VS
Manchester United v Wigan
Wigan are very much a team currently on form... So this match cannot take it easy...
Wigan have now won six of their last seven league games.
And the Latics also celebrated their first victory over Tottenham in nine attempts.
Must win this to over take Chelsea first then target Pool later...
hope tevez start for this game!
I'm a fortune-teller, this match will be Man 2 - 0 Wigan Athletic. Bet it!
If Man played liked this, i fear this club will be obmitted from European Champion League for being too strong for the development of European football.
wtfbbqfish u talkin sia..
tony dinh u need help with yrself
4-0, thats what im buying
What do you mean, Sienx? I'm a crazy fan of MU when Premier League was away from European football!

Manchester United are without Patrice Evra (foot) and fellow defenders Rio Ferdinand (back) and Wes Brown, who is nearing a return after ankle surgery.
John O'Shea is expected to come in for Evra, while Jonny Evans should continue in place of Ferdinand.
Wigan manager Steve Bruce is expected to name an unchanged side. The Latics sealed their sixth win in seven league games with a last-minute goal against Spurs, and the 11 players who started should keep their places.
Wigan manager Steve Bruce:
"They are a privilege to manage at the moment. They have the bit between their teeth and are having a right good crack at it. "I hope they can take it into tomorrow because we are going to need it. We are in for an absolutely unbelievably tough game but one which we are looking forward to.
"It is the one where you are going to get tested to the hilt. I've witnessed teams who have been beaten before they even go there because they show far too much respect. "You just hope our boys can play to their maximum, enjoy themselves, take them on and make sure we don't leave anything in the dressing room.
"With the run we are on at the moment I hope it is the right time. I hope we go on to the biggest stage of all and show it is not a fluke Wigan are in the top 10."
Wigan have lost all seven meetings with Manchester United in the league and Carling Cup final with an aggregate of 22-3. The Latics have conceded more Premier League goals to United than to any other club (18).

Phwah! steve bennet, ho seh liao.
I like to think 4-0, Tevez hat trick
I am happy with a 1-0 for if we can convert the 2 games in hand into wins, i bet it was drive some spanish up the wall even further..
I don't think this will easy considering Wigan is also on some form at the moment.
Alas, Evra is out for it effectively, robs MU of left side attack..
With Dimitar, MU is now even more destructive than Eric's MU. "Three-Lung" Park is a terrible hurrican indeed. With his presence from the beginning, MU has never been finishing without achieving!
anyone staying up?
Now going to sleep for 3 hrs then wake up to watch cos this will be a good game... Wigan are an attacking side so I think they won't play so defensive like some other sides... gd nite everyone... Lets all hope United win again tonight...
I go sleep 1st, just came home from workie.
me too. see u guys later.
