Team News
Man Utd
Swansea
- Manchester United suffered only their fifth defeat of the season in the 1-0 loss to Chelsea in what conspired to be Sir Alex Ferguson's penultimate game in charge of the club at Old Trafford.
- The veteran manager announced his decision to retire at the end of the season, but will be without defender Rafael following his sending off in the defeat to the Blues.
- Ferguson will also be without the services of Ashley Young, Danny Welbeck and Darren Fletcher, meaning Ryan Giggs and Antonio Valencia are likely to be charged with providing the width in the United attack.
- Michael Carrick could return to the starting XI, while Wayne Rooney will be expected to start from the bench following reports of a fresh transfer request being handed in, meaning Tom Cleverley will retain his spot behind Robin van Persie.
- Swansea City's 3-2 win over Wigan Athletic on Tuesday was only their first in eight games and all but condemned the Latics to relegation.
- Michel Vorm was stretchered off with a head injury during the win and Gerhard Tremmel is expected to replace the Dutchman in the Swansea goal.
- Chico Flores has an arm injury and looks set to miss out the trip to Old Trafford, while Michu and Roland Lamah are both sidelined with a hamstring problem.
- Ki Sung-Yueng is a doubt and is likely not going to be risked for the encounter, while Itay Shechter and Dwight Tiendalli look set to retain a starting berth following their impressive performance on Tuesday night.
it was a 4-3-3 anyway
I dont think Javier Hernández and Van Persie is playing AMC and FW respectively. Their positions should be switched.
Two legend retires ,very sad day!!! The Best manager of all time and the best english player... We are going to win this one for sure!!!
No way MU are losing this, unless all their players are in tears because of Fergie retiring. 2-0
3:0
Michu <-Hamstring injury Subbed off in 4/5 game with Man City due to problem. Michael Laudrup admitted post-match he is likely to miss the rest of the season. 04/05/2013 (not sure, I just read this)
CHAMPIONS... but hope Michu scores.
