Blackburn V Man Utd Match Preview and Rio's School play

The weekend is fast approaching and another Premiership game beckons. Chelsea walloped Aston Villa 4-0 last night so they will almost definitely be up for it against Watford. It has been a week of contrasting fortunes for the two title challengers. Firstly we lose a game to a struggling Championship sides, whilst Chelsea win against a sturdy Aston Villa guided by the wise man that is Martin O’Neil.

It is time for United to put the week behind them. We must now focus on the premiership and a result against Blackburn is key. The two results against Copenhagen and Southend demonstrate how vital Giggs, Scholes and Neville are to our success. With the three wise heads on the field we never look like loosing, take them away and we look shaky, like a team that has lost our way.

That is not to say that the players we have are no good. It is more a point that the younger players need wise leaders to guide them to victory. Players like Scholes, Giggs and Neville bring about a confidence and desire such is their experience of playing at the top level.

Likely line-up and predicted scores from the forum are as follows:
Robroonaldo & Insanelogic:

VDS

Nev - Rio - Vidic - Evra

Ronny - Carrick - Scholes - giggs

Rooney - Saha

2 - 0 to United. (Rooney – Giggs)

I have to agree with this line-up, it is by far our best starting line-up and the one that will give us the best chance against our bogey team!

Finally, thank you to Insanelogic for finding this video. It’s Rio Ferdinand in his school play. Simply class, why he didn’t take up an acting career is beyond me!

you're right about the three wise men. wish they could stay fit.

what's the news with GH? has evra stolen his spot? i like the idea of monster and GH and neville crunching people like walnuts at xmas, with rio making strikers look like tony adams. but maybe evra's got that flair that SAL always looks for.

what about news of interest in freddy adu? what i've seen of him in the MLS isn't very encouraging - he doesn't seem to have any idea of playing in a team, but maybe SAL thinks he can mould him....in fact i'm sure he can, but whether adu has the deep talent is yet to be seen.

blackburn....a special bogey just for man u! i agree with the posted line up.
