What was expected. Good idea to bring in Jones for this game. We might need his physical presence for set pieces.

no scholes? thats the first time this year! Giggsy to lead the way. Imagine Nani will come on at around the 70th min mark.

20!

hoped to see a reaction from SAF regarding Young.
A win tonight will be a significant step towards 20.
Roll on,

Is the united line up starting to get a bit predictable. Couple of seasons ago il be ecstatic if igot 6 out of the 11 right. Now its easy to predict

Then again why change a winning team

Lets hope we get a chance to unleash the pog tonight!!!

I am expecting a win, but it could be cagy until the first goal.

They play essentially a back 5 morphing into a bake 9.
They were unlucky at Chelsea and will be playing for their lives.

But history is on our side. Martinez led Wigan has never scored on us in any competition and
we have put 21 past them in 5 games with him at the helm.

Last game: Dec 26 2011 United 5 - 0 Wigan
Last away: Feb 26 2011 Wigan 0 - 4 MU

More of that please!

Mancini phone a friend.

Ring ring

Hello?

Hello who dis?

This is Spock

Spock issa Roberto I needa help no?

Mr. Roberto, I understand you’re having difficulty with the warp drive. How much time do you require for repair?

Issa warp drive gone no? Issa United take it, what to do?

Mr. Roberto, the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the one.

Issa no one love me Spock?

Mr. Roberto, OT is the final frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Manchester United. There ongoing mission: to explore strange new tactics, to seek out new forms to win and new ways to beat you and Barca A; to boldly go where no one has gone before.

Issa mean what Spock?

Live long and prosper

Without city.

Don't want to see Wigan go down. Wigan 0 Utd 1/2 please ... ;)

Pogba on bench interesting.. just read earlier that his agent was dusting off the deal to Juventus- and that's why he hasn't been in our first team squad but wait... there he is as a sub. Just shows how much the media really now.. it's a guessing game all this transfer talk.

Sir Alex not taking any risk. Wigan have been playing well, just hope Giggs have one of his better games. He has been poor in the middle for a few games

Mark Froggatt points out:
Tonight is the ninth consecutive PL match that De Gea, Evans and Ferdinand have started together. The last five yielded clean sheets.

Close to what I was expecting, would have preferred others in certain positions but I have faith in all United players, never bag anyone un-neccessarily.
! - 0 to us will do. If Wigan actually come out to play some sort of attacking football it could be interesting.

Gday Zibbie

Thank you very much I haven't checked back I'm sure the feedback would have been great!

I also worry when Giiggsy is playing. I've been very critical of his distribution and also chasing back and defending for a few years now. But he does put some nice thru balls in for the strikers and also makes some decent runs still.

I wish Scott presents the line up in a proper visual than just text.
I can make a Photoshop template if you want Scott.

I read a stat that Giggs always have a better games against Wigan. I believe it's Giggs but I could be wrong.

disgaceful in the manner we lost. no direction, no inspiration, no points. all respect to wigan, who i really hope beat the drop, but tonight we got found out after playing too many jammy late wins recently and too many jammy wins all season . we will win the pl but changes must be made before next season or we will get found out again, with more lasting results than this season
