I'm looking forward to The European Cup starting again this week
I know it's become fashionable in recent years to claim that it is now less prestigious then LDV Vans Trophy, but I still think it's a great competition. Starts properly now, with the group stages done with.
I'm feeling a little more confident after our stunning win yesterday. Would like to see Anderson play in a similar role as against Arsenal. Hopefully we'll play with the same intensity and positive attitude as we did on Saturday. Hargreaves, Ronaldo and Giggs to come in for Fletcher, Park and Nani respectively. However, I wouldn't begrudge either Nani or The Dazzler retaining their places Also, I think Inter have a great chance of turning the scousers over at Anfield, especially if Torres doesn't play. Of course, with them out of every domestic competition, they may rise to the occasion. But hopeful they won't! What's the news on Milans injuries? Any of their big players (other then Ronaldo) set to miss the trip to north london? |

I'd make a few changes for the Lyon game, personally. I'd definitely bring Scholes and Ronnie in for Fletcher and Park. After that, for me the only other tough call is whether to bring Carlitos back in for Nani. Unfortunately, I fear Fergie will take out one from Carrick and Anderson, along with Park, Fletcher and Nani and put all four of Hargreaves, Scholes, Giggs and Tevez in.
Whatever happens, we've got a great set of options and potentially a very strong bench. Kaka and Gattuso both started against Parma on Saturday. Pato didn't feature in the squad though. Neither did Seedorf, not sure if that to rest him or due to injury. |

I think given how well the midfield performed against Arsenal (winning the ball on the half way line a number of times), playing in a similar style would be best - Lyon are a passing side after all. Carrick and Anderson were both fantastic, can't see how the manager could justify dropping either of them. Would also allow Tevez a little break, fresh and ready to bag a few against the barcodes.

I guess we'll have a better idea of what sort of side he intends to play after the pre match press conference. But I suspect Anderson will start, otherwise I doubt he would have been substituted. |
