"With one eye on the trip, Villas-Boas rested captain John Terry completely and Frank Lampard started on the bench."
I couldn't hope more that those two play.
In all seriousness though, should be a good game, am more confident than usual that we can win it. If we do (and do it in style) that will be the biggest marker laid down yet by our boys to the rest of the league.

Good call - just saw that on the BBC though and didn't want to forget about it.
Hoping tonight will be a good game, any thoughts on the team we'll put out?

De gea
Fabio Smalling Jones Evra
Nani/Valencia Carrick Anderson Young/Park
Rooney Berbatov/Hernandez
something like that I would have thought.

Looks good to me. Would be good to see Valencia given the go-ahead tonight.

we'll be fine, full strength with a bit more experience in giggs and carrick in the centre. 2 big wins tonight and sunday and not only will we have set the standard but can give the 1st team playes a week off against leeds.

if Valencia comes back from injury the same way he did last season the benfica left back is going to have a tough game

It will be interesting.
I think a loss for your lot on the weekend will say a lot more than it would for Chelsea given the fact the media has awarded United and City the joint title this year.
So in that sense even though it's a home match the pressure will be on United to meet the expectation.
Good luck in the CL tonight.
