All 11 who started against Wigan have a shout (even without "sentiment" creeping in) but there must be room for Anderson and Nani in the 16 - neither was even on the bench on Sunday though Nani wasn't there for being a silly boy in the West Ham game. Fletcher and O'Shea, anybody? It's the midfield 4 where he's going to have the problem - they're all fit, all (I assume!) as keen as mustard and all with a role to play. Re Giggs, Judge Crinkley said "oh no not Giggs" when he came on. A fine judge he is too! Back to Moscow. My guess is we start with Giggs, Scholes, Carrick and Ronnie as the midfield 4, with Hargreaves and Anderson on the bench but very likely to play the final half hour. Hargreaves deserves a chance against Ballack. They have played aginst each other in Germany and Owen is a good penalty taker too - all that Germanic training won't have rubbed off yet! Thoughts on selection please. It is going to be very interesting to see who Fergie picks for Moscow.
