This could be tricky as last 2 games we have ended up with some strange formations but what do you think peeps.

I think

---------Robbo----------
Zoko---Daws- Chimb---Bale
Lennon-KPB-Hudd-Malbranque/Tanio
And would like to see Berbs and Bent up front

if i were to go with the players you have picked, i think i would rather have Chimbonda at RB and Zokora at CB.

If Jenas is fit then he would start for me, agree with Bent and Berbatov up front and i dont know why you even have Tainio in for Steed as a possible replecement.

Robinson
Chimbonda Dawson Kaboul Bale
Lennon Jenas Boetang Malbranque
Bent Berbatov

Subs; Cerny, Zokora, Hudd, Keane, Defoe

or if he is thinking about going 352

Robinson
Chimbonda Dawson Kaboul
Zokora
Lennon Jenas Malbranque Bale
Bent Berbatov

I dont think he'll drop Keane, and personally I don't think he deserves to be dropped.

Personally I think judging by Zokoras second half performance last night he needs to start in midfield as does Huddlestone his passing last night was very good. Lennon and Malbranque should start as the wide men, so that's the midfield sorted.

Not sure if Stalteris fit, if he is then I'd have him as right back. Bent and Defoe upfront with Berbatov and Keane rested to the bench to bring on second half if we aren't looking like winning or to kill off the game.

I dont think Keane has had a great last two games. Im not saying he will in the next game, but Bent streached the back line and made some good runs. I think its time we gave him a go up front.

What about JJ's first half?

So we have 2 partnerships upfront? i realy cant stand this, Berbatov and Keane like to drop off, Defoe and Bent like to get forward.

Keane and Berbatov can play together but i just dont think it works as well as playing one that drops off and one to push the back line.

Cerney, Lee, Tainio, Bent, Taarabt.



Yeah, as others have said, give Prince a start. He's shown in his cameo's that he's eager to impress, and realistically he isn't going to be able to do that untill he has at least 70 Prem minutes under his belt.​

If Kaboul is still out then put Zokora at CB and bring in Th'Hudd

Assuming JJ is injured. After last Sunday I'd rather see Zolora at CB than Kaboul atm.

when a player doesn't play, it doesn't neccessarily mean he's been 'dropped'

Ronaldo and Rooney are often on the bench when United play teams like Birmingham at home. There's no reason why Bent can't start in place of Keane against Birmingham on merit and rotation.

yeah but I think, for this game (like always) we need some one to show their passion, and commitment to the team, if he is not playing who else will add all the passion we need?

With JJ looking out, and Ledders/Tony G etc still missing, think Junde will go with the predictable below's side. But expect early changes depending on performance, were after Junde' has shown already, has no fear in gambling with subs to get the result.

Robbo
Lee Chimbonda Dawson Bale
l Lennon Huddlestone Zokora Malbranque
Berbatov Keane

As our defence looks so crap and Birmingham a crap team, I'm so tempted to try this lineup

Robbo
Chimbonda Bale
Lennon KPB Huddlestone Malbranque
Keane Berba Bent Defoe​

Cerney, Routledge, Tainio, Zokora, Taarabt.

:grin:
