Ok well Liverpool are out
Are we happy or sad? Happy because we have an easier task (if we go through) or sad because we wont get to face the theivin ****s (if we go through)?
Mate, Leverkusen ain't an easy task. Liverpool figured that out that hard 4-goals down your throat way!
But Fergie and the lads are used to this. They'll have the discipline not to look past Deportivo who are easily one of the five or ten best sides in the world at the moment. With United's recent history of defensive mishaps and an amazing offensive pairing of Tristan and Valeron, Deportivo is more than capable of leaving Old Trafford with a win.
The news that Nicky Butt may miss the game with migraines has me very worried about who we would fill that spot with. If we go with a 4-4-2, Scholes would naturally sit out to make room for Ole. But with Butt in doubt, Scholesy might be in. But, unfortunately, I don't think Scholes is up to the task of man-marking Valeron.
In this game, tomorrow, it's not our offense I'm worried about. It's our defense!
We could bring in Wes Brown and move Ronnie Johnsen up in to the DM role. Again, Scholes would be on the bench in a 4-4-2. Hmmm.... looks tough, but we should still squeak by.
