NattyBlue 44 Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 As long as we win, I don't really mind who plays, would pref Essien not to play on the right though if Ivanfield plays....that doesn't workbut with Boss-winger at RB and Essien on rmf I wouldn't mind it at all, I'm going to the game, HOPE IT'S A GOOD DAY OUT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rambo 1,729 Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 Vidic is out, Van der Sar is out, Ronaldo/Tevez gone, seriously we shouldn't be losing this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NattyBlue 44 Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 That's what would be logical, depends on that all important starting XI and who plays on the right and left on that diamond to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLion. 21,491 Posted August 7, 2009 Author Share Posted August 7, 2009 Manchester United defender Nemanja Vidic will miss the start of the new Premier League season due to a calf injury.Vidic has been struggling with the problem during pre-season and is expected to be sidelined for up to another fortnight.The Serbia international will now sit out Sunday's Community Shield clash with Chelsea at Wembley and the following week's season opener at home to promoted Birmingham City.Fellow defenders Wes Brown and Gary Neville are also sidelined, while United boss Sir Alex Ferguson admits it will be at least eight weeks before veteran keeper Edwin van der Sar recovers from a broken finger."Everyone is fit apart from Wes, Vidic and Neville," said Ferguson."Gary has done a bit of training, and he is coming along fine. And I expect Wes to be fit for the Birmingham match."Vidic is another week or two away and Edwin's injury is a bad one. He's out for 8-10 weeks, of course. So my first selection dilemma for Sunday is in goal."Ferguson also confirmed that he will be treating the game with Chelsea, live on Sky Sports 2 & HD2, seriously and will not be using the fixture as an opportunity to work on his players' fitness.He added: "In the past I've treated the Community Shield as a barometer for fitness and giving players some minutes on the clock. But this year I'm not looking at it like that."All the players are at a good level fitness-wise and everyone should be able to give a good account of themselves. And when you play Chelsea, pride comes into it and the players want to win."From Sky.I'd imagine they'll play Rafael at right-back, with Evans partnering Ferdinand at centre-back, Evra on the left with Foster in goal.

Milan 17,957 Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 It looks like we'll be without Zhirkov as he has a knee problem. Ancelotti has just announced it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueLion. 21,491 Posted August 8, 2009 Author Share Posted August 8, 2009 That was to be expected since he and Ferreira are long-term absentees, unfortunately. Ferguson has said he intends to show respect to the competition and opposition, so expect a strong-looking United team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray. 217 Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 Yes I think Ferguson will take advantage and as you say have a strong team ready. We can and will win! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
