by the way, that's completely up to them, Flowers of Manchester already has, which is fine.

vds (experienced and can help organise the defence)
fletcher
vidic
o'shea
fabio
park
scholes/giggs (depending on how fresh giggs is)
carrick (had a rest the other weekend, need his defensive nous)
ronnie
berbles
tevez

it did actually. I always open the official team threads with anticipation and excitement. When your suggested team wasn't there I was gutted.

Well for that I am deeply sorry, I hope that later on my posting of a team, some of your disappointment dissipates somewhat.

Right given Fergie's statement that "The ones who are out [for the Spurs game] are Rio Ferdinand, Anderson, Nani, Rafael, Patrice Evra, Wayne Rooney, Jonny Evans and Ji-sung Park [hamstring injury].", I'll go with :-

VDS
G Nev
Chester
Vidic
Fabio
Tosic
Carrick
Fletcher
Ronnie
Berbie
Tevez

Swap O'Shea with Chester and that could be spot on.

Does that mean Wes is fit?

I'll be shocked if Fabio starts, or is even in the squad for the matter HE wasn't even on the bench t'other night.

Why are you angry?

What are Fergies view on the cup this year, haven't really heard him chat about it much.....Surely he realises the league is the priority...Still nice to progress, so if Wes is fit...id go with this..

Experienced side and will canter through to the next round 2-1

VDS
Nev
Wes
Vidic
O'shea
Ronnie
Carrick
Fletcher
Giggs
Berbie
Tevez

Rather than stick square pegs into round holes (Fletcher at right back for example) can we just not bite the bullet and play one or two youth players? It would at the very least ensure we had a balanced side. Just a thought.

Tosic is more likely than Fabio i'd think, he was on the bench on wednesday at least. Anyway, I really don't lknow who will or won't start, just know who I'd like to see, hence my selection.
