Rooney and Evra are banned from this one due to maximum yellow cards, Elano and Corluka are out for City with the same suspensions.

We should win this though, 3-0 United.

 

[Andreas_svan]

I think 2-1. But this time their form gotta be good.

 

[The_Red_Prince]

its essential that we win this match.We looked like a different team at white hart lane and we need to get back on form

CB: Rio Ferdinand

LB: John O'Shea

RW: Cristiano Ronaldo
CM: Anderson Oliveira

That team is far too attacking, and is saha fit?

 

[akash_reds]

with evra & rooney missing it will be tough....but i think we will win it 2-1....

 

[Solsk]

Rooneys been off-form recently and i thought Evra was shocking v Spurs. Never-the-less they are still big misses for us, but we should be able to cope.

 

[32_Mame_Diouf]

It will be a hard game, but it will be 2-0 as i will score 1 and My good friend Anderson will score the other

 

[alto10]

think we will win 2-0 tevez and scholes to score

 

[DazMUFC]

I really fancy us to bounce back with a comfortable win here, and its the perfect game to do just that, I don't think Rooney being out will be to much of a problem, Put Ronaldo further forward up front like against Portsmouth and put Park on the wing, we will win, by how much i don't know. But i will go with


Man United 3-0 Man City

Ronaldo, Tevez, Nani.

 

[Jazz 16]

This will be an emotional day and the emphasis wont be entirely on what happens on the pitch.
It would be a great testament and tribute to win for the Busby Babes that lost their lives.
It will be strange to see them wearing the retro kit but I hope they can do it for the great team of the 50's.
For most this will be a very bitter/sweet day regardless of the final score.
I just hope its a day to remember for all the right reasons.

 

[RN10]

Im thinking 3-0 united, hopefully anderson and nani can get on the scoresheet. But i think it will be ronaldo and tevez to score Shame about rooney and evra tho, two vip's

[Ignatius]

Well.. I hope Man Utd wins for The Busby babes, to remember them

R.I.P.

 

[The_Red_Prince]

'We'll win.in fact,i feel like it will have a positive influence on the players to remember the team was the greatest to ever grace a football pitch

 

[scott 4 evra]

...............van der saar
brown.... ferdinand..... vidic..... evra
ronaldo.... scholes... anderson ...nani
...............tevez ....saha.................

quit the crap fergie and pick anderson. lets all be honest he's better than hargreeves, he slows down the play too often. and to whoever said it was too attackin look at the 2 games scholes and anderson wer in the centre. wigan at home villa away. 4-0 and 4-0. anderson has been the best centre mid bar fabregas this season and fergie's still reluctant to put him in. i know he's only 19 but the boy is a class act.

 

[Manchester Boy_nWo]

My United-line:

VDS

Brown Ferdinand Vidic O'Shea

Ronaldo Scholes Anderson Giggs(C)

Tevez Saha​

SUBS:Kuszczak, Pique, Carrick, Hargreaves, Flecther

I think we'll win 3-0. Tevez and Ronaldo and Giggs.

 

[Toybos]

O'shea
O'shea O'shea O'shea O'shea
O'shea O'shea O'shea O'shea
O'shea O'shea

Subs: O'shea,O'shea,O'shea,O'shea,O'shea

That should be the line up and i think well run away with it...8-0
