We are certain of this?

Lads, Mata cannot play tomorrow because he played for Chelsea in the competition and is cup tied.

Anyone think Evra could be rested tomorrow? I'd love to see Fabio get a game.

NaiveMelodies

My inside man tells me Mata is playing tomorrow.

Your Airbag

Mata will surely start. I mean why wouldn't he?

Its not like there is some rule within the rules of this knockout stage of the european cup that is tieing Mata to a team he previously played for in the same cup. A rule that keeps someone cup tied, ha, I'd like to see that. Why would such a rule even exist.

So now that we have cleared that up I'm really excited for the match and will be wearing my Mata jersey all evening.

Who is this Mata guy?

Rayne Wooney

Imagine Mata's sad little face when we win the CL and he's sitting on the bench.

It'll bring a tear to my eye

The_Kew_Tour

No

Say he will be untouchable on the pitch tomorrow night. Invincible even.

It would be a disgrace if he was dropped for the final.

Did you know that "Juan Mata" spelled backwards is also "Juan Mata"

Nalz

No

wtf???

thelad95

No

Why would mata start? Surely scholes or ronaldo might be better suited? I expect John O'Shea ahead of Ferdinand as well ;-)

What a clever boy, keeping the opposition manager guessing about our team sheet until the last moment.

Now I REALLY can't wait to see him run out.

Liam O

Typical Moyes. Signs 37m player and doesn't even play him in the CL.

Moyes out!

scudzilla

No

a big IF here, and i know it wont happen but......

If we win the CL and Liverpool finish 4th, doesn't that mean we get CL football next year and the 4th place team drop to the Europa Cup

If so that would be just too funny :pac::pac:

If United under Ferguson couldn't win it in the last two finals United got to, there isn't a snowballs chance in Hell of Moyes winning it. United should get to the next round but you would be worried who you might face after that.

At this stage anyway Liverpool could nick 3rd or 2nd as there is only 3 points in it.

If Liverpool can fluke it against Milan in Istanbul then i'm sure it's possible the stars could align and Moyes could pull it off

J. Marston

We're going to batter Olympiakos, 1-4.

Shinji hat-trick.

Liverpool didn't fluke it in in the six games before the final. Still stranger things have happened. Maybe it might be a good idea to put a cheeky 100 quid on United to win it? You could be smiling from ear to ear come May.

Hank Scorpio

No

United should look at Vertonghen, can play CB/LB and has hinted at leaving Spurs, very classy player.

Lucas Hood

No

Has hinted at leaving over not qualifying for the CL, which we won't be in unless we win it. So I doubt it's an option.

Classy player alright though.

Maximus Alexander

Here lads, there's a fella in work saying Mata is not in the squad for tonight. What's the story???

NaiveMelodies

I'm now hearing Mata has failed a late fitness test and has been sent home by Moyes.

That fella is a reprobate and a cad. You should withdraw your association with the gentleman forthwith.

we have to think of Juan more reason about why mata is not playing tonight

Moyes was disappointed with his lack of crossing on Saturday.

Giggsy11

Not sure why Moyes plays Smalling as RB when we have Fabio who is very good RB and he proved it when he got run of games. Smalling is good defensively but offers almost nothing in attack.

Macca07

Hococop wrote: »

Is he cup-tied?

Moyes not playing Mata? What the hell is wrong with him? I have tried to stick up for him through his dismal season, but this is just Juan step too far! Mata is our best in form player - should be starting!

Joke!!

Mitch Connor

No

DDG
Raf----Ferdinand-Vidic--Evra

Carrick

Fellaini----Cleverley
Valencia

RVP---Rooney

DDG

Smalling----Rio-Evans--Evra

Giggs

Rio playing 2 games in 3 days? I don't think he is capable of it now.

Would love to see

De Gea

Rafael Smalling Vidic Evra

Carrick Fellaini

Januzaj Rooney Kagawa

RVP

Johner

Mata surely won't be happy with this? He left Chelsea to get off the bench, very strange decision from Moyes.
