Out of everything if i was in your position tonight first game played @ home id prefer a strong defence. Just for the fact if you can keep a clean sheet then your chances away are much better.

Now that your whole normal back line is out i see keeping a clean sheet a non starter, if you concede more than 2 @ home without no reply tonight, id say your out.

Thank **** Benitez has used the rotation policy and the fact we do have 2 players now near enough to cover each position. Not the best players in world but hardworking.

As ive said before your actual bench players and fringe team players arent really up too much and it says alot about a team like Manchester United having to resort to the likes of Fletcher and O'Shea playing right back and left back.

Why Fergie never signed anybody in the Jan transfer is ****ing anyones guess...
