I'd put money on that being the starting 11.

[eastie]

I'd go with that too!

Villa 1 (Young 02mins)
Man Yoo 2 (Giggs 90+7mins, Rooney late Wednesday morning with Fergie still watch pointing having locked everyone in the ground)

Beeb website is showing Makoun as doubtful with a leg injury

Official site says that Gabby will be having a late fitness test.

I would like to see Bannan and Walker in the starting line up.

[The Situation]

No Albrighton? He tore Evra apart last time.

[DB]

No Albrighton? He tore Evra apart last time.

True, but who would you leave out?

[murgsy]

Friedel,
Cuellar, Collins, Dunne, Clark
Albrighton NRC Petrov Young
Gabby Bent

[JJ-AV]

Gabby has to play

[Fernando Partridge]

i'd like walker and albrighton .. bannan too not sure if Inspector Clouseau will risk it.
He likes gabby.
and seems to prefer king carlos for these types of games.

 

[alanclare]

One all, and our goal from Heskey.

[Fernando Partridge]

Yeah gabby rips vidic everytime !!
 remember no one gave us a chance in home game with hogg and bannan in the midddle !!

Relive that game here.
