    Surprised that Nani and Jones aren't travelling, didn't even know they'd picked up knocks. The travelling squad list looks strong enough to be able to cope without them.

    We have wolves away Sunday morning. Nani will be primed for that.

    Rumored that Llorente is injured, apparently he hasn't trained 3 days now. De Marcos doubtful, tough he trained a bit today. I can't help the feeling that we'll go through.

    I'm going to miss this game :fyou: Remembered too late that I invited a couple of my friends from uni to stay over for the next couple of days, and we're going out to dinner tomorrow. Forgive me, oh fellow Reds. First United game I'll miss this season (top Red)

    Jones, Nani or Anderson haven't travelled. Good to see Phil Jones get a break at least. Put the feet up son.

    I woke up thinking that this game was today :(

    Not liking the idea of starting our two best center backs either.

    Rio Ferdinand starts in Bilbao - Official Manchester United Website

    Rio Ferdinand will play against Athletic Club in the Europa League on Thursday after sitting out the home leg at Old Trafford.


    Chris Smalling is only fit enough to make the bench and, with Phil Jones not travelling, Sir Alex has revealed Ferdinand and Jonny Evans will form the heart of the defence. Rafael is set to start at right-back.

    Jones has 'flu while Anderson also faces a spell on the sidelines after picking up a fresh injury soon after returning to action.

    "Jones went down with 'flu yesterday," said Sir Alex. "Ando could be out for four or five weeks due to his hamstring. Some hamstrings are relatively straightforward but we have to wait and see how he is in the next week or so to get a better idea of where we stand with him [in terms of recovery]."

    Athletic Club's energy in the first leg impressed the manager but he feels the 3-2 deficit is far from unassailable.

    "It's a difficult tie for us," the boss continued. "Bilbao have a tremendous advantage after winning at Old Trafford. It's a challenge but not one that is beyond us.

    "Our record away from home helps us - we've done very well. We're going to need a good performance."

    I've got this feeling that we are going to play really well and win 4-0, i'd rather us be playing away than at home, we look solid and well organised when playing away.
