Arsenal to get tanked again this weekend...not saying we lose 8-2 like last time but i dont think with our injuries in our defence we are going to get a result...best i can hope for is a draw and a minor miracle if we beat Utd.

But losing our last 2 games to teams we should have beaten means we have lost so much ground now and getting into the top 4 is going to be nothing short of a miracle if anything.

Hoping that Henry bags a goal though....but i see another loss, 3rd in a row for us :(
 
No messing about playing 4-4-2 please Fergie, 4-3-3/4-5-1 we know it works against them and 3 points is a must once Spurs fold to City ;)

-------------Lindegaard-------------
Rafael---Smalling---Ferdinand---Evra
------Carrick----Giggs-----Jones-----
Valencia-------Rooney-------Nani

Subs: De Gea, Evans, Fryers, Scholes, Park, Welbeck, Hernandez

I would be tempted to swap Carrick and Jones (because we know Raf and Valencia will bomb forward, which would allow Jones to drop in to the hole if needed , and Carrick seems more comfortable on the left also)

From a team though absolutely spot on / although Ive heard rumblings of Evans at CB and Smalling at FB (not sure who is more fit, Evans or Raf)

Indeed. Off to this one. Always tough away at CC but that depends on which Fulham turns up. Hopefully the side that got beat 3-1 away at Blackburn.

Hope Cabaye is fit. I'd take a point but I can see us edging out a 2-1 win.
 
Early reports indicating Rio is out after breaking down on Thusday with further back issues (could well be long - term absentee given similar occurances in the past)
Dont think SAF would risk relative inexperience of Jones / Smalling as the Centre Half pairing - so more like Evans / Smalling with Raf as RB leaving Jones to supply energy in midfield
 
If that were true then one would suspect Fergie would have mentioned it in his press conference and to the best of my knowledge that rumour is from goal.com :o

could be a close one methinks.

if spurs approach the city game in a good state of mind and get out of the blocks quickly, there's a good chance they wont take us to pieces. need big performances from everyone but mainly parker and kaboul. no manu is a blow but hopefully defoe can step up.

if city get into their stride we could be in for another drubbing.
 
Hoping for 3 points at home against Watford. We still unbeaten at home in the league and with great away wins at Millwall and Wolves, I'm expecting a good solid performance.

not actually always true - Im sure he left out someone from the "sick list" in his press conference recently and only advised why that player missed the game after it was finished.

He doesnt always give "new" injury doubts information as soon as he knows them

He made a point of saying how the injuries are clearing up, why would he say that if Rio had just been ruled out for what your source says a long time?
 
Would love to get a point from Chelsea, as long as they keep misfiring upfront, we're in with a chance. Hopefully we can grab a couple of goals
 
Chelsea team: Cech, Bosingwa, Luiz, Terry, Cole, Ramires, Lampard, Meireles, Sturridge, Torres, Mata.

Subs: Turnbull, Ivanovic, Essien, Romeu, Malouda, Lukaku, Bertrand.

Gary Cahill not starting today.
 
Norwich: Ruddy, Martin, Whitbread, Ayala, Naughton, Fox, Johnson, Pilkington, Surman, Morison, Holt.
Subs: Steer, Drury, Crofts, Jackson, Hoolahan, Bennett, Wilbraham.

Holty hatrick!!

in general they are - Smalling is back, Raf is supposed to be back, Jones is, Cleverley is nearly back (or clearing up) - not sure about Welbeck....plus its not exactly as though Rio 's back problem is anything new, he has had it for 2 or 3 seasons

Early reports are a notoriously bad source, and thats exactly why I said exactly those words - but its also true SAF doesnt always reveal everything at his press conferences before a particular game
