Channel 27, Football Channel.
Blackburn:
Friedel, Khizanisvili, Samba, Ooijer, Warnock, Bentley, Reid, Dunn, Pedersen, Roberts, Santa Cruz, Derbyshire, McCarthy, Brown, Mokoena, Tugay.
Manchester United :
Van der Sar, O'Shea, Hargreaves, Ferdinand, Pique, Brown, Evra, Ronaldo, Scholes, Carrick, Giggs, Tevez, Park, Rooney, Kuszczak, Anderson, Neville, Silvestre.
Ok, this being an away match isn't going to be easy... Blackbure is a tough team to beat at home... United may rest a few players cos of the away CL match with Barce coming up... Hope they can still pull this off without the first 11...
we'll need to win this one and take no chances..it'll also be an uplifting boost as we meet up barce in the CL next... with only 2 matches to win , i hope SAF will not take any chances.. full 3 points please..
we jus have to win this match and against chelsea...maybe a draw there would be fine and the title is ours
Rooney will be rested for sure!
i think rooney will be rested as well as ronaldo...then we will see the return of nani and park together anderson scholes with tevez alone and the defence most prob slivestre and ferdinand or maybe vidic will be back
Will be a physical battle, Fergie probably wont wanna risk Ronaldo/Scholes/Evra/Vidic picking up any knocks before the Barca match.
Got a feeling Rooney will still play though.
VDS
Brown Rio Pique Silvestre
Hargreaves Carrick Anderson Park
Rooney Tevez
i dunno
im buying for a 1-2
i not sure about bb's condition
I hope gary plays...
see the TNP page 60, Old Boys do Fergie a favour. hahaha
a 2-0 win for utd..rooney ronaldo to strike...
to be fair, at barca, we need a good result like a draw, best to be 1-1 or 2-2 or even better a win.
as such, I think the players got enough time to rest/recover barring any injuries.
we need the 3pts at blackburn and then the win to complete the title and of course break the stamford bridge record.
then it will be more shiok..
Man... Chelsea is now 2 points behind us only... This chelsea team quite resilient... We need to win this but its not going to be easy facing Blackburn away... and on top of this, I am quite sure Fergie will rotate his team again for this... so this will be a tricky match...
it'll take a miracle for man u to lose this title. 2 pts ahead with one game in hand. on top of that a big advantage in goal difference.

No need a miracle, just a lose at Chelsea and 2 draws with away teams like Blackburn and Wigan or West Ham an annoying team that seems to beat United either home or away regardless where they are on the table standings... Blackburn are a tough team at home and Wigan... need i say more, they have recently taken points off Arsenal and Chelsea... Beating Chelsea at the Bride has become more important now... But unfortunately they have Barcelona before and after which will cause some problems to resting players... So its still not so clear cut...
we need to win this game! every match is like a final for us now..
2 points behind us.. and us with a game in hand..winning this one is all most important, Saf knows that...and the team knows that.
please, hope we win this one through without any majot injuries.. blackburns are a pretty rough team... >.<
any official lines up folks?
hope nani gets a start though and vidic as well
Any place to watch it online?
