Manchester United vs Fulham [P]+[R]

This is my first match thread so pls give advice if I do anything wrong :p

This is the second time we face Fulham, after a sore 1-3 defeat in October. This match will be played at Loftus Road in Fulham on the Saturday 28th of February, 15:00. Fulham boss Chris Coleman is still in the hospital for an infection and will probably miss this clash, but despite being with him at the helm, his side defeated West Ham 3-0 in the FA Cup replay.

Sequences
Fulham - Failed to win in last 2 home matches.
Man U - 23 games since last away draw. No win in 2 recent matches.


Suspensions: Gary Neville (headbutt against McManaman vs City)


Probable lineup:

---------Saha---RVN-------
-----------Scholes-----------
Giggs--------------Ronaldo
------------Keane------------
Fortune-Wes--O'Shea-Phil
-----------Howard-----------

Bench: Carroll, Fletcher, Kleberson, Butt, Bellion


FULHAM XI (4-4-2, hammyend.com): van der Sar; Volz, Green, Knight, Goma; Legwinski, Davis, Petta, Malbranque; Boa Morte, McBride. Subs: Crossley, Pearce, Djetou, Inamoto, Hayles.

Players to look out for:
RVN - After such a disappointing display at Porto, expect him to work harder and clinch his chances.
Cristiano Ronaldo - Very fresh, save for a bit of jet lag. Only played 10 minutes against Porto. Expecting him to be a big factor in this match.
Brian McBride - Filled Saha's position well in Fulham, dangerous forward.
Sean Davis - In excellent form, will put up a good fight in battle for midfield.

Prediction - Man U to win 3-0. After being defeated by Boro, and drawing with Leeds, then losing again to Porto in the 1st Leg, something has to give. The Red Devils will play so offensively in this match that Fulham will be under pressure at all times.

Whoops, how did that get there?? I was thinking about Man U needing the 3pts from this game. And I thought Saha was injured or something :rolleyes:

I'll need a mod to change the FA to EPL, thanks.

Starting XI
Sorry to say that I'm not too optimistic about Saturday's game against Fulham. Fulham are a tough outfit at home and I'm taking nothing for granted this time round.
With our defence looking as frail as ever (well documented over the last few weeks) I think it's almost certain United will concede on Saturday. It all comes down to how well United play offensively, and that everyone plays in their correct and best position. Exciting game for Saha as well, let's hope he's got a point to prove to his old boss Coleman.
This is how I'd prefer United would line up against Fulham:

Howard

P.Neville ------------- Brown--------------O'Shea------------Fortune


Ronaldo-------------Keane--------------Scholes---------------Giggs


Saha--------------Van Nistelrooy


Subs: Carroll - Kleberson - Butt - Forlan - Solskjaer

I think Gaz suspension starts on Saturday, so that leaves him out of the lineup. And I'm not sure if I should pick Djemba-Djemba instead of Kleberson on the bench. But I'm opting with Klebe b'cause Butt is more similar to Djemba than Klebe.

Match Prediction:

3-2 to United. :rolleyes:

Coleman won't be there...he's sick in the the hospital.

If I was Saha i'd be more worried about madman Bocanegra than anything.

Starting XI
we had what, 20 shots on target against Fulham and didn't score a single darn ass goal.
we have a tight defence.
which is why the score was 0-0, imo.

but for Man Utd, it's a different matter..
their defense is.. well, you know.
so i expect Fulham to score goals.

2-1 Fulham.
