---------- Carrick ----- Scholes ----------
Evra --- Ferdinand --- Evans --- Rafael
------------------ De Gea ------------------
Although I admit that a formation with 3 central midfielders (like in many CL knockout games) might actually be the better choice ... we'll see. Fergie will choose the best strategy, as always.

Hernandez, can't play defense like Rooney can.. and his goal scoring has dried up.
Rafael, was at fault for two of the Everton goals. I was at OT last April to see them play Everton and while still quite young, he doesn't play the hard-nosed english way that I want in a big derby. He took a couple hard tackles from the Everton winger. Love his offense though.
I'm sure the ol gaffer is going to play the kid on the back wing though.
