Greenlizard0 Weekend Football Thread ** spoilers ** [17th - 22nd August 2012]

[Shamikebab]

Excited and nervous at the same time! Eager to see Kagawa and hopefully RvP at some point...less confident about the back four.

 

[utajoker]

A nice easy win for Manu please.

Goals from Rooney RVP and kagawa.

 

[Azza]

Very confident about tonight. All these new players have refreshed the squad and given us a renewed hope for the upcoming season.

 

[dmcg]

everton 5-0 for the lolz

 

[Cosimo]

everton 5-0 for the lolz

Even 1-0 would be quite amusing.

 

[Pighardia]

I think it will be a high-scoring game tonight, with Utd to win. I might go for 3-2 or 4-2

 

[Sycho]

Tony Hibbert 20 yard overhead kick will demoralise Man Utd tonight.

 

[Yas786]

Even 1-0 would be quite amusing.

Would be epic really...RVP to miss a bagful of chances, recreating his Euro 2012 form lol.

But tbh i cant see past Utd winning, question is by how much :/

Yeah, I'll be gutted if he rifles one in with his right foot from outside the box.

 

[No1newts]

Think it will be a lot closer than some pundits have predicted, should be good.


In other news Pardew charged by the FA, be surprised if he gets a big ban after coming out and apologising like he did. Probably 1 game.

Early team news is Carrick is at centre back and RVP starts up front with Rooney

Heard the same, I want to see how he sets up midfield.

 

[Accendo]

I had a feeling he'd chuck RVP straight in, could mean that Kagawa doesn't start but you never know.

 

[Bucket]

I'd imagine with RvP starting we won't be seeing Kagawa start.

I'd rather Van Persie came off the bench considering he's played very little football.

 

[Yas786]

Yeah, I'll be gutted if he rifles one in with his right foot from outside the box.

Lets hope he doesnt injure himself with all that effort trying to score a goal for Utd...would hate for you lot to end up with a £24mill crock

 

[DanH84]

I'm hoping for Kagawa to start tbh.

 

[noizeuk]

Today's CackAcca.

Man Utd
Bayern Munich
Galatasaray
Derry
St Patricks

Cack Returns = £18.67 from £2

 

[Robbo]

RvP starts on the bench.

 

[Rameses]

Early team news............RVP starts up front with Rooney

 

[Tom84]

Team news is in, I suspect we'll line up like;

---------------De Gea---------------
Valencia---Carrick---Vidic---Evra
Nani--Cleverley--Scholes--Kagawa
--------------Rooney
---------------Welbeck

Sky have us lining up 4-3-3 with Rooney wide though
