    Strong Chelsea side.

    Ferguson will have no bother changing Giggs at the break for one of the CM, I think he could be matching them 4-5-1.

    So we will have Giggs, Park , and Fletcher in the center? That sounds worse IMO


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,719 ✭✭✭✭Boggles


    Might aswell give a prediction 2-1 United (Optimisticly)

    As for the midfield, maybe Ferguson is punishing Scholes and Anderson for their lack of interest against Derby, pretty shítty time to it.

    Anyways, Best of luck, Come on ye Red Devils!.

    I'm going to go for 1-0 united park to tap into an empty net in some strange defensive chelsea mess..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,677 ✭✭✭Chong


    OMG we have to put up with that insufferable git , top top and Gary.

    No United point of view in the studio.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 54,678 ✭✭✭✭Headshot

    add a keeper and a forward and it'd be a quality 5 a side team!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,677 ✭✭✭Chong


    Rio back spasms again this morning when he woke up.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,308 ✭✭✭Pyjamarama


    If I was a united fan i would be worried with that lineup...

    Fergie just said Giggs has been unbelieveable this season... HA!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,677 ✭✭✭Chong


    Giggs is in midfield based on this seasons form and experience.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 54,678 ✭✭✭✭Headshot


    Ryan is in brilliant form

    what matches is he watching

    :rolleyes:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,908 ✭✭✭Daysha


    Fergie - Giggsys form this season has been unbelievable.

    Eh.....:confused:

    Think Richard Keys in either woudl be a weak spot.:)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,608 ✭✭✭Spud83


    My head says Chelsea 2-1, heart says united 1-0.

    Jesus christ. Giggs form has been unbelivable? I must have missed this season.

    Bizarre team selection from Fergie.

    You have to fancy the full strength Chelsea team here.

    He's not stuck. He's got loads of options on the bench!

    Knowing Karma giggs will score the winner... :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,677 ✭✭✭Chong


    Any chance Carlos can pop down to the side line and do a bit of coaching , and kick Fergie in the sack , tell him to start carrick.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,441 ✭✭✭Killme00


    We look weak in midfield...i dont understand it.

    1-0 pls

    Headshot, thats Ellie. She isnt cute or small anymore, she's a German Shepherd Stegasoarus cross


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 54,678 ✭✭✭✭Headshot


    Scolari must be delighted with that utd midfield


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,677 ✭✭✭Chong


    Its very difficult to understand a word Carragher is saying. :rolleyes:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,908 ✭✭✭Daysha


    Neither team can afford to lose, and neither team are firing on all cylinders to win.

    0-0 written all over it.

    Almost always the sane with these big matches, lots of hype and end up in a draw. Hopefully Utd just nick it though


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,591 ✭✭✭✭Aidric


    The Ferguson comments re Giggs were baffling alright. We'll miss Rio's experience at the centre of defence. Evans will have his hands full with he antics and no little skill of Drogba.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,291 ✭✭✭eclectichoney


    Looks like the Ferdinand injury could be a big problem, and I don't have much faith in Evans to carry us through to the end of the season.

    Those comments by SAF about Giggs were mad! I was in hysterics listening to it, thinking he can't be serious??! :eek:

    You lost me. United losing today means they would be one point further behind Liverpool. With the possibilty of that gap being closed to two points without Liverpool dropping any points.

    Therefore united losing would not be the end of the world

    I wouldn't be happy but the poster I responded to said we couldn't afford to lose. I'm saying we can


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,247 ✭✭✭ROCKMAN


    odds on Giggs get the winner :eek::D:pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,677 ✭✭✭Chong

    Fletcher to score first 20/1


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 46,454 ✭✭✭✭Mitch Connor


    Another case of Fergie completely screwing up the team selection. I honestly can't believe he has selected Giggs over Carrick. It is just unbelievable. I am gutted he has done this as without Rio it was going to be tough enough, but to select Giggs and Neville is basically handing Chelsea the game before it starts.

    Really gutted - this game puts us out of the title race, and it is all Fergies fault.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,019 ✭✭✭✭adox


    I actually think Giggs has done ok when he has played in the centre this season, as long as he has some legs beside him. Its when hes been out wide or up front that hes been annonymous.

    Lets hope Evans doesnt get isolated with Drogba too often.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 54,678 ✭✭✭✭Headshot


    hopefully Webb has a good game today


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,148 ✭✭✭✭Raskolnikov


    0-0 is my prediction.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,608 ✭✭✭Spud83

    No it doesn't


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,677 ✭✭✭Chong


    He might not be the best this season, but I still love seeing Gaz come out as Captain.

    HE a true United man through and through.

    Do you have a crystal ball? Could you tell me the score it will be so I can get on with other things. Thanks.
